3:38 a FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER.
Electro........
BOOOOOOMM XD
What's so funny about FBR? 🙄🤔
@@pararera6394 watch electroBoom video on FBR
THE MOTHER OF ALL FULLEST BRIGE RECTIFIRES!
@@kruemmelbande5078 Which video was that again? I can't find it xD
It feels great when I understood what a full bridge rectifier is. Thanks to Mehdi Sadaghdar (ElectroBoom). Thank you for you work, both of you.
thank you for using metric system....this help many people...
Actually, some of us would really like standard units. All this metric stuff is quite confusing because every number has to be converted before it makes sense.
lochinvar00465 "standard" :D
Well most of countries in the world uses Metric system not stupid Imperial system with those BS Fahrenheit and shits
It would be horrifically expensive to convert over in the US. Literally everything is the Standard ( Imperial ) and it would require too much money.
@@RizLazey Yes the U.S uses the imperial system... but is it BS? No. It's worked for us this long, and i can assure you that 90% of engineers here use the metric system when doing designs or research.
The thumbnail looks like you've made a sonic screwdriver.
WTF? :D

Ah okay. Never watched this series.

That might well be the case. :)
Reminder to fellow whovian.
Tomorrow is Christmas.
So.
Don't forget to subscribe to the official doctor who TH-cam channel.
I really like this circuit, it uses lots of concepts of inductance, AC and DC, capacitance, and much more. It's a really nice beginning circuit to reinforce your knowledge upon basic electronic concepts.
I always love your video endings. They encourage myself and others to keep on creating things. I love your videos, hell we all do. Keep uploading them!!
this is so interesting! the stuff you make looks so simple but then you start with the formulas and my head goes blank.. lol, but i love to watch the outcome of your projects, keep it up!
One thing a lot of channels with experiments about inductors fail to mention is that your wire can't be ferromagnetic. I had a lot of confusion and frustration when I tried to make my first inductor coil out of steel wire and all that happened was the magnet stuck to it. Enamel coated wire doesn't seem a common thing to be able to find at any places I've checked, surplus hardware stores, department stores like Walmart and the equivalent etc. And I had a lot of trouble winding coils with stranded copper wire because it doesn't hold its shape it all, so I went with the only solid core wire I could find, which was steel. I'm not even sure it was meant for electronics since it was found with a variety of fasteners and such. So partly my fault, but partly because not a single thing I've ever read about making these or how they work mentions anything about how the wire NEEDS to be copper. Or at least not magnetic.
A lot of people don't think steel wire for electrical coil component...
You are searching plumbing tools from grocery shelf
@@jamesmillerjo You are responding to a 4 year old comment that is no longer relevant. But thanks for the non-advice anyways. It was really helpful.
Been planning on a kinetic charge phone case and I stumbled across this video. I think this video would help quite a bit with planning and design, thank you so much!
thats one nifty little idea for an emergency torch, keep up the good work! you're videos are thoroughly entertaining and quite informative.
Great project as always. I would just use extended pipe as housing for all components (by placing one ending cork deeper by an inch) and closing the resulting space with additional one, with only led protruding through it. it would survive camping use much easier.
Great video as always! love your stuff, I learn so much!
Thanks for this awesome idea Scott
Even the crudeness of the final result looks beautiful.
This project will save humanity ;)
Nice project as always. The top section looks like artwork. :D
Thanks bro your videos are just fantastic . Keep up the good work. All the best for future videos!
You could have used two magnets at the ends such that it they repel the inside magnet. conservation of energia
Now that sir is an amazingly fantastic idea. i love it. i;m going to do this in mine. hell yea
dude thats genius!
but over time the magnets could weaken because of their constantly repelling fields
It's silent and won't bump onto the end of the pipe, you're a genius
In "Neodymium magnets" dictionary there is no word such "Time".
The brightness is proportional on how skilled are you to that particular moution
Good video. Thanks for putting it together.
bro you're awesome keep up the good work.
thanks for you time.
Your videos are great!
Dear GreatScott sir, this was fun, thanks for the vid. - pierre from New Mexico
Great, Scott !
Dude. I fricken love your videos! I honestly get so excited when I see that you've uploaded a new video!!
Your videos help me a lot in my own projects. Thanks a lot man
You're welcome
No idea what most of this means but I still love this channel. Its great.
Love your videos.
God your videos are awesome
So simple and so effective.
what a neat project. great idea.
a better housing for this great emergency flash light would have been on my wish list.
Looks a lot like an alpha version in the current state.
Fantastic work. man
hey GreatScott, try holding the soldering iron on the points for less time. I've found that by quickening the speed, it makes the solder harden quicker, and that way you don't have to worry about things coming undone as much. Just thought I'd share my technique. Great video though!!
Nice project!
@3:16 I always keep with me self adhesive rubber stand off parts from dollar store or Walmart. Also I could use the self adhesive chair leg pads that prevents friction between chair legs and the floor. In Canada, Dollarama store has tons of such parts at very low cost.
This is the lamp you been practising your entire youth for!!
Go build it!
So enLIGHTening!
I like your vids they help me a lot in electronics thanks.
Excellent innovative ideas
this was really cool!
really awesome video
What an idea
I am now having fan of you
very good your videos and this congratulations .. very same gem ...
Great ! This principle could be used to make a wrist (or ankle) phone charger that would work while running.
wow ! Simply awesome GREETINGS FROM INDIA 😊
,amazing sir.. this will help more people
thats really awesome..
just shake and illuminate
Awesome project! :D
good job!
great scott,

Good Job,
but you dont have to remove the protective layer of the copper whire with sandpaper, you can also heat it up with solder, and it will be smoked away easyly.
Great project/video, even though not as clean result as usually. I have a question if you make a second coild on the pipe amd then connect it in parallel to the first one, wouldn't you charge the capacitor much faster?
that is really amazing and useful
good job sir.................keep going on.....
I liked this video because it shows a way to generate electricity anywhere even if in small quantities sufficient only to power small circuits. Therefore, I would ask if in one of your next videos you can build a low-price permanent magnet generator that produces 5- 10 watts. I think it could be a nice project, the generator may be operated with a crank or water or wind turbine and can be usefull in emergency situation or for power devices like smartphone where there isn' t electricity . You might explain how make the coils and how the output current must be menaged.
I'm sorry for my english.
great job, you're awesome;)
Please do a video on comparing high-side vs low-side drivers! I'm trying to figure out why I should be using a low-side driver to energize a relay coil.
u really like the glue.. nice video...
Nice wrist action
Yet another excellent video. Thumbs up if you think GreatScott! is just awesome! Such an inspiration !
You have a great channel, as well.
Perhaps instead of stacking magnets together like on the video, you could force them with glue so that they repeal each other also with some distance between them. This way magnetic flux would change faster in respect to the coil. I am assuming that poles of your magnets are on top and bottom of the cylinder. I wonder if this could be improvement to your design.
And to soften the impact at ends of tube, maybe another magnets with opposite polarity to the main one?
Thanks for the vid!
Excellent!
Great Scott - his hand movements are so smooth - where could he have mastered such perfection - a master indeed of the back and forth motions i see !
i hope you make some high voltage projects in your next videos
thank you !:-)
So cool!
I live in Wisconsin. There was a very bad storm yesterday, and many trees were down in my neighborhood. A few thousand without power in my city. My house lost power for 2 hours and 15 minutes. This would be very useful! I have a similar circuit based off a printer motor, but my 100uF cap only makes it light up for about 3 seconds.
A motor from a printer
What was the Voltage in the Cap? If you are charging it to way less Voltage than it's rated the capacity is going to be reduced significantly from what it says.
+GreatScott! Did you choose the length of the coil on the pipe (the measurements at 1:08) for any particular reason, other than ease of winding? Would you not achieve higher pulse width if the coil were longer? Does the magnet need to completely exit the coil at each end?
Neat project that has lots of potential to teach many concepts, and is accessible to any hobbyist. Thanks!
So if you wanted to make the light shine for a longer period of time what would you do? Add more capacitors in series and a bigger magnet and more turns of wire?? Great video. Subbed on the strength of this one.
I think that you should do a new series called Oscilloscope Basics.It
would be helpful for many people.Also please continue the Electronic
Basics videos!!
You are genius.
Thats a handy little contraption to have about :D
@GreatScott do you really need to get back to the *starting point* in winding the secondary coils?
You are my favorite youtuber.
Thank you :-)
you da man...I rate your channel ********** stars
Thank you
great idea
wow talk about to much time on your hands !!!
amazing really really amazing if you guys get in to the movies or I say when you get in to movies you guy do something special
with a camera
An ideal project for onanists! Greta idea, by the way, GreatScott -- I love your videos.
What about a capacitor sculpture or a transistor sculpture? That would be beautiful!
in sted of a toob can you use a toris or donut and wind the copper around that will it work ?
Great job! If you put a spring to the both sides, would help friction, less force and more power per shaking. Am I wrong?
Will build it. PVC end cap can be used to secure the magnets.. Suggestion. Good video.
Very nice project! What if you used a larger diameter magnet, coil and tube? Would you get more energy with less mechanical motion? Might be more mechanical work, I believe.
The shaking part look fun..
Sure. I also have a new video:
coil gun new test
th-cam.com/video/TMsLIAmuuO0/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/0nMyv83_ycM/w-d-xo.html
you should compare it to a manufactured shaking torch and see if its better
Hey, super nice project. Thanks for sharing. Does it matter the material of the tube to make this work?
Nice movement xD
Is there a way to wind coils neater? How do they do it when transformers are manufactured? Great looking project. It would be nice in some type of case.
+GreatScott! Great video man I like this project a lot, Michael Faradays law of electromagnetic induction always seems to amaze me! :-)
I made a smaller version of this, Faraday's Shaking torch buddy but it was taking a lot of Time to charge up even my 1.5 Farad as well 🤷🏻. So I am now thinking of making a 2nd version of my, Mini Shaking torch with Supercapacitor of about 0.1 Farad only ✅🙂.
you should create a homepage for your projects. if you have time for sure.. ;) it would make things like showing additional pictures, schematics and descriptions easier. :)
I use Instructables for that.
So awesome
I wonder if using a thinner wall pvc or other material and more coils would improve the performance much ?
Very Cool
Can you provide specifications for that copper wire? I have noticed you use that to make inductors, transformers and other coils a lot. Thanks
installing a spring on both sides of the pipes can be helpful.....
Hey, Scott liked your video about triacs and I was wandering what is easier to control steplessly AC or DC. Could you also please make a video on wave packet control ( Wellenpaketsteuerung )? Grüße
Great Keep It Up
Please explain about the power-saving tools or how to create power electricity saving tools for household electric
That's some impressive... Eh... 'shaking skills' you have there ;-)
I tried to do something similar a while back. I wanted to mount the magnet on my bike wheel spokes and use the electricity stored in the cap to light up leds in the front and back. i could never get the magnet and copper windings to work right, though.
