- This is a totally amazing device! So many purposes. It contains a camping lantern, a flashlight and a fan. It also works as a USB power bank to recharge your phone. It's rechargeable and it can be charged using a solar panel or a mains plug...... But wait !!! There's mains voltage in my iPhone metal body !!! The problem is that the circuitry is not isolated from the mains. Including the USB port. This is one of the most insanely dangerous products I've seen so far.
WARNING:
-Do not purchase or use this lantern.
-Never do what you see in this video.
-Risk of electric shock and death.
-Risk of fire.
-You do everything at your own risk and responsibility.

"there is no fuse or resistors, but it's normal in China" LOL)))))
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
More burnt devices mean more sold devices later.
Those capacitor is the mean fuse and resistor connected both
Ignorant dangerous chinese jerks&dickshit😊
"Hey boss, the Quality Control guy was just electrocuted by that new lantern!"
"Ship it."
😂😂🤣🤣
-Hey guys, the lantern you're selling has mains in the USB!
-Come on, nobody was complaining yet :).
"Hey boss, the Quality Control guy was just electrocuted by that new lantern!"
"What Quality Control?"

I don’t get why people pick so much on his pronunciation. I am thoroughly enjoying his videos. Loads educational.
Mostly kids it's sad
Because it sounds like Apu. haa haa
SuperMan Steel Apu sounds Indian. This man has a different accent. You probably don’t even know any other language than English, so learn a new language without having an accent before you criticise someone else’s.
this is not bridge rectifier, it is FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER, not a dumb single diode rectifier
Found an ElectroBOOM fan.
+ falls apart now (no you took a screw out)
FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIA!!
FOOL BRIDGG RECTIFAIAA
Ess Ess yep we are
"My phone is full mains voltage, *waits a moment* THATS NIIICE"- your videos are awesome, you just gained another sub, lol stay safe tho
It is as subtle way how Chinese government are fighting with overpopulation.
"Full mains voltage...that's niiiiiiiiiiiiice". Love it!
That fan might be helpful in starting a campfire maybe... but the way that thing is wired, it can probably become its own campfire lol
Pinky Mixology most likely

Well they have mislabeled the USB Port... should have been the Fire Starter Port. xD
Chinese trojan horse
Nope, it is for population control. Dumb ones are electrocuted.
His accent is amazing, the way he pronounces words 💯🙈👍

Hey Diode, with your humor (sometime absurdly comic) you always make my day. Just like The Good Soldier Švejk .There is a comedian lost deep inside you. Keep up making these videos because the World is just better because of them/You.
Good jokes + accent make the funniest combination.
looks like a Dalek lamp from Clive
Clive's one didn't have a fan & was gold... still if this sort of thing is allowed in China they must have no safety standards at all... or the manufacturer is ignoring safety standards for export.
Non-standard size plugs...extra thin wires & unfused plugs for UK sockets... the catalogue of chinese electrical safety standards breaches grows.
Correct, China don't have any safety standards. When building very tall sky scrapers, workmen routinely work at the edge of the top floor without any harnesses of any kind. Just watch any sky scraper documentary.
Actually electrical standards were equalised in China to European Union in 2006. So this is not legal to sell to consumer in China, and they can pretty much chop your head off if you do.
However, it can be exported and it's even legal to sell in some various poorer Asian, African and South American countries.
There are a few more possibilities. Like new old stock of an item made before 2006, or some nearly accidental small batch shed made item, that has been found to be illegal after it was made, so someone stepped forward to resolve the issue and recycle the hot goods for free... by selling them abroad.
sorry but clive's one was also blue. it's the same thing
Indeed the same Dalek lamp variation. They both use the same circuit, only casings are slightly different.
Whats scary is, if you plugged it in, you can get electrecuted across all parts of your body. With the full effect of a socket wall. Experience electrecution live by plugging it in. No forks needed
*Tell us ..*
*Your iPhone is working or not ?*
well if you put that lamp hanging near you maybe you are on a bath tub in the backyard is night you want a lamp and some cold air so you bring your amazing lamp but then you use a usb cord extension for a small radio mp3 player etc, you think what is the problem is just 5 volts and i want hear my small radio but is uncharged, well my lamp will charge my 5volt radio,you think you are safe 5volts are harmless right i m using a usb cable and in not even near the lamp far away of 120v-220v, but you try disconnect your small radio and then you feel something is not ok, you get electrocuted because a bad designed circuit maybe you survive or maybe you don't because the true you touched 120/220v
yes i am curious too, if it damaged phone or not, its crazy running 230V over phone to bulb lol
@@taxik007 Probably it's not took demage, this is a reference question, the voltage between the USB "ground" and +5VDC terminal is something around this voltage, but the voltage between this "ground" and the real ground is the fucking 230 VAC
How did you find out that theres mains at the usb port? You usually just plug something in and handle it without care.
I was wondering the same thing! Maybe he got shocked off screen haha
Nice extra wakeup shock is waiting.... :)
Could work for me, to stop me from somehow blindly turning off my phone alarm while still asleep and going back to bed XD.
Sometimes i accidentally step on a USB extension cord i have plugged to my PC and get a really nasty shock (feels like stepping on a knife) that always wakes me right up.
Mylity 66, sounds like you have no earth to your p.c, if it isn't present the mains filter in the p.c will put half mains voltage on the case (and usb cables).
Yeah i don't have the best grounding on that socket (its basically connected to the socket metal housing making ground contact with the wall, i know i know, thats garbage to say the least) but here is something i've noticed, the PSU i had before had 3 times less amperage on the outputs, i would still get shocked with the case and USB sockets but it was more like a gentle shake, didn't hurt at all, like a tickle. After i installed my new PSU (62A on the +12 rail is all i can remember from the label) the shocks can be fairly painful, but then again, nowhere near as bad as touching 110v AC directly.
What do you gather from that?
And yeah, i will ground the socket eventually, i do have proper copper wire grounding in my house i just don't have the length of cable necessary to do the job quite yet.
Mylity 66, i don't think the shock level is anything to do with the power rating of the psu.
There is a mains filter connected to the psu mains input socket, it's to stop interference from the psu getting into the mains wiring of your house.
Inside filter there are two identical capacitors connected to (earth), one goes to mains (Live) and the other goes to mains (Negative).
If you have no earth to the psu/computer case the capacitors will feed 1/2 of the mains voltage to the case, that's because the case should have been earth and safe.
If the live capacitor fails and goes short, you get (FULL MAINS VOLTAGE) on the case of your computer and any item connected to it.
(That earth is important, your life is important.)
Worst shock i've gotten was one of those cheap-ass mains plug soldering iron (just the iron with a mains plug on the end of the cord), it was of unfortunately low quality and one day i plugged it to socket and the thing literally exploded, all the copper from the wire just jumped out of the insulation and wrapped itself around my arm.
I was there a good 50 seconds before my girlfriend kicked me from the side. I had jokingly told her before to do that if she saw me getting electrocuted since there were no breakers in her house, just a big switch behind a locked box.
Lessons learned:
*Plug-in soldering irons are a liability.
*Always have a switched, surge protected, fused power bar for your tools. Plug in first, switch later.
*Never use powered tools when alone.
*Instruct those around you what to do if something bad happens.
*Mains hurt when they don't kill. i got lucky.
*install grounding and circuit breakers on the mains of the house. Or at least fuses.
I didn't knew those big caps were connected to the chassis. I'm usually very wary around them, i'm taking your warning very seriously now. Got my PC's regulator connected to an extension cord going to a properly earthed socket now. I'll get the wire to properly earth the wall socket sometime next month.
you has got really good english i understand him, im from poland, and i think your version of english is better to understand in Slavic countries than normal english!

Quick charge 23.0 😂😂 Nice video, i like your English. :) Nasdravi!
Will charge you instantly with positive vibes. Bzzzt....
Incredible! It's only the minimum so that the user can "try" it on the store, nothing more. No lithium batteries for such a product nowdays is a scam, incredible that there is no charge current and voltage limitation, no resistor for LEDs OMG! Thanks the shitty battery high internal resistance to dissipate the voltage drop! The range might be maximum few minutes and seconds for the phone. No switching mode power supply for an USB plug... Just a capacitor to limit mains current and a battery to "limit" the voltage, if the battery is disconnected, bye bye the phone x) The fan is a poor DC motor, the solar cell must produce just enough current to light up the "charging LED". And 1 chance out of 2 to get the live wire, great gadget!
Hello! Love your channel, also understand french! I would love dodgy Chinese devices analysis from your channel!
I have a rechargeable lantern, the mine came with a warning, never turn on, never use while charging plugged on the mains.
@@dschannel1171 LOL it is crazy!!!
Particular product is dangerous to unsavy users, yes. However absence of lithium batteries alone is not a scam! You are mixing apples with oranges here.
these could be modded to make them safe, remove the mains charge circuit and fit a 5v charge input so can be charged from a standard usb power supply..i dont know why they didnt do this in the first place as usb/5v charging is pretty much universal nowadays
or they could have had a rotatable plastic ring with two holes not quite 180 degree apart, which could be rotated, making the charge and usb power out socket accessible alternately, but not simultaneously
but as the usb out is only 3.6v , quickest and easiest is to disconnect it and maybe remove the socket completely and bung the hole up..
if they had used 4 cells making 4.8v, it would've been better...
Converting it to Li-Ion with a TP4056 charge control board on the input would make it safer and give a longer runtime... and adding a boost converter to the USB outlet, to bring the voltage up to 5V, would make charging devices a whole lot easier without using crappy 600mAh (maximum!) Ni-MH or Ni-Cd cells.
ah, but thats costly 😉
4:09 "And this one is a nice Finger Chopper." lol
I heard these also have live mains going to the metal plate covering the power button when charging. I have one of these I got as a “gift”. Stay away these are DANGEROUS!
Simply check if something on the housing is on mains and remove the USB and everything's good.
I've seen a similar circuit in another Chinese lantern. The battery blew up because there was no voltage stabilization in the voltage divider.
I SUBSCRIBED beacuse you do things like this! AWESOME VIDEO 👍👍👍
Very interesting video! I like these videos.
You're accent is so adorable!!!❤️❤️ Love from India!!!❤️❤️
7:49 normally in china😂😂😂
No inrush resistor because this is normal in China. 😆😆
@@raulmario7006 It works without it and can save 5 k$ on 1 Mio units. Why bother.

Very Nice Video.
Thank you so much for giving me best or right information.
i read the title and thought "what your iphone should be on fire"
but then the lightbulb test was undeniable.

Why is your English like this
Because not everyone is lucky enough to be born in an English speaking country :).
DiodeGoneWild you are from france right?

I think people think that because the runforthecube youtube channel guy speaks like that... But you should be thankful for the content

Hello Diode
Show us how and why underground wire detector is so expensive?
That's why you should use *FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER*
Excellent analysis!! Fortunately in Europe the Custom police routenely seizes cargos full of gadgets like this one. I love your job! Big accolade!
why, what happened to this lantern why is it bad?? that's what i wanna know
A great machine, OK to touch when plugged in as long as you don't touch ground on a radiator so for example. Shame they never totally isolated it.
I had this with a fancy "dj" light on it, instead of a fan
I've got the one with the disco light as well :)
At 3:29 it would have expected the RCD to trip...
If there was any RCD in my apartment :).
DiodeGoneWild what about that heated shower head video?
Agree. Older buildings often does not have RCD at all.
a lot of old radio's and amplifier also used to have the casing connected as neutral but if you would turn the plug around the casing will be live!
Your cat was lucky that it didn't try to disturb you when an iPhone was live. :D

What I'm wondering is how did you realise that there was mains going through the USB?
I think he tried to grab the phone or something
The light bulb... It's made for mains power, so if it lights up at full brightness it means that there's mains in it. Also he measured the current
@@tcg1_qc Shut up! you didn't even understand what he meant.
@@akupehsluarketatAR Wth dude what have I done to make you angry?I understood what he said and explained... People these days, they get angry and attack random people for no reason...
@@tcg1_qc dude u hv issues understanding sentences
Clive V0.9 Early Access (broken English)
But his english is not as bad, when compared to some other YT channels
How can the diode pass current to the negative side of the USB its still in the blocking direction in the situation that you change mains and neutral you say the the negative hald cycle will pass the diode??
Super information

OMG Lightbulb made in POLAND! Wow!
xD
Did the iPhone survive
Apple Trump obviously the iPhone survives......
@@Isolierter_Hazim the 220VAC is running on the metal body of the phone and not inside the electric circuit of the phone which mostly inflict no harm to any phone.
@@integraxnine745 now that's something interesting to me to know.
Integra Xnine may i ask how it reaches the body without going through the circuitry of the phone first? Since it’s plugged into its charging port
@@someone321 Apple Pro it's the same as if you sit on isolated surface and touch the live mains wire ( only single wire ) you won't get a shock but if you touch a terminal of a voltmeter and plug the other terminal in the mains, the device reads 220VAC. Now repeat the same experiment but this time hold a pcb board of an electronic Device such as a calculator.you can measure the voltage between the calculator and the mains and it will be 220VAC and the calculator runs fine because it's at the mains potential but curries no mains current due to the absence of the completion of circuit ( ground or another mains terminal). Now bring that tough calculator and let it touch the both mains terminals and it'll go boom because the mains circuit is completed and mains current is flowing recklessly through the poor calculator circuit.
You may watch "horrific us power supply fault" video for more in depth info.
Don't listen to the trolls on this video I think your English is good and I enjoy watching your content keep up the good work
I have seen one of these torches at my local $2 shop over here in melbourne, victoria, australia and apparently i was told that the charge socket with the 2 pins is for connecting up to a 12v power source like in a car and not for connecting up to the mains
How would this work with a DC supply given that there's a capacitor in series with the port?
4:20 😂😂😂
I think if it was not for the USB connector, this would not be such a bad device. It is enclosed in plastic, after all.
I don't think it would do a very good job of charging a phone or similar, as the 3.75V NiMH battery is only just slightly higher than a fully spent 3.6V Lithium cell. So there would be no great loss of functionality (and at least some improvement in terms of safety) if you simply disconnected the USB port.
Having said all that, those (AAA?) cells probably would not last long on a single charge; so if you ever actually went camping with this fan / light after making it less unsafe, your tent probably will just end up too hot and in the dark .....
I bought an LED flashlight that charges by mains power. I took it apart to look at the circuits and I ended up replacing the mains plug with a USB plug. It was so unsafe before.
Actually it looks like a pretty decent lantern except for 220V Nightmare..
I love your accent! You are lucky!
LasVegas/U.S EAS Giovannif2007 my ears are not
Love your accent the lamp reminds me of bigclive gay darlek camping lamp that's nice
I think big clive made a teardown of a similar one, but without the fan.
DiodeGoneWild he did but your just as good man keep it up the way you point out Chinas error in electrics is grate there are no protection in this circuit tthhaattss nniicceess
@@DiodeGoneWild He also did a teardown of one with a disco light in the top (instead of the useless solar cell). I have that version myself, but I don't use the USB port on it.
Your channel is underrated
your english is a bit funny and your content even funnier, instant like! keep it up :)
How can I be serious watching this video with *dat* *voice*
Can someone please explain why the iphone didnt get fried???
Sachin Gowda apple may have predicted these things and made the charging circuit strong enough to withstand these inputs
Sachin Gowda its the same with humans if you touch a 230volt cable you get a shock buf if you wear rubber boots you don't get a shock but there is 230volt on you
It has a safe charging circuit and will prevent current from flowing through the phone's innerds. The charging port is connected to the casing of the phone
Only one pole was connected to the charging curcuit. There wasn't any current inside the unit.
Because it's made in China too.
If you was able to read chinese, there is an warning in the instruction for this device NOT TO CONNECT ANYTHING TO USB WHILE THE DEVICE IS CONNECTED TO THE MAINS! I have similar lamp, but it is without a fan, it comes with an instruction in chinese and russian and it have this warning.
Good video!

Transformerless powersupply are useful in some environment but not like they way it is used on a device that can charge a phone.
This battery charging "solution" reminds me portable Rovus portable vacuum cleaner which I got as giveaway. Same NiMH battery, larger brushed motor and switch between charging and work modes. Only that thing had external 9V power supply with transformer and full bridge rectifier :) In end disposed it because it charged painfully slow and battery was empty after 45 seconds.
Use this as a table lamp , put an alarm on your phone and connect it to the lantern, best way to get out of sleep
So there's no current limit on the LEDs, so what if you power them while charging it?
The capacitive dropper has a 3 kΩ impedance limiting the current to 70 mA on the AC side. So 100 mA peak from the charger.
I'm more concerned about the smoothing capacitor in parallel with the battery.
How would you change this design to isolate the load from mains?
good video, really interesting... also the led doesnt turn off to indicate the charge is completed...
but does the iphone still charge or work properly when plugged in to that lantern?
Is there a way to fix this design problem? I like the concept but it's not a good design electronically.
actually, there are screws under the solar cell, so you should remove the solar cell first before you can acceess the screws
*This is cleeeeeverrrrr*
Good one
Big Clive called these "Death Daleks"
god damn that handwriing is just very awesome. so nice to look at. I'm jealaous (my writing is chicken scratching)
And then I finished my senteeeeence
Great video
VERY GOOD
full main voltage on the phone...... thats niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!! :D
This lantern would be quite safe if correctly connected with a polarised mains plug such as the one used in the UK and some other countries. Then the 1uF capacitor drops all the voltage and the circuit never sees more than a volt relative to neutral. At least until there's a failure such as the capacitor failing short circuit, then watch out. It still wouldn't be legal to sell this in the UK, there has to be double insulation between the mains and anything touchable.
UK have same laws as rest of EU for the most part.
This thingy is just Chinese not giving a damn about design or safety
Why does your rcd dont trip when hold the lightbulb to the phone with a wire to ground?
I don't think there is one, or the power strip has been rewired for experiments.
The charging circuit is similar with racket mosquito zapper and some cheap flashlight
How are the battery and phone not destroyed ?
So does that mean if I hold my phone and stand on floor I will get electrocuted?
As nowadays if you charge the product and connects to phone I know it's more than 220 volts but if the flashlight is isn't connected to its charger,it charges your phone only around 5volts. how did I know? I was charging the product when I touched the USB outlet it shocked me.
Hi your channel is good and your english is soo funyy. 😉😉I understand hov it is im from Slovenia and I know how Hard is from your language to english😉
the fan sounds like a swarm of robotic bees. That plug is for an at farm. This is so amazing it can take you to the cemetery.
Oh man ur voice is awesome.
Kids in the neighborhood found one like that from the trash and they gave it to me. I already knew why it failed and thrown away, it is not an SMPS but a dangrous bridge diode and capacitor that is not ideal for charging Li-Ion, Ni-Mh and Ni-Cd batteries.
Now that's a situation where a phone made with plastic is usefull
The acennnnnt is so goood
