You are saying it as if you are going to prepare a meal or something :D
Just a normal day for DGW.
Dodgy is an understatement it's rather terrifying.
Soooppperrrr dogdeeeeee!
UK by any chance?

Haha the whole room goes brrrr
Dodgy and a little "dangeouuuuus". ;D
shop list:
- Salt
- 8 microwave ovens
More salt.....more salt....more salt....more salt.....bloody hell!
I guess you'd still need to buy 16 for the caps
room is vibrating.... eeeven more sallttttt
Don't forget fresh underwear! :-)
Don't forget high voltage capacitors ;)
- gets locked down

You officially attain greatness when you make Photonic Induction look sane. I love this.
Very good point 😅
Tho I can tell you from experience that photon is anything but sane haha. What a character
yeah, dudes got big contactors, dead man switches, standz far away, and does not grab the cables even with a stick.
He's got none of that, officially more insane than photonic induction.
@@Reiikz That said, this guy recall knows his shite too. Don't let the odd accent fool you. I hope Photonicinduction is doing well.
so we got some 4000V 7A AC supply. now we require a "FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER" to make the "DiodeGoneWild"
So now this is electro boom thread

@@DiodeGoneWild yes Danyk!! you tell them!! loved the video''''''
I downloaded this video. It probably will not being for long in public:)
That’s why we love him. He goes wild sometimes
@@rob3125 If you build something that is visually and verbally communicated as dangerous, you are putting yourself at risk. Nobody went and put a screwdriver in your hand.
When using more than 6 capacitors you should change your pants to something less flammable 😂👌🏻
He was using jeans after 5 I think 😂
What the hell how your comment is from one day if the video from 5 hours ago?
@@Unknown-sf6cs Patreon probably.
And waterproof (>_
@@gillywild he has the fire extinguisher
Has a over 40A at 400V running through a random 230V plug
PUTS A TINY SWITCH IN SERIES AND TOUCHES IT BARE HANDED
This is content!
the switch is on the input side where the voltage (more so) & power isn't large enough to arc out through the switch!! Danky(diode gone wild) knows this. And even on the secondary, or output side, see how he has to almost touch the one side to the other to get the arc reaction(lighting) going.. even with all that power & voltage been dumped by the capacitors & transformers you need to be very close before your in danger. WHAT IM TRYING TO SAY IS HE KNOWS WHAT HE"S DOING!!
@@keithking1985 I know he knows what he is doing! It just seems so absurd to use a tiny switch for 400V as a person used to European safety standards 😂
It's not really 40A. Likely RF interfere to the cheapo clamp meter
@@LutzSchafer Given that one microwave transformer at saturation can pull near 3Kw with pretty poor power factor, I'd say that's correct. Granted that switch wouldn't last very long if this were a constant load, or you tried to break 400V under load with it :)
@@ukko9154 agreed.. those switches(if it's the one im thinking it is) are rated for 6 to 10 amps at 240V AC yet the breaker was more. & the switch survived. but only because he wasn't keeping the load on long. if he did it would melt no doubt.. it probably even seen it's last day as a reliable switch after this video!!!
I thought I was watching Kreosan until I heard him start talking.
it sure does look like something they would do.
Ne too
Same lo
😂 Me too!!
Electroboom : Almost killed him self
this guy :
MORE CAPACITOR
And more salt😀
@ElectroBOOM :) some grate video to watch
Electroboom: $4500USD a month on patreon... result= cant afford tweezers for the unibrow
The video’s with the longest warnings page are the best! 🤣
Bloody hell indeed!
And amazing too 🤣🤣🤣
Completely crazy. I agree.
13:32 Fantastic.
Darn tootin yes
Maybe electroboom can learn something and hopefully can make a working Jacobs ladder😂😂
Tejas Kamble he almost lost his life with it. I don’t think he will ever attempt again
His breaker was rated at lower amperage probably (16) and in his country is 120 Volts so the arc consumes double the current to make the same arc like with Europe 230Volts
Easy way to get Jacob's Ladder arc started, use a "cheater" terminal. See this BigClive video:
ua-cam.com/video/Uv-6YgbDoyI/v-deo.html
@@casper2501 im sorry but what is your point?
@@casper2501 actually wrong but. Still right.
Where he is it's the same as the US voltage on average around a hundred twenty volts ac.
If his place is newer likely it would be 20 amps.
Although if it's an older place it may either be 15 or 20 apps.
For example kitchen will be 20 amps.
If properly installed.
Also a 15 amp receptacle does not necessarily mean a 15 amp circuit.
Because a 20 amp breaker is permitted to feed a 15 amp receptacle if there is more than one on the circuit.
But of course will be better have a 20 amp receptacle on a 20 amp circuit in general.
Although occasionally you'll find a single circuit breaker feeding a single 20 amp receptacle in some cases.
Sometimes literally a single receptacle not a duplex receptacle.
AKA a dedicated circuit.
Such as for example a dishwasher if properly installed.
Microwave if properly installed.
Although typically I've seen for a larger microwaves only.
Just depends on who and when it was done excetera.
And now there is supposed to be a 20 amp dedicated circuit in the bathroom for the receptacle.
You might be asking why would you do that.
Modern hair dryers.
That's a newish code requirement.
Also in terms of kitchen receptacles there should be two receptacles there should be two Appliance circuits minimum.
And also somebody else that most people don't realize.
Is that also extends to dining rooms don't remember the year that happened but it does.
And don't forget the rule about within six feet of water AKA a sink.
Outdoor receptacles excetera excetera are required to have ground fault protection.
And now arc fault as well.
Although I don't know about outdoor receptacles for arc fault but probably still good idea.
By the way microwaves enforced lights hand trip ground fault interrupters.
Seen it myself.
Also behind a large Appliance generally gfrc is not required in general?
Speaking of which a refrigerator should be on a dedicated circuit and or a freezer.
AKA if you have a basement that has a fridge and freezer in it needs to be two separate circuits.
By the way I've known of a few places that and had to be redone because the breaker would trip.
Also if you were to have an older electrical system in your running a window air conditioner.
And the fuse blows use a time delay fuse on at circuit.
If the running amps are under the rated load of the circuit.
It will blow on Startup that is a steroid non time delay fuse of the same rating.
I told my father and grandpa that when I was a kid.
They had the same problem with the fridge and freezer downstairs
Now there's two separate circuits down there for them.
And also new service entrance.
100% Breakers now.
Also there is now two washers and two dryers in the house.
And central air so yeah.
My parents place recently had the electrical system updated as well.
So no more blowing fuses and tripping Breakers.
Also if you have a foursome light on like a basement stairs and you're going to be up and down all day leave it on all day.
If it's fluorescent it's best to leave it on if you'll be in an out then turning on and off.
It's not about energy saving it's about saving the life of the fluorescent tubes.
just wanted to put that to rest once and for all.
They've had for some tubes in the basement and on the stairway that have lasted probably lasted 2 years.
Already blackening and flickering.
Just goes to show.

EectroBOOM: video title: 15 LIGHTNINGS IN MY LIVING ROOM
Ha! HA! BA-BOOOOM!!
@Electroboom
Compared to this madness Electroboom is just mild slapstick comedy.
imagine collaborate
His neighbors looking in the window " What the hell???"
His buddy answers "We live next door to diodes Gone Wild, it's all good, he's just getting his daily dose of vitamin D since he can't go outside!!!" :-)
BLOODY HELL !! If my electrical teacher will see this video he will get a heart attack !!
NO - Electrical teacher will get an ejaculation LOL
I really like how you measured the current. There's a hundred videos online of guys making arcs with "resonant capacitors" but this is the first one I've seen that measures the actual output volts and amps going into the arc.
The way you reduced the voltage across the transformers and then added the mains voltage back to it was a really clever way to get around core saturation:-)
@@hardstyle905 then you clearly didn't see the entire video. he actually measured the arc current.
@@hardstyle905 12:16
I can feel the EMP interference from here
its not pulsed but I would keep my phone and laptops far apart
Its not emp its not high frequency.
That moment when your neighbor thinks you're trying to jump-start your own sun.
what a class! we use some tricks to switch reactors, capacitors and transformers on high voltage substations, which basically monitores the zero crossing of voltage to minimize the current peak. I work at ABB and there we have the T183 switchsync, now upgraded to PWC600.
DiodeGoneWild has finally gone wild!
Puh, crazy stuff. I'm happy everytime to see a new video from you, just to know you are still alive. ;-)
Please be very careful.
please dont die. the ladder arc at the end is amazing.
I love this sound!
Magnificent!
Electroboom:touch the secondary of the transformer
Diode gone wild:make 1m ark
And then Wonder what has there been no more uploads from electroboom!!!
@@aaronbrandenburg2441 pls dont :/
I love watching your channel. You have been very educational to me!. Thank you!!.
You sir, are both a madman and a genius. That's why we love you!.
Super že ses vrátil ke kořenům a natočil zase jednou pořádně šílený video.
I've played with a microwave oven transformer before and thought that's already to doggy. But this is insane! :) I can't wait for your tesla coil be finished
Next time, put copper salts (copper sulphate, copper chloride...) on the electrodes. You will get green arcs!
I did something similar for making high voltage high current DC.
I needed it for hot electric arcs to generate nitrogen oxides inside a big glass jar (the 50 litre type).
It pulled 21 amps @230V constantly and I had to watercool the whole assembly.
In the end, I had to move the air cooled heat radiators outside the room in which It was operating because the whole room was like 50*C after a few hours.
OMG UPLOADED 20 seconds ago!!!!!
I'm up doing virtual school but gotta hand it to you now im watching this friend!!!! :) I love your videos- i learn so much from them!!!!
what did you learn from this video?
@@johnconrad5487 It's Easy question, rather easy answer. How to make 1m ark😄 bloody hell🤣
Extremely entertaining video, but holy shit dude! I am glad you lived through that experiment. Please take care of yourself.
This looks very dodgy.
And Very crazy, Man!
@@Cyklon-A what's going on here is the very definition of dangerous. when they say it is the amps that kill you there's plenty of those. 0.035 of an amp can do it. This was what 7 amps on the secondary? But if you're not in the circuit it isn't an issue either. Better make very sure you aren't though. Might want to have someone on hand with a defibrillator if you're playing with one of these.
This particular diode is really wild!
This is insane!! I love it 😁
Damn! Guess you can check that one off the bucket list! I've NEVER seen a mot arc like that. Sounds like shorts that you hear on power poles/KV faults! Be well!
I winced when I saw you pushing wires into the breaker, I would not have wanted both hands so close to the 400vac supply without insulating gloves. Good luck and please keep the videos coming
I love this channel, you've become the mad scientist..😅😆...
40 yrs in electronics, I don't have the nerve to even think about doing something like this..😛
Incredible my friend...you are trully diode gone wild😍😍😍😍
Totally crazy video good sir, I love them .
Ahoj.
Toto je kurevsky nebezpečný! Znám týpka, co si hrál se dvěma MOTama a proskočilo mu to skrz linoleum a málem si zapálil barák.
Jinak pěkná práce :-D sleduji tvoji tvorbu už od roku 2008 a baví mě neuvěřitelně!! Jen tak dál, jen na sebe dávej pozor.
Wauw!!
Normally diodegonewild is a serious e-stuff handling learningchannel(from wich i learned things as the practical working of pfc (the e-theoritics i learned the most from SamBenYaakovs channel)).
But hey, now i see, sometimes this wild diode makes pure wild-e-fun!!
But tjee, thát long arcs??!! Dodgy but amazing he sais! Hahaaa, bloody hell? Yes, at least!!
For the turn on curren limit, you can try what I did on my 3,7kVA isolation transformer:
Put a fluorescent lamp ballast in series, with a relay contact that shorts it and a 230V relay coil that is just connected directly to the mains voltage. Because the relay is mechanical, there is always some delay between powering the coil and the contacts closing, and it is enough to limit the inrush current, at least in my case.
Yeah good idea. Basically youve made a soft starter. You use also use a capacitor, or high power resistor intead of a ballast. It might even be possible to get a large NTC thermistor in series that would suppress the current spike.
@@HighVoltageMadness A capacitor would be a bad idea. It wouldn't suppress the initial spike much, and when it gets shorted by the relay, it would also damage the relay contacts. A power resistor or NTC works, however ideally you want those to be OK even if the relay fails to close, which a lamp ballast can tolerate no problem, plus you can probably get them for free.
A nice project, master of lightning
That's crazy!!! I am also an electronics hobbyist, and I have dreampt of this sometimes, though I have wanted to do it with lower current so its not so dangerous.
Congratulation ! Very scientific and .........crazy !
I love that buzzing!
Wow. Awesome video! Greatings from Poland ;)
That arc, especially with 7 capacitors on each side sounds so angry, I love it
Excellent video
Probably you have heard that before but, you are the craziest dude i know...nice experiment
definitely the craziest project on this channel:))))
LOL ... One minute in ... Im starting to think he's doing it intenntionaaaaaaalllllllllllly 😅😅
Czech has a very long stress on graved vowels
YEAH!!! Awsome Video !!! I knew you would try something like this since I've seen you are collecting microwave parts in your last videos ! LOL! Awsome! Congratulations!
Holy shit! OMG that super dodgy and crazy! Love the video. I like how he is casually saying nice and amazing right next to the 1 meter arcs jumping around and burning the air. Adding the salt didnt even make it worse like with the water heaters. This is even crazier than the microwave debunk video but he handled it as if this is something he does regularly. I dont know what to say anymore than super dodgy as always. I hope you see this amazing idea how does something like that come to your mind. Keep it up its just unbelievable magic. Very nice
Bonkers as well as dodgy :o) I feared for the life of your clamp meter in the secondary current test ! - it survived though, apparently :o) I just wouldn't want to stand that close to an arc of that size.....
I could watch those arcs all day.
This is how people in Czech Republic spend their quarantine time, absolute slav :D
9:36 ja boi got those crocks for protection
Good video, a proper fun. :) Nice safety sport trousers at 6 capacitors. ;) It must have been hot there from all this arc, because at 7 capacitors - completely different clothes. :D Greets. :)
wow you're so fearless to even create such arcs
Hello DiodeGoneWild! You are one of my favourite youtubers. But everytime you upload a new Video, I hope it won't be your last. When you say: "It's dangerous and dodgy, but it looks awesome", i do agree, but please stay safe! Apart from that, thank you for your great content in all of your videos - I do learn a lot.
Dont worry he is being safe
The old lady downstairs probably thinks he's vacuumcleaning.
Now this is time well spent
That was frikin awesome. I was gettin scared every time you added a cap because it looked like you safety stick was not goin to be long enough lol.
_styropyro and kreosan want to know your location_
And Photonicinduction. And Electroboom. And several governments.
2:20 Very ingenious way of increasing the voltage. These transformers are now auto-transformer (primary and secondary are connected together).
His neighbor's electronics probably gone very wild after getting such current impulses.
Room is vibrating. Glass is jumping. Even more salt 😂

when he said salt i had some flashbacks
Thanks for the entertainment. It helps a lot here in Pennsylvania, laid off and under a stay-at-home order. Cabin fever is already creeping in...

How much is the energy costs for one such 7-capacitors-3-seconds lightening?
Do you have a wholesale tariff?
Could use a few and have a electromagnet. Thats better than some that cost over 500$. All in metal box with switch and 3 in parallel or series but put those transformers to money? Just a thought. Need workshop to really do it good enough to sell but their amazing magnets. Do you know if cutting the coil down to primary would be more magnetic or would it be same if pushed primary to top? Rambling but wondered. Also could I use a changing input to make it more or less magnetic? With 240 to 0 dial although cheap and not accurate but cuts voltage also do you think if mot magnet would they get hot with 240v? Mains no dial to have enough to hold work?
Cool project
Great video
Even more salt!
You can actually direct connect 400V~ on the transformers , i actuallu tried , it worked just the primary windings got a little bit hotter of course.
Try it, 400volts on each transormer, they will not get damaged or overheated, unless you run them for over 20 mins.
I tried , my calculations were around 8 , 9 kV at the output, and i connected all secondaries on series. They worked great.
You can't run 220V or 230V MOTs at 400V.
So today let's try to set my living room on fiaaaaaaaree
Wow, really cool. But that's terribly dangerous. Just take care of yourself so you can stay with us for a long time. A really great video ...
gee what Frankenstein could of done with this monster setup 😎 it's alive... it's alive 😲 thanks very neat video
Make sure DiodeGoneWild, Electroboom and Photonicinduction never meet in real life. It would either be the end of the world or the most crazy thing happen ever!

Sometimes I want do like this experiment but I know that also too danger so thank you much that you did as expert. My question can we benefit from these transformers in something else
Finally someone who make this
