Fluorescent Tube Burnout Extreme! Total Meltdown!

- Fluorescent tube literally melting with flames at 12,000 volts!
Music: • Fluorescent tube burno...
At about 2:00 the tube loses vacuum but at 12kv the arc can still be maintained and this causes the power going through the lamp to rise significantly and heat it up a lot. This begins heating the glass to the point that it becomes conductive which then allows the current to flow through it like a resistor thus melting the glass! ( 2:24 ) - Наука та технологія
you nailed the music background
Remember Kids: Never Plug your Micky Mouse Lamp Into A 12,000 Volt Outlet!
At 2 minutes it almost looks like a high pressure sodium sparking up...
i've always wanted to see a tube subjected to massive overload, thanks for sharing! great video
@suzukir123 Actually it was pretty safe because I was always more than 3 feet from the lamp and 12000v cannot arc further than that and my camera was on a tripod 5 feet away for safety (just zoomed in).
WOW! Very nice kill! I love how the 'tube' turned to a puddle of glass LOL
This is very impressive! Have you ever done anything like this before?
Amazing! Nice experiment
Great music choice lol.
Nice experiment!
@XmasLightsGuy I used a transformer designed to convert the 12,000v from a substation to 240v for a home. They can be used in reverse so I got 12,000v from 240v mains! It had to be ballasted to 7kw instead of running at the full 16kw because the load would have overloaded the mains wiring in the building and caused serious problems.
It’s swirling
WHAAATT?!! You melted it!! :-D ROFL & LMAO !!
That's nuts! A tube being over-powered so much, it melts! :-D
I think I partly achieved that when I tried to wire one filament of a 2D 28w lamp straight to the mains, restricted by a 2kw fan heater, switched to 1 kW, as the tube glowed-up real good, went into an arc-up inside, & then at the source of the arc-up, it got hot enough to make the tube vent-off...Somthing which I wasn't quite expecting!
Thanks for showing this,
-BoomBoxDeluxe.
That is freakin awesome!!!!!!!!
What did you use to drive it?
Neon transformer?
I want you to do this with germicidal lamp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Smelled like fireworks and ozone actually
Ew
This was interesting to watch.
The glass was already melted. But how was the discharge till then? The electrodes were already disconnected. But how was the discharge till now?
@jonathanmlang what vaccuum can u explain to me please
wow is all i can say... how much current did you run thru the tube? it must be quite a bit (more than a NST can do) to heat the glass to where it's conductive...
now we need 600 and we've got a RAVE.
at the end, did you switch it off or did the circuit finally break?
What did you do to it to get it to melt?
Blast with HV until the resulting heat started melting the glass.
LOL that was awesome! Total meltdown!
What did you use to do it?
Glass like a ceramic in Nernest lamp... Normaly temperature not conduct, but in hight temperatures starts conduct and glow...
What kind of music do you are playing?
Nice video!
What is name of the music of your clip? I can't find it anywhere... :-/
Pretty sweet music track! Are you able to give us a download link or PM it? Thanks mate, appreciated
@Photonicinduction you're gonna try it right?
New experiment-fluorescent tube VS a MOT lol
geez... jonathanmlang... ummm... yeah
that is as far from safe as you can get.
LOL
When glass get hot enough, I've heard it goes conductive. :)
Whats the name of the song?
@Photonicinduction Thank you so much! I knew you would like it! :D
I watch this when I was 7
Next door was chainsawing so that was all you could hear.
Músic is good and R.I.P. the fluorescent light
is not neon
@@eclairaigepublique35 edited the answer now
I'd say the high voltage along with the phosphor played part in keeping it lit
Nice songs
whats the melting point of glass again? lol. wow
@jonathanmlang, but geezzz.... lol you literally melted the
bulb!
Wow!
It has no name! The link is in the description.
This will happen if there's no ballast.
yes
@7ReyZor Well that's what high voltage does!
Higher voltage = longer arcs.
Wow never seen anything like it!!, erm also whats the song xD
This video would be so much better with sound.
@BowlingMania14 Nope, didn't know what to expect actually!
Interesting
@cumesoftware I thought that was the air leaking in through a cracked seal.
LOL. Make this with a 20kV power supply.
@jonathanmlang How cool!!! I figured it had to be something more powerful than a neon transformer which'll do high voltage but very low current LOL
12kv at 540mA!!!
oh my god
That must have been an awful smell.
wow 540! my 12 kv supply (NST) only puts out 3mA
Get rid if the fairground music
lol
Add the sound
stop drop and roll light
insta kill!!!
@suzukir123 That was the point! :)
i tried it
i got arcs and fire and smoke
Mot will just burn!
2:22 fluorescent lamp turned into low pressure sodium
Waaaaw
Where's the fun in that? We want to see it suffer not pop!
Lens flare
wow 18w 12000v 1000w !?
?
@Santaarnpaal Actually I did do this at home lol.
I thought it will just burn out
insra kill!!!
Check your message box on UA-cam. :-)
You wont! I made it XD
Cheap camera :D
