What happens if you plug hot dogs into an electric outlet? Josh discusses a crazy alternative to a grill and how you can cook with electricity.

This channel is awesome dude, I've been here since you had 25 subscribers. It's about time you're channel starts growing huge!

Thanks for the support man! We're getting there, one sub at a time.

Is the hot dog safe to eat? Can metal ions migrate into the hotdog?

[@dxdx666]

hey dude, how many amps draws that hot dog at 120 V AC?

[@chargeeverywhere]

Not very much. It used around 140W Max power, which if divided by 120V, comes to 1.17 Amps.

[@dxdx666]

230 (240) V works just as good, cooking them in 30 seconds or less. problem with even higher voltages is increased arcing (and i heard "metal taste" of the hotdog). and 1000 J, >1000 V capacitor discharges tend to destroy them "instantly".

[@chargeeverywhere]

Yea, I've seem some videos at high voltages! I really didn't think about the metallic taste in these - especially if I lowered the wattage as I do in my second video on this topic. A longer cooking time at a lower wattage seems to be the best.

Have you seen The Exterminator (1980)? Guy cooks a Hotdog, by sticking two forks into it, and tying those to a lamp.

why are you telling us not to do this and then proceed to show us exactly how to do this
