I bought the toaster because my old one was not big enough for wide slices of rye bread ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxE7HOOpW0eh4vbVGAB_r_cURwoxZxpZPA and it was wide enough for huge slices or, if the bread is narrow, four slices at the same time.

Proper toaster! Two things I hate about most toasters: 1) They won't take full size bread like Warburton's Toastie Loaf. 2) The elements don't glow enough, so the bread dries out before going brown. So now I know what to do when buying a new toaster! Wire my spare 240/110V transformer like an autotransformer and run the toaster on about 350V. Sorted!
@ Connor Freeman, the output goes though an isolation transformer, ( no earth required ) To get a shock you would have to touch both the output leads at the same time. The system has an Earth but it is pointless Earthing the device on test. Enable your reply button man!
Hi. What do you know about longitudinal energy waves ? Apparently it's this old concept thats gathering a lot or research lately...it's outside the normal electromagnetic principles.
+Photonicinduction Hey dude! I came to your channel a few years ago, because of the legendary video "Washing Machine Self Destructs"... I missed your channel while it was gone and i was out of my mind, when i discovered you were back on youtube with some new stuff. just wanted to tell you that you really kinda touched me with your final words in this video, just started repairing some speakers and finally did it, well kinda :D thx for your support!
I love the control panel with the skull. Lights up like a Christmas tree. That Kanthal A-1 resistive wire is good stuff. I have a couple rolls of it that I need to make use of. That is some ugly looking bread.
I got an old 1953 Westinghouse toaster that glows about as much as the left side of that one in the first test, it'll make two slices in about 40 seconds, so I guess toasters back in the day just had a brute force approach instead of the gradual heating that modern ones do. Also that older one has both thermal overheat and circuit protection, and a nice mechanical timer, no messy circuitry to fail, the Chinese one it replaced, decided to stick in the on position and nearly melted itself to the counter top and set off the fire alarm, dangerous cheap junk.
I bought a soldering iron from a 24 hour shop in Shenzhen in 2008, shortly before Lehman Bros went under. It would not melt solder, but melted the handle, bending over in the stand like a wilting plant, which then dripped down over the iron, made a puddle of liquid, which then tripped the fuse, and set itself on fire.

Jolly good, I had a chat with the producers earlier, they have full permission, they also want to interview and get a behind the scenes...lol that might be interesting.
That's my man :-) I've actually been running an old style 110V toaster (flip, circa 1930, coils on ceramic insulators) at double its design output (1800W instead of 900W for one side at a time, effectively irradiating twice as much as your contraption with its 4 side heating), using a single diode on 220V and toasting time, depending on bread type, is no more than 40 seconds both sides and it gives the most deliciously crisp toast with perfectly moist insides, it doesn't get any better than this. :-) After 4 years, it's still working as good as new, the only thing different is the sound the coils make because of half wave rectifying. Of course, I'd never try this with a cheapo toaster with mica insulator like your Tefal ;-)
Aaaah, go on..... I dare you to get the toaster in the 415v outlet. Get it properly Glowiiiiiiiiin' in there. The whole shop floor could have toast in under two minutes. :D Today's top dare: Do it with the kettle to see if you can optimise Cuppa-Tea-Time. -BoomBoxDeluxe. _19th october 2014, 18.30_

RalphArwen I fail to see anywhere in my writing that I pushed anyone down the stairs, unless you need to get something off your chest. Feel free to share.
3kW is about the maximum you're supposed to take from a standard UK plug (as rate). The standard US plugs are only about 1.8kW so selling them abroad would be difficult. I guess US folks could just wire it straight in :P Although there is a 3kW (13A) rating on the UK plug you could probably pull 7.5kW on a single ring main since breakers are generally 32A if you swap the fuse on the plug, not that it's advisable to exceed the max current by that much. Just imagine a 7kW toaster though!
funky3ddy Surely that can't pass safety as much as a single plug with above rated current would though and unless you were running lots of cable it would be on the same ring main
Callum Aitchison Yeah. But a lot of people have two independent sockets side by side, one for oven\electric stove for example, and second for dish washing machine. So assuming proper multiple warning stickers will be placed on our turbo toaster\kettle, this can pass safety checks.
Why not just put a RV style 50 amp, 240 volt plug on the toaster. ;D I want to see a toaster that works like a camera flash. Push the button and flash! Toast is done.

Photon is the best guy to do this kind of stuff, congrats man keep on with ur work and remember, we want MMMOOOORRREEEEEEEE
Do you want me to send you a proper cast iron skull?
BenNBuilds you can sent it to me
Glad to have ya back, no one else destroys equipment with such relish
If you ever get the chance you should do a collab with the EEVblog, that'd be sick.
No!! an Aussie50 collab would mean the end of the world as we know it :P
9:45 That look on his face LOL
He's like, WTF just happened?
I love you guys, you're doing an excellent job, keep it up lads!
What is this accent. Southern england? Plz help me i dont know.
+ukkomies100 South eastern
+sin4422 close enough.
ukkomies100 not really i'm south western and I have a completely opposite accent as devonshire born.
+sin4422 ok. But close enough while keeping in mind that it was a complete guess from me. Only thing i knew about accents is that this accent is somewhere in south and i was not too sure about that either.
+ukkomies100 He's from Kent.
You are one crazy man, Photonicinduction... I love it!
Keep up the good work and have fun doing it. 10 second toast!
epic!! it's toast!!!
you just unwittingly created a better "mouse trap" . since time is the most precious commodity followed by health and respect, you hit all three - a toaster that operates fast giving you that extra time to hit the gym or jog, then still get to work on-time and earn/keep the boss's respect. booyakasha!
Has circuit board.
Doesn't even pop it.
How disappointing.
"it ain't popped it" - photon "i will pop it in a minute" LOL your love for popping shit never gets old.
What a waste, children in Africa could've eaten that toaster.
Mhhh toaster
Honestly, I'm suprised you are still alive. Not that I ever want anything bad to happen to you... Ever. You have provided me with laughter and most importantly education through the years. We all owe you a debt.
Fantastic as always. I love the new look for the lounge.
What do you do for a living?
I make quick toast.
+Apollo Smile You're stupid

5:55 “I’m not eating that” probably a good move 😂
I'm glad that you're back! Cheers from Canada!
"Mind you, you can always scrape that off, can't you? Done that before..." So wonderfully British, jolly well done chaps!
Nice to see photon making the recommendations again.
Subscriptions up 300% in that last 30 days..
Great to see such regular vids again, that power supply has only scarier btw!!!
This toast is done! well done! LOL.
Thanks a lot for providing the technical details also, very interessting.
I want two of those ten second toasters, please. I'm very impatient for my toast in the mornings.
Great video as always, good luck and I wish you all the best.
By George, you've created a new 'English proverb.' "If it don't work, bust it!" Great job
"toasts done!"
loved it! two things.
1: They make them so it will be warm on the inside of the toast, thats why they toast slowly
2: Dear god you look like this guy I know here in TX, eyes, hair, everything, except the accent
For breakfast, please can I have two slices of toast spread with 'I can't believe it's not buggered'... and a glass of pop... Perfect:)
Your videos are a joy to watch! I'll bet I'm not the only viewer who is hungry for a piece of toast now.
This guy is the living embodiment of every Mad Scientist in the past century of pulp fiction.
The MEB invoice coming to your house with all the stuff you do must be like a nuke in an envelope.
RIP toaster. Some point in the last ten years-2014. He lived a full life.
Brilliant! I'v always wished my toast could be done in 10 seconds.lol
Removed “the unnecessary things”. Gold. 💯
