The antenna pretty much confirmed my suspicion: The egg just has a small FM transmitter like what you would use in an older car. The duck is just an FM radio. Presumably one of the switch positions should be tuning it to the egg, but since it's FM there's obviously a ton of interference. That being said, a Bluetooth version would be nifty.
I bought one of those FM transmitters to put in a car. I've set it all the way at the end of the FM bandwidth so I'm sure no statons will be picked up there. The audio quality is surprisingly decent.
I'm guessing this thing isn't using Bluetooth but instead is just an FM radio and an egg shaped FM transmitter. Setting to "audio" is probably to knock the radio sensitivity down so it'll only detect the egg once it's dialed in, hence the random static when it isn't.
@@rcflight13 the issue is that the FM transmitter in the egg runs on three startled yelp bats. 3.5 volts (at best) isn't really gonna put out a solid signal.

You have to be the most naturally funny person on UA-cam, I'm not even exaggerating. Your throwaway jokes send me into convulsions that end with coughing and pain, your thought out ones cause near hallucinogenic experiences of low oxygen and loss of bodily control. I think I shit
@@vinchinzo594 honestly you made me reread and realize I still had the word "funniest" types out even tho I had added "naturally" behind it cuz I had decided to just say "naturally funny". Thank u for making me check I fixed dat shi now we Gucci keep shynin keep cringin 🙏
The way the egg delivers the music from the input device to the duck is disgusting: It's literally taking the aux in, crushing it to mono, and broadcasting that at FM frequencies which are then intercepted by the duck's radio. It doesn't need the duck to function, it will work with the sad screenless FM radio "iPod" nugget. I can only imagine the bitrate is what those MP3 players in the 90s expected you to put on there to get the best out of your 8mb of internal storage. "Holds up to 100 songs *[several asterisks]"*
Watching DankPods hit the duck with the sexy speaker in the 'bath' whilst narrating has given me an immense amount of joy that no amount of work can take away
I’ve only recently discovered your content so I am randomly just clicking whatever videos UA-cam suggests to me.. I have to say I can’t help but laugh out loud while watching your videos. You are wonderful, hilarious, and just a genuine joy to watch. You have a new fan with me for sure
I actually have a duck bath speaker thing but it’s just a water proof speaker that you insert in a rubber ducks back. Eh. It’s cute and does what it says on the tin.
8:56 It's just a tesla coil. And because Tesla coils (especially the crappy ones) need a lot of voltage and high-frequency AC electricity, and because this thing gets its electricity from 3 AAA batts and a tiny built-in transformer, it runs like crap Actually, it's miraculous that it even works
@sourand jaded Ah, I missed the antenna on the PCB and thought it was a tesla coil when I saw the spring-like shape and a component that looks like a transformer
I was like "oh alright then that fits pretty good." (Sidenote, and this is for everyone, if you haven't already, get some bassy headphones or speakers and play the version by Beat Dominator. You won't regret it. Also i live the fact that it sounds like Jellyfish Jam from Spongebob.)
Microwave books from the 80's are the strange forgotten tomes of a bygone era. They're ancient, useless, and may contain heinous spells that evoke the end of the world. Also nice duck
Seen this kind of thing before. Wireless headsets that you would expect to run on a custom wireless protocol but are just a fm transmitter and the headset is just an fm radio

Hey Wade, Today I am graduating from high school, and I want to thank you for helping me through my hardest times over the years. I had some troubles in my school and got bullied, like getting blackmailed and a student stapling my eyebrows, and your video cheered me through the years and help me get new hobbies like collecting and fixing old tech, appreciation for music, drumming, and making music for fun, and you made my personality funnier. and all I want to say is thank you DankPods.
i love how happy and excited you are, finally a genuine youtuber who truly enjoys what he does. not just the money that comes with it. thank you for making my day every time i see your videos pop up on my notifications. :)
Oh man, this revived some lost old memories of when we had a very similar radio duck like that when I was a kid. I think it was used maybe twice and then just sat on the bathroom shelf.
I ACTUALLY USED TO HAVE ONE OF THESE WHEN I WAS YOUNGER! The egg never rattled but when I smacked it, it would make a fun spring sound. I still have the egg somewhere
This video has to be one of my favourites in a good while. I just feel it's not as formulaic as some recent videos have been, this was a great mix up and the humor was on point.
