    I was watching this video while my wife shopped next to me on her phone, she is an electrical engineer, and when you got to your diagram she started yelling at the screen the correct terms and such n such. It was rather hilarious for me. She said you owe her for the eye cancer haha

      Hand Tool Rescue - I want to taze the birds getting to my squirrel feeder. Or just throw the left-handed nut-f*cker at them! Stunned birds + hungry cats = no more pesky bird droppings on my car! (Oh yeah, and food for the fire 🐜) Handy schmoo with electrocity! 😎

    There was a young plumber named Lee

    There's somebody coming"

    I remember a few christmases ago. My dad and I are watching the game and my wife walks in the room with her hands about 6" apart and says "how big is this, like 12" ?"
    My dad, without missing a beat, says "I guess you taught her how to measure."

    Nifty little device. When I saw you sharpening the pencil reminded me of an exciting experiment I did when I was young. Found a neon sign transformer and made a Jacobs ladder. Had great fun sticking different things in the arc, that is until I used a pencil. Next think I knew I was at the other side if the room, I was sitting in a wheeled office chair at the time. That is when I leaned graphite is conductive. Have taken high voltage seriously ever since.

  • @khronscave
    @khronscave 5 років тому +4

    9:46 It helps to have a system for that. It may well be an (unwritten) "industry standard" thing, but input on the left, and output on the right makes most sense to me, when making (or lifting) schematics. In a similar manner, ground on the bottom and whatever supply voltages, on the top.

  • @JoeCatshoee
    @JoeCatshoee 6 років тому +1

    FYI UB: it doesn't need to be powered by an AC source to be a voltage booster. The brain box can simply switch the DC supply and feed that into the diode voltage doubler. That's how DC-DC boost converters work, too.

  • @krustbag1039
    @krustbag1039 6 років тому +3

    just to eleborate for those that don't know what AvE was saying, the 2 coils are basically a transformer, but you cant transform dc because it needs an EMF that builds and collapses to induce a voltage on the other winding.
    so an IGBT is used to simulate the effect of a sine wave, by turning on and off at varying rates, we call this an inverter, taking dc, and faking ac.
    the reason the voltage goes up, and the current goes down, is because the power must stay the same, and Power = Voltage * Current (apparent power),
    and the amount of that change is controlled by the ratio of windings, for example 2:1 would be 24 and 12 windings.
    this one will be a very high ratio, like 1000:1 or more.
