    Greetings. My favorite episodes. That last box truly was a treasure and at a bargain price. LOL

      Yes mailbags are always popular. £28 for all that lot I thought was really good. That enamelled copper wire alone is about £30 for each roll. They are 1KG rolls and don't look like they have been used at all. Thanks for watching.

    That's quite the variety.
    That final box had a lot of value in it.

    Great haul! You'll love having a clamp-on DC ammeter, they're so handy.

    I really enjoyed that, thanks. Especially the last box. Isn't it a coincidence how all those eBay sellers used the same shipping sticker.

      Yes the last box was a real bargain full of goodies. YES! all things have to have the 'JazzBrand' logo on, lol. Thanks for watching.

    11:10 an old style thermal overload relay like yours is an add-on module for a contactor and is used for protecting 3-phase motors from drawing too much current. It has bimetallic contacts which open when temperature rises too much. It can work as a crude protection against short circuit or missing phase, but motor switches like the venerable M611 do a better job with that.
    Telemecanique was a French brand of industrial automation components, they were bought by Schneider Electric later on, now they are probably a part of Eaton.
    Line matching transformers were probably meant for telephone applications where you need to work with 600Ω line impedance; if so, they'll have a limited frequency response and considerable distortion from going into saturation if you drive them too hard. Best checked with a scope and signal generator.

      If I get time I will test out one of those transformers and see what it is capable of.

    Are you thinking of winding a Tesla coil?
    PS. Aliexpress has a 24x32 pixel thermal camera for £25.57

      24x32? That's something.. LOL!

      No, I just couldn't resist those nice shiny brand new rolls of enamelled copper wire. Will use those for transformer windings and chokes. The entire box of all those goodies was only £28. Hmmn, not many pixels. I would like to get a proper FLIR camera sometime in the future, most probably one of those ones you plug into your phone.

    The chinese thermal cameras are really good now - the ones made by Infiray, Topdon and Hikmicro particularly (many of them have sensors made by Infiray). They're actually better than Flir - although Flir can make better ones they are restricted in export by the US government so China have caught up. Stupid regulations ! Expect to pay £2-300 for a decent one.

      I did give rough prices during the video. The mixed box at the end was £28.

    Couldn't believe that first item, the IR thermometer. I literally just watched a video of a flat earther trying to measure the surface of the sun with one of those. One of the dumbest things I've ever seen.
    Great video as always..... 🌡️

      Lol, the space between the Sun and Earth is cold. It's the radiation from the Sun hitting the atmosphere and causing friction with it that causes the warmth. If you have ever been in a plane and looked at the flight statistics you'll see that typically it is -48 to -50 Degrees Centigrade below zero.
      Flat earthers think that Australia doesn't exist, that they are all actors. Tell that to the Australian flat earthers, lol.
