@Bobby Rubarb that's an interesting idea. I was thinking instead use the lenses to bring the output of a solar panel up when it's cold/dark ECT. I've got a feeling there is a risk of melting the panel the rest of the time when it's sunny But if they where extremely heat resistant I don't see why the output of a solar panel couldn't be increased at a lower cost than building more by simply building lenses,mirrors and what have you to concentrate the radiation onto the panel(s) you already have. Even just a more consistent output would be helpful. I think this has already been done though. I recall something about birds being vaporized in the beams. Perhaps instead you could point the lenses at a huge tower of metal sticking out the ocean so one side gets really hot and one side gets cold...I'm pretty sure that produces current,maybe an electrician or physicist will be nice enough to chime in and give us their opinion.
@Bobby Rubarb the mega reflector thing is the same idea. It didn’t work out well. It used mirrors instead of focus. I have similar thoughts. We have sunlight and water, What can we do with these to make useful energy...? Also, Thoughts like this get people killed..!!
True. The "problem" with energy is not really one of availability - it's mostly a problem of storage and transport. Even the energy stored in "fossil fuels" is fundamentally ancient _solar_ energy, encapsulated into chemical bonds which are conveniently stable enough to last for millions of years but unstable enough to be released by mere burning. The challenge is converting solar energy into a form which can be safely and compactly transported and used elsewhere and/or on demand at a later time - ideally, without too many toxic byproducts.
@Bobby Rubarb it is already used, the great advantage of solar panels is that they fit on your roof and take in general less space. In place with enough sun and space set ups with mirrors that focus the light to heat water are already used. Both has its advantages and disadvantages snd neither should be discarded for the other
In the 1980’s, my best friend and I ordered one of these from a scientific catalog...basically these were about 14” square and were from overhead projectors. We had a LOT of fun melting pennies and general mayhem!

You almost got the ancient way of cutting trough rock ,the Egyptians among others perfected this and created some of the greatest archeological findings .
Insolation energy is ca. 1325 W/M^2.. and that lens he's using looks to be maybe 0.75 M^2, so figure a rough 950W - call it 1kW in the focused spot. That's a pretty good flow of power, about the same as a domestic space heater with all of its heat output being dissipated in several square inches. Definitely enough to heat a rock to melting temperature at the surface. Too bad the lens can't pull a fiber focus, to say, a few square mm.. that could be some serious death-ray stuff. With that energy density, you could blast chunks off of it.
The more more I watch these type of videos, the more I see Pyramid from Egypt easy as I never thought you can build. Thanks to Hollywood and education and documentary dumbing us down.
@@bingflosby With the amount of megalithic structures there are, lenses, or pieces of them, would certainly exist, if someone finds that and proves it to be such, I will believe this hypothesis, until then, I will not
Yeah except if you melt granite you don't get granite. It has too cool under pressure for millions of years for the crystalline structure to appear. You'd just have red or black basalt. Is there any factual evidence of ancient Egyptians producing lenses capable of melting granite?
Im 58 now. When i was in my late teens i had a fresnel page magnifier that i left standing up between som books on my desk shelf in my bedroom. The sun hit it at an angle only hitting about half the lens. when i got home there was a lot of plastic smell/fumes in my room and the side of my old AM/FM handheld radio was melted in a crooked line down the side where the lens had focused as the sun moved by. I think i dodged a bullet on that one since it didnt start a fire thank god. I kept the lens in a much safer place after that. Its amazing how dangerous seemingly harmless things can end up being if one is not careful.
Because heat is less valuable and more difficult to handle than electricity. Imagine how you are going to deal with 1000 deg C stuff, plus you need cooling. You can make everything from electricity but not the other way round.
Solar panels have an efficiency of about 20% even at the smallest of scales. To use the light of an area of the sun from a Fresnel lens, the user must change the state of water to steam and then produce enough steam to spin a turbine. This method is poorly efficient in the small scale and expensive to setup and maintain. Heat can produce electricity in the small scale directly using a thermo-electric but the efficiency is again far less than a solar panel, and again the upfront cost is hight. If the user were to use light from the sun to heat then a Fresnel lens is again poorly efficient compared to using a mirror. Refraction from a singlet lens has focal lengths according to color, so the user cannot focus tightly sunlight. This is why large scale solar farms in the desert use curved mirrors, they can focus far more tightly than a Fresnel lens.
@@AZ-if2mj So what you are implying is that using focused solar light to produce electricity is less or even a lot less efficient than 20%. Seen as how solar panels have 20% efficiency. Are you sure about what you're saying? And this is not taking into account the great pollution that solar panels produce and will produce. Nothing is hard to set up once it passes the prototypes stages and has been turned into an industrial process. I'm pretty sure most of the highly efficient ways to obtain energy are being willingly ignored or "buried" in order to control mankind. Call me paranoid if you will. I don't give a watt...
As a kid we played in a small old abandoned house in TX. One hot dry summer day I was playing with a magnifying glass to see if I could burn newspaper. Well, i could then I couldn’t put it out! Burned the house down. Fortunately the neighbors and fire department put the fire out. Someone bought the lot and built a new home. Still, I did a dumb thing. Lesson learned.
@@chuckcrunch1 It taught me to think ahead. I was outside in dry grass, no water hose. The paper and grass quickly took off burning and my little sneakers couldn’t stomp it out. 🤦♂️ Scary for a kid. I later became a Boy Scout and learned much more about fire safety and “Be Prepared”
I swear I was thinking that there must of been away of melting rock to shape the stone used in these megaliths we see around the world , lost civilisations
And now we know how the ancients cut stones and melted the rocks. Now we need to know where they got the lenses from. I am sure these type of T. V. s this lense came from didn't exist or did they?????
No this still does not solve that mystery. This is igneous rock once melted turns into obsidian and does not return to its original state. Granite I believe once melt turn into a transparent crystal but each type of rocks have varied result but none of which never return into a rock. If the ancient able to produce such a lens, as you can see they'll go blind without eye protection especially on a large scale and how long will you think a lens this size would cut a 10-inch thick rock.
@@737simviator If only the ancient possessed such technologies to create vibration machines. If we pick Pyramids, for example, most drill holes found to have a continuous cutting mark on the surface of the inside shaft which puts any vibration cutting technique out of the picture.
@@adamruss1966 Egyptians made stuff out of granite that we would have a hard time making even using today's modern tools and technology. There's tool markings on sites and artifacts that suggest the use of high power tools or some sort of equivalent to modern day lathes, mills, cnc etc.
It was a Pioneer rear projection TV with around a 55 inch screen. I do know that it was from the mid-1990s. The older ones from the 90s have better Fresnel lenses. Thereal powerful ones from the 1980-1990s are smooth on one side. The ones that really do not work much at all ate he newer DLP screens, that have a wider aspect ratio.
@@mangiakoo4997 Look for old TVs that have the big square screens. The rectangular rear projections and DLPs have Fresnel lens, but they are weak. If you can find an old rear projection TV from the 80s to mid-90s, you will probably find one that has the really powerful Fresnel. Also, the bigger the screen the better. When you take it apart, the screen will be in layers. The Fresnel is the inner layer. You have to separate the layers. There are UA-cam video on how to make a frame for it. Be careful--they can instantly start fires and burn stuff simply by being in the sun. I think that is why the TV companies stopped making them so powerful in the 90s.
@@joemyheck1 thanks for the information. I'm trying to figure out a way of knowing what kind is the fresnel lens from a given TV model. So far I bought two such TVs, one had a nice spot lens and another a blurry linear lens. What's interesting, the good one is from around 1999 (Toshiba 44d9uxr), and the other one was probably older (Samsung SP-43T6 HFR)
🔵 (1.) it's called a 'Fresnel' or 'Frenzel' lens. (2.) The rock is not being melted, it's obviously a porous type of rock and the heat is cooking the organic material out of the 'Pores' of the rock. If you were to scrape away the stuff that looks like it was melting you would realize that the stone has not changed shape at all, but you have to scrape it before it cools and hardens.

Typical misleading garbage the media loves to put out to keep people in the dark.
@@seanregehr4921 I agree but watch the 'Ancient Architects' doco on it. Best, most logical one I've seen to date with evidence backing it up.
@@seanregehr4921 Yeah, I dunno why the pyramid attracts so much Alien/batshit failed specialist AND average people like to watch that low grade fast-food info and think it have some valid point.

@@seanregehr4921 What a goddamn retarded comment. Truly bizar. Why would that have to be so? They melted the granite it on the spot kid and they mixed the 'cement' also in the spot. It's not like they carried lava from the area and poured it into the mold. Not able to be proven? Those incredibly stupid theories of te so called established scientific community, those are the ones that need the most bizarre assumptions for which no evidence can be found. This one is so elegant. This video right here already backs it up big time.
Watching this brings me back on remembering Grant Thompson. RIP
What's really crazy is that that amount of energy that melted that rock is constantly on you when you're in the sun.
Not unless you're sunbathing under an old projection TV screen dude! 😎
@@denverstewart1524 Nah but I have more surface area than that lens. More energy is shining on me laying in the sun; it just isn't concentrated.

It is indeed true and crazy. Wear sunscreen, guys!
Yes it makes me wonder if the sun could cause global warming
That was pretty impressive.
That's cool as hell I wanna try this. ....thanks for sharing
This is showing me a possible way the ancient stone builder's could have been useing the sun to shape stone so accurately.

Would explain why the Egyptians revered the Sun . Oh they knew this was possible. There's how they built pyramids... Bottom up in layers And filling forms
Ay who is here before this gets recommended to everyone.
This guy is gonna get so many notifications on his old video lol.

It was recommended to me...
You saying you searched for this?
The camera instantly overheated as you put it in the light.
Words alone can’t describe how much I want to make one of these, play with it for the first 5 or so days, and then put it in the garage for like 7 years and completely forget it existed and what it did and then see this video in my recommendation again.
Bruce Wills you’re awesome man. Great acting and now great experiments 🥂💗
Thank you for your demonstration! Pretty instructive... only that it would really be better to use welder's glasses! I used discarded satellite dishes. I covered them inside with very smooth aluminum adhesive tape and got a mirror. Their hot spot had the diameter of a Euro coin. On a sunny day you cut bring a twig to open fire within a second or so! My students (6th formers...;-) !! )were fascinated. Took real effort to stop them to become instant arsonists!!;-) Physics teacher, Bebe-Gymnasium, Dresden, Germany
I used to do that to ants with a magnifying glass when i was a kid ,geez imagine some giant doing that to me ,,ahhhhhhhh
One kid had a projector tube from a theater projector. We melted stuff with it down into the ant piles
You almost got the ancient way of cutting trough rock ,the Egyptians among others perfected this and created some of the greatest archeological findings .
I've done similar experiments with giant fresnel lenses. Pretty cool
The benifits of desert living. No karens around .
I did that by accident as a kid bouncing rays through a series of magnifying glasses..
😱
Was just in the Sonoran desert about a week ago. Love it (in December, not in July), folks use to live in Cave Creek.
Those are really cool! I want one!
Insolation energy is ca. 1325 W/M^2.. and that lens he's using looks to be maybe 0.75 M^2, so figure a rough 950W - call it 1kW in the focused spot.
That's a pretty good flow of power, about the same as a domestic space heater with all of its heat output being dissipated in several square inches.
Definitely enough to heat a rock to melting temperature at the surface. Too bad the lens can't pull a fiber focus, to say, a few square mm.. that could be some serious death-ray stuff. With that energy density, you could blast chunks off of it.
You cant know it exactly dont throw numbers and conclusions without research
@@boxdial3398 he has researched. Those figures are pretty correct.
Almost as searing as the look my dad would give me when I was in trouble.
The more more I watch these type of videos, the more I see Pyramid from Egypt easy as I never thought you can build. Thanks to Hollywood and education and documentary dumbing us down.
Thank you for providing the proper pronunciation for Fresnel. It is a French name. Agustin-Jean Fresnel. FREN-el
This is how the ancient megalithic structures were built
Where’d they get the lenses though
Lol they were far more advanced than ppl give them credit for
It definitely could go some ways to explaining how vitrified forts exist.
@@skipeveryday7282 look at ancient sites in Peru the stones look melted into those shapes
@@bingflosby With the amount of megalithic structures there are, lenses, or pieces of them, would certainly exist, if someone finds that and proves it to be such, I will believe this hypothesis, until then, I will not
That's how Egyptians melted granite they poured into clay molds and made all statues
ua-cam.com/video/BsqOLCXYznE/v-deo.html&feature=emb_logo This seems to work better. Cuts, drill holes and hyroglyphs
Or poured concrete into moulds and over 5000 years it’s turned to stone ? Maybe I don’t no 😊
Yeah except if you melt granite you don't get granite. It has too cool under pressure for millions of years for the crystalline structure to appear. You'd just have red or black basalt. Is there any factual evidence of ancient Egyptians producing lenses capable of melting granite?
@@capodad2u exactly
@@capodad2u hey i had heard that granite can't be made artificially , do you have some link to read about it ?
Man that's a big lens too and a tiny tiny little point. Cool video thanks for posting.
Im 58 now. When i was in my late teens i had a fresnel page magnifier that i left standing up between som books on my desk shelf in my bedroom. The sun hit it at an angle only hitting about half the lens. when i got home there was a lot of plastic smell/fumes in my room and the side of my old AM/FM handheld radio was melted in a crooked line down the side where the lens had focused as the sun moved by. I think i dodged a bullet on that one since it didnt start a fire thank god. I kept the lens in a much safer place after that. Its amazing how dangerous seemingly harmless things can end up being if one is not careful.
Put one of those lenses in space and hold the world hostage for one million dollars.
1 million dollars isn't a lot of money anymore, Virtucon alone makes over 100 million dollars quarterly.

Was kinda hoping you would show the final result, you even said it was cool and all, what a tease.
I was expecting full meltage bro

SO WHY DO WE PISS AROUND WITH SOLAR PANELS
good question...
Because heat is less valuable and more difficult to handle than electricity. Imagine how you are going to deal with 1000 deg C stuff, plus you need cooling. You can make everything from electricity but not the other way round.
Solar panels have an efficiency of about 20% even at the smallest of scales. To use the light of an area of the sun from a Fresnel lens, the user must change the state of water to steam and then produce enough steam to spin a turbine. This method is poorly efficient in the small scale and expensive to setup and maintain. Heat can produce electricity in the small scale directly using a thermo-electric but the efficiency is again far less than a solar panel, and again the upfront cost is hight. If the user were to use light from the sun to heat then a Fresnel lens is again poorly efficient compared to using a mirror. Refraction from a singlet lens has focal lengths according to color, so the user cannot focus tightly sunlight. This is why large scale solar farms in the desert use curved mirrors, they can focus far more tightly than a Fresnel lens.
@@AZ-if2mj So what you are implying is that using focused solar light to produce electricity is less or even a lot less efficient than 20%. Seen as how solar panels have 20% efficiency. Are you sure about what you're saying? And this is not taking into account the great pollution that solar panels produce and will produce. Nothing is hard to set up once it passes the prototypes stages and has been turned into an industrial process. I'm pretty sure most of the highly efficient ways to obtain energy are being willingly ignored or "buried" in order to control mankind. Call me paranoid if you will. I don't give a watt...
@@alexlupei1228 Hilarious. You just removed the sense from common sense.
Thanks for the dragon glass DIY tutorial!
Very cool demo! Thank you.
You just know this guy was that kid running around his back yard with a old magnifier looking for something to burn ....lol
As a kid we played in a small old abandoned house in TX. One hot dry summer day I was playing with a magnifying glass to see if I could burn newspaper. Well, i could then I couldn’t put it out! Burned the house down. Fortunately the neighbors and fire department put the fire out.
Someone bought the lot and built a new home. Still, I did a dumb thing. Lesson learned.
@@DonaldDump2024 maybe it was dumb and maybe not
@@chuckcrunch1
It taught me to think ahead. I was outside in dry grass, no water hose. The paper and grass quickly took off burning and my little sneakers couldn’t stomp it out. 🤦♂️
Scary for a kid. I later became a Boy Scout and learned much more about fire safety and “Be Prepared”
@@DonaldDump2024 so in the end it was a good thing for you personally
I swear I was thinking that there must of been away of melting rock to shape the stone used in these megaliths we see around the world , lost civilisations

"Hello, this is YOUR daily dose of internet."
"This man is melting a rock using tv plane"
No
And now we know how the ancients cut stones and melted the rocks. Now we need to know where they got the lenses from. I am sure these type of T. V. s this lense came from didn't exist or did they?????
Ahhh ua-cam.com/video/BsqOLCXYznE/v-deo.html&feature=emb_logo This seems to work better. Cuts, drill holes and hyroglyphs
No this still does not solve that mystery. This is igneous rock once melted turns into obsidian and does not return to its original state. Granite I believe once melt turn into a transparent crystal but each type of rocks have varied result but none of which never return into a rock. If the ancient able to produce such a lens, as you can see they'll go blind without eye protection especially on a large scale and how long will you think a lens this size would cut a 10-inch thick rock.
@@737simviator If only the ancient possessed such technologies to create vibration machines. If we pick Pyramids, for example, most drill holes found to have a continuous cutting mark on the surface of the inside shaft which puts any vibration cutting technique out of the picture.
@@ExtraordinaryTK they e

You should do it at night time so we can see the rock glowing better.
Does it melt granite, Heard a theory the egyptions used something like it to melt and pour granite.

@@adamruss1966 Egyptians made stuff out of granite that we would have a hard time making even using today's modern tools and technology. There's tool markings on sites and artifacts that suggest the use of high power tools or some sort of equivalent to modern day lathes, mills, cnc etc.
What kind of rear projection tv did you use. Do you remember the tv model & what size screen you got it from?
It was a Pioneer rear projection TV with around a 55 inch screen. I do know that it was from the mid-1990s. The older ones from the 90s have better Fresnel lenses. Thereal powerful ones from the 1980-1990s are smooth on one side. The ones that really do not work much at all ate he newer DLP screens, that have a wider aspect ratio.
@@joemyheck1 Okay great thank you for the response, I'm going to start look hopefully I'll find one soon.
@@mangiakoo4997 Look for old TVs that have the big square screens. The rectangular rear projections and DLPs have Fresnel lens, but they are weak. If you can find an old rear projection TV from the 80s to mid-90s, you will probably find one that has the really powerful Fresnel. Also, the bigger the screen the better. When you take it apart, the screen will be in layers. The Fresnel is the inner layer. You have to separate the layers. There are UA-cam video on how to make a frame for it. Be careful--they can instantly start fires and burn stuff simply by being in the sun. I think that is why the TV companies stopped making them so powerful in the 90s.
@@joemyheck1 thanks for the information. I'm trying to figure out a way of knowing what kind is the fresnel lens from a given TV model. So far I bought two such TVs, one had a nice spot lens and another a blurry linear lens. What's interesting, the good one is from around 1999 (Toshiba 44d9uxr), and the other one was probably older (Samsung SP-43T6 HFR)
That's pretty cool. Thank you.
🔵 (1.) it's called a 'Fresnel' or 'Frenzel' lens.
(2.) The rock is not being melted, it's obviously a porous type of rock and the heat is cooking the organic material out of the 'Pores' of the rock.
If you were to scrape away the stuff that looks like it was melting you would realize that the stone has not changed shape at all, but you have to scrape it before it cools and hardens.
It didn't melt into lava and then to glass. Almost all the veiws are based on the false description.
You only get so many character spaces for your youtube title.
maybe you werent looking close enough
Your opinion has been noted, Karen.
1:56 it did melt to lava, just for a second. and obsidian is also known as volcanic glass.
