@AlexSword13ch 2 года назад

probably?? do you really think he does not know what he is doing? it's all for show. in the scene in the house when he plugs in the voltmeter you dont see that he puts the to wires (black and red) in a circuit (it;s film in such a way that you dont see it) so that when he connects to the socket it will make a spark. He knows what he is doing. 100% all the time. so it's just a show

@wormhole331 2 года назад

At 2:09 the transformer isn't really blowing up. He rigged a undervolted capacitor to the ac lines ,that couldn't be seen, and would blow up when plugged it. Seems to be one of his favorite tricks. Even tho most of the mishaps are staged it doesn't take away the entertainment value for me.

@@AlexSword13ch the DMM if not from centuries ago [figure of speech] would have protection built in for total dumbashz so that wouldnt happen even if you made that mistake.

@tristangates2797 3 года назад

We used to do this all the time at the entertainment lighting company I used to work at. It was super janky, but we had a box of 2x5-15 to 1xL5-20 adapters to run 220v moving lights that we used far more then should probably be admitted for home wedding or small corporate event type shows. Then we went to set up some lights 230V for a small show on the USS Midway museum. Despite my best tries and some then baffling multi-meter readings we never got it to work, and had to come up with some 110V lights. A few years later I found out that ships typically use delta power because the insulation performance of the jackets of power cables was not well trusted in marine environments, so the systems were designed to have as low of potential to ground as possible. This means that old ships like the Midway and even many new cruise ships have two hots and a ground instead of hot-ground-neutral like you'd typically see on a 110V system.

Well, it's actually 220V and 127V. And the reason the lower voltage is 127 instead of 120 is so wiring two phases together gives you exactly 220V, which allows you to do what Mehdi did more reliably (but you probably want to wire up a proper socket instead of making this two plug monstrosity he did).

He didn't save it from burning down. He foiled their attempt to get an insurance payout so they could tear it down and start again.

@@dhawthorne1634 I don't know how he wasn't more angry at the contractors for allowing that to happen. That was just pure recklesness on their part and they very well would've burnt down his house if he didn't notice that.

My mum called me one day and complained about how weird the vacuum cleaner sounded. She had it plugged into an outlet that she had installed herself after she took down a radiator. 400 volts made the vacuum cleaner go bananas. It still makes me laugh every time I think about it.

@TheJugiChan 4 года назад

It was a nice effect x) Obviously he just has a small charge/firecracker on top of his multimeter, that's why it is conveniently tilted. He wouldn't risk breaking a multimeter just for the effect. Plus if you measure current like that when you are supposed to measure voltage it will only start welding the probe heads, no bangs (I've done that mistake a couple of times)

@vladchira521 4 года назад

@@TheJugiChan maybe he has a capacitor thats not rated for high voltage

@TheJugiChan 4 года назад

@@vladchira521 The casings in multimeters are pretty thick. When stuff blows up inside you just hear a noise, definitively you don't see sparks shoot out. Multimeters have a fuse inside that protects the rest of the electronics and you can only hear a faint click when it blows. As fun as it would be to think he messed up, again, all of these "accidents" are for entertainment, but I do still appreciate them.

Seriously one of the best videos you've done. The spaghetti twist was amazing! Is it normal for contractors to just cut thru live wires and let water drip everywhere?? Seems like the water would be a big problem for essentially everything.

@OkenWS 4 года назад

Yes. Worse than that I had a landlord in Cardiff who had a flat energised and occupied by a tenant for months while his crackhead builders worked on the flat above. They took the sink off and didn't drain and cap, resulting in quite a lot of water running into the building's fire alarm system and her lights. He refused to return her even a penny's rent while she had buckets in the flat and couldn't safely live there. Absolute scumbag.

@autarchprinceps 3 месяца назад

It's kind of cute, how in America when they want to have higher power they take two phases and make 205 or 240 V, while here they take 3 phases of 230 V to make a 400 V, 5 pin, with a monstrocity of a plug. How many amps does such a North American "high power" socket typically carry at maximum? I know the ones in our house at least are 32 A max, so 12800 W.
