Motor And PCB Pop 

You're right photon, there is always something to learn from destructive testing. Always seems like those capacitors go first on those boards. So now we know, we just need better capacitors. Repeat the test and move on to the next problem component, and pretty soon we'll have indestructible electronics.

*I miss you Photonic Induction!*

3:26 Arc-Reactor on a budget

The motor has been sacrificed to provide fun.

3:00 Portal initialization 3:15 Almost there 3:19 Portal online 3:27 Portal failure

'when this thing hits 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious shit.'

0:58 Contrary to popular belief, alcohol and electricity DO mix.

They should overvolt a tesla model s and see how fast it goes :D

And the first "Orbital Welder" was born...

Oh Photon! Where have you gone? We miss you! 😢

This is the most powerful motor I've seen recently. They man has talent. I just came to this video. He would be making made bank if he came back for more content.

Have you thought about buying a high-speed camera? Stuff like this would look pretty impressive.

Far better than K POP

I miss those days. Please, upload more! :D

I love the way you filmed that! ( the 360 degree shit)

Andy, you should try recording in 60fps, those slow mo's would look a lot smoother.

overclocking a washing machine motor - photonic style :)

Awesome footage as usual. Up to Photonic standards. Love the grunting variac at the beginning while popping the caps. that motor must have made 20 or 30 k. RPM's.

I'm grateful for channels like these, I get to watch the fun, but not kill myself in the process.

3:15 looks like rgb in my gaming pc 😂

Imagine putting that motor on a bike and going that's speed

I always wonder what kind of a RPM the engines make before they pop. Could be a real shrapnel hazard too.

A most excellent conflagration! What an exquisite end to a wonderful day. Thanks Photon!

You got half of it right by doing this indoors, but you need to do these experiments directly on the carpet.

I still remember my first PCB pop, capacitor bits up in my face :O!

I think the spin of the camera is perfect. always seems to be in the right place at the right time. The quality of your video's is wonderful almost like being there

That image of that motor with all that arcing is so cool!

Hola, que pena escribirle in spanish, mi ingles es muy basico, pero me gustaria saber que tipo de circuitos usan para hacer esos cortos circuitos y si quizas yo puedo hacer corto circuito usando nada mas la linea aqui en Colombia por ejemplo es de solo 110v o se debe usar algun circuito de proteccion o algo similar, gracias.

major ultraviolet comin off that thing towards the end! LOL

The way the electricity whips around the whole thing makes me wonder how they're doing with cold fusion lol

I'm not the worst knife in the drawer but I would need to study 18 hours a day for a month to know about the stuff he can do while being fucked up on god know what.. I mean he (you, if you read this) knows all the wiring of input outputs of allmost anything. Its like he's got 20 years experience in electronic AND electricity and so now even drunk he can safely blow stuff up without getting hurt and destroying the house.. I respect that.

Straight up coolest video I seen in a WHILE

Is this all a part of what we call UL testing in the us?

That is a really well balanced motor. Any specifics?

The universal motor seems it’s taking us into the future

I wish Photon could buy a new slow motion camera...

Good poppage, as usual. Thanks for posting!

How you did 360°

After 8 years RU-vid recommending this video 🤣🤣😍

new set of brushes and shes as good as new!

Imagine my disappointment at stumbling onto this channel only 1 week ago to then discover that Andy has jacked it in.

Teacher: you can’t smell videos Me:

Thank you for what you do.Would have been nice to see voltage ,current and rpm relationship !

I miss you Photon! Those days where fun :'(

Could watch this stuff all day.

Thanks for subscribing mate it really means a lot

i still reckon the 360 view would work well with a high speed camera, would be awesome. Great vid as always!

Imagine, this guy has all his neccesities during a zombie apocolapsy

Great video. Thanks for posting this. Have a nice day.

Yeah, you can tell a bit in this video but other than that your videos are absolutely amazing! Ive been subbed since you had those crazy lasers!

RU-vid algorithm: Am I joking to you?

Love the rotating camera view!

Anyways, awesome video Andy! keep them coming and rolling :)

I ain't havin it. His trademark saying. Love that because when he says it your know it's about to get real! 😁

I'm liking the 360-degree slow-motion burnouts. Good idea, that.

i really want to know how many rpms they were getting on that motor

Looooool this dude makes blowing stuff up an art matrix style!!!!!

these slow motion circle-arounds are making me feel like I'm on acid

Aahh, I love the smell of fried commutator in the morning.

That cam is awesome mate what an idea ;)

I think Marty went back to the future

Is that ac motor is from the portable window fan from haier

Have you tried counter weights to reduce the shaking/jerking?

If you threw enough voltage into a motor like that do you think you could turn it into a brushless design? (as in the voltage just jumps to the rotor instead of having to go through the shitty brushes)

Mmm, got to love the smell of popping electrolytics in the morning

3:24 88 mph !!!! doc we did it !

Bros casually opening a portal to another dimension

That is freaking awesome ! That motor can really take some abuse it seems

This is cool folks and i expect more very soon : )

That second motor burnout looked like something you'd find in Black Mesa. Rotary Plasmonic Entanglement Capacitor or something :)

0:12 what a reactor looks like

That some time travel machine right there boi!

I love that rotor cam, when i started i wished u done somethn like this befor, and i have to ask.. are you on ur nees? or are you just that short?

Fun videos, but Dear Lord, tell me you are not breathing those fumes.

Great vid as usual!

dat motor noise tho.. should make it as ringtone :)

The motor with the lights look futuristic

I think that the title how to turn an electric motor into an carbon arc flashlamp would also fit 😂

Is it possible to overload induction motor if there isn't any brushes?

love the camera effect

Another belter! You've got to get a tacho on that motor!

Wow that motor was impresive.

I recently learned from experience that old capacitors have an electrolyte that burns a green flame(and burns very well too) so youc an turn it into a green candle.

3:47 I can smell that from here... oh sorry, that’s the neighbours barbecue.

We miss you man.

I really do wonder what that motor blowout would look like at 200fps or faster... Oh and, thanks for sharing!

see if there is a way to increase shutter speed? (needs more light though) most likely there if there is a "manual" option on your camera

What did you say that box was?

Nah need MOAR EPS! (Explosions per second)

Для съёмки круговой используете Steadicam?

I used to work for a company that made driver units for electric vehicles. In one project for a military application we had units delivering over 1100 amps. When those capacitors blew we would wake up the neighborhood hehe. It was great. :D

The last one is TV power supply?

That SMPS was'nt to happy with you ;) nice burnout specialy when you slow it down. how much did you give it?

"I canna give ye any more captain" 😤 "He's dead Jim"... 😒 😎👍☘🍺

What would happen to a brushless motor if it would get a bit too much power :)?

1:02 - Photon's laugh is actually kinda scary

Good job, maybe you could put longer carbon sticks, looks like it ran out.

Crikey, where did you find that old Hoover washing machine motor? That's a relic of the past!

You released the blue smoke. Again.

You're one step away from creating an arc reactor :)
