I DID IT! I used my flyback transformer and ZVS circuit to make SUPER ARCS!

    This video is sponsored by Arc Industries, helping you bridge the gap since 1950

    Mehdi: "Don't try this at home!" Mehdi, 3 seconds later: "If you want to know how I made this..."
  • Mehdi: “Never try this at home!!!!” Also Mehdi: disconnects house safety features
  • Most of the time he shocks himself for educational and entertainment value, but in this video he reaches 100% mad scientist mode and I love it.

    I've never seen a man so happy to almost get electrocuted Edit: Since so damn many of y'all think I'm new to this channel, let me resphrase my statement. Out of all his videos so far, I've never seen him so happy to almost be electrocuted. A now stop "welcoming me to the channel" and telling me to watch his other videos. I've been here for years people.

    "Boom!" - Frankie the Flyback. Those arcs are massive for a 12 volt battery input. Really. There's an inherent risk of internal damage though if the high voltage is allowed to arc to anything but the high voltage ground wire. I think you've got your safety all squared away though :P Let me know if you need some design help with the Marx. I've built a few, and they have design consideration to take into account.

    One day he’ll stop uploading, and that’s when we’ll know.

    "don't try this at home" "but if you want to try this at home, here are all the schematics and circuit diagrams so you can build it yourself"

    Lets be honest this dude is way better at teaching us than teachers at schools😂
  • @dannnmerkle7930
    The frequency to pain graph is the funniest thing I've seen in a while.
  • @theaviator1152
    Instead of being full of old toys and books, Mehdi’s basement is gonna be full of blackened transformer units and blown circuits

    The look of joy on his face is so pure, this made me incredibly happy. Good job
  • @SimplyChem32
    As a precaution, I would recommend stabilizing your HV wire to something and holding a non-conductive ground wire towards the output, in order that you don't inadvertently reach towards the ground of the circuit while also holding the HV output / 6:28 Rather than that, it's a really well designed circuit with the slow-rise implementation you've done.

    December 31st 2020, 11:59 p.m.: Electroboom succeeds in creating a circuit that generates gazillion volts. There is no 12:00 a.m.

    "oh it smells like ozone" never heard a sane person say that

    The only non-Science related part of his videos is when he says “Hi”
