Back from a YouTube ban! Faulty soap foam dispenser - with schematic

  • If you wonder why there haven't been videos for a while, it's because I received what I believe to be a very unfair strike from RUclips for a harmless 18 second short where I singed the end of my beard with a lighter in a controlled manner.
    I bought this unit a while ago for a long term test of different units. Many of the other units had annoying technical issues, including one that saw its own foam and kept squirting more out, thinking a hand was there. And another that would crash and turn off every time foam was dispensed (probably an undersized lithium cell).
    These units do tend to wear out over time, and a very common issue is the foam enhancer blocking. I may force some water through the foam enhancer in reverse in this unit to try and clear any debris out of the very fine moussing mesh. It does sound slower than I recall, so it could have an issue with loss of lubricant on the pumps wobble plate, or is perhaps struggling to push the liquid through a clogged mesh.
    Nice logical circuitry though, and the software seems to be pretty good too. The standby battery life is exceptional given that the hand sensor remains active 24/7.
    The foam pumps in these units are a dedicated unit designed for the many hand-soap or sanitiser foaming dispensers in use. The use of foam instead of liquid soap means that a refill lasts ages, but still gives you the effect of a good portion of soap.
    The sensor PCB was very nicely implemented, with it's little black foam surrounds to ensure low infrared leakage between the emitter and detector. A test of the detector showed a massive change in resistance between ambient light and pointing an infrared remote at it. Literally from 10's of megohms to tens of kilohms.
    If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:- www.bigclive.c...
    This also keeps the channel independent of RUclips's algorithm quirks, allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty.

      @@wardfiction5693 You're probably right but YT still allow people to post videos of themselves doing ridiculously dangerous things e.g Sam Pilgrim recently posted a video (still up) of him riding a home modified bike with 24" circular saw blades for wheels. No injuries in that example but there are loads of videos of people hurting themselves doing dangerous things, the only way this would be different is because you "hurt" yourself on purpose.

If a recommendation is bad you can use the lil three dots by it (or possibly click and hold on mobile) and either tell it not to recommend it, or block the entire channel.

    my dad had a repairman come out and look at it. and he found that the compressor
    had locked up, so he took it back to his shop, and jolted it with 220 V and UN-froze it .
    unbeknownst to either of them, a curious little boy had played with the thermostat
    turning it up and down, causing the compressor to seize... Wonder who it could have been? [ Pointing to my younger self ] 🤐

      That's why they have 5 minute lockouts on the compressors now, so if the compressor was running and it stops, it won't restart for 5 minutes, allowing the pressures to equalize and ensuring the compressor will NOT lock up. It's not your fault the unit was shoddily designed... :)

      I've had an idea for a channel I've been tossing around for years. Mainly just for the heck of it, not to make money. But the absolute dread of dealing with this kind of nonsense just deflates any kind of excitement over it.
      But the idea that your livelihood, you're entire brand can be memory-holed with very little recourse? We don't let our government get away with that. Of course government is crappy too but there's a whole legal profession and trillions of words written on the subject in that context. But you check a box and agree to some terms and thousands of years of case law and common sense disappear.
      The incentives and power dynamics on these platforms are completely backwards and they will never change unless they are forced to. But I don't see that happening anytime soon because politicians can't even agree on which direction the sun sets. Ok, sue a platform, good luck with that. The mediums and mechanisms are novel, but the fundamental issues aren't, save for a handful of things. But we've been dicking around with nonsense rather than writing laws to deal with the radical changes the internet has brought to society. And so the corps get to make and enforce the laws.
      For all its thousands of faults at least the voting system on Reddit empowers a community to make certain content choices, of course often at the expense of protecting any minority opinion in said community. But then that minority is mostly free to go create their own community. That's at least 1% closer to what free people (obviously many groups have never had the liberty of self-determination) are familiar with.
      People shouldn't be allowed to manipulate or scam, but sheesh otherwise godspeed to the content creators, even the ones I despise.

      I enjoyed reading your arguments. You are indeed right! It is not fair and it should not be legal to be able to delete all the effort of a person or to censor certain videos and ideas just because they are against the philosophy you support. The truth is not imposed, it is imposed by itself, which is why it is simply inappropriate and wrong to censor. Especially when those who censor have an agenda they want to impose. I say that social networks should obey the laws of the state, otherwise the virtual reality is superior to the real reality and the rules of one network or another are superior to the laws of the state, the constitution and democracy. Totally abnormal stuff. A friend's RUclips channel was permanently deleted, I was unable to help him recover it. My friend is a biologist and had a vast collection of plant videos and wanted to make a flora video with plants from Romania. All the information was lost. All the work of several years. And that's because he once posted images of a deer caught in a poacher's trap. He wanted to show the illegal things and youtube deleted his account for cruelty and violence.. How wrong can this be thing? Even worse is the impossibility of talking to a human being, you talk to volunteers without decision-making power and to robots... This is RUclips.

      RUclips was probably like: "oh no we must take care of the little kids on this platform who already have a beard that they dont harm themselves. The parents dont need to set up protections because we will handle this" and with other channels/videos that are way worse and way more dangerous: "should we investigate? How about no!

It's been running for almost 4 years now with daily use on the same 4 AA lithium iron disulfide Energizer cells I put in it when I got it. I am amazed at both the efficiency of the IR sensor and the reliability of the pump mechanism. It's shockingly good. Possibly the best generic Chineseium product I've ever gotten. Thanks again.

    If the problem recurs, I wonder if you could make an enhancement to send a controlled higher higher voltage surge to it to perhaps kickstart the motor if it has gotten a bit frozen.
    I know it's completely unrelated, but I'm thinking of an additional capacitor they added to my house outdoor A/C condenser unit to kickstart the compressor with more "umph," which they told me was a good thing. (I thought I may have gotten scammed but this additional capacitor is in the schematic of the unit as an optional component.)

    Questions should always be raised over platforms where editorial freedom and liberty isn't respected. A purge and a ban is *not* OK when a content warning would be perfectly appropriate. It also seems rather odd that it happens only _after_ one bearded viewer with a certain orientation complimented the similarly bearded creator, when there might be forces in existence which don't like _„bourgeois“_ communities forming around commonalities in beard growth and non-heterosexual orientation... 🌈🔇🤔
    But all that aside; Glad to see the dispenser still works, and that the fix was a relatively simple one. Goodness knows how many of those get needlessly thrown away when the motor jams, and especially the number that get put into general waste (Rather than WEEE'd ♻) because most probably don't realise there's a PCB and an MCU in it. 🗑🌍🙁

    RUclips gave this channel a ban? There is a channel called Official Duck Studios (ODS) where the gun who runs it points a real rifle at his friend's head and pulls the trigger. The insane criminal negligence of that channel blows my mind. They make it a point to violate every safety rule of gun handling and they've been doing it on youtube for years with no repercussions at all. He even shot his cameraman in the chest with a crossbow bolt on accident. Hundreds of people have report that channel for extreme negligence and nothing happens ever. Clive burns some of his own beard hairs? BANNED.
    I unironically think its because Clive has talked about gay life on this channel, and its been proven that the vast majority of human reviewers that youtube hires are from extremely homophobic countries.
