@Dave Micolichek Sorry, sir, but I would like to inform you that I do not live in my mother's basement, as I don't even have a fucking basement, you sad sad mong. Please never contact me again. Yours Sincerely, Joseph.
I could just imagine the neighbors watching that go down outside. LOL. It certainly cannot be too good opening the door up with all the mercury vapor fumes. Great video.
@@Kids_Scissors Pretty sure he does these videos with some form of isolation. A.k.a., not connected to the power grid. As for the power lines above where he's situated, methinks those be fairly well insulated, most likely enough to prevent the microwaves from disrupting their function.
i sharpened my knives on those little ceramic things on one of those magnatrons like a month ago, my understanding is you can only get the cancer by fulfilling one requirement: make dust out of it
Certainly it did handle it quite well, and with better cooling might even take more, however Photon could maybe have pushed much more into it if the transformers hadn't caught on fire. A different , more cappable power supply, instead of the built in transformer, is what I think would help to successfully put more power into the tube.
THIS was a true PhotonicInduction video straight from the old times! Wow! I have never seen anyone overamp a microwave before. I have an ANCIENT 1971 GE Microwave Oven that is enormous, but that old thing makes the best food, even today, and it's all original and unrestored. It struggles with popcorn, but not badly. I love my 44-year-old microwave!
@C Not true, direct exposure to microwaves causes heating of polar molecules, such as water in cells in body, which could lead to damage possibly to cancer. But yeah I get what you are saying, unless you start doing some stupid shit with it, its designed so that it cant harm you/cause damage.
You seriously crack me up. Where you replace the transformer, and keep going. I have yet to predict what you're going to actually do next in the middle of any of your videos. It's always funny as hell.
Thanks for these videos dude, I moved about a thousand miles away from my destructo buddies but at least I can still enjoy what you do across the ocean.
Well, I found your channel a few days ago and I just finished watching all of your videos. They were very entertaining and I had a lot of fun watching you. You are very amazing and a very likable person. Give Ashley my regards and continue doing the things you love to do. Thank you! :)
You mate, have the best videos on these topics by far! hats off! You should have heard me laugh when you said "I couldn't help myself guys, I had to put another transformer in!"
I'm really surprised the cap didn't explode, or at least the diode. Or maybe it did, and I just didn't notice because of the epic transformer flames LOL.
If you observe glassblowers, you'll see them take a small torch flame (usually very hot, though, like oxy-propane or another oxygen fortified flame) and heat a small area. Once a localized section is hotter than the rest, a small amount of pressure from the person on the end of the blowpipe will bulge a section out. This is just doing it all with the power of a microwave.
Thanks for showing us the epic microwave BOOM, I've been following your videos for quite a while now, they're extremely exciting! I've just started making my own science videos (I just uploaded my first videos this week!) so that I can hopefully help more people aspire to look at the world from a scientific perspective. And if any people here want to see more science videos, please feel free to look at my channel! I'm making these videos in my spare time, and as a grad student who's trying to put himself through school while supporting his parents, your support and viewership would be much appreciated! Thanks guys :D
granite will melt into igneous in about 15 minutes in a regular microwave, probably wouldn't take too long in a microwave like this one.... Always a pleasure watching this guy.
Mr. Merp they did, now the only good show i can find is Dovetastic, id reccomend his channel, he started the microwave show thing, just dont get mad at him destroying brand new things, hes an artist, he buys the stuff brand new, microwaves it, and sells the result for 5x the price, he also microwaved a microwave that was microwaving a lightbulb, he set off a few car alarms, set off a minor earthquake, and knocked out power to his neighborhood :)
LMFAO! "Damage Report Mr Spock"! Man I love you guys! I hope you're not catering for Discovery channel now though. Keep the personality mate! Great stuff here!
Yep, it's possible, china have recently come up with exactly that (after copying the US of course, but patent theft is legal in china), they say it's a riot control thing though (more people control to make sure they stop trying to push democracy in the communist state of china)...
@@colenichols Sadly they are not really designed around generating square waves, thus it would likely fail to send data. Instead, they just generate a noisy sine wave in the 2.4GHz range, though it can vary a decent amount. The tech for the magnetron has not really changed since the 1950s since no one wants a new patent, and the current design works well enough.
what if you powered the microwave with your industrial MOT? i want to see something blow up that isnt the stupid mot, because anyone can blow up a MOT :)
Viewer # 28,471. Oh wow..... It's time for Busta to energise the windings, there's a microwave to bust! :D I have to say that the smoke, sparks and flaaaaaames you got coming out of that were quite impressive! I bet that notched-up a few amps on the amp-meter! Another transformer in the microwave? Aaaaah, but Mr. Photon..... You forgot _"The Mega MOT"_ This microwave could have been ripped up to silly-stupid-kilowatts with _"The Mega MOT"_ stuffed in there on the power circuit. :D The way I would've rigged it, is..... A standard MOT on 240v and use the 'heater circuit' in it so as to get the heater in the magnetron working, then _"The Mega MOT"_ could have taken care of current-delivery duties by stuffing some serious kilowatts into the magnetron for the optimum poppage! Would that have worked? How would _"The Mega MOT"_ have coped on the output of Busta though? Do you reckon that _"The Mega MOT"_ would have handled a slight overvoltage for a few minutes? Another thing as well..... When that second transformer let loose in that microwave..... *_What the heck was that bottle-rocket screaming-off sound, and where was it coming from in there?!!_* ABSOLUTE LMAO!! Yes, I heard you laughing your backside off in the lounge as it let loose. That was a classic _I POPPED IT !!_ laugh right there! I have to say, I screamed out a loud laugh more-or-less at the same time! ROFL!! How on earth did the magnetron survive this? Or didn't it? I've still yet to work out where that bottle-rocket scream-off sound came from in there! :D Was it that high-voltage capacitor which is found in the majority of microwaves whistling-off because you overvolted and vented it? If you still have the microwave and the magnetron is still workable, could you do a re-take on this and use either _"The Mega MOT"_ in there or one of those gold transformers connected to the magnetron? Really, I think it's something that we'd all like to see..... _WAAAAY TOO MANY VOLTS_ stuffed into a magnetron! :D Let's see what shapes could be thrown in the microwave and what interesting scientific sounds could be gotten out of that magnetron! I think a lot of us would be mighty impressed if you could do to a microwave, what you did to that toaster and kettle! Imagine it now..... The world's first domestic 3kW microwave. I am sure that it'll be a RUclips First! Go on, get in there.... RIP IT RIIIIIIIIIGHT UP and let's discover the Ssssatisfaction! I wanna see it Glowiiiiiiiiin' in there! Thanxx for showing, -BoomBoxDeluxe. _9th March 2015, 18.55_
try to hook your 2kV high power transformer on the magnetron (ofc powering the filament) and cool the fuck out of the magnetron, should give a nice show.
Hello, I want to congratulate you on superb audio. I enjoy your comments tremendously. Thank you for how ever you accomplished this. Keep up the great videos. Cheers, Gary

Never try that with a microwave it can cause radiation

I can smell the fumes
Never expected to see you on this channel.. lol
Those free-forming plasma arcs never cease to amaze me, awesome vid Photon!
I can feel the cancer from here.
RF causes heat, rather than genetic damage. Cancer is generally caused by long term exposure. Beryllium poisoning is possible.
Stop watching Fortnite

The smoke and beryllium dust if you break the magnetron

Keep doing this awesome (and slightly psychopathic) show that you make.
6:15 "Dinner's ready" xD
ITS SUPPER TIME!!!!!!
The light bulbs seem undercooked.
Love watching these videos. Nothing like a good bit of alternative usage of appliances to start the day!
I love the electric sounds it was making. lol
This is easily the best cooking show on RUclips!
Does anyone care to explain why the glass bulges out in this way?
Plasma forming on the inside caused a hot spot, the glass may be pressurised or under vacuum, either way, soft glass will either bulge or pull inward.
***** That'l teach it
High pressure sodium & halide bulbs have pressure in them, that says it. Normal bulbs have a vacuum with filaments.
Noam Chongsky Same as when you cook food, you need it spin or it will just sit in a hot spot and not heat up evenly.
If you observe glassblowers, you'll see them take a small torch flame (usually very hot, though, like oxy-propane or another oxygen fortified flame) and heat a small area. Once a localized section is hotter than the rest, a small amount of pressure from the person on the end of the blowpipe will bulge a section out.
This is just doing it all with the power of a microwave.
Your neighbors must love you man :)

i dropped mah hot pocket
"Is it a good idea to microwave this?" but it's led by a science maniac
i,m growing another head just from watching this video
i love these episodes when you got the step further and truely fuck up the microwave, great vid mate
That poor transformer saturated so quickly after you went over the rated voltage.
The standard operating conditions had the transformer well into saturation already.
***** Well isn't the core air-gapped to limit current? This should also help with saturation... but at full power draw it might not...
Whoa!.... the sound effects are CRAZY! nice one ,man
The masks! They do nothing! (please tell me someone will get this)
Yess lol is it a good idea to microwave this
YES! That show was awesome! Think they stopped making it though.

Would be interesting to see the microwave being killed by a huge 3 ton power hammer press, or slowly crushed by a hydraulic press. Awesome video.
Wrong channel m9
Go to the Hydraulic press channel
Thank you for educating me about doing this to microwaves. I will be sure to be prepared.
Is it actually possible to fry a magnetron?
I saw one with a burned antenna before lol
Hahaha wow epic! THose bulbs sure turned into nice glass ornaments! Thanks for uploading!
WAS THAT SET ON COOK OR DEFROST?
As you can tell I wasn't set up with anything the computer wasn't getting the electricity it was a direct power source
It was set to
"Depths of hell: 40000 F"
That Person With A MLP Icon Who Starts Flamewars DAMN! dat username!
"We definitely destroyed that transformer, but..." I love the 'but..." at the end!
I have SOOOOOOOOOO Missed your Uploads my good man. Please try to find the time for more ;-)
