The output of the coil would be AC I wonder if there were two LED chips in reverse parallel inside the original LED devices. It's also possible that if there was a capacitor on beard then it might have been in series to limit the current through the LED on each polarity change and prevent one LED from trying to sink too much current and affect the intensity of the others.
You may find the field in front of a standard RFID card/fob reader also powers the LED in your coil.

7:30 The second coil should work just like the LED - they are both powered through the EM field of the first coil. I think the reason for the second coil, is that it is able to provide a mutual inductance, which is strong enough to provide extra power to the LED.
Also, I think the reason for the capacitors is to create an LC circuit so that the circuit resonates at a particular frequency, and u get max power transfer. I presume it's also there as a rectifier.
The leds work by having the coil in series with the led, and since the LED is a diode the ac gets rectified. One of the capacitors are for smoothing and the other possibly forms an lc tank, which makes for a much more efficient resonant inductive coupling
@Akash Gupta mutual inductance is when two coils interact, and a primary coil induces a emf in a secondary coil. This forms a transformer. For whatever reason the other coil is there for, it is not to «provide mutual inductance». The emf induced is also strongest in two parallel conductors, while the coils here is 90 degrees offset, which in turn means the magnetic fields does not induce much emf at all
Not magnetic field, but CHANGE in magnetic field induces the current.
Eh! Someone paid attention in physics class.
let's put science stream to good use
The changing magnetic flux linkage in the coil (due to the AC) causes a changing flux linkage in the LED coil, inducing a current in the LED :) The ferrite core helps to 'link' the field between the two coils better. As he said, it's basically a transformer. I have a physics exam soon and for once procrastinating on RUclips has been helpful 😅

Gundam is far from the only giant robot models out there you know that right?
I'm pretty sure the capacitor is used to make the circuit resonate to the frequency of the magnetic field. Thus, you can use a smaller coil, an still have high enough voltage to light up the LED
Yeah the trick with wireless charging and power delivery is to match the inductance of the source and receive coils plus managing the resonance of the receive circuit. Doing that allows you to use a much smaller receiver coil and use less power or increase the distance you can transmit power over.
In the crudest implementation the whole system is basically a tiny generator with the base station creating the changing magnetic field that induces a current in the receiver.
I came to comments section just to see if someone spotted the obvious. Resonance is the key to keep the size down and efficiency up :-)
Thus is why capacitors are needed, to form resonant circuit together with a coil.
Bigger is not always better. Sometimes you have to work smart instead of hard.
Aljaz came here for the same thing :)

OMG, you just spurred a whole bunch of memories. I remember Microsoft ran a promo where they gave out Xbox phone 'danglies' that lit up when your phone rang without batteries - that was back in 2001/2002. I remember my mind being blown at the time.
You are so right! I'd forgotten about these!
You need the capacitors for tuning the resonance frequency of the LC tank (Inductor-Capacitor tank). These wireless charging systems have a specific resonance frequency (roughly) determined by the square root over the inductance times capacitance, i.e., omega = sqrt(LC) in radians per second. By matching your LC tank of the wireless LED with the resonance frequency of the LC tank at the base, you'll get more efficient power transmission; and thus more wireless distance ;)
fun fact: similar principles are at work in radios
Now you're just showing off!

I was less interested in the inductance from base to led, and more interested in why the base had *2* coils perpendicular to each other, where one (or was it both) were disconnected from the power. Also a bit interested in how the fact that diodes are one-directional affects things based on the coils orientation in the inducing magnetic field.
I know right, how does the vertical base work if the coil isn't connected to anything? And don't coils produce AC voltage whereas LEDs need DC voltage?
@@romasromas73 Coils dont inherently induce AC no iirc. I believe the direction of current induced in receiving coil should depend on the direction of current in the transmitting coil. That means if the first coil is given a DC current, the second coil will have a DC current induced. And vice versa, if its given AC, the induced current should be AC too.
That might actually explain why the LED works no matter the orientation! If the led is receiving an induced AC current, then half of the time the diode will block it, and the other half it will go the allowed direction and light up the diode. Although iirc leds are diodes that are inclined to break when given a current in the wrong direction?
@@romasromas73 LEDs and diodes in general don't "need" DC, they just ignore the part of AC which doesn't flow the right way. A comment up here suggests to put two LEDs in reverse parallel to make the most of the incoming current.
Regarding field orientation on coils: As a literal rule of thumb, if you hold out your right hand like giving a thumbs up, align your fingers the same way the current in the coil is flowing and your thumb will show you the direction of the magnetic field lines in the middle of the coil.
With a coil that you want to induce a current in, only the part of the magnetic field that is perpendicular to the coils' plane can induce a current, which is why that thing needs two coils in order to cover most orientations.
@@feha92 the part about reverse current is somewhat correct, the LED (or diode, basically the same thing) will break if you go over the so called breakdown voltage. Below that, it will just block most of the current, letting just a tiny amount through.
i remember back in late 90s Nokia cell phone switched with custom LED antenna.

I think I had something similar in even before 2000 led lights up when you recieve a phone call like a Nokia 1100
exactly right..that shit blew my mind when i was little ..
OK, so in case I'm missing something here. The capacitors are to limit the voltage and eliminate high frequency noise from entering the chip. They act as a sort of buffer. As for the seemingly passive coil on the X-Base, I believe it works like a passive resonator or something of a feedback loop to activate the charging chip. The charger your friend was using needed the same thing. It just makes it turn on.
isnt this what Nikola Tesla figured out way back in the day?
Basically. He got light bulbs to glow when near his coils, but his coils were actively throwing electrons into the air, which is quite dangerous. This passes low voltage through coils to create magnetic fields (magnetic induction).
@Strange Parts can I get a link to that pdf? Making one of these sounds like a fun summer project.

video would be to have more "winding's" on the red wire in the oscillator side of the circuit, as well as using larger gauge wire and feeding the I1 with more amps using a high current transistor. Obviously this is just me spit balling and although I know the increase in loops of the red wire will help as well as the larger gauge wire, I'm not sure on the design to increase the amperage of the output on said wire.

Just did 50 turns of 0.1mm diameter wire around 6cm loop and a green LED. Works a treat. Better still if you put a 'phone on top, then instead of flashing, the LED stays on.
What makes me curious is that how can that mini led (which has less than 5mm in size) work? I mean, it took 6cm loop for the DIY version to work..
@@YudycaPutra I think the ferrite core of the mini one probably improves the magnetic coupling efficiency by a very large factor.
12:15 o my... I want so much have shop like this near my house. I mean in near city.
Because i life in country in Poland. In near city are electric shops (at least one where i was but i heard that is another even same brand but i wasn't there)the have even some LEDs And swiches but the have no capasitors, resistors etc.
And LEDs And swiches are expensive.
Sorry for my Eng.
Go look on Ebay...its all there. And cheap.
@@ascher40
I know that those are on internet (actually
in my country (Poland) E-bay isn't popular and we have our side) but shipping take some time and can cost more than single/couple component you need. So even if components in shop would be a little bit less cheap can be still more profitable.
if i wanna buy components that cost 3$ on internet and 5$ in the shop but shipping cost 5$ (8$ from internet) them better option is stationary shop.
Of course i can make some stock but them buying bigger numbers of many parts doesn't cost that low. So internet store's are nice but stationary shops are still practical when you need one ore couple cheap parts.
FERRITE CHOKE! i saw it too and wanted that test so bad, SO SATISFYING
You should have gone to Daiso or another hyakin (100-yen store). They have all sorts of tools, including screwdrivers, for only 100 yen each.
1 USD is equal to 108 yen, so yeah it's a dollar store
that capacitor shop was so neatly organized wow.
I dont get how you're powering an led light using AC. Maybe the capacitors are 'connecting the peaks'?
It's probably just lighting it up half the time, and the voltage is probably higher so it is twice as bright as it normally is
Where is the 99 cent store when you need one in Tokyo.... $200 they saw you coming a mile away... Nikola Tesla invented that in the 1800's🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Go to any Don Quijote if you need anything cheap in Japan. Or a Daisy, that's cheap too.
Goes to show that Arthur C Clark was right, AND, that people who want to block technology.....can.....
In the early 2000s, almost 20 years ago, I bought a wireless LED cellphone antenna. Antennas were often external and removable. My phone was a Motorola v60ti.
I had one of those too. They sold them in the mall kiosks.
The evil Strange Parts mega corporation is scary :.(
I want to make a "wireless" potentiometer with a LED actually (the wireless in the knob part). The idea is about for a year (or two) in my mind. It's a very useful thing for making cool things.
P.S. Now I've watched to the end and have some questions! How to make a transmitter (not powerful!) which will be powering a coiled LED? Is it OK just to make a coil with a resistor in series and connect it to 5-9v DC source?
No that won't work. You have to induce a changing magnetic field in the transmitter and that will induce a charge in the LED's coil. The catch is turning on the electricity in the transmitter will only induce a single change in the the magnetic field (and through induction one change in the current in the LED coil). So in theory you might see a single blip from the LED but probably not. And your wire may get really hot. So you have to keep reversing the voltage in the transmitter so the magnetic field keeps changing and that will keep the magic pixies moving back and forth in the LED coil. Google "H-Bridge".
14:56 I see you had to scotch tape the smoke detector to prevent a hotel-wide evacuation from your soldering!!
Have you used the TS-100 or TS-80 soldering iron? Perfect for the backpack
that's an expensive for a wireless charger pad for you phone
ok alright that is NOT $200 of electronics inside that thing, pretty sure if I just disassembled my old electric fly swatter I'd have 50% of the components required
Dude, I am addicted to your Videos. Thank you for putting so much work into them. Greets from Berlin, Germany.
make that a double greeting from Berlin 😀
Yeah i can attest to being able to spend 8 hours in there and not seeing everything nor being able to choose what you want....
I LOVE THAT PLACE!
Bro, what a fun channel! At first I was like, "Oh, almost 18 minutes. Let me try to watch it" in a reluctant manor then when it ended I was bummed there wasn't more! Awesome content! Thanks for sharing!!!
The sheer amount of effort you put into these vids is amazing! Mad props!
Damn I sat through the entire video. Love you love Japan. ❤️
Joyy shut up
@@johnnotwanttoshare5038 go to sleep
@@johnnotwanttoshare5038 are you okay John? Have a bad day buddy?
Howdy,
You should make friends with someone who is an amateur radio enthusiast with a good understanding of antennas. This is how every radio works.
Hey, if you’re having trouble saying the whole phrase, use the short version “azass” (あざっす)
Bro is it possible to fix that led to ring that might be awesome
How do you manage to make every single video so interesting??? Love everyone of them, keep up the great work
Finally catching up to what Nikola Tesla invented 100 years ago!
RollsRoyce that was wireless fluorescent lights which he had all over his shop
lol literally but i think this is amazing its so simple and makes so much fucking money !
Not really. Only with LED this time, which was already done 20 years ago. With fluorescent neon signs, it was done 60 years ago. and I'm pretty sure this has been going on since Tesla invented it. Oh yeah, every simple crystal detector radio set uses wireless power, so there's that.
@@mjouwbuis it was less about the light source, but the transmission of electricity through the air.
You can even make the wireless powerbase yourself......youtube has a lot of videos about this topic !
I'd bet a simple transformer with half the ferrite core and the secondary removed (to allow the magnetic field to spread into the space around the transformer, the core keeps field lines somewhat contained in it) would already work well enough for a proof of concept. Remember to always exercise extreme caution not to touch any metal parts when working with wall power and ask a professional if you are even the slightest bit unsure if what you are doing is safe.

All you has to do is just to search in RUclips
" wireless led at home"
Bro this works even with the induction cooker😂
