    I'm really enjoying these segments as someone who was always fascinated by how electronics of old functioned. Glad you started these.

    You guys could present a video on drying paint and it would be awesome. Keep it up!

    I was a telecom tech for decades. The IT guys used to look down on me until I pointed out that most of the things they used were invented by telecom pioneers.

    To be fair, it's not ekectronics but electromechanics. But I love the series!

    So THAT'S why they're called relays! I could have learned this from a boring video and it would have been interesting enough but you keep finding ways to make the interesting entertaining!

    I was going to make a relay race joke, but now I won't.
    But, this video just proves that electronic components run on smoke, and those valves open and close to let the smoke move around.

    Thanks for this series of videos Mitch and Sam, they might be short but they are informative and entertaining - something I aim to be myself 🤡

      @@hackmodular thanks Johnny, the editing is super snappy and makes these episodes really pop!

    Thanks for a great video on what relays are and how they work. I don't know if it's outside of the scope of this channel, but I would love to see a simple logic circuit made out of relays.

    Thanks Mitch! As an electrical engineer I already knew this (not being patronising) but very well explained for the rest of the viewers! 🙂😎🤓❤

    Aboard the Nuclear Ship Savannah, the “Lamp Test” button on the reactor control-panel operates a mess of relays in unison: ruclips.net/video/vRq5KiPG0LA/видео.html . It looks like this from the front: ruclips.net/video/UMOFP8V8dLU/видео.html .

    I'm a big fan of relays... but I didn't know, before, why they were called "relays".

  • @joonglegamer9898
    @joonglegamer9898 5 месяцев назад

    He's not wrong, relays are the best. I have a collection of between 500-1000 relays (brand new ones) because I picked it up from an old electronics store that went bust back in the early 2000s . Why? Because they're cool, easy to build with, you can use it as remote switches everywhere with no logic or anything complex. They're just super!

    lol, a tiny correction many important "math" inventions where made between 1600 (the invention of the telescope) until de death of Einstein.
    These "relais" in the video are like BMW, Mercedes Benz, Porsche a like engineered.

    Im snowed under with Relays, Relays, Relays.. I too love love to watchen das blinkenlights, Achtung ! das machine is nicht fer ger werken by das dumnkopfen. nicht finkerpoken, mit spitzen-sparken, und blownfusen, und shnappen de springwerk.
    Yeah relays. As i trip over Loads of Strowger stuff in my hallway, kitchen and living room. I too will soon shnappen de springwerk en mein kopf.. Unk taken das relaysetzen de partsen und bitszen, yes, with lots of spare relays und springsetzen for everybody...

    I disagree with what you said about relays and solenoids
    A relay is a fixed core that pulls an armature that operates contacts
    A solenoid has a moving core that funcions in the same way as a piston, normally used in mechanical sysems like locks etc
    Though they can also operate contacts as in a starter solenoid
    You can cascade relays so that one relay operates the next, the last relay in the chain releases them all, add capacitors across the coil to slow them down, or use delay relays (i had to build a timing circuit at telecom school)
    Had a run in with a university graduate in telecoms that couldn't work out why a relay wouldn't operate, even though he tested resitance and voltage, i had to show him it was metal swarf behind the armature

      Heya cheers for the comment Sparky enjoy hearing your stories! I think yours is a fair usage of “solenoid” to define the common modern component, but the original scientific definition from 1823 I believe doesn’t necessitate a solenoid to have a core at all. At least not a solid one. Happy to be corrected though!
