Appliance motors get destroyed by overspeed

Here’s the death of 5 electric motors, all are 240v rated, some are cheap crap, some aren’t.
Thanks for watching, feel free to join the discord for behind the scenes, general discussion, and some mild silliness :)

Beautiful!
Fire caused by high voltage is so much more sophisticated and beautiful than just using s lighter.
And the smell is more interesting too.

I really missed videos like this, everyone that used to post back in the day of MOT pops on cfls and little electric motors like these has seemed to disappear throughout the last decade

[@TheBypasser]

Still guess they are ok: there are not many cases of MOT kills, I only know of some kid messing with a large SGTC's sparkgap, and that is pretty much all.

Jeee, it sounded like mad jet aircrafts taking of, then crashing and burning. The RPM goes ballistic!

Oh, I see you have a few internal combustion engines here...

Have you been taking tuition from Andy.

He needs to learn to say "I want flames!"

You are pretty epic for a british(?) person

[@TechTed1]

let there be firefighters 😂

[@donwright3427]

Suspend your motors in a bucket of petrol then try it.,obviously outdoors ha ha ha

I wonder if you could use a tie clip microphone as I can barely hear what you are saying even with my volume at maximum. What will your mother say about the burn marks on the floor?

[@TheCORC964]

@@ianhosier4042 I probably should get a proper mic tbf. I don’t let mother in here anyway but the floor is getting replaced eventually anyway so it doesn’t really matter lol

[@mysock351C]

What are you using for audio? I can hear him without issue even on my $20 Koss clip-ons. Edit: Watched it back on my iPads built in speakers and still ok. Encoding issues or something else on YTs end when the video first posted maybe?

[@mysock351C]

@@TheCORC964 If you do get one, please, please, please stick it on the camera lol! Otherwise we won’t have any of those nice 50Hz noises in stereo to go with it if you get a lavaliere mic 🥺 Fwiw I’m not having any real issues using headphones or speakers. I suspect the low frequency hum/noise along with the reverberation from being in a relatively small room accompanying your voice may be causing issues for people trying to listen over something like a Bluetooth or phone speaker.
