Hello Fam! Am I wrong about USB Killer? I can't imagine unregulated amounts of destructive power is used to test anything! Unless like I said, the plan is to check people's intelligence, and that would cost a bunch of money in equipment just to teach people a lesson! And why damage, when you can achieve the same thing in software, by tracking who plugged it? If you like to post your thoughts and video ideas, submit them to ElectroBOOM subreddiit: www.reddit.com/r/electroboom
ElectroBOOM hi utkarsh from india....make a part 2 video showing how to protect electronics from jerks carrying the USB KILLER......cnt run forever from them😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
The USB killer started as a student project. I can't believe it went into production. The purpose appears to be purely malicious - to damage other people's laptops and computers. Can you imagine if you were a student and some prick destroyed your laptop with all your work on it for a joke?
I think the original version was used to test how well host devices would survive having defective devices plugged into them. If your USB stick went bad, it'd be bad for it to be able to destroy your computer as well. I seem to remember seeing a list of devices which survived the USB killer completely, devices which survived but lost the port it was plugged into, and devices that failed entirely.
A asshole that I used to be “friends” with used a homemade one on my pc back in 2007 Burnt out my Processor and motherboard over $400 in damages I had worked hard to get the money to make that computer And I could not tell what happened to it Another good friend told me that he was bragging about it to someone I confronted him about it and he confessed I punched him and Broke his nose Don’t use these stupid things Have some decency
Years ago at work, a tech rep., from a plc company plugged in 220v on the 24v Ethernet connection. You could hear the engineer throughout the plant yell 'Noooo'. anyways 24 hours later, they replaced 36 plc racks and controllers. 🤬

Honestly an intense IT/HR team could set these out around the office to see which employees will plug random USB drives in to see who needs to be weeded out
Medi is right. Even when I worked in major electronic design, assembly and testing, we had a device called a HI-POT device but it was only specifically designed to work in the mains of the PSU units where there was the ever so slight chance of something like that happening.
a standard electrostatic discharge from a human hand is going to be on the order of 2kv. if you hit your computer with a 2kv relative discharge you will fry the USB port, they're not designed for that. before bringing you hand close to a computer port, always make physical contact with the case. I learned that the hard way.
Their rational is they want manufacturers to install protection circuits to prevent this but that doesn't make sense to me. This concept would work just as well on serial ports, HDMI, VGA, Thunderbolt etc. More over you can always just build a beefier circuit to overcome any manufacturer's protection circuit.
It does make sense, if you consider the sellers of these devices a kind of mafia. “That's a nice USB port you have there, it would be a shame if something would happen to it. We do happen to be selling special protection circuits…”
@Brett Bates I wouldn't call it "well built" per say. Usually that phrase describes build quality, not protection against random things. ie. certain casio watches are waterproof but looks rather disappointing otherwise. Surely you wouldn't call those "better built" than a rolex that isn't?
okay i'll spill the beans: The IT department uses these to kill a device for the purposes of getting a warranty replacement. Lets say you have a workstation that WILL NOT get right; it always has weird crashes. You've spent days with it but the manufacturer insists there's nothing wrong with it. Well ... hit it with the USB killer. You've made the product VERY dead without any outward sign of damage. Now the RMA department can send you a new device. Please don't be this guy.
9:37 I'm not sure about the damage you described for the Computer. It will travel from the I/O -> USB Controller -> Southbridge now it could take several routes either to the PCI Bus (Graphic card, Sound card etc.) or to the Norhtbridge or like you said to the SATA controlled devices like SSD's. So it will definitely kill the USB Controller and possibly the Southbridge. So I believe the Motherboard will be fried and if you are unlucky also the Graphic card. It would be interesting to test this though, since you can't really predict the path it will take.
"Some of my methods may kill more than your device..." wowww he just never runs out of punchlines. One of the funniest videos I have watched in a while.
Many devices can be quite easily killed by applying a piezo discharge (like from a cheap lighter) to exposed contacts. Also, doesn't usually leave any observable damage
This reminds me of the loose seatbelt clips meant to fake your car into thinking the belt is attached. The clips say on them, "Do not use this product." Check, lawyer approved.

Medi is right. Even when I worked in major electronic design, assembly and testing, we had a device called a HI-POT device but it was only specifically designed to work in the mains of the PSU units where there was the ever so slight chance of something like that happening.
I worked in a place where things kept going missing from my desk. Would have been interesting to just leave this lying around and see what happened.
Another good use-case

*Plugs laptop straight into the wall
Im ded 😂😂😂
So is that USB port
You're a laptop?
personzorz lmao 😂😂😂
It's like charging using a USB c port
BQNG well technically, he plugged the wall straight into the laptop
a standard electrostatic discharge from a human hand is going to be on the order of 2kv. if you hit your computer with a 2kv relative discharge you will fry the USB port, they're not designed for that. before bringing you hand close to a computer port, always make physical contact with the case. I learned that the hard way.
Their rational is they want manufacturers to install protection circuits to prevent this but that doesn't make sense to me. This concept would work just as well on serial ports, HDMI, VGA, Thunderbolt etc. More over you can always just build a beefier circuit to overcome any manufacturer's protection circuit.
It does make sense, if you consider the sellers of these devices a kind of mafia. “That's a nice USB port you have there, it would be a shame if something would happen to it. We do happen to be selling special protection circuits…”
Alexander Thomas hey can y’all speak English?
How are those comments 20+ hours old? Probably Patrons?
@@totallyrandomuser5760 even I was wondering about that
@Brett Bates I wouldn't call it "well built" per say. Usually that phrase describes build quality, not protection against random things.
ie. certain casio watches are waterproof but looks rather disappointing otherwise. Surely you wouldn't call those "better built" than a rolex that isn't?
That "hi" is now permanently stuck in my mind
Try to plug this USB killer into your head for a couple of seconds.
TheRusselsTeapot 😂😂😂
okay i'll spill the beans: The IT department uses these to kill a device for the purposes of getting a warranty replacement. Lets say you have a workstation that WILL NOT get right; it always has weird crashes. You've spent days with it but the manufacturer insists there's nothing wrong with it. Well ... hit it with the USB killer. You've made the product VERY dead without any outward sign of damage. Now the RMA department can send you a new device.
Please don't be this guy.
That's actually genius !

10:06 - "unless hit by a lighning" - could you create such a lightning and test that for us?

@@dabzataha9333 but that would be the greatest electric arc he could ever make lol
9:37 I'm not sure about the damage you described for the Computer.
It will travel from the I/O -> USB Controller -> Southbridge now it could take several routes either to the PCI Bus (Graphic card, Sound card etc.) or to the Norhtbridge or like you said to the SATA controlled devices like SSD's.
So it will definitely kill the USB Controller and possibly the Southbridge. So I believe the Motherboard will be fried and if you are unlucky also the Graphic card.
It would be interesting to test this though, since you can't really predict the path it will take.
"I mean don't use it! Just learn the circuit."
Isn't that phrase this channel in a nutshell??

Many devices can be quite easily killed by applying a piezo discharge (like from a cheap lighter) to exposed contacts. Also, doesn't usually leave any observable damage
