This laser use 940nm 2 w pump diode. Efficiency is around 1%

the pc stopped responding because the hdd was not spinning anymore, so the data could not be read

I was waiting for the word "Capacitance" to rear its head. And your body mass makes a nice capacitive plate, much more so than a coin.

Try touching it with one hand, with the other hand stretched out as far away as possible, then bring the outstrecthed hand in towards yourself. I guess your legs will still mess things up, but you could always do it on the floor and tuck yourself into a ball as much as possible. I'm pretty sure you'll be able to have some control over how strongly the filaments are attracted to you, as you reach your hand out farther from the ball and increase the voltage drop across yourself.

and you can make a 1-2 cm spark between the wire and the negative side of the hv transformer, 4x bigger than with metal on the glass

I like to place a aluminium cup from a waxine light candle upside down on the globe, making sparks to my finger, burns holes in my finger and feels like electic shock. let friends do it also timing who dares it longer great joy.😅

I did this with tinfoil instead of coins as a kid and zapped myself quite a few times

Capacitance and a relatively large mass. the plasma balls run at a fairly high frequency in the low MHz, there is enough capacitance between the ball and you to make a good sized AC current to flow

Do it on a hot air balloon

Keysight has a few decent oscilloscope's, electroboom use's them on his channel

when i was child about 25 years ago, i covered my plasma ball with aluminium foil. It gave nice burns. Dont do it ;)

10 was the first 'more yellow than green' 12 was proper yellow

Air gets ionized, conducts better. Same reason why you can stretch the spark on coin. Imho

You could stand on styrofoam to do tests with your body ungrounded. Jumping in the air could break your equipment or result in electric shock if you try jumping tests with other electrical equipment.

The foil does all the work, it is just a safety to use a transformer. Each direction looks like an easier pathway, but as soon the thin foil gets very hot, then it must take new paths, but each path gets too hot, so you actually see the lightening die, then it starts again. But the argon undergoes elementary fision, they showed it with neon, your smarter than me, i dont own one.

I think the increased attraction is from the presence of the other ball. Notice the change in the behavior of each ball after your touch.

Put one finger on the ball and one finger on earth you see it travels through the glass alright

When I was 13 I found that if I put aluminum foil over the ball it would shock me with enough power to make a small arc like you showed.

What did you do with the camera that it started showing yellow instead of green?

If you think those sparks hurt. Try using your thumb nail. The spark will run alone your thumb nail but not be conducted to it.

Ok question what happens if you hug a plasma ball not literally hug it but get most of your body mass right next to that electric field does it not want to flow to you in that instance 🤔

more attractive than a brick. good to know...

Accuracy of movement Strength magnet

PSA: DONT USE THESE NEAR A COMPUTER OR PHONE, THEY ARE VERY GOOD ANTENNAS

If you keep using this music I'm going to keep switching from you straight to La beast

I picked 12

White Danes can jump

I didn't kno Electroboom had a son

As a kid I had fun burning things by putting aluminium foil on top of the ball.

I accidentally discovered it as a kid and started burning leaves with it, probably not the brightest idea but hey I'm still here

Immensely satisfying, though I have to say that amber laser is absolutely gorgeous.

The radiator has paint on it. Not a good ground.

Quite amazing, specially when you jumped 😉

11 was the most yellow

I was between 12 and 13, but like many others I ultimately chose 13.

I say oooooooh Monster magnet space lord mutha mutha🎶🎶

Hey guys - what difference does divergence make to the width of the laser after it is expanded through a simple lens or mirror? If the divergence is 2 mRad for one laser and 4 mRad for another, will their spot size after expansion differ?

glass is friendly with wireless electricity

darn , someone bothered testing with isolated wire . Congrat . Now you know what false signal is

I hope*

What happens if you put your finger through it?

With the cracks in the base of the ferropaint, I'm thinking it'd be interesting to put some multicolor LEDS under it in a box/stand and then a glass cover.

ah yes, i remember leaving pennies on these at every hotel that had them, gave nice shock to who ever went to pick it up.

I felt the 20 Hz in my bones while wearing cheap earbuds 🥶

Would wearing thick rubber boots have a similar effect to jumping? With that in mind, if connected to something ungrounded for a long enough time, would it eventually stabilize, or would it serve as an "energy dump" indefinitely? The fact that, when you jumped, a few stray strands of filament wandered off makes me wonder.

More power - modern car ignition coils or the high voltage cascades for CRTs.

9:37 you were never grounded to the radiator. you put your wire over painted metal

bro has moon boots 💀

It must really smell like ozone in there

Coming from the bottle it immediately spikes
