Hahaha, even when searching for videos of how a SCUBA regulator works, I get EE! Congrats on 1e6 subscribers!

[@anandpatel1074]

Liked for scientific notation

[@maccliff2115]

Straight to the point.👍🏼
Easy to understand!
Great video.

[@andyandroz6582]

Great explanation, you made that very easy to understand,good job,thanks.

[@JavierBriz]

I follow you for the cars, but it would be awesome to hear you talking about scuba again.

[@Gleestuff3000]

Thank you! This is the most helpful thing I've ever seen in my life.

[@cameronrobertson9518]

Wow he has come so far with his videos. I wasn't even searching for his stuff when I found this

[@anthony9thompson]

Excellent video

[@EngineeringExplained]

Where do you want to be?

[@airblizzard]

Can you explain how letting water into the regulator keeps the internal pressure constant? Why would the external pressure matter? Thanks.

[@ManoftheClouds]

Hm. A change of pace from all the car stuff. Nice.

[@SkittlefabzSRT4]

Great video for being 12 years old! NOTHING LIKE A WHITE BOARD

[@Cambo866]

I'm not sure what you mean by the external pressure won't matter. Won't the intermediate pressure be proportional to the to the external (water pressure)? Using the diaphragm as an example, as the external pressure increases, it pushes on the flexible device, opening up the device until the intermediate pressure increases enough to push the device back down.
By the way, thanks for all these great videos. I'm working my way through your video list.

[@LeBoogieman]

god bless you man.

[@JoeSmith-ig1uv]

Thank you.

[@SuperGenericUser]

I just found this video while googling about regulators and was like "This guy looks like a young version of Engineering Explained" Then I saw the channel 😂

[@kylec2476]

so old school nice video for you early career

[@assemblerclouds]

I didn't know Demetri Martin did technical seminars as well.

[@peterkortvel]

Still missing how exactly it works.

[@xinlinwu4572]

I heard that this is the least viewed video on this channel

[@adeigutierrez5300]

the spring on the diagram is on the wrong place but nice vids

[@adeigutierrez5300]

i mean is forcing the valve to open instead of closing it

[@SebaK1ng]

Adei Gutierrez It's allright, that's the point of the spring, the pressure close the piston. When you breath pressure drops at the IP chamber and the spring open the piston, when you stop breathing the tank or the HP chamber delivers pressure again to the IP chamber and that force its "stronger" than the spring and close the piston...

Sorry i subscribe d you in 2020 as i am now 17 but in 2010 i was 7 and no phone ,just a feature phone😂. And that time i had no interest in cars😂

[@JavierBriz]

[@rainofthepast]

i think i'm in the wrong place :P
