Yay! 5 million. Totally deserved.
hi
You're not too far from a million yourself
lol its you
Sad electroboom don't pump good content anymore. I think he doesn't love to do interesting vids at the moment. I stopped contributing to patreon. Bigclive this time.
No, no; no. YOU get back to making videos, I'm getting bored again over here good sir!
the floating head drawing on the whiteboard is an excellent idea, please keep doing that!
Yeah 🤣
@Pinocchio dude no
Yea he should keep doing this
Oh yea i love that bit x,D
and also that can be used for memes
5:30."then we sand it until it's as smooth as your brains"
Lmfao, didn't expect to get roasted like that
He did say, “Sorry …”!
@@dougthomson5544 Apologies
Can we just appreciate his drawing skills the way he was explaining us the construction of the magic wand on the software 😂
5:10 Why did that catch me🤣🤣
i just wanna know where is his building Tesla coil video i need it for electrician project
When you dropped that bulb, we all felt the tears of a thousand suns. Congrats on the 5,000,000 subs, and enjoying yet another RF burn!
Aren't these lamps filled with like mercury vapors?
14:48 When you knock a fragile item over.
@@ProtoV33MK1 Ok, I looked it up and supposedly it's ~4mg of mercury per a CFL lamp.
(Let's assume it's all vaporized.)
US environmental limit for concentration in air (by OSHA - work safety and stuff) is .1mg/m³
This would mean it needs to spread into 40 cubic meters (e.g. a 4m×5m×2m room) to not exceed these limits
So yeah… Most likely not dangerous. Still better to ventilate the room and try to not inhale too much when it's still concentrated, but it's not gonna harm you from happening once
You guys should try out the new Tesla coil design by Eric Dollard!!!!!! No more primary winding!!!!!
Waiting for you to recreate the wand. A nicer version though, as always :))
Huge congrats Mehdi! Well deserved! 👏😎
3D Printing for the win!
..water-cooled magic wand.. 👀
First
Ok
yes but can it run crysis core?
Not A bad idea tho, maybe consider using a thick, hollow copper tube as the primary and run water through it.
or run mineral oil through it
BTW, 3M Scotch® Self-Fusing Silicone Rubber Electrical Tape 70 has an elecrical insulation rating of 34k volts per mm of thickness.... that should be really useful in a project like that. Either between the two coils, around the screw that was too long, or between the secondaty and a solid ferro core...
he knows. He knows a HELL of a lot more than you do.
@23bobjr well, what a complete ass you are. Since you don't know me, you have no idea how much I know....
@@23bobjr what's wrong with you, dude? Your body of knowledge is inconsequential if it doesn't happen to cross your mind during a brainstorm and engineers collaborate all the time. Good ideas can come from the less knowledgeable and often do if you're not arrogant enough to think you always know better. Do you think he's never incorporated comments feedback and suggestions into his work?
You've got a weird vicarious superiority complex and you need to cut it out.
@@23bobjr And David here knows more than you. Please, don't be a jackass.
I just ordered a DIY tesla coil, and I’m so excited. I’ve been learning programming, but I took a detour into electronics when I found electrobooms videos.

I have a new favorite phrase, "Look at that fluffy plasma!". Congrats on reaching 5,000,000. You deserve it!
I love sentences that seem like they shouldn't make sense but do make sense.
14:47 "oh shit, I broke my lamp"
Break 💡
E
Ye
It is good to see a legend not stopping, but evolving even after 10 years, and still keeping the old traditions and humor, you deserve that 5mil.
Pity we don't see you improving your english
@@murderyoutubeworkersandceos Says the guy who can't even be bothered to put a period at the end of his sentence.
@@redakdal and he has the audacity to criticise OTHER people's English
@@redakdal look at that guy's profile photo you commented to.
@@redakdal oh yeah? And u trash were confused whether the comment was finnished, or not?
You sir are legendary, playing with literal electrons and creating arcs at will! So m any concepts are learnt while doing projects, I love it!
Congratz on the 5M subs my dude, you've earned it :)
Also I have to you say you're pretty rad ... I haven't heard many people manually making coils with 700 turns with thin wire :D that requires some serious skills and patience.
This green screen - headless whiteboard thingy is amazing! :D
Maybe 3D printed stuff wasn't a good idea with high volgate that generates so much heat, melting the filament :/
@Pinocchio dafuc
The right filament would solve that, provided the printer can print said filaments.
If you used PEEK or PEKK it would have a much better thermal and electrical properties, but a wallet hurting price.
Another problem with 3D printed stuff: it's green, which means you won't be able to use it in front of a green screen to put in a magical background.
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 thats just the color he used, u can get filament in almost any color.
Congratulations Mehdi on 5 million subs! You really deserve it for sharing electrical/electronics knowledge in a unique and fun way!
O seu canal Electrolab é muito bom, aprendi várias coisas sobre eletrônica e ainda não fiz porque não tive tempo mas logo vou fazer aquele seu autofalante de plasma usando flyback.

será que com 24v o arco elétrico fica mais forte ou pode acabar queimando algo no circuito?
Congrats Mehdi
Congratulations on your amazing achievement. Thank you for everything. Love and blessings from Ontario Canada!
Love the voiceover 😂😂😂 thank you Mehdi, never had fun learning something new and complicated
Congratulations!!! That moment at 2:40 is exemplary of how you think outside the box and are truly innovative! You make these topics so amazing and engaging!!!
I skipped that part and didn't notice it... until I read this
Gotta keep the tradition running.
You can use ferrite dust mixed into epoxy, gives much higher density of ferrite while also decreasing the maximum conductive length from the size of the rods to the size of the ferrite particle. I'd give it an external plain epoxy coat to cover any exposed bits of ferrite from the casting though.
I wrote my Bachelors thesis about such ferrite-epoxy composits for inductive charging, so it should also work very good here.
Even that I'm building Tesla coils for some time, I learned from this video many new and interesting things. That epoxy stick with small ferrite cores is a pretty cool idea. Your sense of humor always gets me 😃 !!FLUFFY PLASMA!!😁
Mehdi you actually make learning fun. You are also hilarious man you may be the funniest guy on earth. You make understanding electricity a lot easier and I've always wanted to learn more about electricity. Just wanted to say thanks! Keep up the good work!
V sauce is recommended if you like this gay, v sauce is basically just random nonsense and it’s quite humorous
Congrats Mehdi! Like I said before, the best professor ever!

The electricity going over the surface being so clearly captured by the camera is one of the coolest things I've seen this year
that was really beautiful
It's one of the rare instances of science in real life looking the same as it does in movies.
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 Was thinking the same :D

Dued, you are honestly amazing seriously, the level of knowledge you have on this and then being able to share it in a fun way that gets people excited and wanting to learn more is a Unique quality that most try to learn, your videos have sooo much in them it's great, your awesome bro. I love aluminum welding, so it's awesome seeing that in other things like thus and music theory ect, all of life (:
“It’s *badness* that makes it *great”*
Such true words have never been spoken...
2:47 this is genious, I loved it when he doing new stuffs.
16:40 The highs, the lows, the f--- no-es. That was an emotional roller coaster, even more so than your runaway stand-up desk. Thanks for sharing this project with us.

I wish this guy was my science teacher back in high school.
I joined the navy after highschool and became an sonar technician. I discovered a big interest in how electronics work and in conjunction with ElectroBoom's channel, I've decided I want to go to college for something with electronics. I was thinking electrical engineering but ultimately I want to be able to work on electronics doing troubleshooting. I loved the problem solving aspect as a technician.
New to your channel but loving your videos. Cracking me up every time. 👍
Congrats on 5M subs, You have had many electro shocks to get there!
@Morozko Hehehehe there was an ad so it didn't work 😂
Pro-tip that I learned recently: you can thin out the epoxy with acetone and then paint it on to the secondary coil with a brush. It'll be less messy. (learned about that from a video about making voice coils for home-made speakers)
Thanks pal
Like the acetone used for nailpolish?
@@hopeful_krystal yep! Be careful though: there is acetone-free nail polish remover. I think if you buy it at a hardware store, you'll get it for less per unit volume, though.
did you expect us to watch this for high quality epoxy use? or high quality content?
@Edward Elizabeth Hitler hmmm. I keep a box full of silica (with indicator dye) to keep my plastics dry. It had never occurred to me I should do something similar with acetone. Good tip! Thanks!
1:45 BRO SAME
brilliant, i really enjoy your projects. i once used a 3pin car head light and mis judged them as LNE. if i had some brilliant test equipment i probably wouldnt have known electronics today.
12:26 nice safety margin on that insulator! always nice to see insulators fail in a flashover and not a puncture.
:)
finally he didnt get electred
been watching this guy since i was 12, the fact he still kept making videos after all this time really shows how dedicated he is, he really has earned 5 mil subs the long way. congrats man, you earned this bro.
Since 12
Assuming u started when he started
Your 22…
He said 10 years …
So atleast yr between 12 and 22 mmm
I was bored 😂
Loved the video! Really happy for you to finally reach 5 million!
Truly brilliant. I didn’t search this evening for videos of current day mad scientists testing dangerous electronic setups but I got it and I’m delighted. I subscribed and have lots to watch, where has this channel been all my life :-)
"...as smooth as your brains..." Boom, you got us good 💜 Massive congratulations to you for 5 mil subs!
Your new sketching setup is super creative and looks great on screen. Well done!
I agree! Green screening the whiteboards is genius
Congrats for 5 M!! And wow, this looks very professional and done with a lot of love
Also the whiteboard is illusion 100
congrats on 5M! i love yours videos! i learn alot of new things from you ... Thanks!!! keep up the work!!!!

Holy moly, this green screen skills are amazing. It literally looks like he is sitting there 🤣. Your visual explanations raised at 10000 🔥
Nobody notices that his shirt changes every time for green screen
Your epoxy electric motor setup is exactly how i fix my fishing rods! 😀
I use epoxy to adhere a winding of braided fishing line over the new line guide eyes. It's like homemade fiberglass.
Congratulations! Love your vids I've watched you for yrs!
I have been watching every single video of yours from the beginning. Nice to see how far you have grown but still keep up the old humor which keeps bringing me back. Thank you Mehdi for entertaining us with all your explosions and near-death experiences. A well deserved 5 million subs tbh😇
14:50 the genuine sadness in his voice broke me
He's scared
The mercury in the lamp
Electro, you are the best... I just love how you handle the shocks like a pro. I am a noob when it comes to electronics, thus I shock a lot too, but mine is accidental, thus I do not catch mine on camera.. You on the other hand is educated enough to expect it, yet you do it for our entertainment purposes while teaching us... I just love this!!! It will not however change my luck for not getting shocked... Maybe push me a little more to try and also make it entertaining...😄😄😄
The most comprehensive real science most useful lesson I have ever met about Tesla Coil amazing principles and secrets, now right from my favourite HiTech genius wizard-teacher! Forever subscribed as addicted, of course ! Genius idea to include epoxy full filling and ferrites core then divided them to both increasing inductance and high voltage insulation!!! Many thanks!
The "oh fuck no" sounded so different than normal that I burst out laughing. Great episode!
I rewound and watched that part like 3 times. Fucking hell.
The comedic timing was perfect.

nice project, try using a hf litz wire for the primary winding to get less skin effect which in reverse will reduce the losses and heat of the bottom rod
Your tutorial-talk whilst explaining the process is great and I want that voice to narrate everything narratable
12:57/13:29 - nice imprumptu lathe! I dig it! (And the whole project, too, but I was expecting that; the lathe was a surprise bonus!) "It is beautiful" indeed!
Congratulations on 5 million! You really deserved it! And I cannot imagine how much solder fume you had to sniff to get there!
Ok
How does a channel go from double-O-kidney to ''Katherine'' and still talks about the all natural alternatives that will save the world?
Probably too much fumes.
im always satisfied by him not only succeeding in his creations..but still managing to electrocute/burn/blow something up in the process one way or another.
06:12 love your shiny ball!
I’ve been subscribed to your for a couple years now and have watched you grow from 800k to 5mil now! It’s nice to see you get the attention you deserve! Good luck my friend and I’ll keep watching keenly.
1:27 sounds like kreosan english

I love these! So awesome, I literally had my kids start watching and now all 5 love it too!
Heartiest congratulations Professor ‘Boom’ Mehdi!! I have been watching and learning so much from your videos since the dawn of Electroboom. Seeing the way your channel has evolved over these ten years has been very impressive to say the least.
Here is to the next ten years (looking forward already to what they will bring) and ten million subscribers!! A thoroughly deserved milestone!!
Damn, this actually looks like it's going to work. Just needs some engineering fine-tuning on the insulation and it's gonna be cool af
Try using 38gauge wire then use polyuritine for isolation,and for isolation primary to secondary you can use epoxy then put it in vacum
Wow I'm impressed you got this to work
14:23 the magic wand doing it's thing
2:48 was genius and hilarious.

I've always wanted to make a Tesla coil, now I know how they work (as well as what not to do😂) and a new favorite CZcamsr, I have been getting more and more into this stuff thanks tobyou
Perhaps the dielectric strength of the 3D printer plastic isn't high enough. It's definitely nowhere near that of epoxy. Maybe you could 3D print negative molds, and use those molds to make epoxy versions of the plastic forms.
I though that, but then there is epoxy between primary and secondary on top of the plastic, so I don't know it that buys me much. I suspect there was a bubble under the plastic in the epoxy I poured, otherwise why would the plastic bulge out so hard?? Not sure, have to cut the plastic and see what's under.
@@ElectroBOOM look into resin printers, altho for a wand this big I'm not sure you will get a big enough one that doesn't cost an arm and a leg

1:22 my thing just turned on;)

I have build a similar one and i tested different diameters of the secondary coils and i came to to conclusion that a bigger diameter of the secondary coil will result in higher performance. Your's is quiet thin, if you would increase it just a littler bit you would get much higher Voltages and Sparks :)! Great Video btw!
Love this guy! Congrats on 5M SUBSSS .
this was an amazing video mehdi. the background, the whiteboard replacement, your critical thinking solutions, your creativity. ITS AMAZING LOVE YOUR STUFF

Mehdi really deserves appreciation for his great efforts... Congrats for the little milestone
@4:10 - if you insulate the exterior of the rod, you could then wrap it in metal foil, connected to your top load, and have a much larger effective load?
Hi, I really love these projects, they’re incredibly informative and a little bit dangerous at the same time.
I would like to make a suggestion about the wand. The primary winding overheated you say because of arcing. I don’t believe that is the case, I think it is because of the thickness of the wire. You have a high frequency resonant circuit and a high frequency alternating magnetic field. This is inducing a lot of current (eddy currents) in that thick copper wire causing it heat up and waste a lot of power. I would suggest replacing the thick copper with much thinner enamelled wires bunched together like a rope with all the ends connected together.
