I like your channel Entry 🤪👍
Hey Big Fan and a equivalent electronic enthusiast. I have Modified the Multiwii code for Airplane to work with NRF24l01 . We would like you to make and show us your plane fly .
Today I finally understood how mercury vapour tube works
I bet most of the people don't know this.
There are many videos on how it works but I understood with this.
It's the best explanation of CFL lamps on CZcams. Keep it up!
Totally agree with you. I'll share to my students because it is so clearly explained.
Great video , Thanks for doing video that I asked comments.
This is the proof that you read all the comments dont worry abt some people saying that you don't read comments.
If you would have been my university teacher I would have topped all the time 😂
Yeah same
Same 🔥
Yeah bro. He is a brilliant teacher
Can you tell us which software you use to visualize the animation? Thank, you are the best CZcamsr ever!
@@ALex-ts1gu
I think blinder
Just want to say the way you explained the compact circuit was amazing. Again to reiterate... amazing. The visual graph of the signal changing as you explain the circuit was SO CLEAR and HELPFUL... Thank you!
0:27 Excellent!!! Magic smoke full of mercury vapor. Very smart.
And..... LED came to the party.
One of the greatest youtube videos, thanks a lot. very informative.
Now I'm going to search on how to make a plasma ball out of this bulb :)
And LED's are still trash.
@@crazywarp36 LED are not trash IMO, but companies running it with overvoltage and without heat spread which reduces their life from years to a couple of months. that's how they make money, they won't profit from a lightbulb that runs for 10 years.
Just a minor correction. 5:14 The choke is usually wound on a core made of iron slices. Do not break flurescent tubes as they can contain toxic mercury. Just a note of warning. Good video.
Sadly they are not popular nowadays, but I loved your clip
Been following you for about four years now and am amazed by how much you still maintain the enthusiasm while explaining. Also the animations have obviously gotten significantly better.
Thank you so much
Most underrated electronics channel I have came across. Well done guys!
You are the best when it comes to explaining electronics circuit and devices. I don't have words to thank you. Would love to see more such videos. You made me understand the working of the CFL like a breeze. Thanks you so much
I didn't know that CFL was so complicated. But you made it seem like a piece of cake. Great job. What do you use to animate your videos?
Thanks. I use after effects
I’ve been waiting for such video for a month now thanks man keep this up
Your exexplanation is great and clear. I easily understood the theory. Very good animation
This is absolutely the best explanation about ccfl lamp systems I found on youtube!
8:30
FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER
Oh, wrong channel 😂
huge respect for you.. ❤️ so much hard work yet very underrated electronics channel..
Crystal clear explanation, great job
excellent description, I was amazed to see that momentary contact and then release
I was not watching your videos recently, just started from this video, no complaints, and as always, AWESOME CONTENT!! 👍👍😊
Thank you so much for making this video. I used to teardown CFL bulb to understand how it works but I can't eventually but now I understand.
It's very amazing! Well detailed. Well explained. It's just amazing🙂
You are not ElectroNOOBs , you are ElectroPRO Bro..
Very well made video :-) These types are getting harder to find lately due to LED taking over. Just bought about 9 of these the other day for $1.00 a piece at a local liquidation store.
Neat! I always wondered how florescent fixtures from 20 + years ago have changed, now I know! For instance I have an old florescent drafting desk lamp that has a 'start' button and an 'off' button, so the 'start' button probably takes the place of the arc.
Mind blowing....🥰
Very useful
You're simply great. Here in Africa we enjoy your videos pretty well. If not for you, we would be in darkness with regards to technology. We are proud of you. With love from here.
Such informative and learning videos are welcomed.
Wow! Very good research and demonstration. This is good for educational purpose, recommended. Keep it going on this awesome video like this. Thank you!
This was a very interesting video Andrei. I find it fascinating to see the back EMF from that inductor coil's magnetic field collapsing actually being harnessed for a purpose. Thank you for creating this great video.
Well done. Very informative.Thank you.
Very well explained !
Excellent video
Good explanation thank you very much 👍😊
I feel like I learned more from watching YT vids than from my college professors
Awesome video man... Keep your good work... Luv from India
Thanks, that was very interesting. 👍👍
I really need a teacher like u ❤️🔥
Animation gave me detailed idea. Thanks.....
Great video thx for the informations that you always give
Great explanation.
Another awesome explanation !
Thank you for your vidéo. Bonjour de Toulouse France.
Apka vivaran bahut accha hai (from INDIA, HINDI)
Awesome content...👍👍
Really Cool Video ❤️❤️❤️
Thnx a lot. Your explain is the best 👌👍👍👍⚘⚘
Excellent explantion ⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Que buena exposición!!!!
Very good video keep it up
Beautiful explanation as always , the pace of this video was a little fast , I had to pause it a few times and catch up , great work !
great video
Superb explanation
Good video 👍
Awesome bro 👍
Good job
You explained it better than my book.
Please cover HPMV lamp, mercury iodide lamp other old school lamps.
thank you very much
Good explanation Sir 😊👍
nice tutorial
Very interesting video!
But, You forgot to explain the function of the DB3 diac. It is always in all of them.
Greetings.
the channel is great!
This video is awesome
You are professor
Nice video
I love florescent lamp starters and plasma globes
You've always been a source of inspiration to me. I love the simple explanation. What software do you always use for your physics illustrations and circuit design that looks like fritzing
Man, you can lecture most of my professors on college, wish you the utmost success. Would you consider making a serial on CPU design, and possibly creating a fully functional CPU? Many videos online dont go in dept, or are waay to long.
Thanks. I think that would be a complicate topic. I'll have that on my to do list and get more info about it.
www.nand2tetris.org/
I recommend this course if you want to learn about how processors work, from the nand gates level up to the software level.
Wah bro impressed
nice, thank you
Foarte fain
Very nice video of professionnal grade ;)
Great nice exelent sir
Thanks u man
Thanks.
U are the best 😘😘
Nice bro
Great 👍
Do a separate video on LC tank switching.
& Compare it with as IC switching (normally use in almost every smps)
Great
whats make the bimetallic contact open the circuit itself ?
How do make the animations? Can you do a tutorial on that?
Great Video, I'm just beginning my journey into electronics and learnt quite a lot. You explained it really well. In the modern CFLs, what do you think are the main failure modes? I'm considering if it's worth salvaging the coil and some caps off the boards of nonfunctional CFLs before I throw them out.
I reckon it's definitely worth saving the high voltage caps. They usually have reasonable length wires on them. Also in many I have scrapped that have failed the transistors often still work.
I want to drive a 8W UV lamp can i do it with this cfl balast?
You r great sir !! Thank u very much. Dear sir , I want to know about wireless microphone. Please make a video on wireless microphone receiver & transmitter.
What will be the voltage and current value at output?
this is a good quality content , i enjoyed it :D .
one quesiton, do you do the electronic symbols yourself or there is a program that generate them
I do them myself or sometimes get the icons from google images
I have 2 tubes from 2 CFLs.
Can you post a video of how to repair a cfl bulb?
Hello! Could you make a video on how to make a power supply transformerless for the esp’s projects? I usually use power supplies with transformer but they take a lot of space on the PCB, cheers from portugal
need to run a uv tube from 12v to sterilize water when camping etc, either one of those 6w/8w tubes for ponds or those 3w gtl3 style ones. ( I think 24v+resistor can strike those but they prefer ac)
what is the function of DB3?
Love your videos 🤩. Can you make a video on GM328A Transistor Tester Diode Capacitance ESR Voltage Frequency Meter PWM Square Wave Signal Generator.
I never thought about how CLF's work! By the way, I am working on your brushed drone project but I have a problem. I don't want to buy the Radio transmitter due to budget issues as most controllers in my country cost around $60 to $80USD is there a way to control the drone with an nRF24 with my pc or phone? If not it's ok I can work with the Bluetooth modules but I want to use the nRF due to range problems. I have considered using the ESP8266 but I could not find a suitable code anywhere. Please, is there a way to use the drone from my pc or phone? or will I have to use the Bluetooth module instead(I do have the code for the Bluetooth module). Anyways thanks! I have learned a lot from you and will continue to do so.
Is it possible to apply a lower voltage just enough to create a plasma but not heat it enough to bend the bi-metal? I would like to have a starter permanently lit with the argon glow.
@7:10....how is the circuit closed near the starter? There must be some alternate path in the starter to complete the circuit?
Amazing video. It's obvious you always take your time to make these videos. What software do you use for your animations?
Thanks. I use after effects!
I have a question pls answer it .
I want 2 sensors in which I kept 1 at place a and 2nd at place b.
So it tell the distance bw them.
And also if I move one of them up down or rigth and left then also it works.
Means which are aligned to each other.
I feel intros are getting better
I get that "on paper" CFL bulbs last longer than tungsten bulbs but in my experience they burn out in like 1/2 the time...
bad manufacturer maybe... ?
Just terrible technology. Too many electronic components same with cheap LED bulbs. Down to bad quality ballasts.
I think its forced obsolescence, where manufacturers force their products to fail prematurely in order to switch to LED bulbs? Just a guess, but this has been hapenning with some products
@@narayanbandodker5482 this was long before LED lighting technology was even available. CFLs have always been terrible quality, I don't know anyone who still has CFLs (even frugal people). There was a low-mercury mandate in fluorescent tubes: these fail prematurely. CFLs are now more expensive than LED bulbs.
Frequent power on and off can shorten
CFL lifespan. Also Good ventilation of the lamp is needed. From my personal experience, CFLs do last longer than incandescent lamps.
