Twenty four nine volts attached to spark plug

[koukicrispS13]

You should try to jump start a car with all that instead I'd favorite that video lol

[archiestaffie666]

I dare you to put your tongue on it...

[AntDX316]

just buy an arc welder

[moparerrnocar]

That was the new all time biggest waist of my life. Thanks : )

[azzy314159]

What is the bloody point to this fucking "experiment"? None I think.

I DARE U TO TOUCH IT

[joesmoe71]

Marty! We've got the 1.21 Jigawatts!

[DreamPharaoh]

That must be ionizing the air like a jacob's ladder allowing a lower voltage to shoot across both leads. Thank you for the idea.

[mannys9130]

I hope you wear a face shield and body armor. A direct short circuit like that is sure to cause an explosion. If you don't believe me, you can look at another video on here. They hooked together nine volts until one popped open. They were lucky no one got hurt. The injuries that could be incurred are not worth the fun.

[mannys9130]

@robby844 They are hooked together and then passed across a load. If you pass them across a load, fine, no detonation. If you short them out(like this), you will be in a world of hurt.

[mannys9130]

@robby844 I don't understand if you are asking me a serious question or if you are just spinning your wheels here. A 24 volt system is 2 12 volt batteries hooked together in series to boost the voltage, then run through the coil to put a load on it and produce the spark. The key to your question is that the batteries are hooked together in series, not shorted, and that they are run across a load. This video is a direct short since the air is turned to plasma. Anything else?

[mannys9130]

@robby844 I think you are the one full of shit. You are so damn full of it, you can't think straight! Look, when you hook up a negative end to a positive end, it is not a short. Series adds voltage. 12-12 equals 24. The coil is the starting coil. Now I am wondering if you know what the hell YOU are talking about. And you are calling me out for not knowing! Come on back now.

[mannys9130]

@robby844 When I said 12-12 I meant "12 to 12" I meant the hyphen to be pronounced "to". Now, I believe you are talking about parallel. Series adds voltages together. Parallel keeps voltage but doubles the amperage of the battery system. 12+12 = 24 12-12=0

12 and 12 in parallel = double amps, 12+12 in series = double voltage(24).

+- +- = series

+-

+-

with the two positives hooked together vertically and the same for the negatives, is in parallel.

Then of course you need to load it

[mannys9130]

allaboutcircuits com/vol_1/chpt_5/1 h t m l

Please look at that site. It explains everything you need to know to see what I mean. I am just trying to get you to see the point. You really ought to know what I am talking about if you work in an automotive shop. How did you get your mechanic degree without knowing series and parallel circuits?! Impossible! Please refer to my above diagram in my last comment. Crossing + and - of 2 different batteries just makes a system, not a short.

[mannys9130]

@robby844 Well, for working with the systems every day you sure seem to have a deficiency in grasping a concept put forth. Your english is a little lacking, hmmm. You could be a child for all I know; just another troll. Anyhow, if you understand how they work, or at least you claim to, and I know that I understand how they work, 100%, then I will just cease to follow this dead topic any longer. If you don't need me to explain it to you, and you understand it, then I don't see a need to go on.

[robby844]

@mannys9130 grasping the concept put forth by you is pure assholeism.

[mannys9130]

@robby844 #1 Says you.

#2 well you are already an ass, so you can accept it just fine, can't you!

#3 I am right, you are wrong, plain and simple.

[robby844]

@mannys9130 and lemme say this.you are the full blown retard that said these batteries ^ would blow up and kill this poor guy.i dont know how many times i have hooked 9 volts up like this and havent had anything happen.this vid proves your dumb ass WRONG

[mannys9130]

@robby844 This is my last reply to you, so let me be brief and concise. This IS dangerous. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. You are wrong about that. You are also wrong about the batteries. I am 100% sure that I know more about electronic theory than you can ever hope to know. You must be pretty dumb to hook up 9v batteries and short them out like this. You can, and eventually will, kill yourself. And after you are dead, you get a nice shiny award lovingly referred to as a Darwin Award.

[robby844]

@mannys9130 really so out of over 157 videos that are on youtube of what this guy is doing and you say it will blow up and kill us all.pleeeeeeeeeeeease get a life.

[smokedontcry]

that kind of spark does happen in your block, the camera lense shows a massive flare due to the intensity of the spark , its only a 1mm arc a couple microns wide

[dblay3]

what would happen if you were able to get that kind of spark to the pistons?

[ktm125sx10]

melted piston ?

[ktm125sx10]

too early ignition / combustion, poor cooling +++

[munteanuioan]

check spark plug melting point.they all have one,the platinum 2 and 4 from NGK are @ 4000 degrees wich is blazing hot but the onld ones were like 2500 degree .the same with pistons

[Kellyrt]

with detonation. (pressure spike when 2 flame fronts meet from the spontaneous combustion of the end-gas)this pressure spike is very severe and of very short duration, it can actually shock the boundary layer of gas that surrounds the piston. Combustion temperatures exceed 1800 degrees. If you subjected an aluminum piston to that temperature, it would just melt. you are stupid

[coolguy23448]

@5crf150rider5 lmao its very possible...

[Kellyrt]

You get a beter spark 24 x 9 volt batteries = 216 volts. you get around 50,000 volts from an e-coil.(used on most cars)

[Flea5000000000]

lick it lick it lick it hahahahaha

[Ampz316]

is it true that electrical arcs are too bright look look at directly with the naked eye?

[bocephus1986]

yes, its like looking at a welder. the UV rays will hurt your eyes as well

[MonteLSV6]

lick it

[knutkleven]

0.21kv  xD it hurst

[Bandicoot803]

World's smallest portable arc lamp! Nice job, guys!

[HippyBunny]

our stage crew did this but with an 8 foot strip of 9 volt batteries. it was crazy!

[paulbreor]

dont wanna stick your tongue to this bad boy

[cheatman41]

imposible the amount needed wold be like 5 or 6 thousond volts add it by nines and see how many it is so

[ossumguywill]

no, with a 1k/1 induction coil a AAA battery could spark these. Believe me, ive done it.

[citizennate]

There are no special electronics. The batteries supply enough current to maintain an arc. Obviously they can't ignite the arc on their own. I used a third wire to scrape the leads, making a small spark and igniting the arc.

[sypha0x]

@citizennate The current increases as you only have to account internal resistance which causes the heat inside the batteries.

[bondefrands]

madness hehe nice you only need 900 more to make a teslacoil with them

[skierplaterandy]

i connected many batteries in series and made an aluminum plazma cutter

[citizennate]

Are you able to cut anything more than aluminum foil?

[skierplaterandy]

well i can burn graphite pencil leads, it wont cut anything more then 2 layers of tin foil well tho. i just found and old 2 amp 7 volt ps1 adapter that im hoping to add so i can cut more. but with the 35 volts i had it was to bright to look at so i emagine if i add 7 more volts i cant even look thru sun glasses with it. its like an arc welder its that bright. i dont want to get flash eyes off it so im not going to carry it much farther. i only really tried foil tho, it cuts it like nothing tho!

[stevensj13]

@skierplaterandy how did you do that?

[skierplaterandy]

@stevensj13 just attaching many many battieries together gives you a voltage high enough to make a spark gap, i think i had at that time 60 volts or so with batteries and wall adapters, and then its just grounding a thin piece of metal and using a wire to cut into it. pretty fun.

[stevensj13]

@skierplaterandy I feel compelled to try it, but I have no idea where to start... Do you have any pictures or a video by any chance? Maybe a drawn up diagram?

[JONSEREDdotWS]

what you made was a little arc light. you remember seeing the big search lights at events. will this is just a very small one. Install a flash light reflector behind it and really own then night

[freddo27]

216 volts DC, that'll sting a bit if you ever get yourself across it. Nice experiment.

[m3sca1]

hey thats cool-what do plan to do with that?

and how many volts have you configured the battery packs for?

[pitbullman73]

u should have touched it! lol just kiddin that would have been stupid

[dreamyear]

man! great work!

Did you removed the resistor inside the plug?

[citizennate]

I actually wasn't aware that there was a resistor in it.

[m3sca1]

for info on this see

mdbreedi

[itzbossman]

@citizennate not all spark plugs have resistors in them
