  • That's 10,000 amps, not 10,000 volts.

  • @DennisOwnsMyBalls

    Resistance welding equipment can generate that much current. Current is more important than voltage- the voltage itself is very low.

  • @bluecollarboiler i know.. but he dont know that.. and i want to say do you know what* is 10,000 amps.. 100 amps would melt heater.. imagine what 10k will do ^^

  • @ego3pmaryca 10,000 amps would melt the who heater,

  • @atomicnortherner I guess they are wanting to be candidates for the Darwin Award. A condo complex where I once worked one guy that tried that on me after we did a tank swap out and I chewed his ass out royally. He went to the manager and she dragged me into the office where I chewed her out in the process as well regarding gas safety procedures. They didn't bother me again after after that over safety.

  • @douro20 u know that is 10.000 amps? it is VOLTS..not amps..

  • Those welders are fascinating.

  • @DennisOwnsMyBalls Dude this is electric resistance welding, The 10k amps are easily reached in this kind of process....

  • As well as testing for gas with an open flame... Do they check the electric ones by chucking water as it for a spark? "there was no spark so the wiring is safe" so odd to use a flame to test for gas, clearly people a safer way is to use gas leak spray (it bubbles up if a leak is present) or if you are cheap use undiluted washing up liquid

  • @douro20 I disagree. You don't need 10k amps to weld that. It would blow up.

  • @johneastmond I work for another water heater company, just wondering if you worked there.
