please watch in high definition, with the volume low


i rectify 120v ac straight off the inverter, then i put that 120dc to a spacrk cell that regulates the amperage by removing the plastic from the anode, "which is made of 18gauge copper wire" the spark cell to a microwave oven transformer. the microwave oven transformer is hooked up to the spark cell but you put a capacitor in series on one of the leads.
The seconary is connected to penny leads, as i use the pencil to place water between the leads it creates a flame. some say the graphite from the lead
creates a path for the electricity to flow, which is probly true but the same result can be found with using a plastic utinsil to apply the water.

i feel that this is the high voltage breaking down the water into hho and the igniting it. you be the judge
please comment.

  • You seem to be confusing burning with shorting out a circuit. When the reaction is smaller it is more evident that it is just a simple short circuit.

  • @itsdonenow thanks

  • lol look at tht redneck rig thts hillarious

  • @silentcheese24 what makes it redneck?

  • @silentcheese24 what kind of redneck is smart enough to use electricity?

  • @kenizzyny ahh, what a "sweet" guy.

  • "instead of using a spark plug, im gona use these peeeenies"

    tehehehehe that made me giggle

  • the question is.. how quickly can you heat water and how many watts do you use.

    if you are getting any positive heat values from the arc then it should heat up the water faster than without water .

  • Please please use and insulator, a pencil is a very bad idea. An MOT coupled with it's resonant cap can provide 4kV @ upto 500mA. If you catch one from this you are at best going to be burned deeply but most likely killed.

    Have fun but play safe.

  • that looks safe.

  • You can't be too complacent when it comes to electricity. That pencil's 'lead' Is a conductor and the wood will easily conduct electricity at those voltages. I would use a plastic object like pvc pipe with a metallic object on the end instead, to keep you out of the circuit.

  • good now ur next step is to put this in a car ; )

  • just a miniature scale of what coastal/marine lightning does when it strikes water, although i would be rather careful of using newer pennies, as they are copper plated zinc, and zinc in its purest white powder form is highly explosive/reactive.

  • The big Oil corporations are trying their best to stop free energy ideas from spreading to common ppl.

    We need to put an end to this corruption ,start generating ur own electricity now.
