Disproven: How to Power a TV using a AAA battery

Some of Household Hacker's videos are tutorials on how to make things that DON'T WORK. I am making videos that point out the main flaws in his movies in an attempt to foil his plan to fool you.

you could've just said "household hacker is a fake and if you think it's real you're an idiot"

save everyone a lot of time :)

I guess so... It didn't exactly turn out as good as i wanted it to anyways.

[mrdengakuman99]

first off

did u even try this

instead of reciting all this scientifical crap actually test it

i tried this t my friends house and it worked

but only for a minute

then the tv went out

[XHack25]

The only way that it might work is if your TV was battery operated. Even then, DC current doesn't work with transformers because they require AC current. Try this, post a video showing me that id does work, and I'll point out how you faked it.

I've got a simpler explanation...wall outlets carry 120 volts an AAA battery carries 1.5 volts. No way on earth would a 1.5v battery power the tv when it was designed for 120v. 80 batteries would though...but that would just be a waste of time imo. Anyways great explanation in your vid.

[XHack25]

Thanks! I guess that would've been an easier explanation... Plus DC current doesn't usually work with AC devices.

OK, BUT THAT DOESN'T EXPLAIN HOW I CAN POWER A TV WITH BATTERIES! I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW! PEACE

did you make that song in mixcraft?

[dago201]

. . . a little bit of true evidence would suffice... not just words.. i would like to actually see some footage of you trying the same technique on your television to show that it doesnt work... i would try it, but i dont think i have the type of cord he was specifying. you can pm me for my email address to email the footage of you trying it.

@beastdude98 thank you someone who read their description. People are fucking stupid. READ!!

This is true , you can't power a tv off a AAA battery for a few reasons. 1: the tv needs a minimum of 200 amps to power the high voltage flyback transformer 2: tv need AC power input unless yours has a special oscillator because transformers within the tv and all other objects with transformers weather it a step up or stem down , they only work off AC current

[beastdude98]

if u look at the video description it says tht is a parody dumbass!

delete this vid....just trying to get views...

Any standard TV needs at least 200A to oscillate any kind of signal being interpreted (coaxial,radio,RCA, etc) A typical letter-type battery (A, AA, AAA, B, C, D, E, F, etc) are only rated 1A per 1 V (1W) at best and are certified at that. Even if the battery doesn't explode from the massive instant draw the TV would try to take in (probably won't, thanks to modern-day use of capacitors) the battery would die within 0.00075 seconds. You didn't need all that math hoopla to figure that out.

@RandomYTProductions pretty much, but not trhu the wall adapter. Use the usb cable instead

[kyme32]

and yeah...that AAA will be empty in few secs, and you won't get any power after transformers

[kyme32]

@hezmeister and about my knowledge you can't make this shit work out without mod that tv, anyway, that's my own opinion, maybe i gonna see someone soon on g regords making an engine 220v working with an battery...or who knows maybe feeding and whole city with few AAA=)))

and anyway, an screen have ~400v in 2x2cm

so let me see the magic how will work out that damn tv with an 1.5v without modd it, even inverter who make such an power will won't work with it:)))
