The scientific information we gathered using the thermal heat camera lead to more experiments: What happens if you heat a stretched band, one that already cooled down to room temperature?

It regains the power it lost during the cooldown phase. That is right, this video has the proof.

Now The Slingshot Channel has to use this critical information in order to build a slingshot crossbow that can heat the stretched rubber with the flick of a switch. The result looks bizarre and very uncenventional, but it does work very well.

Three heating films heat up the interior of an encapsulated band box. Using a strong 3300 mAh rechargeable battery, the bands can make the bands about 20 centigrade warmer than the environment, adding (or better, regaining) about 40% energy.

This weapon can be left cocked for a long time, and then - minutes before action is expected - be brought to top performance.

Two new slingshots are also presented as a bonus.

A "The Slingshot Channel" production!

  • you never replied to my message:(

  • @dannymetts I get hundreds of messages every day, impossible to answer all of them. That is why I run a forum.

  • joerg do some more slingshot news like you did 1 year ago :)

  • @sohy3010 Not many views on those videos, so I gave that up. Show biz it is.

  • Joerg, Can you please compare some different pouch methods, like woven, leather (Kangaroo, Cow Hide, Other) and also what ive been using 19mm Velcro (Hook and Loop Tape) Strips. I believe that the velcro is superior in many ways. Have you tried the velcro before and if so why do you not use it.

  • @XxDollarBill I like leather, it is lightweight and won't break.

  • amazing concept, I wouldve never thought that to be true

  • könnte man dem band mehr energie zuführen ? phaysikalisch gesehen ja schon

  • Smileyface measuring thing :)

  • Always nice to see a cat appearance. :) 

  • joerg u have a very good imagination and u are a skilled carpenter and contraption maker. I make slingshots too and all of them are inspired by yours. theyre not as effective, but they still work good.

  • 6:58 what bitch Face LOL

  • @spudinator2 XDDD ..... Transcribe audio hahaaaaa... 6:35 "I do have a pure bulldozers mostly talked about it for you contributors to. Compared to other wife nixon but like. The first one is probably the most everything short of that were made. Its really ugly. but its very practical because its too quick isbn changed areas. CHristian people today and see and close to quit. XDDDD......!!!!!!!

  • could you send me a diagram of the trigger mechanism plz it look so simple in your vid thanks

  • wow, thats one hell of a slingshot (with heating) :)

  • I think this is very interesting. imagine if you could create some sort of solar heat trapping generator using several rubberbands to transmit the heat to mechanical energy. so cool
