  • omfg now thats definitely badass. Be very very careful with MO magnetron, microwaves can easily heat damage eyes. Plus there's this whole berillium thing.

  • @dizekat there is no use of the magnetron in this experiment-only the transformer is used.

    thanx for commenting

  • @m3sca1 ahh, with all this talk about magnetron's berillium i thought you were doing microwave heating of flame which would've been even more scary heh.

    I kind of wonder, how much useful it is to have HHO in, as opposed to, for example, steam in? How much power do you get from HHO and how much you get from arc? Water does decompose at 2500..3000 celsius, by the way, if i recall correctly (which is the limiting factor for HHO torch temperature).

  • @dizekat interesting idea-the process demo'd in this vid is showing that the HHO flame is a conductive path for the voltage.

    running steam into a spark gap yields a similar result,so perhaps a kick ass welder could be made by pumping steam into a DC arc.....

  • lol, that is fantastic! You have interesting ideas. Does passing an electrical current, make the plasma hotter?

  • much hotter-this is something that was done by Brown in his "browns gas"machines-sorry i missed this comment when posted...

  • I'd just like to mention here, it is VERY important for ANYONE experimenting with magnetron's to be VERY CAREFUL of the ceramic looking parts of the centre section. These parts are NOT ceramic, they are in fact made of a material called Beryllium which can cause serious injury to you. If these pieces were crushed to dust and inhaled (even in the smallest of quantities), the result would be instantaneous lung seizure and obviously be FATAL!!!! GREAT CAUTION IS ADVISED!!!

  • thats what she said

  • its simply a heads up to anyone pulling apart microwave ovens.

  • Berilium is a metal guys. Learn some chem. Berilium oxide is a ceramic. And of all ciramics, why choose a toxic one? Well that's just stupid.

  • handi cap restroom railings work great .

    some microwaves have a ss shell the silver one's the ionic breeze has a good set up in it that is easaly converted for hho
