Anybody see this video by lasersaber?

Is this April fools or what?

I just saw the video.
I can imagine the large incandescent bulb took up some power, but a large frost-free refrigerator would take up a lot more.  The power drill-type of demonstration would take up to 1500 watts or more, depending how hard he presses the drill speed trigger or button.  Would a power drill work?  If so, and the device is duplicatable, then he's on to something.  He might have to hide from the power company thugs or MIB's.

I find it hard to try and reverse engineer the thing in the video by me just looking at it.  It looks a lot simpler than the drawing on Reply #323, this thread, page 22.  The drawing in Reply #325 is more like it.

I thought he might have powered it from a hidden power line cord under the table, but then he picked the whole thing up to light up the dark room he was in.

He said it worked like a tank circuit, so component values may be important.

It screams April Fools, and it was even posted on April 1st. And the doctor's name is just April Fools backwards(Lipra Sloof). AFP=April Fools Prank.
But it does kind of make me wonder if it really was a joke or not after seeing his latest work.
I would just think it was a few 9 volt batteries inside of the strip and a 12 volt bulb maybe?

I was an electronic technician in the past.  That bulb should be more than 12 VDC or AC.  It's got an industry standard base that goes to a 110 VAC outlet.  The light bulb doesn't look like it's fully bright, but he can actually plug in more strips and more bulbs to see what happens and then tape that demonstration for all to see.

Okay, he (lasersaber), has an updated video:

I know a way to power that and it would work really well. All you need is a satellite dish and LNA from dish network. The LNA puts out a lot of voltage when it is pointed at the satellite. More than you would be comfortable holding on to.

Combined with your JT circuit, you would never run out of free light.

It is kind of a round about way of building a solar cell since the satellite is powered by them, which converts it into microwave and downlinks it to your home.

Welcome!

What is an LNA?
