I finally jumped on the bandwagon and got a pair of solar panels so now that
got a pair of solar panels so now that
got a pair of solar panels so now that we’ve got access to free and virtually
we’ve got access to free and virtually
we’ve got access to free and virtually unlimited amounts of electricity let’s
unlimited amounts of electricity let’s
unlimited amounts of electricity let’s hook them up and experiment with some of
hook them up and experiment with some of
hook them up and experiment with some of the things they can do to start this
the things they can do to start this
the things they can do to start this project I got a couple of 100 watt solar
project I got a couple of 100 watt solar
project I got a couple of 100 watt solar panels from ver Anglo solar calm here’s
panels from ver Anglo solar calm here’s
panels from ver Anglo solar calm here’s a close-up of the panel so you can see
a close-up of the panel so you can see
a close-up of the panel so you can see just how intricate the silicon wafers
just how intricate the silicon wafers
just how intricate the silicon wafers and contact grids really are this panel
and contact grids really are this panel
and contact grids really are this panel converts sunlight into about a hundred
converts sunlight into about a hundred
converts sunlight into about a hundred watts of electricity which is about two
watts of electricity which is about two
watts of electricity which is about two and a half times more power than I get
and a half times more power than I get
and a half times more power than I get from the hand-crank charger I made in a
from the hand-crank charger I made in a
from the hand-crank charger I made in a previous project not only do the panel’s
previous project not only do the panel’s
previous project not only do the panel’s make far more electricity they’re a lot
make far more electricity they’re a lot
make far more electricity they’re a lot less work to operate now I spliced the
less work to operate now I spliced the
less work to operate now I spliced the cables and added red and black alligator
cables and added red and black alligator
cables and added red and black alligator clips for convenience then tried hooking
clips for convenience then tried hooking
clips for convenience then tried hooking it up to my hydrogen generator you might
it up to my hydrogen generator you might
it up to my hydrogen generator you might remember this awesome piece of equipment
remember this awesome piece of equipment
remember this awesome piece of equipment from another project video which can
from another project video which can
from another project video which can turn ordinary tap water into a powerful
turn ordinary tap water into a powerful
turn ordinary tap water into a powerful oxy-hydrogen gas when this fuel is
oxy-hydrogen gas when this fuel is
oxy-hydrogen gas when this fuel is burned it turns right back into water so
burned it turns right back into water so
burned it turns right back into water so this could be used as an environmentally
this could be used as an environmentally
this could be used as an environmentally friendly fuel but I mainly just use it
friendly fuel but I mainly just use it
friendly fuel but I mainly just use it for shooting bottle rockets now this
for shooting bottle rockets now this
for shooting bottle rockets now this solar-powered gas production is a little
solar-powered gas production is a little
solar-powered gas production is a little bit slower than if we hooked it straight
bit slower than if we hooked it straight
bit slower than if we hooked it straight to a car battery but in a way that’s
to a car battery but in a way that’s
to a car battery but in a way that’s kind of good because with lower amperage
kind of good because with lower amperage
kind of good because with lower amperage the generator can seemingly run forever
the generator can seemingly run forever
the generator can seemingly run forever without overheating and because we’re
without overheating and because we’re
without overheating and because we’re using solar panels to generate the gas
using solar panels to generate the gas
using solar panels to generate the gas the system is completely off the grid
the system is completely off the grid
the system is completely off the grid electricity is free and virtually
electricity is free and virtually
electricity is free and virtually unlimited as long as the Sun keep
unlimited as long as the Sun keep

production up significantly now to
production up significantly now to capture the gas all we need to do is
capture the gas all we need to do is
capture the gas all we need to do is unscrew the cap of a full water bottle
unscrew the cap of a full water bottle
unscrew the cap of a full water bottle and dip it upside down in another bowl
and dip it upside down in another bowl
and dip it upside down in another bowl of water the bottle stays full as long
of water the bottle stays full as long
of water the bottle stays full as long as it doesn’t get pulled out and if we
as it doesn’t get pulled out and if we
as it doesn’t get pulled out and if we bubble the gas up from the bottom it’ll
bubble the gas up from the bottom it’ll
bubble the gas up from the bottom it’ll eventually force all the water out and
eventually force all the water out and
eventually force all the water out and leave the bottle completely full of
leave the bottle completely full of
leave the bottle completely full of hydrogen and oxygen gas now to test the
hydrogen and oxygen gas now to test the
hydrogen and oxygen gas now to test the power of hydroxy gas let’s touch a flame
power of hydroxy gas let’s touch a flame
power of hydroxy gas let’s touch a flame to the mouth of the bottle and see what
to the mouth of the bottle and see what
to the mouth of the bottle and see what happens incredible power
happens incredible power
happens incredible power alright let’s disconnect the hydrogen
alright let’s disconnect the hydrogen
alright let’s disconnect the hydrogen generator and see what we can try next I
generator and see what we can try next I
generator and see what we can try next I stopped by a local hardware store and
stopped by a local hardware store and
stopped by a local hardware store and picked up this 500 watt power inverter
picked up this 500 watt power inverter
picked up this 500 watt power inverter for only $33 so why don’t we try hooking
for only $33 so why don’t we try hooking
for only $33 so why don’t we try hooking it directly to one of the panels you can
it directly to one of the panels you can
it directly to one of the panels you can see the inverter has a USB port built
see the inverter has a USB port built
see the inverter has a USB port built right into it which means we’ve got the
right into it which means we’ve got the
right into it which means we’ve got the ability to charge any USB powered device
ability to charge any USB powered device
ability to charge any USB powered device our smartphones one panel is enough to
our smartphones one panel is enough to
our smartphones one panel is enough to charge a car battery as well so if
charge a car battery as well so if
charge a car battery as well so if there’s ever an emergency all we need to
there’s ever an emergency all we need to
there’s ever an emergency all we need to do is hook the inverter to the battery
do is hook the inverter to the battery
do is hook the inverter to the battery and now we can do all kinds of neat
and now we can do all kinds of neat
and now we can do all kinds of neat things like power a small radio to
things like power a small radio to
things like power a small radio to listen for emergency broadcasts this
listen for emergency broadcasts this
listen for emergency broadcasts this will also charge batteries for
will also charge batteries for
will also charge batteries for electronics and power tools so we can
electronics and power tools so we can
electronics and power tools so we can still build just about anything we need
still build just about anything we need
still build just about anything we need for this next experiment I found an old
for this next experiment I found an old
for this next experiment I found an old piece of steel wire from the back of a
piece of steel wire from the back of a
piece of steel wire from the back of a picture frame and if we try connecting
picture frame and if we try connecting
picture frame and if we try connecting the leads to a piece of that you can see
the leads to a piece of that you can see
the leads to a piece of that you can see that in an instant the wire gets so hot
that in an instant the wire gets so hot
that in an instant the wire gets so hot it melts now if we’ve got that kind of
it melts now if we’ve got that kind of
