When you dropped that bulb, we all felt the tears of a thousand suns. Congrats on the 5, 000, 000 subs, and enjoying yet another RF burn!

the floating head drawing on the whiteboard is an excellent idea, please keep doing that!

[thedefaultguy]

Can we just appreciate his drawing skills the way he was explaining us the construction of the magic wand on the software 😂

[marsgizmo]

Huge congrats Mehdi! Well deserved! 👏😎
3D Printing for the win!
..water-cooled magic wand.. 👀

You can use ferrite dust mixed into epoxy, gives much higher density of ferrite while also decreasing the maximum conductive length from the size of the rods to the size of the ferrite particle. I'd give it an external plain epoxy coat to cover any exposed bits of ferrite from the casting though.

This green screen - headless whiteboard thingy is amazing! :D
Maybe 3D printed stuff wasn't a good idea with high volgate that generates so much heat, melting the filament :/

BTW, 3M Scotch® Self-Fusing Silicone Rubber Electrical Tape 70 has an elecrical insulation rating of 34k volts per mm of thickness.... that should be really useful in a project like that. Either between the two coils, around the screw that was too long, or between the secondaty and a solid ferro core...

It is good to see a legend not stopping, but evolving even after 10 years, and still keeping the old traditions and humor, you deserve that 5mil.

[PaulVes]

I have a new favorite phrase, "Look at that fluffy plasma!". Congrats on reaching 5, 000, 000. You deserve it!

Pro-tip that I learned recently: you can thin out the epoxy with acetone and then paint it on to the secondary coil with a brush. It'll be less messy. (learned about that from a video about making voice coils for home-made speakers)

5:30."then we sand it until it's as smooth as your brains"
Lmfao, didn't expect to get roasted like that

[Electrolab-Eletronica]

Congratulations Mehdi on 5 million subs! You really deserve it for sharing electrical/electronics knowledge in a unique and fun way!

[Jxdiac]

The electricity going over the surface being so clearly captured by the camera is one of the coolest things I've seen this year

[MarlonNardi]

Congrats Mehdi! Like I said before, the best professor ever!

[caseyleirer]

I just ordered a DIY tesla coil, and I’m so excited. I’ve been learning programming, but I took a detour into electronics when I found electrobooms videos.

[playbyan]

2:47 this is genious, I loved it when he doing new stuffs.

[evancarpenter]

Congratulations!!! That moment at 2:40 is exemplary of how you think outside the box and are truly innovative! You make these topics so amazing and engaging!!!

[mckinleybates]

been watching this guy since i was 12, the fact he still kept making videos after all this time really shows how dedicated he is, he really has earned 5 mil subs the long way. congrats man, you earned this bro.

[theinterruptedlife]

You sir are legendary, playing with literal electrons and creating arcs at will! So m any concepts are learnt while doing projects, I love it!

[JaidenIGuessWasTaken]

12:26 nice safety margin on that insulator! always nice to see insulators fail in a flashover and not a puncture.
