The best part was when you cut the power supply cord short then added wire back to make it longer. Mark Rober better watch out for you.

Nice idea of using a laptop converter for a spot welder. Suggestions for the future: If you're going to tinker with electronics, buy a soldering iron. When you wrap wires together, get in the habit of wrapping in a right hand direction. That way if you need to use wire nuts, the wrap will already be in the correct direction. Why in the world didn't you just chuck up the carbon rod in the drill instead of twisting/wadding up the sandpaper? Since all you used the rod for was to jam it with the wire in the sparkplug, you could have just used a file to make a flat side on the round rod...much faster. Keep in mind that the spark plug body is insulated from the rod, but not the electrode sticking out the bottom (underneath the curved contact). Your finger was very close to it, and if you happened to touch it and the "ground" clip, you will get a nice "surprise". Cover all of the bottom of the sparkplug with tape. Lastly, if you want to appear to know what you're talking about, the wires inside of a cord are not called "components"; they're just wires. Components are things like resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes, etc.

I normally only fool with soldering an existing circuit board i have, if I have gotten robbed again, the capacitor discharged, hopefully shocked the thief. As they yank out either my bass or mid amp. We are 3 vehicles deep into my career by the time I was robbed or an idiot had attempted it so often. I just knew the whole unreleased wiring scheme Ford SVT Lightning still 21 years later is held secret. I am still waiting my turn with the official copy of the diagram book from the forums. One of the times, the shock was so severe, that whichever amp they tried for, it melted the fuses deep into the body of the other amp. I got it out, and had to take it apart to get all the melted fuse taken out. I grew up on a ranch. There are regular generator and gas tanks and tinted helmet to weld nice metal pipe fence. Then there is disaster mode a family member is getting his arm and the fence busted by one of our bulls. Pap gas in a torch is good for things that need a full welding rig, but just "brazing" the metal with it is enough to get the fence to hold, and the heat scares the bull away. It is a good zombie apocalypse skill to have, or weapon to use in a riot. Respect it's power and wear eyewear if you can.. I've used metal parts left by people moving out of my complex to build things with. My brain got stirred up because someone left fully welded stuff by the dumpster today. I keep that tank on my back porch in a toolbox. Don't even think of indoor storage. Most thugs today would think it might be a different brand of butane torch. I don't want it in my garage. Hopefully nobody tests it out or wants to steal it. It gets impressively hot very fast. Your post just reminded me how dangerous physics, electricity, chemistry can be if a person without college education and decent scary labs can be. You know some future people are going to try to build up a DIY eV charging port. Fires will happen. If you are not good at math; please do not do anything with power supplies or transformers. Nobody benefits.

Good ideas here but a few things I am lost on - a. Why cut the cord when you could have just cut the plug at the end and used the wires as is. b. Why use a spark plug - just as a holder ?🤔🤔. A piece of wood would do the same job. c. Why not use the spark plug electrode itself instead of using a carbon rod? It is already platinum or iridium to withstand sparks. Just a few thoughts to ponder upon ....

The graphite rod is a resistance that if someone is lucky enough, will limit current enough for the PSU protection circuit to not shut off the output. Better technique would be to reserve it for spot welding, put a resistor in series to limit inrush current to a capacitor bank in series, so you simply wait a few seconds to charge up the capacitor bank, then are discharging it to do the spot weld. No spark plug or battery core required, just low gauge wire and durable/replaceable electrode. A very short piece of 12ga solid core wire as a replaceable tip in a screwed-clamp setup would do nicely if it just needs to be cheap and use scraps lying around anyway.

You are just very wrong, stop thinking you're being fooled, not everything is a conspiracy. He was using a computer power supply, and the reason the power supply protection wasn't tripped is because he has the carbon rod, and that rod has resistance so the power supply doesn't see this as a "short" circuit. Of course you need supply with enough amperage to heat up the tip of the carbon rod to a high enough temperature. He doesn't show the amperage but often it's around 3 Amps or so. You can use any power supply with enough amperage, with a higher voltage you would need less amperage to accomplish this. A 12V PC power supply would probably be good too, they often have around 15 Amps or more on the 12V rails. It's the carbon rod that makes this possible, it gets very hot easily. These are very thin materials, for heavier duty welding you'd probably need much more power.

I watched the whole thing to see if it would lead to something useful. Now I know. I'll never get those 11 minutes back. Even IF the "invention" had a real use, the whole project could have been explained in a 1-minute clip. That power supply will fail in short order. It's not made to supply large surges of current.

Начальный этап зачистки проводов, взятие графитового стержня из пальчиковой батарейки, использование старой автомобильной свечи, как держатель. Сварка аккумуляторов, сопряжена с трудностям, нет: прижима, регулировки тока и времени разряда, да и сам ИБП работает на перегрузке, глазки надо беречь. Но идея хорошая, если в средствах ограничен.

1) It was unnecessary to shorten the wires. 2) You could have put an alligator clip on both ends and the graphite on one while holding the non sparking end with pliers. OR...3) Attach the wire to the end of a copper cored sparkplug, cut off the ground electrode and used that. Any or all of these would have been more sensible than the needlessly overwrought method you have used here.
