Those of you who say ''why not just use a torch?'' this vid is OBVIOUSLY for situations where you dont have one in your car
By jeffjefftyjeff 1184940164 Reply Spam [+6] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove
Those of you who say ''just attach a torch bulb to the wires'' If you had a torch you wont need to do this!
Those of you asking''how can you do this in the dark?'' you can set it all up with the interior light inside your car, the point of the vid is to produce light in area like the engine etc WHERE THERE IS NO LIGHT....
Just had to get that off my chest... dumb people annoy me :-)

Well, if you happen to carry around a multitude of resitors, and a voltage tetster so you know how much voltage the bulb can handle, your plan would be great. The battery of your car puts out way over the amount needed to instantly blow out the filament in the bulb.

The genius in this plan is that the lead receives enough electricity lights up and burns brightly.6991969 - 3

- voltage is just a measurement of...
electrical charge through resistance.
By cryptographrix 1231050012 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove
The measurement to pay attention to in this instance is amperage.
In this case, the problem with just using an interior light is that there's nothing to stop the battery from pushing >=50-80A to the bulb. As such, a regular bulb would fry almost immediately. The graphite works because it shorts the connection and releases the excess energy as light and heat (somebody can correct me on this, but I believe the word is 'oxidizes').
In a regular bulb, the filament is so small that it would melt from the amount of current trying to bridge the gap between + and -...and, possibly worse, could cause the battery to short since the contacts are so close together on a bulb (battery short ~= battery boom).
11074166 - 5
- do you even own a car?
if the bulb would blow or the battery would short out it would not be in the car. the wires that power it int. light have the same amps and volts that came from the battery to begin with test it with a voltage tester at the light then at the battery there the same. i would now i a m an electrician and a mechanic, certified in both.

Have you ever heard of OHMS law ? V =I X R.Lets take for instance your comment about an interior light.The average resistance of an interior light bulb in a car is 3 ohms using ohms law I = VR the current flowing in circuit is 4 amps not 50-80 as you have stated.This video is extremely reckless in sugesting that this is an alternative solution to using a torch if someone were to accidently short the speaker cables as used in the video they could get severly burned or explode the battery,if you look closely at one of their demostrations you can see the speaker wire glow white.This wire is probally carring about 30 amps thats was never designed for and if it takes 20 mins to change a tyre you battery is dead anyway.

- The Mirror Must Be A Bother : p
The reason this video receives such criticism is simple. It is a matter of presentation. If it were done in a Bill Nye Science Guy manner or a Jackass style 'Hey look what happens when I connect a pencil lead to a car battery', then it would be fine. The problem is believing it to have a practical application outside of a MacGyver episode. Seriously, don't worry about stocking up on pencils or ripping out your speakers. Just buy a damned flashlight.

Anyways, thats a cool video, good for signaling as well, but its short lasting, and just so you all know
when you use ANYTHING that gives off heat or electricity (even static,) and gives a good amount (Not like a cell phone ringing which gives off a bit of energy) you have an instand flamethrower in your hands since that sparks off the gas and in the tank, FLAMES!!!
P.S. With some experimentation. you can indeed replace a tungsten wire with pencil lead, it would only last for several minutes though5454812 - 1
- the mater is the Idea
This case its not only for damaged car on dark, the idea is to torch from panicle , it's may let you produce it for other stuff, but please take extremely care not to short cut the wire to avoid battery explosion.

graphite isnt toxic. pencil makers havent used "lead" in pencils for a long time. if pencils were toxic, i'd be dead. i have had a pencil point stuck in my hand for the past 5 years. if graphite were toxic, it would absorb into my bloodstream and kill me from the inside out. it's not though. the reason for this is because when you write with a pencil it gives off minute specks of dust. if a whole school were to use pencils every day, all day, the district would be paying for the kids' deaths and the teachers. think about it. Okay yes lead is poison if ingested, inhaled, or absorbed. there is truth there, but my point being is its not toxic. try it out.

now, if it were actually lead (Pb), that'd be a whole diff story, with completely different results when you connect with speaker wire...something more like a heating element with very little light.

Actually they used a similar method to create light in the movie "Little Monsters". In that movie they use a few pencils, some wire, and an old fashioned wall-mounted telephone. The trick with the telephone was the fact that antique ones required you to crank the crank in order to generate power and charge up the capacitors so that you could talk to the operator and have them connect you to the person you wanted to call.
Anyway, it's rather surprising that a silly kids film full of fantasy worlds would have proper science used as a plot point. In fact it's science that most adults wouldn't even know.

Pencil lead is made of graphite, which is conductive, but not just plain graphite, it's pressed graphite dust, sometimes with some softener paste, for the softer leads. I'd have to say this wont work with any pencil, the very soft lead will just smoke itself out, while the harder leads will probably just crack from the heat, so don't rely on your pencil, better get one of them lighters with LED in your glove box; it shines brightly and if not enough you can start a fire with it, like make a torch of your underwear or something.

that this seems a bit like a carbon rod lamp? Not that this is a bad idea, but if you ever have to use it, make sure you DO NOT LOOK AT IT DIRECTLY. You will assuredly go blind. Carbon-rod lamps use a spark in an electric current jumping between two (uh, duh) carbon rods to create strong light.

- Nice but dangerous
Nice trick but very dangerous! The pencil lead is extremely hot. Nice thing to know is that this method was used in past to create lights instead of the now mostly used wolfram. Our teacher onces showed this to us, they are pretty light and it's fun to see. Also it's pretty nice to let the shell around it and sharpen both ends and then putting some power on it ;) Gives a bit of smoke and fire ;)

so i was trying to make some light (nothing important, just experimental) i hooked up a regular .7 MM mechnanical pencil refill lead and hooked 2 wires, one on each end, and put it into a ordnary wall outlet, it exploded with a small boom...i hooked it up to a modem (dsl) and gave it to my friend and scared the hell out of him, try it!

I thought Videos started making money when they go over 20,000 views - I see 29,631 views - but still a candidate???

Is so F**king COOL!!!
too bad you have to have wire around, the other essential component
i dont know anything about electronics, so im guessing it's ok to touch the wire's metal as it's connected to the batter? (it looks like your touching the plain metal wire! and... that cant be right!)
Help me before I hurt myself!!!

My car stopped and i tried to slit the pencil exactly into two halves, lost two fingers under the blade, managed to light up the lead , tried to check if i had gas or not and lost my life

But if it is night (=its dark) and you dont have a light how do you attach it to your cars battery???
By TheKillmaster 1185270644 Reply Spam [-2] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove- 0
u could just light the pencil on fire. it will last quite a bit. id say about 2 or 3 mins. otherwise keep a torch with u
By kiavash9 1185156408 Reply Spam [-2] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove- 0
i tried this with a 9v battery for fun and just got smoke =[ i used a heavier gauge wire and i think thats why it didnt work... besides that, very cool

Just one question. How poisonous is that lead fume? It doesn't look very safe.
By thatonetom 1185068713 Reply Spam [-2] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove- 0

then you should have some sort of an emergency light in your car, too!
By community 1184966400 Reply Spam [-2] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove- 0

You shouldn't be able to get your hands on any real LEAD pencils they will market themselves as lead but they are graphite (a type of carbon). Just so you guys know =)
By Pixelized 1184853603 Reply Spam [-2] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove- 0
if u cant see to do the thing you need light to do, how are u meant to break up a pencil etc and connect it to the battery etc!
