I think you produce quality videos with absolute originality and amazing ideas, but i think the $$$ are a temptation to some stuff that could undermine your integrity.
The traffic light one is dubious in its effectiveness, the laser one is irresponsible and will inevitably hurt someone and this one could result in someone being heavily fined.
Most of your videos are amazing and deserve their rewards.. dont be tempted to sell out, brother.

- It is illegal in Romania,
because you're entitled to use only a reasonable amount of power. By contract you're bound not to exceed let's say 2-3 REN (ringer equivalent). If people start consuming more than a phone, eventually the telecom will fail.

That would not be illegal to post how to do it. It is not illegal to post how to build a nuclear bomb. But, doing it is where it becomes illegal. Look at all the bombs on this site and sites like it. Sure, those are illegal to make (in most areas). But it is not illegal to post how to do it. As far as putting yourself on the payroll goes, you are better off going to school and getting a job there. Getting jobs in phone companies isnt all that hard. People arent exactly lining up outside because they want to go into tons of goofy peoples houses and crawl around in the dark muddy crawl space to run wires.

...as long as you are paying for the phone service to the source. The phone company doesn't care what you use the line for as long as you are paying for it. The phone company provides the dial tone to the interface (the phone box or D-mark as it is also known as) from there the line is usually run into the house where the phone jacks are located. After the interface the phone company has no say what so ever about those lines, in fact we could care less if you run them all over town to provide phones for all your neighbors....as long as the lines are being pain for.
By iwillfightyou 1205886572 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove
Only problem is that a basic 2 pair phone line will have a little bit of power like the video shows, but it is not steady. It will fluctuate drastically through out the day. It will spike to about 78 volts when there is an incoming call but will sit idle at around 48-53 volts (or less as the neighborhood phone usage increases)
But in theory its a cool little idea to run a light or something small8311391 - 1

It is a new source of electricity and not really free.. you pay the phone company for the phone service...the service provides this power to operate the equipment. The only way it would be illegal if you tapped into the phone company and were not paying for the phone line. Bottom line is you are just using your paid for resources more efficiently.

EASILY detectable?? let me ask you a question jk87 - when you went to school, did a short yellow bus with an elevator pick you up? You've been watching too much CSI, my friend. How would they know? because of the HUGE extra draw of 50 volts or so? Jealousy is such an ugly thing. Kip - "they mock that which they cannot understand."

wow, this is extremely dangerous and the author of this video should be ashamed of how irresponsible he is. The phone line is designed for VERY LOW current, neglecting the voltage. If you draw too much power though the line you have the chance of starting a fire in the wall or destroying the line. Im not saying that this is a very bad idea, I'm saying the the author should be ashamed of himself for posting this without any sort of warnings or explanations. If you do not understand electricity, you should not attempt this. Period.

know just enough to make yourself look stupid!! The phone co has what's called a current limit monitor on the line. even with a complete short the wires are in no danger of overheating and starting a fire. if you do noy understand electricity you should not comment about it!! Kipkay made no warning because it was not necessary!!

Sarting a fire in the wall from a very low current source. Go to school kid.
By gonzoni 1192395187 Reply Spam [+4] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removetoo bad its not a current source jackass. Its a voltage source and if you dont think that you can start a nice fire with 50-100 volt... I dont know what to tell you except nice knowing you.
To the first post above mine, I did not know there was current limit monitor on phone lines.. Thanks! However, dont you think that would have been worth noting in the video so that someone doesnt try to pull too much through and alert the phone company or cause their device to malfunction?
Does anybody here actually have any idea what the current limit is?
You know how I feel KipKay, haha just kidding. Great Idea 5*s
it is safe don't worry, if he uses allot of power then the servers of the phone company would get off, mean while sucking too much current by the bulb can cause the server to stop sending phone signals automatically. then the phone would be off. then why are u talking about Fire? there is no fire, because of low current.
By Samimy 1192333383 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removethere are many people know about Electricity, let's see what they would say, it is interesting.
By Samimy 1192365634 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveHe said more than once this is a emergency source of energy. And that lamp won't suck too much power.
By Aines 1192347897 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeyes he said I heard.
By Samimy 1192365576 Reply Spam [-1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI worked for over 10 years installing and maintaining phone line monitoring equipment, it monitors the line and will report the increase in load. The lines use 50 volts due to the distance the signal must travel, there is no protection except at the junction so if you do this wrong you can cause big problems.
Also if the line monitor detects a change in the line voltage it will report a fault, the phone company is only responsible up to the socket so if they rewire the circuit then conclude the fault is in your house you could get the bill. So don't say I didn't warn anyone.

Do not do this. No, its not detectable but you risk damaging inside wiring and equipment. its called REN. Its been around since phones had actual bells ringers on them.

a federal crime, and the safety issue has nothing to do with circuit design or voltage, but with the current (amperage). Phone cords and jacks are not rated for that level of amperage. The older, light-up phones had a MUCH larger cord. Today's phone cords are much smaller and more flexible. Just cause it has worked for years w/o a problem does not mean it's a good idea.

I have a Moto SurfBoard Cable/VoIP modem that supplies the power and with a backup battery too. A VoIP modem would not be a good idea because in a power outage, the battery would drain, but it is not tapping the phone company's grid so VoIP is in ways better and worse. Also, I checked with local VZ and they said it is legal to do this but is not recommended since I do not have the proper knowledge or equipment to utilize it properly. Also notice that in phones that do not have an external power source have transformers in them and also do not have CID display because of low current. My knowledge, so please bring up yours if I'm wrong here.

Dont get any bright ideas with the flashing light thing.

But he was accidentally putting 240 v back into the phone lines, which then shorted or something and burnt half his house down.
By the way jk87, how do they detect it, is it because that power is constantly being used, not just when theres an incoming call?

The voltage that comes out of a phone outlet is DC (as opposed to AC which comes out of the wall). I noticed that even your meter is set to DC Volts. The purpose of a bridge rectified is to convert AC voltage to DC. You should be able to accomplish this with only an LM7812 voltage regulator to bring it down to 12 volts.

the morality of this is quite questionable, and you should have at least included a warning about the legality issues.

The voltage regulator will get very hot in this circuit. If you're lucky, the regulator will burn out before it starts a fire.

I mean come on, if your not modifying your jack or anything. It's Electricity that already flows through your jack, you didn't hack into it. Your using what already exists. Everytime someone post a video, someone either says it's fake or how illegal it is, or they already knew about it. I thinks it's because they have no life and are jealous someone else has the brains to come up with it. Awsome vid, not illegal in ithe least, just using what is already there! Thanks Kip. Another great job. 5 star

will you guys get off kip's balls. it seems like every video there is someone out there trying to figure out something wrong with his vids, or trying to knock them by leaving comments that are false. you are paying the damn phone company anyway. phone companies dont charge you for power. so unless you have solid proof, dont bring that mess here about it being illegal, or irresponsible, because i guarantee there is not one person under 18 that knows how to do half this stuff.

By scam_hunter 1199692701 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove
On the other hand, creating a video that advises people to perform dangerous and illegal modification is less than honorable. As several others have explained, this kind of project is illegal in most countries, despite Kip's intuition that you *might* evade detection. Furthermore, its dangerous since you're working with higher than normal voltages, even if it's current limited.7637896 - 1

if it is a fix line, they will detect you when you use internet connection with it. i use mauritius telecom, with the myt internet service, it when i use the trick my modem gets disconnected from there server and they come to check what happens but beware in other country it may be more dangerous than mine.

i tried this one when a i was in high school...
you have just to convert the AC to DC by using rectifier diodes...

i just don't know if those were still working these days,i haven't visit that old house awhile...
good job anyway...

if u say this is illegal or that this doesnt work in your country u an idiot.. the phone line will always have power and its not illegal nor is it traceable.. for fcuks sake the power goes thru the line to power up the handset u bloody idiots!! u honestly thot phones dont use power??? u an idiot!!! they dude tell ur teacher to go fcuk himself if its a lady tell her to call me and i'll fcuk her if she's younger than 23

Why don´t you pot on your web page step by stpe in all vids, or something like that.

as long as you are paying for the phone service to the source. The phone company doesn't care what you use the line for as long as you are paying for it. The phone company provides the dial tone to the interface (the phone box or D-mark as it is also known as) from there the line is usually run into the house where the phone jacks are located. After the interface the phone company has no say what so ever about those lines, in fact we could care less if you run them all over town to provide phones for all your neighbors....as long as the lines are being pain for.
Only problem is that a basic 2 pair phone line will have a little bit of power like the video shows, but it is not steady. It will fluctuate drastically through out the day. It will spike to about 78 volts when there is an incoming call but will sit idle at around 48-53 volts (or less as the neighborhood phone usage increases)
But in theory its a cool little idea to run a light or something small

This is like taking the gas out of the mail truck who delievers our mail. Also like our politicians who use our taxs for their own self servering desires. Do you also hire a plumber then use his FREE truck to pickup stuff while he is not looking? The truth is the phone company pays to produce the power and then passes the cost on to everyone. Thanks for adding costs.
FCC part 68 is where you find the legal stuff.
Maybe that kid who burned himself could use some help.
Ps when I find out how much power a phone line will carry the techinal details will follow.

IT is only free until you get caught.
His circuit has no fuses or other protection in it. If perchance this things shorts with 50 volts on it you could get a 50 amp surge through these elctronic devices. thats eoungh to start a fire. If you burn up part of your house and the fire deptment determines you have a home made device that caused it. not some UL listed device that has gone through TESTING then you are SCREWED! No insurance! But hey if you like the risk you might end up in the Darwin awards. We'll all get a laugh then!!!! HA hA ha ha ha

If you have FiOS (fiber optic) phone lines (verizon) the jack gets its power from an 8 hour battery that hooks up to your own power. So really you would then be paying for it.

26 guage phone wire, which is the smallest you can buy is rated at 363mA. that means you would have to have more than 36 of these attatched to one phone jack to overheat the wire.
