    "I've never stick welded before" If that's true then I don't think it's a voltage drop issue, but rather a skill issue and lack of preparation, which in this case is just grinding the paint off. I've been stick welding for months and still sometimes weld the electrode to the metal like you did, starting up is an art and it likes clean metal. Sometimes you need to chip the flux off the end of the stick so you have fresh metal there, after a few bad starts the metal can melt up inside the flux and become hard to arc I'm sure all that smoke was the paint burning off 😂

    I'm a bit disappointed, I thought you were to hook up the other side of the cables straight to the metal and electrode, and basically short the power line. Some guys from Ukraine did that years ago. I believe their channel was named Kreosan.

      That's true, it depends on what the "other end" of my electrocution is. Since I'm reaching for the line, I have a very high potential risk to touch the other 120 leg and produce 240 in total. But it's only live with 120 with respect to any water pipe or grounded fixture.

    Nobody cares what you do at your own house. But if the power company finds out you're bypassing the meter and stealing power they're not going to be happy. With that being said. If you pay close enough attention to any open air wire that is really old (60+ years) you'll notice it won't even have any jacketing left on it. In the hood, It's not uncommon to see split bolts installed and wires ran down the pole for bypassing power meters. Jumper cables are a little too obvious. Just make sure you're on the secondary side of the transformer.

    • @unigrampa
      @unigrampa 3 місяці тому

      This was only because I didn't have a 240 outlet and wasn't able to modify the house to install a 240 outlet. I would have used 240 that was metered if I'd had access. I fear that power companies today, expecially mine, are watching too closely and prosecute people too hard for it to be worth risking getting caught.

      One could, ideally you'd place something in series to limit the current. Even if it's as simple as getting a second pair of jumper cables and wrapping them around a big chunk of metal. Homemade inductor.

    • @unigrampa
      @unigrampa 3 місяці тому

      Although you may have to wrap each jumper cable in an opposite direction to prevent the magnetic fluxes cancelling each other out. You couldn't literally wrap both cables together, I don't think.

      I watched a few more videos (including making a starter coil for the 4 stroke single cylinder) on your channel and I have faith _you_ would think to do so. But, just as a random video by a random youtuber that I had never seen before? I would not think that was taken into consideration, I'd expect the level of "I got my shoes wet to properly ground myself, now I can hold the live cable safely"

    Once the motor is hot enough it will theoretically run of compression u may even be able to disconnect the spark and it should run on compression

    • @unigrampa
      @unigrampa 3 місяці тому

      Probably not enough compression. I don't know exactly but 8 to 1 or less. Could even be down around 6 to 1. Diesels generally run, it depends a lot, but roughly 18. I think a diesel can technically work much lower, maybe 12 to 1 ish is the minimum for a practical diesel effect? But this won't work with a carburetor because, if there was enough compression, it would just pre ignite. Diesels prevent pre ignition by only injecting the fuel when they want it to fire. And the butterfly valve affects manifold vacuum, which affects the dynamic compression, which would change the ignition timing as well as the throttle. But I would have seen pre ignition if this had enough compression
