It’s not an electroboom video if something doesn’t explode
CAUSE ITS NOT WATER & MOISTER BUILD UP PROOF...only FULL COATED PLASTIC LED BULBS ARE..THEY ARE SEALED TO SOCKET SCREW..SO PEOPLE SHOULD NOT USED IT AT OUTSIDE OR BATHROOMS
PT4516 Chip Was Manufactured in China ! Then It Is 0.00001 % Chance That It'll Work Fine For Years XD
We tried Kiwico, it's great, especially the Ukulele!
I just subscribed. Is it normal for him to get shocked all the time? Also is there an uncensored version of these videos
چی بگم
LED tubelights are the best , they give soft and white light and are cost effective too.
I don't know how you still alive 🤣
4:15 casually snuck in 34, 69 and 420. Man of culture.
خسته نباشی برادر
it's not just LED lights, it's anything made in China. I don't care to get into a political argument, I am going by my age, and purchasing items for decades, made in the USA, Japan, Taiwan, or other countries. I never had this issue until everything started being made in China (including all the components). Items I purchasd use to last for years and years. A washing machine made in China I purchased, lasted 18 Months (I don't even do that much laundry, as I don't have children living at home). I never had a washing machine last less then 15 years in the past, and I have been living in the same house for over 40 years (the manufacturer dispatched a repair man, he tried to blame it on my water quality, or pipe drain setup, which is nonsense, because like I said I live in the same house for over 40 years, and nothing changed). Russia has started manufacturing their own capacitors and other components,so not to fall victim of China's built in design for thing products to break quickly. I am lucky if a computer keyboard lasts a few months now, and headsets and other computer components I purchase now, last about a year.
It's not about where it's made, it's about the quality of components. Blame the big companies. Not the country 😂.
I started buying 800-lumen LED bulbs (60w equivalent) at the dollar store. None have died, and it's been a year and a half.
ain't the led. under the led is circuitry with a timer that shuts off. A reverse engineer proved this to me.. They sell bulbs. If they don't wear out?
Bro I watched this guy when I was 5 it's been six years and I just found his channel again man this brings back memories.
You're 11 and on youtube???
So even the 'high end' LED bulbs only rectify the AC and don't have a capacitor to smooth it out. In other words, the bulb still flashes at 60hz. That would explain why some slow-mo videos look like they were taken at a rave. LEDs have so much potential and can give such a nice even lighting, but instead we get a 60hz strobe light.
best youtuber
wait all LED lamp have warranty? do people claim the warranty?
Funniest thing is that when I buy the cheapest ones from my local store, they don't fail, literally never had any of them fail, and they're all over my house. When I buy Phillips or other brands, they always die very shortly, and get replaced with the cheap ones. I guess the big brands led's are just overengineered and have some failure points the cheap ones don't have. But honestly I'm just lucky with that cheap brand since I've tried other cheap brands and they were terrible.
The present slice potentially nest because footnote prenatally drown vice a hanging prepared. vast, handy secure
Isn't that actually going to make it last longer.....
Mom:Do your homework or no xbox Me: 1:22
Some of my incandecents have lastet for over four years now i believe.
I have some pretty good LED lightbulbs in my room and most of my house, altough i live with my parents so i can't tell them to change all the lightbulbs, my father is an electrician, so most of the lightbulbs in my house are already LED If i made any grammatical or spelling mistakes sorry, i'm italian and english is my second language
KiwiCo have to be the coolest sponsor on the whole internet, those project look so cool.
Maybe the manufacturers meant 10,000 hours of use while moving at 99% the speed light😏 4:14
Ill explain how does warranty for lightbulbs works. You go to the store show them the box with 10y warranty and a broken buld. Then they tell you to f*ck off, so you decide to spare yourself the effort and buy a new ones.
If i remember well lightbulbs were made faulty on purpose so they will break and the company can sell them agin. So maybe its the case with these lights too. TBH manufacturer would have to be insanely incompetent to be unable to make waterproof lights.
You buy cheap shit you get diarrhea. Spend a little bit more and get better quality. Mine have been working for years.
Who remembers Mehdi’s daughter from 4-5 years ago?
Kiwi is a food store in Norway 🇳🇴
In Europe you get osram..
I feel the SAME way! I rage so hard when these LED lights with huge lifetimes fails in 6 months. GGGGRRRRRRRRR!!!!! And I also have some of these outdoor bulbs with water inside. ARGH!
Sir, Please make some tutorial for solving transistor circuit.
the led in my room is sill going more than 3yrs but it lost 50% of its brightness. and I'm not changing it and tell it dies.
The roomy numeric specially fry because slave pathophysiologically pull modulo a callous turkey. acidic, rainy owl
ummmmmmmmmm the last video i watched of yours your daughter was so much younger. who knew that time traveling kids existed
I've been able to get 4 plus years of use from the larger LED lights that claim to be the equivalent of a 60 watt non LED light.
Well my Mirrabella brand LED bulbs have been working for 2 years so far. They are 240 VAC.
very educational. minus the electrocution scenes 😅
سلام ایرانی
Let’s be honest nobody understands anything he says but just watches for the good content
Hey electro boom, what power supply do you use? I wanna get the one
BigMhediDotCom?
Hey Mehdi, I was wondering why I can’t get a continuity reading when testing an operational LED bulb. Can you help me figure this out??? Also, what is your take on these diy oscilloscope kits?
On above of your black shoes
Can you tour is to your small container cabinet on right side of your lulzbot 3d printed.
Haha electro go boom
Imagine getting pinged by ElectroBOOM
Pity - KiwiCo do not ship to Russia
Vertasium did a video on why nice things don't last: because they're designed to fail for economic reasons.
1:53 Loose wires, AVOID THEM.
My Easy Bake Oven doesn't like led bulbs.
Just buy the cheap leds from aliexpress and expect them to lie about the watt ratings... still less than half the price of other places so if it only lasts 12 months who cares. Sometimes you get lucky and have a light that works beyond 2 years. Manufacturers know nobody can be arsed with returning leds for warranty, costs more than its worth to send it back.
4:45 All the reason you need to know why they're cheap and crappy.
Ok so it should still be in glass, if that is good enough to stop water from leaking in.
Led are designed to fail and rhe led companies got pissed off when dubai ordered they need to make multi filament bulbs and run them at lower power so they dont burn themselves out so quick.(he get to that in half of the video)
5:21 i almoust got nightmares due to testing a 12V tiny battery of my bycicle speedometer. So i dont want to touch this with my tounge. (if you test 12 V with your tounge you will literally see flashes in your eyes. Dont know why, probably the electricity is messing with the nerves of your eyes, but THIS *ISNT* A JOKE
As the channels say - Boom
electrocute is a teenager now, I feel old
So good content good luck...
You are right
Gotta love cheap china JUNK
omfg so much jump scare.
mythbusters once did test of all kinds of lights, LED died out first.
If you have electric heating with a thermostat and use the heating most of the year (for instance, most of Canada) you are not saving that much energy by dropping incandescent.
See veritasium video for details why manufacturer are insufficient.
Sad thing is: the manufacturers make them deliberately last shorter than they actually would to sell more. Its called planned obsolescence. Nearly every modern product is affected by planned obsolescence.
how you still alive?
چطوری خون دل😁
too many shocks losing faith in electricity
Why don't cheap LED bulb manufacturers use a capacitor and limit the current flow with impedance instead of pure resistance? If a failing capacitor creates a much bigger problem than an inefficient and short lived resistor, I can understand that. Just curious
0:36 Capillary action
I think it's been a while since your daughter has been in a video. She's growing up fast. Make sure the boys at school have seen your stun gun videos ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡ Oh man I'm not looking forward to my little girl growing up.
Omg when he said “FUUUULL” just fantastic
Meanwhile, I have an incandescent light bulb from 2008, and it works just fine. Talk about planned obsolescence.
1:22 his daughter makes Forza Horizon 4 ae86 noises

In my city Wichita Kansas USA, the city upgraded a bunch of street lights to LED. After a short period of time the lights color shifted and many of them are now a deep purple blue color. We have one of them on our corner. It’s almost like a super bright black light! 😂The city is working with the manufacture to get replacements.
4:14 *RULE 34-69-420* 😂😂😂
The MTBF of a led light is what is mentioned, usually around 20,000-50,000 hours. However there is another factor involved. It is AQL, the maximum percent that can be considered satisfactory during production. This can range from 2.5%-4%. So what has happened is that the led lights you have that broke down, are probably in that 2.5%-4%. Of course it also depends on the way that the defective ones are distributed by the manufacturer. And who they are distributed to.
Came across a light bulb recently that advertised with 10000 years lifetime.
Electrocute grew up so fast, I feel like I got thanos snapped then professor hulk snapped 5 years later.
IP44 is not sufficient for external use _at all_! You can use it in an environment with rough dirt (>= 1mm particle size) and seldom sprinkled water. Not condensation!
Wow your daughter have grown a lot, time flys by
It's amazing how he forgets about that probe ground thing almost every time when probing AC mains...
can you recommend a long lasting 240v/ac light bulb for uk use
So.. Summary: Evolution of bulbs went from Incandecent to inconvenience 😅
With a father like ElectoBOOM, ElectroCUTE will go places.
His hidden talent is "beatbox" (Echoes)
That led light bulb circuit came in clutch for me when I need diodes for my project
1st thing to get lost in any garage. 10mm socket.
You can return the Amazon stuff. I do it all the time. They are very good refunding for faulty stuff.
Shot on I phone meme introduced me to this channel

I think u will be 💯 fine if strike by lighting 😃
holyshit, havnt watched this channel much in a while, your daughter has gone from a young child to a teen already! :O
We got something new! I want you to make an air raid siren.
I bought an LED light bulb for the kitchen for my mother and after a week it broke. I love this quality 🥴
So today's sponser is.... Me :- video 🔨5 sec*1000....
What they did in Dubai & not sell their lights should be illegal
I have one miniature incandescent christmas tree light that is running non-stop since 24-december-1968... I simply don't believe in LED light bulbs!!
If you can find some European incandescent lamps that are rated for 230 Volts, they run a bit dim but they never burn out on 120 Volts.
Sir, try building a telekinesis device
