I think the handle's a little short

[-] xavier666@lemm.ee 21 points 11 months ago

The maker is probably not aware of the current battery sizes

[-] SaltyIceteaMaker@iusearchlinux.fyi 13 points 11 months ago

He might be schocked by a batteries potential

[-] xavier666@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago

While making such devices, one should be grounded to reality to avoid making such mistakes

[-] SomeBoyo@feddit.de 15 points 11 months ago

We don't know. There is no banana for scale.

And warmer!

[-] sagrotan@lemmy.world 50 points 11 months ago

I once made a deadplug, I was kinda distracted and ended up with a cable with two male plugs. Hangs on my shop wall as memento for "focus on what you're doing" or something.

[-] MajorMajormajormajor@lemmy.ca 28 points 11 months ago

Reminds me of this.

[-] Sludgeyy@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

It's a suicide cord. Works great for generators

[-] kamen@lemmy.world 49 points 11 months ago

In short, this is a battery handle.

[-] Natanael@slrpnk.net 29 points 11 months ago

It will unleash the battery's potential

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 16 points 11 months ago
[-] Belgdore@lemm.ee 10 points 11 months ago

Perhaps, but I think we’ll see a high level of resistance.

[-] Onsotumenh@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 11 months ago

That might be a hot take.

Considering that a 12V battery has an internal resistance of 20 milliohms, the potential current through this thing would be approximately 600A.

It might be too hot to handle (pun intended)

[-] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 6 points 11 months ago

You can also get that from just the label. The CCA rating (cold cranking amps) is the max current that specific battery can supply in short bursts. 600 CCA is pretty typical, but I've seen up to 900 in the batteries I ship.

Just remember to cut it when you dispose the battery, so that sea turtles won't get stuck in it.

[-] root_beer@midwest.social 6 points 11 months ago

Perfectly. Legal. Thrill.

[-] Underwaterbob@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago

Hmm. Giving it away a bit here. He cringes well before it discharges.

[-] Gabu@lemmy.ml 17 points 11 months ago

Obviously, Mehdi is an electrical engineer. The "dumb guy making things explode" is a persona he puts up to teach people about the dangers and wonders of electricity.

[-] Underwaterbob@lemm.ee 4 points 11 months ago

That's... immensely cool. I wish him luck in his dangerous endeavors.

It was the last thing they made

[-] chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago

With that hand, anyway.

[-] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 21 points 11 months ago

Took me a min to realize...

[-] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 17 points 11 months ago

electroBOOM ⚡

[-] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 14 points 11 months ago

Why does it smell like BBQ in here?

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

If it's plastic, then it's fine.

[-] Sir_Simon_Spamalot@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

A bit of copper would spice things up

Users are calling it a shockingly good invention.
