Mehdi from ElectroBOOM demonstrates the relationship between voltage and amperage by reducing the output voltage of a microwave transformer to the point that it produces massive amounts of current. Expect lots of buzzing noises, noxious smoke, math equations, and melted objects along the way.

ElectroBOOM’s Mehdi Sadaghdar often makes videos about electricity and ends up shocking himself. But in this clip, he uses his powers to create something beautiful. His magical fairyland lantern is filled with LED “fireflies” that dance around on a cushion of air and are powered wirelessly via induction.

Do you have trouble waking up? Mehdi from ElectroBOOM has the solution. He built an alarm clock designed to startle you from your sleep by blowing up capacitors. The trick is an alarm clock that triggers a rotating magazine that holds ten capacitors and applies a high-voltage power source.

Mehdi Sadaghdar was jealous of the views of an obviously fake video showing a magnetically-powered water cannon, so he decided to try and create something real that would approximate the same effect. Naturally, his experiments involved playing with dangerous electrical currents. Get ready to lower your expectations, folks.

Mehdi Sadaghdar from ElectroBOOM has made a career out of playing with electricity. He teamed up with Gav and Dan of The Slow Mo Guys to shoot some high-voltage sparks from his tesla coil and Marx generator. They managed to capture some incredible shots at speeds up to 1,750,000 frames per second. Here’s Mehdi’s video.

Musician and maker Mattias Krantz has done some pretty crazy things to pianos. This time, he teamed up with Mehdi Sadaghdar of Electroboom to create the most dangerous piano ever. Using a bunch of cheap camera capacitors, he modified his hammer-head piano to create high-voltage sparks when played.

After watching a video from Plasma Channel which explored the possibilities of levitating objects with electrostatic energy, Mehdi from ElectroBOOM decided to see if he could replicate the experiment. Naturally, it’s not an ElectroBOOM video without delivering a jolt or ten to its host.

Electrical engineer Mehdi Sadaghdar of ElectroBOOM presents a series of simple demonstrations involving magnets, batteries, and wires, each of which might seem magical, but can all be easily explained by science. He might have a goofy approach to teaching, but if you stick around, you might learn a thing or two.

“You know what they say about AC? It Hertz!” Want to learn the differences between alternating current and direct current? Mehdi from ElectroBOOM is here to lay down the law on the not so subtle ways that these two types of electricity vary. Caution: Science Ahead.

Mehdi Sadaghdar puts on his superhero guise as “The Rectifier” to debunk another ridiculous claim of “free energy,” as he crushes the hopes and dreams of a young inventor who has been making the rounds with his supposed energy-harnessing machine.

(PG-13: Language) Mehdi just wants to know if his buddy got lucky. If only Samy would stop blabbing and get to the point. Then the day’s beatdown from the cops would be so mundane. We sincerely hope Sébastien Petretti’s comedy short film remains a hyperbole.

ElectroBOOM’s Mehdi Sadaghdar is mad as hell, and he’s not going to take it anymore. After seeing way too many videos of fake science and “lifehacks,” he decided to do something about it, and debunked a few of the more heinous ones.

ElectroBOOM’s Mehdi Sadaghdar expresses his disdain for “perpetual motion” devices which are claimed to produce more energy than is put into them, thus defying the basic laws of physics. The only thing these guys seem to be able to actually generate are YouTube views.

ElectroBOOM needed a vacuum chamber to see if his Tesla coil will still make sparks in a vacuum. But instead of buying one or looking up guides, he decided to wing it. “Sometimes spending money saves you more money and time.” We coulda told you that, Mehdi.

ElectroBOOM’s Mehdi Sadaghdar debunks the outlandish claims of Biba Struja, aka “The Battery Man,” who says he’s not only impervious to electric shocks (which Mehdi knows all about,) but that his body actually generates a meaningful amount of power.

Mehdi Sadaghdar takes on a fake life hack that’s gotten roughly 48 million views because it supposedly shows how to make a wireless smartphone charger that works from up to 50 feet away. He contemplates giving in to fakery, but ends up turning into the hero we need.
