Making a Pranker-BOOMer Photo-Sensor

Making a Pranker-BOOMer Photo-Sensor



Get your ElectroBOOM Bundle at and start experimenting electronics at lower price!
Also maybe instead of using the circuit in the video to prank, you could use it as intruder alarm, light switch based on room light, or whatever else! It is a useful circuit. Just be careful around high voltage!

0:00 Intro to the Test
2:31 The Theory Behind the Wire
3:12 Turning an LED on Through a Long Loop
10:22 The TEST, See the Electric Wave Reflections

Here you will see how a transmission line actually works, the electric fields that travel at the speed of light through the loop, reflections of waves from the ends of the line and how impedance matching, or not matching, changes the reflection of the waves
