Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@UFAnders says : Hey Thunderfoot, I'm trying to disassemble one of these to fix a "CLOSE DOOR" problem. How did you separate the outer shell from the internals? I've been unable to separate them even after locating all the snap retainers. Any help is appreciated! 🙏🏻>> <<@H0mework says : This is the only teardown video of this dryer, thanks for this part. 17:10>> <<@Noguantes says : I just got one for $20 off of Marketplace but it doesn’t tumble. Have any ideas how to fix?>> <<@edwardparker760 says : You have to hand ir to them, at least they made it hard to get into.>> <<@FizzleFX says : They have to go to jail for this. No debate. Not even a hearing. Police kicks door in and thats that. How is this different from theft?>> <<@readonly1234 says : I almost bought this one in a outlet shopping site. Thank you for great work.>> <<@Ravonies_Ravenshir says : Up next, making a Real Vacuum Dryer :3>> <<@tonydean7543 says : Thunderf00t, you are an amazing scientist and chemist and I love your debunking videos, but based on this video, please don't apply for a job in an appliance service department haha!>> <<@tldcollins says : What’s the peak wavelength of the UV LED?>> <<@6teeth318-w5k says : Only thing i have backed on Indie gogo was the game, " Dead matter ". Which happened, but not. 35 dollars, but i knew i could lose my money. 35 dollars i could afford.>> <<@ericaespinoza3738 says : Mine completely broke. It makes a rattling noise>> <<@michael1704 says : What spectrometer are you using? I’m curious because I bought a red light bar to treat my tendinitis and I’d like to measure the wavelength to see if it’s in the therapeutic range. Thanks.>> <<@OgOssman says : They reversed the air flow, so technically it is sucking air thru it, so vacuum??>> <<@m.streicher8286 says : They made the condenser out of plastic 😭😭😭>> <<@Lgwasherfan5623 says : Bro you gotta put the dryer on a cycle to have the Uv sterilization>> <<@81k3r says : the difference between space vacuum and vacuum vacuum is?>> <<@Mr_Hertz_Donut says : You should definitely do more videos like this one!!!!!>> <<@maasicas says : That thing is microscopic. Nothing fits in it anyway.>> <<@ryanroznowski2263 says : unless you have a matching washer that only washes 2 tee shirts, who has just 2 small things to dry at a time? you would have to run a puny dryer 12 times to dry one load of wet clothes>> <<@EleanorPeterson says : At 5:50 the Moron [whoops, typo: Morus] appears to be venting its extracted moist vapour backwards onto the 'control' T-shirts. 🤔 So the control T-shirts are having to lose a lot more moisture than those in the tumble dryer...>> <<@zinnium says : This is how you knew the dryer was a scam. All you needed to dry the clothes was the vacuum. second they said you needed heat; you knew it was fake.>> <<@livesofthefreemasons says : $600 on Amazon, to this day they're scamming people.>> <<@BeachesNGuns says : Broke it when all u needed was it flip it over 😂 15:05>> <<@HarrietJade-e4m says : Watching the heated plastic be cut by the scapulae was satisfying. I wish I knew why it becomes softer.>> <<@WJCTechyman says : Well, to sterilize the UV would have to be in the "UVC" classification, I would think and looking at UV water purification systems these things are long mercury vapour "fluorescent" style tubes inside a long slender pipe. The kind of thing that Big Clive has covered due to events that were held in Hong Kong in recent time(s). I don't think there are LEDs that produce UVC, but I could be wrong.>> <<@sasakalak4681 says : Thunderfoot skills as a handyman : BUSTED :D>> <<@TheStigma says : The plastic is usually ABS in outer shells of appliances like these, not PE. Mainly I think due to ABS being much easier to injection mold with high accuracy (PE warps and shrinks more while cooling) + you can get clean "polished" looking surfaces straight from the mold. The plastic condenser is actually not as stupid as it may initially seem. They are used in a lot of rotary dessicant dehumidifiers that are quite effective in condensing the water (from experience with several models). Metal would obviously give far better heat exchange, but at least in the dehumidifiers design I guess that this isn't a bottleneck and thus it's good enough anyway. Of course in those machines you have the dessicant rotor driving most of that function to feed really wet air into the condenser - which this doesn't seem to have. Because this just uses hot air and has no way to force the absorption or release of moisture that's probably why the condenser tray will be empty most of the time, unless maybe if the clothes are sopping wet.>> <<@kalef1234 says : Just what i want from a dryer: to fade and break down my clothes as they dry>> <<@BobBob-uv4vc says : Watching you try to take that apart was excruciating. I'm certainly not going to hire you to fix any of my appliances.>> <<@OlaftheGreat says : At least on the official website they stopped claiming it's a vacuum>> <<@arbitersofnexus4529 says : You're missing the point here this is the future this is one step to what's next just look at the old designs, sure does not perform as expected but it is a step in the right direction as far as but it is supposed to do 🤦 I wonder if they made them any better this is a year old?>> <<@veganbutcherhackepeter says : I noticed that the clothes on the line in that test were sitting right behind the air outlet of the 'super drier', meaning that they were basically sitting in 100% humidity saturated air, slowing the drying time down and giving the line a disadvantage. Otherwise the line would have performed better, no doubt. 😁>> <<@camptube7621 says : There are companies that invest millions into research and development. The fact people believe they have missed some technological miracle and believe a kickstarter has it all figured out, has always baffled me 😂>> <<@veronicagonzalez5937 says : I would like to see him actually upgrade the dryer to do what it claims than see how much more you would have to pay for it. Than restart the challenge with outside dying>> <<@soundtherapy4082 says : I use my Morus everyday and it works amazingly, love it!!>> <<@goneutt says : I think the shell might be the same as the litter robot I’ve been getting ads for.>> <<@josh6715 says : I have watched this channel long enough to know if it ends up here you know it's a scam>> <<@jamierose4088 says : It seems there are more scam inventions than legit inventions. That's got to be a horseman moment.>> <<@fazergazer says : Spock to McCoy about Gen. Trulane: “Interesting. Not fascinating, merely interesting”. 😂>> <<@ClownWhisper says : They played a trick with the wording infrared heating system well a heating element like in nichrome wire gives off infrared as it heats up to its glowing point so they can say infrared rather than just a metal wire heating up lol I have a really nice beam profiler around here for melles griot inc. I can't remember if they made it or they just gave it to me it might have been made by a different company like Spectra physics it's been a while since I've pulled it out of mothballs but I would love to go over this thing. It was mainly used for beam profiling for lasers but it also had a function to measure any light source and print out a profile>> <<@BrianS1981 says : I'm guessing the hot-gluing of the wires is part of their strategy to make it harder to fix by a repairperson.>> <<@gauloiseguy says : I would have figured they'd use a blue LED as it at least pushes out a minute amount of energy in the upper UV range. Ah well, the guy probably figured he might as well make it a total scam not even trying to put in a poor excuse. How is this legal? Advertisement wise. Edit: mystery solved later in the video.>> <<@whunderwhoiam2489 says : Shouldn’t you wear eye protection when prying stuff open… very scary>> <<@johnl5350 says : Why would that thing blow air into itself? Isn't it meant to be at low pressure inside there to lower the boiling point? Isn't that the idea of infrared lights being used, the low density air having poor heat capacity? Weird.>> <<@vahidoph says : now this is what I call an unboxing video.>> <<@SENATORPAIN1 says : god damn you made a mess of te morus thunderfeet>> <<@216trixie says : Thunderfoot busted! Tweet tweet tweet>> <<@Ferriston says : My only question is, can we operate this with an EnergyVault(TM)? Or the joule consumption of the heating elements is beyond its capacity?>> <<@johnweemhoff9965 says : Now the Federal Fraud judge will have exhibit A, Thunderf00t's experimental video debunking number one, there is questionable UV light sterilization, and number two the dryer is no faster than air drying at high capacity, and number three by inference that there is no vacuum drying as there's no condensation of water. This a complete and total fraud, and the company needs to give 100% of all money received back to all investors. QED Of course that's their out, because they're investors they're risking their money. On the other hand, Fraud is a crime.>> <<@benwiseman6504 says : You know, if they used a condenser to heat the clothes and condense the humidity, it could have at least done something interesting.>>
