Segment 1 (00:00 - 05:00)

It is time for another glorious unbagging of delightful tat. And one of the items that came was quite expensive and it's out of its bag because it was so suspicious when it arrived because they'd literally taken this big heavy battery tester or load test module and they had um basically just wrapped it in bubble wrap and stuffed it in a gray bag and jammed down the back of the current shunt here. The bit that senses the current was a little bag with a couple of plastic feet in its spare feet because well, one of them had completely sheared off underneath. That must be a standard thing. You'd think they'd maybe put it in a box or something like that to give it some protection, but apparently not. However, it seems to have survived. We shall take a look at that. We'll use it in later videos. Another bigger chunky item that arrived was this uh unusual bigger style mains voltage bipolar ionizer. This unit has uh it's designed for use in air conditioning units very much from the pandemic era and it has the two toughs of carbon fibers. One is charged at a negative voltage. positive voltage. And uh there's a strong air flow between them. Let me actually power this up. So it's now powered and drawing just under 04 watts. Yoying up and down a bit. And uh I don't know if you'll hear this. It's got a little flickery green indicator on it. If I hold this up to the camera, you're going to hear it. Don't know. I don't want to hold it too close because well, it's high voltage. And to give you a demonstration of how it's high voltage, well, let me grab the meter. So, with the meter, I can ground one of the leads. I'll leads and uh then hold it roughly in front of the negative emitter here. And it shows a significant negative voltage. Then there's a significant positive voltage once it's stabilized. Lower positive voltage though, I do notice. But it's most notable there's a strong airflow between these emitters here because they've got such a high charge between them. And if I actually hold these probes roughly about an inch apart between them, uh it shows 10 volts just flowing through the air. Quite interesting. That will be fun to explore. Although really I'd like to open it. And that's uh going to be made difficult by the fact is potted solidly in resin. Do I get any ozone off it? Yes. a whiff of ozone and all the other exotic chemicals. The power stabilized. It's still just under point4 watt with very good power factor which kind of hints that it's probably just a resistive limiter inside. Then a sideak pulsing a coil. Right, let me put this out the way. Interesting. They were being sold at considerable cost uh during the pandemic as curalls. Right, let's open this. This is a set of calipers. I can feel it's a set of calipers, but I got two sets of calipers. I actually got three sets of This one looks like the monster display one, but I'll find out when I actually take it out. Does it have the monster display? It does have the monster display. This will require uh a 2032 cell. H Let me just go and find that. Oh yeah, that's a much bigger display. Isn't that a lot better? But also note that it takes a 2032. Is it going to have better battery life than the other ones? Radio. I shall press this button to turn it off. I say turn it off. Many of these they don't actually turn off when you turn it off because they'll keep their last setting. In fact, you know, we can find that out. It just woke itself up. I turn it off. Uh, move position. Yeah, it just turns itself on. So, this thing is keeping track of a So, it is sort of staying awake. What's the other caliber? This should just be like the classic type. Show cuts open. No, it's also a huge display. Did I really buy two pairs of huge display calipers? Right, lovely. That means I probably have another one on the way because I wanted to do an experiment. But anyway, I a partner of two. This is good. I'll put this one next to the 3D printer where uh it's convenient. Are they identical? They're not identical, are they? They're completely different. What's the difference here? Um right. I mean, they look similarish. I shall cut this open. They have when they've bagged this up

Segment 2 (05:00 - 10:00)

they have uh bagged it to the shape of the caliper. It's only going to come out one end. Now I have to find another 2032 lithium cell. One moment praise. So the one with the smaller bezel, the slimmer bezel has a thicker, bolder, bigger display than the one with a big huge chunky bezel. Hm. Interesting. Any brands on these? Carbon fiber composites digital caliper. Okay. Right. Well, this one may remain through here. And this one can go through next to the printer. Excellent. Right. Onto the next item. I shall turn these off. They all have their buttons in different places. Internal construction looks different, too, just from the battery compartment. Right. Next item. Mystery item. Don't know what's in here. It's a mystery to me. It's a light bulb. An LED light bulb, but it's different from the normal ones. It's got a crystally cover, he said, immediately trying to remove the cover. It's glued on. Mhm. Okay. Weird pinky color going through that. Oh, it's a sort of like a prismatic effect. Interesting. Is that going to create a projected part? And I shall plug this in. We can try it out. And the power is 11. 5 W. And it does project a sort of Can you see that pattern being projected? That's quite interesting. I think they're treating this as a selling point. But I'm just going to look at the ceiling. Yeah, it does project around the room. Uh, but it does look quite visually appealing. It's got a fairly attractive appearance. Oh, I see how that goes in. That clips in. Hold on. We can go a little bit further then. Apparently, this is universal voltage. Whether we believe that or not is a debatable matter. Let me grab a screwdriver and just try and pop this cover off because I see it is just clipped in. This is probably a bad idea. Is this going to take ages? be one that when I take one clip out, uh, the other one immediately pops in? I think it is. Oh, it is because there's four. Oh, that that's uh promising, but also not promising. Oh, that's very promising. It's not going to do that thing it takes absolutely ages. So, what do we have here? We have a strange construction. A little electronic driver in there just stuffed down inside. And uh we've got a fairly stiff aluminum foil here. I say foil, it is it's not just a sort of film. is actually a very Where's the calipers? First use of the calipers. Let's uh measure that. It's. 5 mm thick. So, it's a half mm thick um aluminum plate that has been folded around. Then just the ends tucked in just for that 360° look. I'll just stuff the electronic back down the inside again, shall I? And then stuff this on here and then put the cover on, which apparently just holds everything in place. The cover is quite nice. Very crystally. Does it matter which way it goes in? Apparently not. It doesn't matter. Right, the bulb. I shall put that back in its box and put it out the way and we'll go on to the next mystery box. What is this? There's no identification what it is. Just shipping labels. Oh, he completely missed the actual tape line here. And it is. Oh, this one claims to be a real Philips bulb. We can put that to the test. It wasn't cheap by any stretch of the imagination. It does look as though it has the Philips packaging. Oh, it's tiny. That was really expensive. It's got a little metal heat sink at the bottom, but the rest of it looks suspiciously like the You know that when they wrap the metallic sticker around a core? Yeah, that's what they've done. It is just the uh not convinced if that's real Phillips or not. We can explore that later on. What a big box that was in for such a small bulb. Put this out the way and we'll go on to the next item. Let's start with the next automotive item or the first automotive item. This is a relay for flashing LED bulbs. And I tell you

Segment 3 (10:00 - 15:00)

what, it's super lightweight. What was that for? Is that just a packer to stop it getting crushed? It probably is. It's got a little adjustable potentiometer on the bottom of it there for adjusting the speed. Do I have anything I could connect it in series with right now that's convenient that has wires on it? That's uh I don't think I have. But you know what? Uh we'll take a we look inside and then we can assess if this is going to make an interesting video or not. So out it comes. There's not much on it. Is this have I've looked at one very similar to this. Is this not just the same thing? If it is, I can compare it to the one in my original video and we'll take a look. But it's going to be a little capacitor charging up and then the MOSFET that uh is powered from the capacitor once it reaches a trigger of this little transistor here. Uh that is worth exploring, but I got a horrible feeling that it is just the same one we looked at before. I'll put that back in. put it little rubber bung over it. Right, that can go out to the side. What's next? Something that I'm intrigued in. This one's bursting out its packet already. It is a digital tire pressure gauge. But I do wonder what the sensor is like in these. Zeroed off at zero PSI because there's nothing connected. Is it screwed together? It is screwed together. Is that just a battery compartment? Let's take the screws out and see what we can find. Um, just to save time, I shall pause. Well, no, I won't. I won't pause. I will just lay straight into it. Is this whole thing going to fall apart? Is this actually a battery compartment? Is this screw actually coming out? I think the whole thing's about to come apart. Maybe you're not supposed to change the battery in it. Oh, there it is. Right. Okay. So, we get a chance to look. They've got lots of supporting screws here around the uh pressure reader. Is this actually just No, it is screwed into the unit. I wondered if I was taking the screws out that hold the pressure transducer on. Where is my other screwdriver? That may be better for this. Get that handy rubber band out the way that often comes with packets when they're all just held together by a rubber band. by the postal service. What is this going to reveal? Actually, one of those screws is not supposed to come out. There's a little pressure transducer. Well, let's take that other screw out. It will never work again. This can reveal much. That is a tiny I'm going to try and get you up close to this. This should be close enough. It's a super microscopically tiny little pressure sensor there. Wonder what's in there. Is it a little load cell or is it a Is it something else? Is it the P electric distortion type that just detects the flexing of a disc? I'm not really sure. There's the grainy LCD display. Okay, back down we go. But before we go back down, here's what's in the rest of the circuit board. a dedicated chip that's doing everything. And there is a little capacitor over there, one there, and then a few capacitors here. That's it. And a button. That's amazing, isn't it? And then, of course, we've got the uh zebra strip connector for the LCD. Okay, back down to the bench. The magic of mass production. Isn't that incredible that they can make something like that so cheaply? On the same subject, we also have these convenient tire pressure monitors. So, this has been stapled back shut. Has it burst open during shipping or this looks like it's been open already? These things, you're supposed to screw them onto your shredder valves of your tires, and they've got these little flags that will indicate if uh roughly what the vehicle pressure is. And I guess they're just set to a specific pressure. 37 pounds a square inch perhaps or thereabouts. There must be an average pressure. I don't think they're going to detect a change. But the thing is when you screw this on, this little plunge in the middle is going to push the shredder valve in. It's going to remove one of the things that stops air leaking. So I'm not really sure how reliable these would be. Are they going to introduce air pressure loss? Not sure. I'm not even sure how the yellow bit is supposed to work. I can see this plastic. Oh, I can see the plastic as a yellow band at the end, but the green I'd guess is pushed out and it basically Oh, I see what it is. It looks like as the green slowly sinks

Segment 4 (15:00 - 20:00)

back, the pressure reduction the tire it Well, let me show you closer. it uh presumably then uh as it goes back it uh reveals first yellow and then it reveals the red to show that the pressure's dropped too low. Interesting. Let me know if you've tried these and what your thoughts were. Right, let's open something else. There is this thing. It's a tire tread gauge. I'll zoom back out again. The reason I got this is because someone mentioned that this is more accurate than the conventional uh gauges. It usually has the Oh, there's something. Oh, there's a battery in with it. It usually has a accuracy of instead of. 1 mm 01 mm. Let's stick a battery in and see what that shows. So, it's the LR44ish type battery. I'll stick that in. It is accurate down to hundth of a millimeter. And apparently the circuit board inside uh you push this down and it gives you an indication. I would guess actually you zero out there and then you push it down into say this ring here and it gives you the depth of your tire gauge and a great accuracy. But apparently the circuit board is the same as in many of the cheaper calipers. Oh, let's uh put that out the way. And you can swap them. Probably not this one though, but similar style of one. And when you do so, it means that instead of just being accurate to. 1 mm, it can be accurate to uh 01. I'm not sure that would work. I suppose there's one way to find out, and that's to find a compatible unit and then uh drop the circuit board into it. Interesting. Okay, I shall turn it off. Well, I say turn it off. It's not turned off. It stays on the background and runs its little LR44 battery flat as they always do. What's in here? A cardboard box. All right. Okay. 5 years battery life. Do we believe them? This I can think what it is. Oh, it's a lithium cell and it's supplied with it. Oh, that's tiny. And what do we see in here? We see a little inside the tip. temperature sensor. This is a heat alarm. There must be a little base for this. There's a little base and some screws. And it's a either a rate of rise detector or it may just detecting a specific threshold of a temperature increase. And once it gets to that, if this there's a sudden increase in temperature in your room, it will set the alarm off like a smoke detector, but ultimately less prone to false alarms. I could test this. Is this going to be really excruciatingly loud if I test this? Oh, there's a little test button there. Let's pull the tab out. Let's push the test button off camera. Nothing happened. Is the battery seated incorrectly? Maybe it's another of these fake smoke detectors. Is that going to work? It's not terribly loud. Right. So, what if I was to point my hot ear gun into this right now? My apologies if this is coming across as fairly loud, but let's uh pretend there's a huge thermal instant happening in the workshop. Oh, it works. That's good to know. Right. So, an interesting and very small little thing. Uh, that'll be interesting to explore the circuitry and see if it's anything fancy or if um, so I'm going to put this here. I'm going to zoom back out again and we'll see if the little red light blinks every so often. It probably has the low battery uh, alert. This is where it will blink, but I'll not be looking at it when it blinks. Right. I'll put this stuff out the way then. Including its little base. It's quite neat. Reminds me of the little tiny fire angel. Is it the little tiny smoke detector that also used a lithium battery? H. Anyway, I'll update in the description down below if it's got a little blinky light. This does mean I'm going to have to stare at it for about a minute or so just to see if the light blinks. Or maybe it only flashes when there's an alarm.

Segment 5 (20:00 - 25:00)

Next item. I'll tell you what. Let's take a look at Oh, this. This is a remote control receiver. H comes with instructions. That's nice, but loose. And this is like the little tiny boxy remote control receivers with the I was going to say with the terminals that, you know, aren't fully shielded, but these ones aren't shielded either. It's just the same sort of thing. Let's pop the lid. Where's my spudger? Is the lid going to pop easily? Yes, it is. It's going to pop. I can turn the soldering station off now. And I'll just tap it. Uh, what do we have? We have the incoming supply goes through a FUR rectifier smoothing capacitor. We've got the little Let me zoom down this. and then get a thing I can point with. And then we've got the little inductor that's used to uh act as a buck regulator. There's the power supply chip. That little three pin thing. Amazing little things. And then there is presumably what's that diode for? Not sure because there there's usually a couple of diodes. One might be for feedback. One probably is for feedback. One is the diverting the current through to this capacitor which is the bit that actually charges. Hard to say. Uh there's another little dive down there probably for the across the coil little transistor microcontroller uh RF receiver chip the usual thing. And I presume there is there's a little uh plunger button here that when you push it down it will click that button inside. So you don't have to do what you have to do with some modules and open them up and finger them about inside with all the live bits. Scary. Is that the way that goes on? That's on now. Right. Uh zooming out and we'll open another bag. Or will we bring in this little envelope now? Get the power supply on. It's a laser. Not the first time lasers have appeared in these unbaggings. This is a line projecting laser. Um, which one did I get? Uh, 325 volts. Not very expensive cuz lasers are dirt cheap. This is the type that if I connect this up, double check the voltage before I put the other lead on. It is at 5 volts. Put that on there. There's the line. And then, so it projects a just a straight line. And you can fine-tune that for focus to get your sharpest effect. These are very good. I've got one on my chopsaw and it's just right next to the blade pointing down. It's got a little holder and uh it just means it's aimed in such a way that you can see where the chop saw blade is just about going to touch that. It's a very good guide for cutting stuff or aligning things up. But it's very simple when you see it because it is just that uh I'll just turn it off before pointing at the camera. It is just that slightly rippled glass in the end there that creates that sort of like beam effect from the laser. H what happens if I just unscrew this completely? I don't think it will have much focus at all. I think it will just be a random beam. Oh, there's a spring. Lovely. This will just be a splash of light now, won't it? It's a big huge rectangular splash of light. Okay. Interesting. So this is the columnating lens. And uh is that purely the columnating lens as well? I think it is purely is this uh ribbed lens in here. Okay, lovely. I'll put that back in before I lose the spring or ping it across the room. I might even re uh align it up. Oh, that is pretty good actually. That's pretty good. That is aligned. I'll just point it across the room. You can't see this, but I can see a bright line projecting. I mean, it's not mega bright. It's not mega watts, but uh it's a sharp enough line to actually use for alignment. Yeah, that's very good. Okay. Right. Let me grab something else. It's another one for the automotive enthusiasts. I'm sure this will have diagnostic purposes, but I wonder if it's designed for show as well. Can't really demonstrate this. Can't even open it apparently. Let me get a pair of scissors and uh give it the proper message here. So, this little thing and I'll stay zoomed into this level. It won't. You sit this over a spark plug of

Segment 6 (25:00 - 30:00)

your motorbike or whatever. What's down inside there? Uh, it's got that little brass thing down there. So, you clip it over. It's got a little locking pin as well. So, you snap it over your uh spark plug. And what's under here? Is this going to come off? Is it glued? It might be glued. If it is glued, it's never going to work again. It probably will. That is just very tight. But inside, basically speaking, is a little neon bulb. Can you see that little neon bulb in there? And it's They did that annoying thing. They had green and blue versions, but they all clearly had the little clear bulb in them. So, it was a little orange glow inside, green and blue plastic, which isn't terribly good. But this could be used to show you if you've got a spark present on a spark plug. And it could also be used for decoration if it's just left in there. Very simple construction. And there is a little resistor. Is it limiting the curtain anyway? Not really sure. H interesting. The experts again can let me know that's the bag for the laser. I shall put the laser back in its bag. It's quite good to have it uh to know what it is in the first place. Right. What's in this bag? And I'll zoom out because it is a bit too close, is it not? Oh, this is another of those quack UVC bulbs, but it's not UVC. Uh, is it going to be the ice blue with phosphor or standard near ultraviolet? It looks like the near ultraviolet. Let me power that up. We'll see what color it is. So, it's 3 watts and it is that uh have I got anything around here that's fluorescent? Let me just grab something and show you. But the power of it is classic 2. 9 watt power factor for probably a capacitive dropper. Uh just a little probably live connections on the front of this. That's lovely. But I shall find something fluorescent. This should do it. It is effectively just ultraviolet. I mean, there's nothing wrong with that. I wish they wouldn't say UVC. I wish they'd just say it is the deep near UV ultraviolet type LEDs because that in its own right is quite handy. Oh, there's the power rating. Now it's not flickering. 2. 88 W. Okay, watch your eyes. It's about to get bright. Now, is this glued in? Let's find out if it's the standard capacitive dropper arrangement with just a capacitor tacked in the back of the circuit board. Is this going to be easy to get out without bursting LEDs off? That might be tricky. H I think this might be destructive because sometimes with these the circuit board is a friction fit and it doesn't come out that easily. H let me uh gouge in cautiously with a screwdriver and stab myself in the finger probably or break the circuit board which is also a possibility. Let me uh just pause a moment Charlie while I squeeze this in the vice of knowledge. Squeezing. Squeeze. I'm not hearing cracky noises as I was hoping there'd be cracky noises, but I'm not really hearing much. H. It's probably chewing the plastic up. It doesn't really matter. It was still light. Well, that's not liberated anything, has it? No knowledge has been revealed. Let's have another go with this. Uh, and then I'll just move on if I'm not really getting anywhere. And to be honest, I'm not getting anywhere, am I? No. It's so absolutely friction fit tight. That's quite annoying. I shall peer into the back. What I see in there, that's the way to do it. Okay. With a bright source of light. Can you see the dropper cap in there? Probably just tacked on the back of the circuit board. That's all we need to know. It is the classic little bulb. Okay. Watch your eyes. So for reference, this did light on 110 volts, but very dimly. So not really suitable for that. Although they probably do 110 volt versions. However, it's nice to know that even though they're selling these quackily as UVC germicidal lights, they are nice standard UVAish type lights. Well, near UV. So on the subject of quacky things, here's one of these that I just felt the urge to see if anything's changed. It is one of the fake car alarms. Usually terrible charging circuitry. And if you turn it on, uh, it will detect dusk. Oh, it's just

Segment 7 (30:00 - 35:00)

got one LED. I thought it was going to have two LEDs. Is it LEDs? Uh, let me just check this. Right. So, this is one of these fake vehicle deicers, fake car alarm, fake speed camera defeating devices. is it's just a little solar panel on top that theoretically charges the lithium cell inside and it's got usually one LED each end, but they've the end here just has no LED mounted. So that's all you're getting. A little flashing LED. I shall turn that back off. Watch out. It's about bright again. Sometimes I do wonder how many of these have been sold and if the circuitry is much different between them. I mean I suppose really that's going to be sealed, isn't it? going to be glued together partly to stop people getting into it and discover that it's fake. Is it going to pop apart? Is it? It might pop apart. It might just not pop apart. It's not waterproof anyway. Although some of them are sold as if you're supposed to mount them outside the vehicle. I'm just going to use brute force in this. It's what it deserves. Let's uh get it open. Circuit board. tiny little lithium cell. There's a nice solar panel. There's the LED. There's a little chip that's flashing it. I'm going to guess that this is a little solar lighting chip. Look at the size of that solar cell. And is there any charge control for it? No, there's not. They're just saying if it blows up, it blows up. It's too small to cause any damage. Well, that's what's inside your uh your vehicle automatic uh removal instrument for electromagnetic insulation and freeze snow. Okay, I'll just leave that sitting there flashing away. It appears to be not very sensitive to light cuz it's still flashing even the with the studio lighting. Maybe it just flashes all the time when it's on. Maybe it has no dusk sensing. Right. This is a It's 12 volt again. It's a heater wire. Let me tell you how much power this draws at different voltages. So, this is a silicone wire. All right. So, it's the double-ended silicone wire. Um, and I'm going to guess that this probably has the fiberglass string with the fine n chromi in uh heater wire resistance wire wrapped around it, but it's designed to wrap round things. Let me just uh get the power supply up to 12 volts here. And I'll tell you what current it draws. Incidentally, another power supply has just arrived. I'll show you in a moment. Right. So, that's about say 12 1/2 volts. And we'll stick this on here. Fiberglass uh cable. That's quite good. The power 700 milliamps. So, hold on. Let's uh get the kink calculator in. and we'll go uh 12. 5 vol uh times 722 amps equals 9 watt. So let's just say that typically it's going to be a 10 watt heater and it is warm as you'd expect. You could wrap it around things just to keep them basically just from getting just a bit too cold. It doesn't have to just be used for cars. A 12vt 1 amp power supply will be ambo for this. Now, what happens if I turn it down to 5 volts here? Oh, I can smell the heat is liberating the manufacturing chemicals. Or maybe it's just cuz I've taken out the packaging. So, there's 5 vol 300 milliamps. Uh, if we calculate that, uh, 5 vols times about. 3 1. 5 watts. It's not very high, but you know, it still has its uses if you just wanted to trace heating on USB, right? Okay, let me show you that power supply I was talking about earlier. Power supply. So new, it's a Hangal power supply. I don't know what sort of quality this is. Uh so new that it doesn't have the film taken off the front yet, and I've not even plugged it in yet. But it's got uh the coarse and fine uh voltage adjustment, coarse and fine current. It's got the output enable OCP overcurren protect. Not sure the function of that. It's got a USBC and USBA uh port in the front and on the back it's got a voltage selector switch a fan. Uh so this goes between 120 volt 250 volt and then it's got the IEC type socket on there. Um so this one is rated 60 volts at 5 amps. They do the same unit in 30 volts at 10 amps and 120 volts at 2. 5 amps. I think it's interesting. It'll be interesting to Can we look inside this? I can see inside ultimate. It's not very heavy. Uh that it is a switch mode supply. Two switch mode supplies I'm seeing in here. One

Segment 8 (35:00 - 40:00)

for the main output and one for controlling all the circuitry, powering the circuitry as these things usually do. Right. Let me see if there's any other little things we can take a look at. As happens with the bundle deals, as soon as you show an interest in automotive stuff, h it decides to throw lots of automotive things at you. So, there were some interesting bulbs. These ones appear to have phosphor based red bulbs. And these ones may actually be animated. So, let's uh the power supply is on set to 12 volts. I'll put the negative onto here. I warn in advance just in case these strobe because I do not know what uh what these are going to do. So they may strobe that. Oh, it chases. That's useful. That's totally compliant. That's not going to get you pulled over, is it? And what about the other connection? Oh, right. It's little burst of strobing. Righty. So that's what that one does. Interesting. Uh all soldered together. So a bit hard to see what's inside, but that's not going to stop us, is it? Uh, so I'll put those in there. I've got other bulbs here that were chosen because they looked distinctive. So, let's open this bag. And this one is hard to open. That's what it is. It's one of those horrible little catches that is difficult to open, but it's open now. Some of these are available with just one contact the back and some of them are the brake lamps available with two. This one has two connections. That's quite novel. It's odd the shape inside. That's why I got it. It's sort of almost like I don't know. Um right. Tell you what, I'm going to make sure I'm still I think I'm still focused. So, we'll put this on here and put this on here. Strobe alert just in case it does strobe. That's kind of white. And that's so that's uh 95 milliamps and this one is 146 milliamps. So it is it's doing this sort of brake light type thing at different intensities. That's interesting to know. Although it is a white light being filtered out to red cold white as well which isn't you know the best. Next. What did I buy? things I buy and I'm not sure what they are. All right, this is a filament one. Is it going to do the same thing with the power ratings? These are so friction fit. It's got the two connections. It's got two little cobs sat up there. Did I not take one of these apart? Well, this one has a coil in it. It's got a little buck regulator. So, how are they doing the voltage? uh detecting the different intensities? Unless it's a dedicated circuit just for vehicle lights. I warn advance just in case the strobes I don't know if it's strobes. It is lit at 55 milliamps and down here much brighter 150 milliamp. So very similar to that other one but just with the Cobb filament arrays. Interesting. Now how are for time? I think we'll do just one more item. Maybe a few more items. There is one other bulb to test here. And also these, the main thing that intrigued me about these, I do like the anodization effect. These are designed as a secondary, the secondary seal for your shraider valves and your tires that they have the little seal inside them. What's inside them? Oh, it's a little silicone type red siliconey type seal. And the idea is that if you've got a leaky shredder valve, you can put one of these on just for visual appearance, but it also helps reduce the amount of uh air escaping from one's tires. Right here is a light bulb. Then we'll bring in the power supply, USB power supply. So, is this going to have rotating effects? Once again, I don't know what this is going to do. So, I'll warn you just in case it's going to strobe. It's strobing, right? And this one. Oh, it's rotating round and round in clusters. I mean, that's all right, isn't it? It's quite nice. Uh, not sure it'd be totally 100% vehicle compliant, but it would look quite interesting in your lights. Certainly for uh unofficial type events. Okay, the last item is nothing to do with cars whatsoever. I mean, obviously you could if you wanted, but it's not really intended for that. You know, the little sunset lights with the dicroic filter. Uh this is one that's just made really small and when you plug it in it just depending on the angle view you view it from it casts different colors. Let me show you that. So that is the effect we get here. It's quite nice actually. It just creates

that sort of color shift as it projects. And if I point this at the wall now I'm just going to point at the wall. It puts out a really wide splash of light. Okay in a dark room not so great in a semi-lit room. But, you know, as a nightlight, it might actually be quite acceptable. Okay, it's about to get bright again. Then we'll take this apart. So, before I do take it apart, it's drawing 257 milliamps. That's quite a lot. That's approaching a 1 watt dissipation from the actual uh LED itself. It's in a plastic housing. There's not going to be much heat dissipation there. Let's see if we can get this spudger down here. If it's separable, am I going to have to use unreasonable force? Is this been glued in or just super tightly clipped? Oh, this is not necessarily going to come out that easy. Right, I'll just pause momentarily while I destroy it. It just went crunch. This is usually a good sign from our perspective because it means that the seal has been broken. And there's your little lens, which is plastic with the dicroic film on the back, just placed in. And there's the LED with absolutely no proper heat sinking onto the case by the look of it. So, let's pop that out. And it's just a little aluminum core, no proper heat sinking with some resistors, and then the LED. So, they are just going to be baking this thing. It's going to get quite hot in there. But then they don't care about longevity of these things, do they? But that's what's inside it. So there we go. That was a worthy unbagging of largely vehicular tat uh and interesting things like these nice calipers. The this one definitely the one with the smaller bezel definitely wins for in terms of uh in terms of the readability. It's just got that slight edge for the size there. Uh I should actually zoom out before I do stuff like that. But there we have it. Um, a worthy unbagging indeed. As always, I'll provide links to these items down below in case you want them. You know, just a molecular deicer for your vehicle. But the nice things I think in here, where are those calipers and the power supply unit and the little pressure tester? Wonder how accurate that is. The little tire tester. Such a minimalist circuit inside. Very impressive.
