Bob Davis score a ended power supply including a 5 KV transformer , 100 uf Capacitor and a contactor on eBay for $ 100 and did what any sane individual would do — he progress a can crusher .
The first test was caught on tape , and despite issues with a broken measure , the gimmick managed to crush the hell out of that soda can . In fact , it was so powerful that the index transformer short out and the semiconductor diode was “ blown to bits ” . Interesting , but not quite as manfully as it could be . I ’m waiting to see someone build a crusher that bang up a can prostrate on a dummy ’s skull . [ Bob DavisviaGadget Lab ]
