Oh thank you very much!

Thanks for watching my experimenting with this induction heater.

Thanks Dale! As always nice to be back!

I hope you will be satisfied with the induction heater if you buy one. Thanks for watching.

Thank you very much!

Yeah it's great to have when you own a car that's 32 years old like mine. Thanks a lot.

Thank you very much. Yes this induction heater is really good in what it's doing and I don't think that you will be disappointed. if you buy one.

I agree it's a great tool.

Can you please give me information where to purchase the 110 volt unit

i bought the same unit 115v , works great

@@buckshot8393 Either eBay or Amazon carries them.

@@meTimetraveler does it automatically shut off every 2 minutes? I red you can only use it 2 minutes maximum at a time.

Yes it works really good.

Yes it's really cool. I have made some more coils, good to have when you need them. Thanks a lot.

@@tompas11A3n52KkX how have you found this tool 2 years down the line? Still working?

@@slickrick343 Yes it's still working.

Thank you very much. Really appreciated your subscription. 🙂

Ja detta verktyg funkar faktiskt väldigt bra och det kan ju praktiskt att slippa värma med öppen låga och vad detta kan medföra om man har otur.

Thank you! Much appreciated. You seems to have an interesting channel. I will look into your channel later. Once again thanks.

Nice that my video was helpful fot you and saved you some money too. Thanks for watching.

I just use a blow torch

@@jeeprenegade1985 That's another way.

Good for you.

@@tompas11A3n52KkX in the US that's normally a sarcastic comment 🙃

@@dubmob151 Oh I didn't know that. My comment wasn't meant to be sarcastic. I apologize if's perceived as such.

I knew it wasn't meant to be, it's just a figure of speech that was used sometimes, in response to someone bragging about something, to indicate you're not all that impressed. Or it can be complimentary, if delivered by a nice person. "you passed your exams- good for you!" Or said with a haughty sniff, as to say, whoop dee doo, that's no big deal, 😉

Thank you!

Please wait a minute, I'll go down to the basement and check. Ok back from the basement. The length is about 770 millimeters or roughly 31 inches. Hope that answers your question. Have a great day and thanks for watching.

You are welcome!

Thanks.

For smaller spur gears probably.

That's right, I'm Swedish. Glad you liked it. By the way you sounds lika a Dutchman ;-)

Tack Johan. Ja du har helt rätt det är fästet till främre röret på en 240. En bekant skulle lossa centrumskruven som håller drivaxeln i navet på en Skoda. Den satt så hårt att han drog sönder sitt ledhandtag som han förlängt med ett rör. Jag for dit med mitt ledhandtag och induktionsvärmaren. Nyckelvidden på skruven var 24 mm. Det krävdes två värmningar sedan gick det att lossa skruven på både vänster och höger sida. Det var den grövsta skruven jag värmt hittills och det gick ju bra. Den här induktionsvärmaren är inte att jämföra med en vattenkyld trefasvärmare, som jag jobbat med tidigare. Men den är ändå bra att ha till hands där värmning med gassvets inte är lämpligt.

@@tompas11A3n52KkX Tackar för snabbt svar :) Låter som den är good enough åt en hemmapulare som gärna slipper en massa extra arbete som en avdragen skruv kan innebära :)

Thanks. Hope you will be satisfied with yours as I am with mine.

I'm sorry I have no link to that tape. Long term durability, so far good.

Thank you!

Ja du Henrik om jag det visste. Jag fick tapen av en kund som jobbade på Metallverken i Västerås och detta var minst 25 år sedan. Det närmaste man kan komma är kanske kaptontape, som tål runt 250 grader. Men den tapen som jag fick och har är inte kaptontape utan någon annan sort.

Well M18 spanner width is 27mm. Depending on how much rust there is, you may have to heat several times.

Thousand thanks!

Oh thank you Virg that would come in handy. I don't have that type of tools but I get your point. Thanks for watching.

2mm copper wire.

No issues at all, still works as it should. I'm pleasantly surprised.

Thank you.

Yes and as I said in the video that was a little bit too tight. A 5mm gap all around is recommended.

I wonder if it might be good to have some Pyrex or ceramic cylinder to wrap the coil around for protection of the coil against damage, like the welding cups used in Tig torches. Then there's no abrasion or possibility of burning the insulation and causing a short in the coil.

@@dubmob151 Yes that's a good tip if you can find the suitable diameter for the job.

The unit works by eddy currents, not sound😂

No only magnetic metal such as iron.

Thanks. No only magnetic material.

@@tompas11A3n52KkX ok if i put the silver in Side steel ?

@@Faisal1979nasser I think you need more power than this can deliver to melt silver in a steel container.

@@tompas11A3n52KkX thank you so much 😊

Watch this ukposts.info/have/v-deo/nJimaWiOo6hiqJc.html Or look up "how to melt silver and gold at home"

Max wire diameter for the coils is 6 mm.

You are welcome.

No. An induction heater can only warm up magnetic material.

@@tompas11A3n52KkX Yes, good advice! I have seen similar tools being used for brazing copper, there must be some aspect I'm not comprehending.

@@tompas11A3n52KkX You can with non-ferrous metals, it just takes a chunk more power, IE: "The following summarizes conversion efficiencies for common base metals heated with induction heating: • Pure iron 95-98% • Medium carbon steel 85-90% • 316 stainless steel 45-50% • Aluminum 35-40% • Copper 5-15%." So you might need a ~5-10kw unit to have similar results with copper. If you look it up, it's how a lot of industrial processes are done (IE: welding tubes for HVAC applications/manufacturing).

@@porqpine5 OK but this item only puts out 1kW.

@@tompas11A3n52KkX Yeah, I suspect you'd really struggle to braze copper with this one. It'd be nice if you could of course, I know a few refrigeration repair techs who would love it.

Sorry to hear that. Probably an electronic component or the on switch that broke. If you had been my neighbor, maybe I could have fixed it for you.

From Banggood but now it's broken. I will try to repair this induction heater.

@@tompas11A3n52KkX thats not a good quality though and its so expensive. In wish it cost about 2700sek.

Well I can tell you that mine still works.

Ja hittills har den fungerat helt ok.

Don't know haven't tried that.

Buy one and loosen any rusty nuts and bolts you see and be happy the rest of your life.

I'm using 2mm (12 ga) my homemade ones. The heater came with 2,5mm (10 ga) but I didn' have that on hand.

The coil must not touch the object to be heated. A gap of 5mm is adequate.

@@tompas11A3n52KkX Thank you. That's very helpful.

@@seung-hojoo7705 You are welcome.

So why don't you buy one...

No only heat up metal until it glows.

I got it for free.

Yes it sure is.

You can heat those metals inside an iron crucible to a certain temperature but you can't melt them except lead.

Yes, you are absolutely right.

If you bend the coil you can get into pretty tight spaces but of course there is always a limit. Banggood price: 3800SEK. If I buy exactly the same tool here in Sweden the price is: 6000SEK.

@@tompas11A3n52KkX This guy built one that's 40% more powerful for about < $50. There's a link in his description. ukposts.info/have/v-deo/kX-Ql4-fjWyWqoE.html&ab_channel=Schematix. I'm thinking about building it, but I wanted a more powerful one for melting things.

@@karljay7473 Yeah I have seen that build. It's more powerfull but a little to big for heating up bolts and nuts in tight spaces I think. Don't you agree?

@@tompas11A3n52KkX Yes, it's bulky, but you could maybe scale it down, IDK electronics enough to know how to scale it down, but you could and save a lot of money. If it's $50 for that setup, then maybe 30~40 for a smaller one. The main point is that the ready made one is $250, this is $50, so you save a ton of money.

it only takes one broken bolt to justify the cost.

Thank you. What do you have to offer me?

​@@tompas11A3n52KkX I can provide best wholesale price with you if you have idea that sell this product in your country. Becuase we looking for some customers who have already used our products, instead of these trader in ebady, Amazonas... Can I contact by email?

In all of China?

OK I will do that the next time.😀

No need for the liquid wrench when you got the induction heater as your best friend.

In what way?

@@tompas11A3n52KkX wax is used for lubrication of the threads.

@@berniemac8413 Yes, but I think oil is better to use.

No that's not good. Mine is still working. If you know something about electronics maybe you can fix it.

Båda länkarna fungerar.

Good idea!

Brilliant

Oh... Im gonna give this a try. Thank you!

Just take it easy. 😉

Thanks. Mine is still working ok and I have been using it many times helping friends removing bolts. As you mention, it is important to keep an eye on the insulation of the coils.

Thank you for replying ,I really have been scared to buy one 👍😎

I meant to reply to my own question. I found it was rubbish for my needs and promptly sold it.

I can buy exactly the same made in China product in Sweden for 3500-4000SEK. I got this one for free. So why not make a review of it? It's up to the viewer to buy it or not. I'm not forcing anyone.

Not everyone is in America. There's a whole big world out there. The rest of us appreciate the review very much.

Ja denna är faktiskt rätt händig att ha till hands vid vissa situationer. 1700 spänn är ju ett kanonpris. Håller du på med bilar eller liknande där det mesta kan vara fastrostat så... Vad väntar du på?

@@tompas11A3n52KkX jag köpte på aliexpress för ca 2,5 år sedan , efter 1 år och endast 5 jobb gick den sönder, skrev till säljaren och han skickade en ny utan att jag behövde returna den trasiga, nu har även denna gått sönder , efter endast ca 5 jobb. jag hoppas det är nåt litet fel som hänt, det har inte luktat bränt utan bara stannat.

@@peterhogberg7287 Tråkigt med prylar som inte håller. Har du skruvat isär den för att se om det är dåliga lödningar eller liknande?

@@tompas11A3n52KkX jag ska göra det imorgon

@@peterhogberg7287 Skriv gärna om du upptäcker några fel.

Yes but not to small. You need about 5mm free space all around the object you need to heat up.

Nah I don't think that.
