LM317T Voltage Regulator with Pass Transistor

It's my lucky day because my neighbor is throwing away a microwave! One man's trash is another man's treasure, and with all the parts I can harvest off this abandoned appliance, I feel like I just won the lottery! www.thekingofrandom.com Music by Kevin Macleod (Down Home Rockin) http Project inspired by: MattsAwesomeStuff www.youtube.com WARNING: This project is extremely dangerous and should not be attempted without adult supervision and adequate training. Misuse, or careless use, of tools or projects may result in severe electric shock, serious injury, death, and/or permanent damage to equipment and property. The pink high voltage insulator on the magnetron is made with beryllium oxide, and is a hazardous material. Regular inhalation of the dust can lead to lung diseases similar to those caused by asbestos. Do not break it. Use of this video content is at your own risk. I'm super excited about these salvaged parts, because there are a ton of dangerous projects I can use these for. Like unballasted high voltage electrical arcing, or instantly fatal traveling arcs. How about improvised spot welding, or dangerously exciting metal melting, and even makeshift AC stick welders? I feel like I made out like a bandit on this project, and these salvaged components will lay the foundation for many projects to come.

In this video you can view the work of a voltage regulable power supply from 20 to 0 V. I used components from an old TV and another electric machines.

Today we discharge 5.5kV 50uf into film capacitors, electrolytics, resistors, LEDs, surge protectors, 7805 regulator, power transistor, and a LED array from a dead flashlight. Nothing survives this kind of overload. The capacitors go off with quite a bang, they rip apart. The red LEDs disintegrate so quickly that there is nothing to show in slow motion. A small ferrite inductor had the coil blown clean off it with no harm to the core.
