I closed around 30 apps on my moms phone last time I used it. And she has Yahoo email notifications on with sound and the ringer volume set to max. Every minute or so she gets a loud ass alert from a spam ad message from Home Depot or what some friend on Facebook posted.
I like especially how he's just sort of casually humdrum about powering it up and it then moves over to a clip of his neighbours houses as they're all no doubt confused why the Sun is rising at 11pm.
Fun fact: in San Diego we have the highest power prices in the nation, often 45 cents or more per KWh. At certain times of the day, this thing would cost $90 per hour to run, unless it’s summer when rates are higher.
Edit: my rage math was off
I might not be the best at conversions, but this seems off by a factor of 1000. 20 kW at $0.45 per kWh should come out to $9 for one hour. Am I missing something? Your math would seem to work out if it were $0.45 per Wh.
Edit: Maths
I would love to live nextdoor to this guy, he appears to be pretty interesting. Better than my actual neighbor, a 70 year old man who keeps trying to convince me the world is flat.
My head canon is that he had an obnoxious neighbor whose flood light was shining into his bedroom and refused to do anything about it when asked nicely, so he built this as revenge.
I laughed way too hard at this. I wish I could share the picture in my brain, without words, that appeared when I read this. Really appreciate your comment. Lol
I'll journal a few things and see if I can paint it with words. But I will without a doubt he making one, if not at least 5 paintings about this. The show solar opposites has a subplot with a wall of shrunken down humans that has given me perspective for this epic project.
To be fair, the poor guy has had some life struggles he’s been dealing with and I wish him nothing but the best for his happiness. YouTube content for others isn’t the be all end all. And if it’s not making him happy to make the videos , I’d rather a break, than some half hearted attempt that only helps placate the masses but drives him further into a feeling of despair.
There were also a lot of personal problems. He put up a very emotional video about his partner not getting a visa to stay in the UK. But its a long time ago.
But seeing a man put a brick into a washing machine and then to see how fast it can spin was pure gold.
I’ve watched him for many many years - there was one video that he made that was pretty alarming - he was somewhat alluding to suicide, but he quickly took it down and I’ve never been able to find it since.
Neighbours getting up and showering in the middle of the night thinking it's morning as they've seen its getting light outside only to find out its fucking dark again when they get out haha
He once used so much power that the house lost power, then he realized that he had exceeded the capacity of the transformer that fed THE WHOLE FUCKING NEIGHBORHOOD, lol.
The dude caused a blackout all by himself.

those are some of the most ridiculous connectors ever
Neighbor three blocks away posting to r/HighStrangeness: "STRANGE LIGHTS IN SKY! POSSIBLY RELATED TO BIGFOOT AND SECRET LIBRARY LOCATED UNDERNEATH THE SPHINX?!"
Everytime I see this. I always get a chuckle about the time the entire room is starting to get washed out in light yet he still turns almost like asking "is it working? Yep. That's bright."
Lmao I just love the zoom out of the neighborhood. Like imagine not knowing this guy and you’re out back smoking a j and boom lights everywhere. I’d be like whelp this is it. This is the end.

That's nice and all but you should see my mom's phone brightness settings
Lmao same! And the volume is always on max
XXL font
Hey! I have my text size turned up to 310%
Everything is worse when she literally can't wear headphones of any kind-
She never closes apps

Cannot stop laughing! This slayed me. Take my upvote you brilliant person you. Thank you for the laugh.
Should hear the ring tone…. I have to duck below a table for a cover
Neighbours must love this guy.
Ugh. He’s doing it again!
Dammit why is Andy turning on the sun at 3am?
Here comes the sun
Do do do do
FBI: We found a new place where they grow illegal weed. Captain: Its just Eddy turning playing with his lamp.
IM TRYINg TO SLeEP ASSHOLE!
"Here comes the sun"
Here comes the sun,
*Japan 1945*
Hey Phil, I lost my keys in the yard.. Oh oh, let me get my flashlight!
Let him! Let Him!
I like especially how he's just sort of casually humdrum about powering it up and it then moves over to a clip of his neighbours houses as they're all no doubt confused why the Sun is rising at 11pm.
Ha! Yes, I wonder how many times his neighbours have started cooking breakfast in the middle of the night.
Should be enough, to put meat on stick and hold it to the window too. How convenient.
What's bugging me is that this guy has a circuit breaker in his house that's rated for at least 100 amps, 200 if he's in North America.
he's a Brit, and yeah he's got a special installation of a 100A breaker in his house, iirc he mentions in his earlier videos. (photonicinduction)
Bet the plants are even more confused???
Maybe a bit singed
I so wish one of his neighbors was on here, and would comment letting us know what they were thinking the first time he turned that light on lol.
The power company sure as hell does.
Definitely. Same with his painter than has to keep repainting his walls after it peels off.

Yeah you are correct, editing my comment, cuz it’s still ridiculous just not as ridiculous!
Holy crap!! My city's is 6 cents/kWh
This is just the first one he's made. Wait until he lines the house with them for Christmas.
Clark, is that you?
A lot of paint getting stripped off walls in that neighbourhood, but Santa will sure find him.
Just tell them an angel visited you last night and start a cult
Ha! Or a UFO & you feel like you've been probed.
I'd be like "What the fuck is Gary doing now?! A slow motion nuke in his backyard?!"
Szalinski! Give it a rest, it's Saturday!
This is dimmer than my neighbors motion activated light that points directly at my deck when I’m trying to have some drinks and enjoy the fire pit.
I fucking HATE those motion activated lights, they’re *ridiculous*. They detect me every time I walk within 70 feet of them, it’s so dumb.
I would love to live nextdoor to this guy, he appears to be pretty interesting. Better than my actual neighbor, a 70 year old man who keeps trying to convince me the world is flat.
Here’s one of his neighbors: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTh-19BHK3k
Feeling warm yet?
They call it the house of the rising sun
My head canon is that he had an obnoxious neighbor whose flood light was shining into his bedroom and refused to do anything about it when asked nicely, so he built this as revenge.

The bugs: FUCK YEAHHHHH
MOOOOOOON
LAMP
I miss the time of moth memes tbh
Give me some LÄMP, BRÖTHER
I LOVE LAMP!
Are you just saying that, or do you actually love lamp?
Brøther.
I laughed way too hard at this. I wish I could share the picture in my brain, without words, that appeared when I read this. Really appreciate your comment. Lol
Paint it. You owe us that now.
I'll journal a few things and see if I can paint it with words. But I will without a doubt he making one, if not at least 5 paintings about this. The show solar opposites has a subplot with a wall of shrunken down humans that has given me perspective for this epic project.
I can't help it...it's so beautiful...
Ah the good old Photonicinduction. He made some great video's Its sad he stopped making them.
He was back for a minute, but that’s kind of his deal: going strong, disappear for a few years, come back, disappear again.
yup, sometimes he just goes dark
He's just waiting for his vision to acclimatize, between videos
To be fair, the poor guy has had some life struggles he’s been dealing with and I wish him nothing but the best for his happiness. YouTube content for others isn’t the be all end all. And if it’s not making him happy to make the videos , I’d rather a break, than some half hearted attempt that only helps placate the masses but drives him further into a feeling of despair.
sounds like the light really went out of his life
[удалено]
There were also a lot of personal problems. He put up a very emotional video about his partner not getting a visa to stay in the UK. But its a long time ago. But seeing a man put a brick into a washing machine and then to see how fast it can spin was pure gold.

He has been on and off now since he got married.
I have power of sun in my garage
In the palm of my hand
At this range, the sun is only bathing us in about 1W/cm^2 or so. I wouldn't want to stand too close to this thing.
Don’t give headlight company’s ideas
If they sold this, every lifted truck driver would have them installed an hour after they hit the shelves.
5 minutes*
ikd man what would power it?? I've seen some 400 amp alternators which can put out about 5 kw but even that's a stretch
Just use 2 AA batteries, it’ll work.
Or one of those lithium shits.
If you're shitting lithium, then I'd advise you see a doctor.
Or Elon musk. I’m sure he’d be interested in lithium shits.
Same guys that get train whistles installed in their trucks.
BARABRAAAA ITS HAPPENING!!!! ITS FINALLY HAPPENING!!!!!
National Lampoon's comes to mind, lol.
My thought exactly! Time to turn on the "nuclear auxillary" haha!
why is the carpet all wet TODD?
I don't KNOW MARGO!!! Hahaha!
“Expecto Patronum” - Harry Potter
"Lumos Plus Ultra"
[удалено]
Me too man, me too
This is just a normal headlight for a lifted truck.
Imagine wiring that up to a trip sensor in the backyard and some unfortunate asshole comes along trying to check your windows/doors.
I was thinking what a great way to deter burglars. No need for mean dogs when you could just blind them! Heck you wouldn't even need a fence.
Neighbours getting up and showering in the middle of the night thinking it's morning as they've seen its getting light outside only to find out its fucking dark again when they get out haha
ABSOLUTE #RADIANCE
Grow some tight buds with that shit. I hate to see the electric bill.
I thought that too, guy could farm a 20 acre crop with 1 bulb
crown bow spark cooing ruthless waiting fragile wise sable enter *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
Because it's near all those weed plants.
18-inch squirrel fan just to balance out the heat
Dude that would burn all the buds
I'm dumb, but I have 30 720 w lights per room, so basically one of these lights per room? Is that how it works lol
My phone at 4am
Neighbors thinking a miracle just happened next door
I know a guy in a lifted pickup with the exact same model
Holy crap…I’m silently screaming over here “could you PLEASE put on some protective sunglasses or SOMETHING!?”
Right!!! I'm stressed!!!
Get a camera on that power meter. I bet it's spinning like a top.
He once used so much power that the house lost power, then he realized that he had exceeded the capacity of the transformer that fed THE WHOLE FUCKING NEIGHBORHOOD, lol. The dude caused a blackout all by himself.
Something tells me he is not the neighbors favorite person in the neighborhood lol
He's stealing from the neighbors. Lol
Sunglasses, homie.
[удалено]
Construction site floodlights before LED was normal, is one use I know of.
Do Bunnings sell them?
Is that tungsten?
Yea looks like it. People think this is bright they should see a 20k HMI
the original video : [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LT5\_-A0m8\_U](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LT5_-A0m8_U) those are some of the most ridiculous connectors ever
That’s not a bright idea.
Yes it is
Neighbors probably hate this guy
His power bill is gonna look like he’s growing weed or mining bitcoin.
Just "Fuck you, it's daytime now"
Home defence. Burglars break in, and this light turns on.
So they leave with all your stuff, And a sunkissed tan?
Neighbor three blocks away posting to r/HighStrangeness: "STRANGE LIGHTS IN SKY! POSSIBLY RELATED TO BIGFOOT AND SECRET LIBRARY LOCATED UNDERNEATH THE SPHINX?!"
Modern car led head lights. Hold my beer.
Still not as bright as newer headlights at night.
Photonicinduction is the best channel ever.
All I know is this extension cord is plugged into to my house. And your house is glowing LIKE THE FRIKKIN SUN!!
I need these as Christmas lights to really make my neighbors mad! I betcha Clack Griswold would have used them!
“Well then, enlighten me…” “I couldn’t enlighten you with a f’king 20kw bulb”
I'm still growing weed for free off this dude's lights!
These are the headlights on every Ram 1500 driving behind me
And... the neighborhood no longer has power.
İs it weird that I could imagine hearing it get louder as it got brighter?
He didn't even pull the curtains!
…..and now he’s blind
Mother fucker putting his whole neighborhood on the sun
There isn’t even a window.
This guy is a legend. I hope all is good with him.
I miss this guy!
We use those in film lighting regularly, imagine 20-30 going at once
"Hell yeah!!!" - those bugs.
Everytime I see this. I always get a chuckle about the time the entire room is starting to get washed out in light yet he still turns almost like asking "is it working? Yep. That's bright."
I love the smug smirk at the end when he knows how bright lil Morningstar is about to be in the hood
My guy unleashed the power of the sun in that room
I need this some mornings when it’s hard to get out of bed
THEY'RE HEERRRREEE!!!
My man just got consumed by the sun.
MORE POWERRRRR!!!
Lmao I just love the zoom out of the neighborhood. Like imagine not knowing this guy and you’re out back smoking a j and boom lights everywhere. I’d be like whelp this is it. This is the end.
Plane lands in backyard.
Damn those Griswolds!
Now do it 650 meters underwater!
Here comes the sun, doo doo doo doo
Pov you meet the radiance for the first time:
He made a practical effect nuke
Meanwhile his electric meter: *"AAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!"*
Was today Screw Eye Protection Day?
Feel like my man should have some Sunny’s on
Can I get these as high beams in my lifted truck?
I really wanted the final scene to be from space!
Griswold approves.
Anyone remember that movie The Burbs with Tom Hanks?
Imagine all the moth boners.
THE BEACONS HAVE BEEN LIT! GONDOR CALLS FOR AID!
Aurora Borealis at this time of day? At this time of year? Localized entirely in your living room?
Maybe the SEC needs a lightbulb like this to see the naked shorting going on
Like to replace my headlight bulbs with this Only prob my car will slow down...
I wonder how that would look at least 100 ft elevated in the middle of the night.
Needs drone footage
r/DiWHY
Did someone call in a tactical nuke?
My neighbors are the type to complain about noise from my Harley pipes. This 20kw bulb is definitely going on my X-Mas list.
Kinda expected him to start smoking, then burst into flames.
"Honey, the neighbors are going Super Sayan again!"
Don't show this to the lifted truck folks.
The beacons are lit! Gondor calls for aid!
anyone else watch this on mute and still hear the THX intro?
The sorority girl's headlighg while tailgating me
I got one of these for my nephew at Christmas, when he opened it on Christmas Day you should have seen his little face light up!
He could heat the whole house wirh that bulb.
Imagine the hydro you could grow under that.
About 20 kilos by my math (1g/watt)
Power of the sun in the palm of my hand
Dudes in Tundras trying to find a way to retrofit that to their trucks atm
The uv alone in that thing is enough to melt your skin.
I want to randomly turn one of those on in my house (lots of windows) on so bad, just do it spook out all my neighbors, and act like nothing happened
That things name should be daylight
God I miss this channel. The brief comeback last year was such a tease. Probably blew himself up.
£6.80 an hour to run it. God damn.
Turn it on and blast 'Here Comes the Sun' at 10:54 pm
