Done.
let me tal_ to mommy (about the dog) 🙂
Add me to the list for a Massachusetts viewer. I enjoy your accent and great humor. We here are known for dropping our Rs in Massachusetts. I get comments on it when on vacation from people not used to it. I'm sure you get that as well. Thanks for the show. It's a Bobbby dazzler!
That knife.
And the fact that an Aussie is holding it is even better.
Buy me a new set of ribs.
Wait, since when are Australian accents not funny?
Edit: Canadian here.
I had that happen to my iPhone when I put it on charge right before it died lol
Gotta love that near-field RF….
The Vacum Tube needs 170V to Realy work.
That is the Rockwell symbol on the Rapidman.
Bung one of the 2.5GHz detectors in the microwave 😀
Re the irish accent: I work at an autistic school so every Aussie accent I hear to me is the Wiggles… the kids love it.
Such a cute little boy. They grow up so fast. Great Video Dave!
Sorry, forgot to mention. 2400 can go 100mA with 200V range, just press range up on it 😉
Those IN-9's are soviet made stuff 🙂 I have few too, did same stuff, used 2400 to power IN-9 😀 It glowing depends on voltage level. First need breakdown (its usually about 100-150V) voltage to start and arc, and then you reduce current/voltage to get level 🙂
hahahaahhaa dave I think you need to get a new phone ahahha
I cracked up at that part of the video and still laughing ahhaahah
I used to go to school in Boston. People from Massachusetts are called Massholes.

Sagen is awsome!
As for the voltage tester that said "static electricity and other stray sources of energy can randomly trigger" bla bla bla…The same goes for the Fluke. I have one of those Fluke's with dual sensitivity like the cheap one featured here, and rubbing it in your hair will set it off. That's an easy way to test if it's working or not.
I'm in massachusetts!
Your son is so awesome. You gotta involve him in more mailbags.
I also had that happen on my Nexus 4, it happened to me when using a charger that didn't have a big enough amp output. I found anything lower than 1amp caused it.
Nexus 4 masterrace Dave 🙂
