Easy Way To Weld Steel With 1,5V Battery That Not Many People Know

MULTIPLE FAILS: 1) This is not welding, it's soldering. 2) 9:30 It's not a 1.5V battery, it clearly says 36V. 3) Like Mama said, "USE YOUR WORDS" instead of PORN MUSIC.

I would caution anyone attempting this to wear googles, and have good ventilation, don't breath fumes, and do not use on galvanized pipe, it's interaction with the Zink galvanizing, creates a poisonous gas, witch can make you very sick, Zinc poisoning. Welding is fun, can save you money, but when heating metals, and other materials to extreme temperatures, you can create deadly fumes. Always learn what your dealing with before doing.

As has been said many times already, this is soldering not welding. Not even sure it's comes up to the class of brazing, that would depend on the material that makes up the undisclosed filler. It's not brazing until you get to about 450 C, so depending on the melting point of that filler would determine the process. Also you are not using a 1.5V battery to do anything other than provide a stick of carbon to create a carbon arc. That arc can be created with any low impedance power source, such as the Li-Ion battery shown... Or, heaven forbid, a welding transformer. You could even jury-rig it with and old toroidal transformer from a busted amplifier and a few turns of 6 gauge wire added.

Pretty sure I saw this on an episode of McGuyver back in the 80's! Damn, I'm old...

Very creative. 36v not 1.5v A dedicated Mini spot welder from Ali Express is much cheaper than a new makita 5AH battery!

I like the beating test at the end xD

that's brazing not welding. welding is using heat penetrate the material and fuse it. brazing is sort of using hot material to glue it together sort of like soldering.

What a mess! That's not a repair. That's a complete fu*k up! Instead of all that unnecessary work, why not just use flux, solder and a simple heat source you can control - like a hand held gas jet cooker lighter, FFS. 🤷‍♂️

Klasse, danke für diesen Beitrag ! ! ! !

The fumes from the acid are very dangerous

. First, you're NOT welding, you're making a fire bomb. Second, you're soldering which is a different bonding process altogether. It's just as good IF you can keep your feet off the repair. Third, that 20 volt drill battery contains lithium ion rechargeable cells. That carbon rod probably only has 1/2 to 1 ohm of resistance in it. Surely not enough to keep those lithium cells from quickly overheating from the dead short that you are causing and catching the lithium metal anode in each cell on fire to burn violently like a flare. Fourth, If you don't know this, then you probably don't know that you do NOT put a lithium fire out with WATER as water reacts with lithium to produce VERY flammable / explosive hydrogen gas and only makes the fire burn hotter. This is why people who do NOT know what they're doing should NEVER abuse lithium batteries as you are doing here. This is also why a fire department will stand back and watch an $82,000 Tesla automobile burn for 24 hours and only try to keep the fire from spreading. This is also why you won't see a carbon arc soldering setup on the market powered by lithium ion drill batteries.

TIG brazing spot weld uh,,, kind of deal ? Good for getting unstuck from a pinch without any welding equipment I guess. In place is in place ! :)

OKAY, great hack - what did you do in a quick review please.

Because I have been trying to figure out what to do with that random bottle of hydrochloric acid that I have in my junk drawer.

What is the material of the wire held on by the pliers doing welding? Tin/Lead?

Love the wire strippers ;-)

LIAR You use 36V, not 1,5 V

Nice idea. Although your title is misleading. People thought that you would be using a 1.5 v battery to power up your device. What you did was simply make a rod out of carbon rod from a 1.5v cell that would be melted when contacted in metals.

I think that's solder. The liquid is Hydrochloric acid. It makes the surface where the solder will bond to the metal. You just need heat to flow solder, which that DC arc Pokey thingy makes plenty of. Great job on this. I dont know how many times something broke loose and needed this idea.TY Be safe

the batteries NEED to be alkaline batteries to have the graphene
