Not sure how I feel about this


I know how I feel about it. It came to me as I was watching bits and pieces of it and the smell of bullshit started wafting out of my speakers. 1300 watts? Yeah......OK. For one thing he calls it RMS and PEP power when any tech should know there is no such thing as RMS power regardless of who says otherwise. RMS voltage times RMS current equals AVERAGE power. Ask a REAL tech or electrician. Small point maybe but indicative of a bigger issue.
 
So what's wrong with squeezing 325 watts out of a 100 watt Chinees transistor? Quite frankly, I don't believe it and suspect some meter tampering. The power he is showing would be very difficult to obtain from genuine Toshiba's on 18 volts, let alone China junk on 15 volts. It makes me wonder what the VSWR is into a resonant load... Not to mention at 15 volts, he's about 0.5 volts away from destroying the audio chip.

I like how he goes through the trouble to make a label that says Root Mean Square on his meter
If your going to be stupid, let's just make sure the world sees it lol.
Just run an amp behind it and be done.
A fool and his money.......

God help us.... There is so much bullshittery present in this display of insanity I need a shower. Folks when even a little mud duck like me can see it, you in trouble brutha. I predict an enormously large meltdown.

Maybe that’s the idea for an epic video still to come.

Well, after his remaining fingers heal from using a rotary power mower to trim the hedges.

Little brother ain’t around after that unfortunate nighttime stunt with lawn darts, so also have to learn vid camera settings

i don't know about anyone else but i've come to appreciate the ability of the pa sections in the transmitters that i own and use to withstand a 20:1 mismatch without faults resulting in $$$$ of unnecessary repairs by merely observing and conforming to the manufacturers operating specifications for the particular transistor devices in use.
