Magnetron powered flood light! « on: May 29, 2020, 11:29:57 AM » Author: RadxD461
I saw this video by bigstackDcasting where he tore apart a floodlight and melted it down. In the process of tearing down the flood light he pulled out a magnetron. So is there a flood light that is powered by a magnetron? Here's the link of the video.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxqE0QvImw0

That guy went though a whole lot of work for only a small amount of money ! :poof: 22lbs of aluminum is only worth about $10 at .45ยข per pound .  He could have probably sold the light for more than he got in scrap .

He would have been better off to clean up the light and sell it as--a light!!!Would have been much LESS work!
