Homemade induction heater is a win!

Managed this rig up a homemade induction heater from a 10$ board off amazon +7$ cigarette plug terminal cable

Induction heater is for my dynavap, the commercial ones are quite expensive and I figured it would be a cheap and easy project to make one up

I made a quick YouTube video showing the IH off :)

Jesus, stoner engineering really stepped up it's game.
- Pepperidge Farm remembers when clever was an apple and a lighter.
  
  Half of us would die trying to use that, but glory to glorzo if it works for ye but not for me.
  
  I pretty much only buy single apples when I am planning to use them as a pipe. That is the best way to smoke a bowl. And if you're not a scaredy cat, it becomes a baked apple treat when you're done.
- looks at traditional stoner equipment "We have the technology... We can rebuild them. Make them hit faster, stronger, cleaner."
This post was a journey for me scrolling by.

How powerful is the board? i've always wanted to melt metal with an induction coil.
- The board is rated for up to 12v10a so 120 watts. Its able to heat up the dynavap to combusting temps in about 10 seconds so I wouldn't doubt its able to melt thin wire in short order. For my purposes it's actually almost too powerful so either need to lower the turns in coil or add a potentiometer on to the circuit
  
  Or get a housing for the unit and a glass slide for the inside of the coil. By the time you do that it will be pretty dialed in. Source: I’ve built a few
- Works on small things like a small nail but larger things just get really damn hot
