everyone watch this non conductive fluid video!

i been into watercooling for years now and heard lots of fights vs spending the money on TRUE non conductive fluid vs distilled water etc...

click the link below and in the bottom of the page click the video and watch this!!!!!!!!

I will take an LED fan and place it in a container and pour distilled water over it and film it while it continues to run if you'll send me $20 per quart of water :D

That's not an adequate test. Seriously. Take a cheap fan you do not care about and plug it in and dunk it into a bucket and I betcha $5 it will keep running.

It's a brushless DC motor and the windings are sealed with shellac

Interesting but motor windings are typically insulated with varnish so there is a good chance you could do the same successfully with plain water. I would like to see them try that with a booted mobo and then I will be convinced.

edit: you had to beat me by 2min didn't you? :rolleyes: :D

hmm did not know that about the fans.but anyway the colors are really what im after,i want a green that really has a nice glow and theres look good.as far as the non conductive part,guess we will never know?:eek:

all there products-im grabing the green

IF you want to see a real test watch the vid from PrimoChill where they pour a quart of PC Ice over a live rig in an acrylic tray while running 3DMark06 :D

I'll see if I can find the link.

@Ian I type sooooo slow it must have been a right alignment of the stars...

That is the worst anti conductivity test I have ever seen. I used to play around with 5 - 12 volt electric motors and over 90% of teh ones Ive messed with don;t care at all when you dunk them in water they keep going no problems.

An Elictric motor will only stop if its easier for teh electricity to flow through teh liqueid from the -ve to +ve connections than it is for it to flow through the copper coils in the motor. Now copper is ALOT more conductive than water so teh motors nearly always keep going without a hicup.

man was I to slow :s


But yep it will keep going

100% Distilled water neither.

CD, you looking for this?

yeah, that's with oil. We all know oil is not conductive. What we like to see is a rig that has water that is "non-conductive" and is booted up and see if it'll fry.

That was amazing!
30 liters of vegetable oil.
And, I would have a deep fryer in my office. Fries on demand!

By the way, it was coolermiester who did that impromptu fan testing, not SWC.

I know the video your talking about CD. That was a good bit more impressive than this hack job of a test (no disrespect to Coolermiester). FrozenCPU has it but it seems to be corrupted, maybe when they switched over to the new interface. It seems Primochill is trying to forget they made that video as it's no longer up on their site or of their other site (Moddersmart). The only other reference I could find besides FCPU was @ Gruntville which had a dead link to the video as it pointed to Voyeurmods (now Moddersmart).

That "test" doesnt say anything. If you drop a hair dryer in normal water it will keep on going. It will only break if theres some sensitive electronics like on a motherboard. They should have flooded the entire computer in that stuff and see if it can run for a few hours, like people have done with oil.

I remember a few years back, Toms Hardware did a test where they were running a PC submerged in vegetable oil. They also did a few trial runs where the system was filled with distilled water. It was also a high end rig at the time.

I would be interested in seeing that video when you find it. :D

ROFL... you never saw this video of Promochill?

Here is the video for you guys who never saw it.
http://www.frozencpu.com/images/movi...ceelectric.wmv

Promochill owns feser one because i think they have much better and prettier colors.


Also distilled WONT CONDUCT. So why are you trying to convince people to get a premix coolant? Ive had water shoot out of my radiator, and splash on my board and PSU. And Not fry anything.

Infact most if not all vets of h2o cooling on this forum has leaked once in there h2o builds, and nothing bad happened as long as you used distilled h2o.

*sigh* not that Feser video again....

Anyway, I just couldn't help myself... here's my response to that (3.9MB, QuickTime):

...and now I'm all out of drinking water, low on pink lemonade, and it makes me sad ;)

(I tend to get bored easily around this time of the year, incase you can't tell...)

railmeat i would of pm u but i ant see the option to, are you a member of cl2 in yahoo as i was in there before and seen someone in there and they posted there pc pictures and it was of your rig

pm me back cause i wont find this thread again and i dont want to hi jack it thanks
