    The Engineering Mindset is the only channel of which i listen through the sponsored section just out of respect for him, great job!
  • @marbbridges
    I took apart and wound Transformers for 40 years and new the fundamentals. But I never learned how things worked out in these formulas. This was very informative. There was hardly a Transformer that I can take apart and not put back together. I did it a lot, but never had time to learn the aspects of it. And again I like your video oh, you're never too old to learn. When I wired houses back in my day, my boss told me there's only two things electricity can do. They can either work for you, or it can kill you. This is always stuck with me all these years.
  • Of all the electrical engineering videos I have come across, yours are truly the best! The diagrams, pacing, and real-world examples makes learning and remembering so much easier, thank you!
  • I am a mechanic I have read many books that briefly explain induction. They leave me hanging saying the primary windings induce a voltage in the secondary windings … the end. You did a very excellent job at explaining how this happens . You really answered many of my questions thank you so much.
  • @JBrodo
    Your videos are just unmatched in quality. Watched a ton of them, always amazed at this each time!
  • It's scary how effective your videos are at teaching things dude, i have a lot of respect for you just for that.
  • @dwayne7356
    After working 35 years in a power plant, I never actually knew why transformers hummed. I always thought it was because they didn't know the words.
  • @ar_min_m
    There was so much more information included in this video than what I came here for, AND IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!! thoroughly explained all those details with patience and love. and icing on the top was the Beer example which helped big time. Loved it. Thank you for such a thorough explanation :)
  • @inventorkr1
    A detailed explanation of the electrical transformer. Greetings to you💙💙💙💙💙
  • I have 3 degrees in electronics and electrical engineering , your blog is so wonderful and explanatory. Your lecture on English and European voltage and power being different from American power, was the very best I've ever had . Thanks kindly and good luck .
  • @RiverBottom22
    I personally appreciate the beer glass analogy. It is a simple visual aid for a somewhat complex topic. I would have appreciated it had my instructor used it back when I was in school. Love your content.
  • @oldskoolordie
    I studied electronics and the explanations on your channel are the best I've ever seen on every subject. Found the power triangle and power factor a little tricky to understand but the beer analogy is great.
  • @ChuckThree
    This is a transformer… and there’s more to it than meets the eyes…
  • @user-yl1vw8pb2k
    I am utterly impressed by the exceptional quality of your electrical engineering videos! It's not an exaggeration to say that your content stands head and shoulders above the rest. The meticulously crafted diagrams are a visual delight, making intricate concepts appear effortlessly clear. Your pacing is a masterclass in itself – it's neither too hurried nor too slow, allowing me to grasp every detail without feeling overwhelmed. What truly sets your videos apart is the ingenious use of real-world examples. These relatable scenarios not only demystify complex theories but also ensure that the knowledge sticks in my mind like never before. Your dedication to providing such insightful and practical content is genuinely commendable.
  • @qadar2524
    That was helpful 😊 Transformer ratio K= (n1/n2)=(v1/v2)=(i2/i1) where V1 : voltage at the primary side V2 : Voltage at secondary side N1 : number of turns at the primary side N2 : number of turns at secondary side i1 : current at the primary side i2 : current at secondary side
  • @rugbyf0rlife
    "America is/does/uses X, the rest of the world uses Y" is one of the most common phrases in science and technology. The US just likes being awkward.
  • @YANA4123
    Thanks you for the clear concise videos
  • @AG-ld2qt
    Really excellent video. Answered a lot of questions I have always wondered about.
  • @XAWoke
    Quite an amazing job. The most toughest task is to make others understand and this piece has achieved it exceptionally well...👏
