Thank you for saving me from ruining all my parent's old soap operas.
-
Thank God I saw this video before I started experimenting with c.d.s!! Thanks Robert, you saved alot of people from wasting alot of time.
-
Got an idea: cover a parabolic dome with CDs, then have them focus on a tank containing water, then have the water evaporate and activate a turbine, there you go...solar power from CDs! 🙂

I do not think you will ever be able to stop misleading videos (I am being kind) but as long as people like yourself are pointing out the facts we will have a chance. Thank you. 👍🐝🌞

I clicked on this video because I was real excited to learn what I saw people doing a few years back. They powered their whole property on home made CD Solar panels. And they worked great. Bummer to see you just made this video to say they don’t.

Best use I have ever gotten out of old AOL CDs was to hang them in the trees around my garden to keep the birds out.
-
Thank you for making this video !! I saw one of these videos the other week and thought “there is no way that a CD can be used for solar like that”
-
I use old CDs for bird scaring devices, works a treat.
-
It is great to have this kind of video in this media where people would gladly believe something they saw once and not question the science behind why or why not it would work the way they are shown. Thank you for explaining to us.
-
we will all be watching your videos Robert you have a great community built up around your channels. thank you for all your hard work and putting this type of content out there. 👍👍

I went through the better part of the video hoping to hear something along the line of "But here is how you can harness the power of the sun using nothing more than common table salt, some copper pipe, and these 497 CDs"
-
It is truly amazing how well these "gag" videos actually work as a pay off.
-
Thankyou Robert, it's most elevating to hear the truth and to expose the scammers, there's so much lying junk on Youtube these days. Keep up the good work.

I remember one of the other videos argued that regular cds won't work. They said it required writable dvds because those contain silicon. The regular cds and DVDs that aren't purple, are plastic mass replicated products which are pressed, not burned. Silicon was argued to be the "game changer"
