Playing with some IR

fair enough. My guess came from after reading that comment.

Nope! It was actually a piece of bread that I microwaved, ha. I'm going to give it to whoever said toast though. No idea what the reward is yet

sourdough?

Nile Red

Nope! Close though

Nile Red

I've decided that I'll give a winner on Patron as well as YouTube. Also, it isn't toast, but just a regular piece of bread. I feel like the difference is impossible to really guess though. So... Now to determine what the reward is

Grilled cheese?

Hmm that is an interesting question. I actually have no idea of any IR chemoluminescent reactions. Or of any that fluoresce primarily in IR. I am honestly not the most knowledgeable in that area though. If I were able to get my hands on a good high speed camera, I would be so excited!

Are there any non-exothermic/room temperature reactions that produce chemo-luminescence in the IR band ? Or compounds that fluoresce in the IR band ? "Cody's lab" did the water/acid thing. Hot/cold fluid mixing was interesting but not that informative, fluid dynamics is great with high speed video too.

Nile Red

You are close but I can't say how. :P

I'm trying to think of ways to pack beakers so they are safe to ship. Lab coats wouod be ideal though because they are obviously not fragile. Also for the guess...nope!

Nile Red

Nope

Nile Red

That's a good idea! I'll keep that in mind. I'll be getting the beakers within the next 1-2 months

Nile Red

Yup

Very cool and entertaining. Thanks for the video! I am guessing burnt toast?

Another great video - particularly the acid / water issues. You can clearly see the dangers. Yep - I'd be interested in some merch, and a lab coat is a great idea... or anything else that'd be light and non-fragile to transport to the UK!..... I think treyton is on the right lines, but it's an empty microwave TV dinner container, after you've served it up!... Keep up the good work.

It is a meal that you burnt.

Do we only get one guess?
