The science involved in this unit is extraordinary. A lot of development and fine tuning must have been involved to create the correct flow and meniscus generation to create the continuous stream of tiny bubbles without any liquid getting down into the air blower section. I've just realised that the unit has a closed liquid loop, so it is actually using negative pressure to pull excess liquid back down to the reservoir.
I really don't recommend taking these to bits, as there are a lot of parts that go together in a very specific way. It's one of the most frustrating rebuilds I've done after a teardown video. (I normally rebuild the things I take apart.) On a plus note there was no glue involved in the construction at all.
This unit came from ASDA in the UK, which tends to stock similar stuff to Walmart.

    For the best flaming bubbles, I recommend diesel in the fluid holder and an injector for wiffle gas into the star housing. Good luck.

    Lol. Toys are actually for adults. 🍻

    "Silicone tubing" may be a better description.

    Silicon hose = silicon hoe's
    Quite funny 😜🤣

    Wonder where it was made, being able to take something like this apart is quite rare

    We are never to old for Buble launcher

    I'm surprised your neighbors let you anywhere near their beloved Disney bubble blower… I wondered if maybe they don't your channel? LOL… Clive you set that expectation up beautifully that it was going to be destructively torn to bits and quite possibly modified to pump out exploding bubbles with throwing flames… yes, that would definitely not be kid friendly 🔥🤣

    Mechanically, this looks a lot like a small engine carburetor. Small amount of fuel in a reservoir, air inlet, and a discharge tube to allow unaspirated fuel to return to the tank. Practical adaptation for a technology that is quickly becoming obsolete as we move away from using dino juices to power small gardening and personal scooting appliances – much better to use it to entertain kids of any age with bubbles.

    This is shockingly cool, and I'm glad you were able to get it back together again. Now we just need the 3D printing nerds to figure out how to make more, bigger bubbles. 😁👍

    What happens in -20°C? Do the bubbles freeze up? Then it would be handy tool making ice structures. Also you could add extra insulation layer to houses.

    What? No LED hack?
    Nice analysis!

  10. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars ROB THE WIZ says:

    Probably totally environment unfriendly

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mat Billings says:

    Mr Clive are you on a certain watch forum? Just askin! 😇😅

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars durr clips says:

    This entire analysis is WRONG.

    Actually how the bubble wand works is…. magic! The hints that it's a wand. The moving parts is just to throw you off

    HHaha i would love to see one of these, but it does bluetooth smart attacks on a shake xD

    Woofle wand!!
