Every second of this video is information. No time wasted, straight to the point
-
How anyone invented this is mind boggling. The genius it took to design such a part that we take for granted every day.
-
The animations really help to understand what is going on.
-
It's amazing, the solenoid not only engages and disengages the gear, but also is a timing mechanism AND a relay, all in one, great design
-
A starter motor and solenoid is an ingenious combination that beats the hell out of cranking a Ford model A by hand. About time they came up with a solution.

I understood completely in 4 minutes what I failed to to understand fully in 4 years of auto school. Thank you!π
-
This has gotta be the best instructional educational video Iβve ever seen. The monotone voice allows for the viewer to be kinda pulled into the video to learn much more easier.
-
This channel is brilliant. Fantastic animations, loads of information, and great explanations. Thank you so much!

Old starters (before the mid 80s) did not have the planetary gear set depicted in this video and were therefore much larger and heavier and therefore used more power to crank the engine which if the battery was even a little low, it would have difficulty.
-
I like how the video is so short and full of loads the same time.
-
All your vids give the best explanation you can find on yt

Hi techno mechanic, I really appreciate your videos,it's very clear and concise, I suggest you also make a video about "cause and there effects" on a motorcycle engine, I thought its also interesting to see that in animation, maybe this also helps your channel too

video is very good, but to be really, really perfect, the helicoidal spline is also there because the motor starts to spin before the pinion engages with the flywheel, so the helicoidal spline couteracts this initial rotation to have better mesh of the gears. The early start of the motor is to have it start with little to no load and then add the load later (we're talking about milliseconds later) to reduce the current spike and prevent damage to the whole electrical system.

I canβt believe humans sat down and invented all of this insaneeee.
-
Great as always. I think you should start another channel on how to make animations.
-
A class for only 4 minutes and can go home with full knowledge.
-
First video for me on this channel. It was more than I expected. This type of video should be shown to high school students to introduce them to mechanics and the lingo it uses
-
Best 3 minute video ever
-
Straight forward and easy to understand π
-
Animations and narration are excellent
