DIY LED Levitron | How to make a magnetic levitating spinning top from scratch | Science explained

Max Imagination - 2020-12-21

Hey, everyone! In this video, you get to see how I made the LED Levitron levitating spinning top, you get to hear my scientific explanation behind how it levitates and what keeps it levitating in place, and of course, you get to see the cool thing hovering!
I spent a few months working on this project on and off, getting the levitating spinning top itself to be perfectly balanced and reducing the weight was the hardest part of perfecting the LED levitron, so in the end, it turned out pretty stable and I finally succeeded with my creation, I'm really glad to be able to share this project with you guys!
If you are thinking of making an LED Levitron like mine, then please go watch my first Levitron video before making this version, good luck if you also make it!

Hey everyone! The comment section has finally been re-enabled over the whole channel after 2 years by YouTube themselves who shut it down in the first place. Glad to be in touch with my viewers again! :)

Hi! Love your video! Just want to ask: does the spinner's top magnet size matter? Can I use smaller size magnet (like 20mm diameter)? Or is it the larger the better? Thanks!

Max Imagination - 2022-04-05

Hi, thanks for your comment! The top size does matter as it depends on being suspended above that donut shaped magnet below, so its diameter should not exceed the inner hole diameter of the base magnet. 20mm should work, with enough fine tuning.

Cheers,
Max

How much time it can leviate or fly

Max Imagination - 2021-07-01

Mine levitates up to 30-60 seconds (also mentioned in video)

TECHNICAL A.S.K 2.1M Subscriber - 2021-07-01

@Max Imagination can you make forever levitating device

Max Imagination - 2021-07-01

It's possible, but would most likely require electricity to keep levitating

Oke good..

Hi , my magnetic top is not levitating, cant find its sweet spot , please help

realistic art - 2022-05-09

@Max Imagination yes the hole is attracting and the flat surface of ring magnet is repelling , I added 4 magnets , no luck yet

Max Imagination - 2022-05-09

@realistic art Hi. For me to help you further, please explain to me what's going on when you attempt to get the top levitating. Does it bounce off and repel suddenly? Does it just fall straight to the base after it takes off?
