Pringles Cantenna

I consumed the remainder this evening whilst watching that Swedish mystery thingie Jordwotsit off ITV Encore.

Eat more! It'll be Christmas before you know it....

Coconut Oil is a superfood now so you will be fine

Being a sad sod, & having investigated the Pringles Cantenna obsessively over the last week, I bought a can of Pringles Tortilla flavour.

The damn things are addictive. How can something with no possible nutritional value be so moreish?

The object of the exercise was to determine whether or not the coating inside the Pringles can is conductive.

If it's conductive, the cantenna works as a waveguide, if it's not, then it works a different way.

Of course, it's not conductive, so I wasted £1.24 & got slightly fatter just to find out.

In other news, the inside of a Bird's Custard "tin" is conductive, and is a much better match with a diameter of 92mm to the wavelenth of 2.4GHz.

Experiments continue.

Maybe you could go a stage further, and use metallic spray-painted pringles themselves as mini antennae.

Yes.

But not all at once.

Or I'd have ended up with turds the colour of daffodils.

Paint cans also come in lots of different sizes. They'd do the job I bet.

It's worth mentioning that you shouldn't eat those all at once either, for the very same reason.

try experimenting with pot noodle pots, and baked bean tins. I always reckoned there was a weapon of mass destruction lurking there
maybe if you throw in a vacuum cleaner tube into the mix

And some man sized tissues and perhaps an old copy of Razzle.

Did you eat a whole tin of Bird's Custard?
