in the video he shows a way to do this using a CB radio what he does in the vid real or fake?

I haven't opened mine up, but it definitely has a countdown timer. This sounds like a likely application for a crystal. It also apparently has a microcontroller. For example, if I set it on the "7" toast position, it will run for 5 mins 30 secs if cold. If it is still hot, or warm, from a previous cycle, it will adjust the time downward accordingly. It is very good at predicting how long it needs to run to get the correct amount of toasting for a given setting, regardless of what temperature it starts at.why in the heck would they have crystals in toaster ovens?
Funny thing is that I have that EXACT cb radio he uses for the modification, a Realistic. I'm going to open mine up and see if at least the crystal is in the same place.
I can usually pick when something is fake or not, and when he cracks open his toaster, it certainly seems like he finds a crystal in it... Which is VERY bizarre... I would still bet a lot of money that I wouldn't find one in my fancy new toaster that I have.
But technically speaking, I don't see why replacing the crystal in the CB would NOT make it work in a higher frequency. Sure, the antenna would not be SWR in for optimum transmission power, but it would work well enough, I would have thought.
Still... All very juvenile, if you ask me. Don't they have anything better to do?

And that's the reason why i asked if its a hoax or not.That You Tube video is a hoax, just like 90% of all the junk you find on You Tube. Don't waste your time looking for a crystal in a Hair Dryer!
I can just imagine all the young teen boys who get suckered by these You Tube videos, hoping to do some amazing things with electrical devices. After they've taken apart all of their parents electronic divices, they will be in some major trouble!
It just sadly proves how many gullible (and uneducated) people there are in this world.
