my bet is 405nm as it has the smallest beam diameter thus higher power density...

LOL no thats a fake video... how it works is the top part of the flask is sealed off and a vacuum is created in the flask.. the lower the psi the less you have to heat the water to make it boil.. im guessing the water is pretty warm.. maybe around 70-80 C (100C boils water) and as the vacuum starts.. the water starts boiling.. just my thought...

Doesn't have to be warm at all. It'll boil just as easily at room temperature (≤22C).

well... any small wavelength would do it.. blue, violet, uv ......... gamma..

imo blu-violet (aka blu-ray) would work well

There's a reason they call it physics.. it governs everything we interact with in any way ever, the entire physical universe. The only way to truly understand anything in the universe is to gain a good understanding of physics. It's the mother of all sciences. Definitely my favorite.
And charcoal will be heated well by nearly any wavelength since it is black.

LOL I've been spending years punishing my brain so I couldn't understand the universe. I love mother nature, the world, and universe. I just cant get past the people LOL. It makes no sense how everything is balanced, but somehow people are always there screwing it up. I'm still trying to figure out if I'm living in a simulation or not.
