brownsville:

Good for you for not giving up. Way to go! Not knowing any better, I would say that the place to check the power consumption on your circuit, is to put you test leads in the circuit (series) at the point it goes to the coil. Please don't quote me on this but, I do believe the part about the meter being "in the circuit" is correct. It feels good once you get something spinning does it not? Good job!

Bill, It certainly does feel good. The wife was really giving me a hard time about the time and money, etc...

I took the 200 foot spool of 30 guage and since there was a portion of the core hanging below the drive coil I put the coil on top and inserted the extra core. I checked the voltage and was getting a steady 0.1 volts.

Thanks for the advice on the probe placement.

I had gotten 10 of the snake mags and have tried most of them. Each one spins up differently. I also found that the small lid is much harder to get the mag up and spinning.

BTW I am using the Lidmotor coil.

@ Brownsville.Glad to hear you got it going and can join in the fun.Nice video,some strange camera angles but nice just the same.I would stay clear of glass though.
I know what you mean about the snake eggs having different spin characteristics but you want to have both a verical spinner and a good X spinner so you can do different things.
Keep us posted on your experiments as i see you have done a few interesting things already.

@jonnydavro,

I got a second magnet to stan d up and spin. I held a lid about 3 feet away from the coil and spinning magnet and about 2 feet higher than the top of the spinning magnet. No iron core - tried a bolt but it didn't seem to make any difference. It was very unsteady (me) and it only spun in an upright position for 10 or 15 seconds but I think this is the same type of effect that Jon Depew shows in a recent video posted.

Going to make a stand and give it another try soon.

@Brownsville.WOW! If you have got another one spinning as you say,you have made a major discovery.Please can you make a video if you get it going again so we can all see how you did it.Many thanks for your continuing experiments regards jonnydavro

Yes, I agree. If this can be replicated with, as brownsville said, using stands of some kind, there may be a way to have several magnets spinning. Put a few pick-up coils on each spinner and.....who knows? This could get even more interesting very quickly.

@all - this was posted on the Energetic Forum - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8Gt3ED0zLw&feature=channel_page

I had experimented with Mr. DePew"s Equilibrius Grid but did not have the bearings that he used. I think this can be replicated and with an already "powered" up spinner it should be a lot easier.

Have a big construction project to work on for the next few days but will try to get this accomplished and a video up by Sunday.

@Pirate88179 - Hey Bill here is one for you, I haven't gotten my jt rebuilt yet, but this looks like the same thing jonnydavro has done but a different twist on the magnets.

This looks llike a much simpler way to get the mags spinning and cylinder mags in a top type setup should work.

Brownsville:

Thank you. That is pretty cool how he did that. It is evident that we have a lot of options here. Take care.

Hi.Today i got a new laser tachometer to try and find out how fast the snake egg is spinning.I was using 7.5v(5x1.5v batteries) for the test and the vertical spinning egg.I found that the egg would go over 17000rpm at this voltage and 15mA.I chose this voltage as i can stabilise the egg a lot easier than when at 12v but 12v is a lot faster for sure.Here is a pic of it doing 16800rpm.

Jonny:

Man, that is a nice tach. Holy Crap! 17,000 rpm is really turning! That is a lot faster than I would have guessed. This is good information to have.

Hi.Today i did an experiment to see how economical this motor is and it will run quite happily on a 1.5v watch battery at 4mA.Here is a vid.

sweet!
i just found some of these 'snake eggs' at harbor freight, 2 for a buck, i'll be spinning soon.

what's the 9 volt in the vid clip for?

jonnydavro · « **Reply #73 on:** May 01, 2009, 01:24:03 PM »

Hi Wilby.The 9v battery is the charge battery.Im glad your going to join in the fun.I would get quite a few magnets at that price to ensure you get a nice choice of magnets to use as they each seem to have there own personality.Some spin vertical,some spin angular,you want both types to test.Regards jonnydavro

WilbyInebriated · « **Reply #74 on:** May 01, 2009, 04:12:43 PM »

thanks jonny. i'll grab a few more next time i'm out there.
here is the link for the magnets, i was reading through the thread to get caught up and noticed pirate was having trouble locating some.

my bad, they were 3 bucks, you get two snake eggs and two spheres.
