Author Topic: Newman Motor Coils; one continuous wire or two coils in series ? Difference?  (Read 3976 times)

Hi, I'm about to build my first Newman motor ( the common configuration, as most often seen on YouTube, i.e. vertical PVC pipe with upper and lower coils, horizontal shaft etc.) and have a question about the magnetic wire for the top and bottom coils. Is it important/critical that the wire be one continuous, unbroken/unjoined wire from top coil thru to bottom coil? For convenience I want to be able to remove the top section ( pipe and upper coil ) for assembly, disassembly and experimentation. Does it make a significant difference if two separate coils, wired in series are used rather than the two coils using one continuous wire? Thanks for any help/advice.

It doesn't make a difference.

In my approach, I use ribbon cable and I connect the wires in series. I've had at most 120 conductors in the same coil. There is no major problem of having more than one conductor.

Thank you very much for your response to my question. I have seen some of your Youtube videos and respect the experimentation you have been doing. Thanks for your sharing.
