@Oc,

I tried you link but got the following message:

I have seen all the videos from TK. He is doing a good job researching the motor. Sometimes I
can detect surprises in his voice also. :-) Wouldn't be surprised if he finds some anomalies in
the motor.

Thanks for taking time to contribute to this thread.

Alex.

Luc,

I think the effect has to do with magnetic shielding. So any toroid should work. I'm using
a Iron powder toroid on one of my motors and the motor spins. The reason I used Ferrite
was that was what I had at hand. I'm reasonable sure it will work with laminated soft steel also.
I have tried this before in my MEG using regular coils and it did not work. It did not produce
the high voltage in my generator coils. I was using Metglass core in the (Tom Bearden) MEG
that I did build but could not find any great output after a lot of testing. The toroid system is
different because of the magnetic shielding effect. You get an modulating magnetic field going
in the center core. This will generate a lot of voltage in the generator coil. But it is early in
the research. We need to test much more to see if we can get an ou effect.

I have ordered more enameled copper wire and some new Ferrite U cores, I beams and some toroids.
Will be building the double system posted earlier in this thread when the new parts arrive.
I must add that I have not yet tried any resonance tests on this new system. But if you decide
to build this then I bet you are better to test for resonance than me because you have worked
on this for a long time now. I'm just a novice when it comes to resonance circuits.

Alex.

Oc,

Thanks for the added information about the Orbo motor system.

In this thread we are trying to make a solid state version. So some of your points will not apply.
But good information anyway. One factor for the solid state will be the frequency. Higher frequency
will give out more power. This is compatible to RPM in a rotor, I guess. One other factor in a solid
state system is resonance in the input toroid cores. This will lower the input usage to almost
nothing while at the same time switch the magnetic field on and off in the generator coil.

So there is a lot to research.

Alex.

EXACTLY!  Those two items alone, and the addition of the increased flux from double sets of magnets and added steel, might just do the job... 

Cheers,

Bruce

@Staffman,

Today I tried to measure the inductive kick back voltage spike.
I set the o-scope to 5 Volt/Div and used the probe at X10.
So each Div. on the vertical on o-scope is 50 Volt. The inductive
voltage spikes was above the o-scope edge. The setting on
the switch was NOT at maximum. I can go even higher.

So the inductive kick back voltage spike is > 50 *10 = 500 Volt. I estimate
closer to 1000 Volt or more when the switch is at maximum setting.
This is the reason that I'm using a 1500 Volt transistor.

Alex.

@Staffman,

It will probably survive. It depends on several factors. One is
you input voltage. Two are the toroid coils. Three is how much
power you put into your toroid. So if you don't push the RA
switch to maximum then you should be safe. Your transistor
is rated 900 volt so you can push a lot of power into the
toroid before the transistor blows up.

Alex.

Chet,

I think there is a direct relationship between the high voltage
spikes and the high voltage output in my generator coil. If I
clamp the coils with a diode then all the output voltage is gone.

Do I dare to remove the diode over the collector and emitter to
see what big negative spikes will do with the output? :-)

Alex.

Hi Alex,

Last night I lay in bed thinking of this device we are working on and I thought of a easy test that would POSSIBLY allow us to use the other side of the toroid to produce additional power.  When you first see my picture, before you dismiss it, there should be enough of an oscillation of the flux on that side to produce something.  Even if it is a little, an additional generator coil could be placed on the backsides of all toroid.  Anything produced is "FREE" because the toroid doesn't know it is there and the back side is only being used as a gate anyway...    Of course, it may produce nothing, but I think it will produce something though not much!  Just place a coil over the two magnets and place on the toroid.  Add one additional magnet, opposite polarity as you have already deduced on the far side of the coil.  pulse and see what you see.

Cheers,

Bruce
