PLEASE REPLICATE THIS !!!

*EDIT ADD*

Gyula i posted this before i read your message above, i was doing stuff while writing the post.

*/EDIT ADD*

Can't use the tapping idea, it's a pound of wire and it's not exactly wound like a so-called Tesla coil so the early windings are well-covered by the later ones and not accessible

And i just blew a rectifier so off to the shop.

I've followed TK's suggestion and stuck a HUGE heat sink on the transistor.

I've also stuck a diode back on the collector and atached a battery to charge.

So it's now a standard Bedini setup but with a DC PSU instead of a primary battery.

It's charging up the battery incredibly quickly, a couple of minutes per 100th of a volt, i'm used to 15-20 minutes per 100th of a volt with a normal Bedini setup using ceramic magnets.

I'll be impressed if the battery holds it's voltage ever again as it was a dud i was sent that just woudln't hold charge. Right now it's just somewhere to dump the charge instead of the transistor.

Right, i'm off to get a rectifier.


Thanks,

Gary.

@Gyula

Yes i did have a puffer cap and did th meaurements with it attached but it's a 35uF 450v.

I'll grab a cap of your specs as well as the rectifier.


Thanks,

Gary.

Well, I meant the 1000-2200uF value puffer capacitor to use when you already reduced the big coil output voltage to nearly the 22-23V rectified and loaded value,  otherwise it would cost a fortune to get a 1000uF 350V cap... and no real need for then.  Maybe a 100-220uF 350V or 450V cap would be justified to use.
So the problem still is your output voltage is too high...   what if if you look for a cylinder i.e. drum shaped plastic container in the kitchenwares and you would wind the turns from your present wire holder onto this new "bobin" so that you could make taps in the winding process?  I know it would be a tiresome job for sure...  You could make two U shaped holders for the old and the new bobins, with a shaft across them for insuring rotation... etc

Hi Gyula,

iv'e made a little wooden coiler that i can attach my drill to in order to turn so it's not that much of a job.

Unfortunately my girlfriend is asking me to 'get your bloody head out of that computer' so i can't see it happening tonight.

I managed to get a rectifier and a few more resistors plus two voltage regulators.

Women getting in the way of free energy - i should do a Tesla and become celibut ;+}

Will get back on it tomorrow, also my new analogue meter arrived


Thanks,

Gary.

See what i bloody mean :

This happens every year over here ...
