Need EE to figure out Professor Shinichi Seike's G-strain energy absorber device

[Goat]

Hi All

I've been contemplating building professor Shinichi Seike's G-strain energy absorber device as described by Jean-Louis Naudin (JLN) at:

http://jnaudin.free.fr/html/gseamnu.htm

After reading and looking at the schematics that JLN came up with I noticed that it was different than the one shown in figure 4 of the above mentioned link. 

I know that JLN mentioned "I have not been able to find the 2SC521A used by Professor Seike, so, I have used common TIP 3055 NPN transistor." but my question to all EE's on this forum is:

How did JLN go from the values listed in figure 4 of the above link to the circuit he came up with on this page:

http://jnaudin.free.fr/seike/gseav3.htm


Now to make things even more interesting I did some more sleuthing around on the web and found out that Bob Boyce commented on this device in which he had built it differently using transformers instead of the lamps that JLN used and got very different results.

This is his quote from http://oupower.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=1355

"by Bob Boyce » Wed Feb 07, 2007 1:17 amHey there PalicYou may wish to try to source some NTE87 transistors. They are in a TO-3 case style, and are a better choice than the TIP3055 used by J L Naudin.In the mid 90s I built a successful replication of professor Shinichi Seike's G-strain energy absorber device using three of the NTE87 transistors as a set. I also used a set of three transformers. The outputs of these transformers were rectified and filtered, fed to a load, and back to the input as well. While running, it powered the load, and put a charge into the battery. When the battery was disconnected, the unit went into overunity runaway, quickly burning out both the load, and the transistors. I went through several sets of transistors before I eventually shelved the experiment for a later date. It was interesting to note that the heat sinks on the transistors would frost up every time, just prior to the voltage rise wiping out the transistors. It was as if a peltier effect was taking place in the transistors.Bob"

I would like to try both JLN's circuit and also Bob Boyce's circuit but I would also like to find out from anyone good in electronics how to go from the figure 4 diagrams to Bob Boyce's circuit.

Thanks in advance,

Paul

@All

I'm attaching the circuits mentioned above for comparison.

Hi all;

I just noticed that when I click the picture(s) to enlarge them it takes forever to load the schematic so I'm re-posting 2 of the schematics from figure 4 in separate posts so that everyone can see them without zooming in.

Edit: I just re-sized the image because the last one was unclear, I hope everyone can see this one clearly enough.

Regards,
Paul

Hi all;

Here's the second schematic in figure 4 which is the same components and values (I think).

I found one reference that the 2SC521A can be replaced with a MJ802 transistor.

Is this device supposed to be OU?
