Good day T-1000

"One important thing - the Tesla coil and internal connection from first layer of grenade coil must have common ground."

Well this statement completely contradicts 'Ruslans' schematic.

Note that C**1 & C**2 capacitively couple both ends of the Grenade coil to Earth ground on the Ruslan schematic.  NO common earth ground there!

You can't have it both ways..............

take care, peace

I think he may be referring to a common circuit ground (not main earth ground) between the start of the first grenade layer and the bottom connection of his Tesla coil.

Hello Hoppy
Yes, probably in that *particular* reproduction there is the necessity of a common ground between both Grenade and Tesla secondary, BUT that is NOT shown in the Ruslan schematic.  The Ruslan schematic is distinct with capacitive coupling on both sides of the Grenade coil.

So, who are we to believe when EACH replication is completely different from the next!!!!

This is precisely why no-one can figure out what is happening with this design, because the design keeps changing before it is even a working prototype.

Common grounding between those two parts is not a trivial design change.

Yes, unfortunately that seems to be the case and is why we need step carefully before committing money and a lot of time consuming and frustrating work with too much guessing on both build and tuning details. I'm not convinced that a blocking oscillator approach is essential, given that my first conventional Kacher build did manage to light a small lamp with choke and antenna connected.

On a side note, an interesting snippet from T1000's Russian translation above, about one of the demonstrators friends who was - "on demo in Kapanadze aquarium box, the thick ground wire was heating up"... We don't need a clamp meter to know that a lot of amps were running in that thick welding type earth cable in Aqua1 or was it the copper braid in Aqua2!!

It does not - https://youtu.be/QRhtLrNFRRY?t=6m18s See the thick wire from beginning of Tesla coil joining together with one wire from grenade coil.
To clear up confusion the term 'common ground' refers to the battery negative terminal. The Earth ground is a separate case.

It looks to me as if the red wire may be terminated on the green / yellow earth ground terminal in the plastic enclosure? Its difficult to see clearly as it runs under the grenade coil wire terminations.
