Single circuits generate nuclear reactions

[Koen1]

well that's entirely the point, isn't it?
You say it has nothing to do with the proton-electron fusion process
as described by Vall?e, and as such has nothing to do with subatomic
interactions inside the B field,
whereas the device discussed in this thread is entirely based on that
theory and appears to confirm the subatomic interaction process.

That in contrast to the TPU which is still being debated, and shrouded in
quite some mystery; there's lots of people still discussing what might be
the processes involved and what might be the actual exact circuit, etc...

I'm not saying the proceses involved may not be similar in a way,
but I am saying that I think you are too quick to dismiss the Protelf
reaction theory in favour of a TPU-style interpretation.
If the theory behind the TPU is so clear, then why do so many people
have trouble replicating a working TPU?
And if the material is really irrelevant as you say, then it should be
easy to obtain more output by simply placing any conductor in a
B field and pulsing it with hV... shouldn't it? So then a simple setup
with a B field coil around a piece of copper wire should suffice?

Take a note: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bremsstrahlung
This is main-stream and partially describes what happens on HV discharge.

Yep, should be enough (from what I understand), however output will be minuscule, but still a bit more than your energy input. You have to create a long winding so that "charge travel path" within B-field is long. Carbon rod is good for exactly the reason of increasing output: its surface is large (its important due to skin effect). Another hypothesized requirement is "powdered" structure: hence polycrystalline structure is preferred. It's also possible that polycrystalline structure decreases skin effect and the HV pulse interacts with carbon rod to its fullest potential (goes deep into carbon rod).

It should be noted that it is no wonder that most stably working overunity devices created so far are battery chargers, because any surplus energy is immediately fed back into battery. Creating a battery-less device is a complex affair since if you fail to tap surplus energy it will be lost in radiation, and you'll be left with less than overunity device. Probably that's why most SM TPU replication attempts failed.

I honestly believe that the second design proposed at the start of the topic/thread (tried?) maybe is the TPU (at least in effect). Using a magnetic field to bias the core material to just above .5T (small neo or ceramic magnet), small torrid coil for a colpitts or blocking type oscillator and some stranded copper wire to collect the Beta particles. You could feed back part of the output to self power. I figure the components used and the torrid would be just about right for a 21Mhz osc, no?

I would think this is at least worth checking on. I plan on doing so as soon as I have the time, work has been crazy fror the past several months so no time to play, hopefully in the next few weeks I will be able to.

When I first read about device #2, that was one of the first things I thought about.
That many of these magnetic devices like badini motor and TPU
may be drawing there energy from the iron core.

Device #1:
I figured the carbon and tungsten rods were chosen because of there high melting points.
They are the 2 highest mp elements, and they are easy to work with and readily available.
I read the rod has to be encased in a magnetic field, this would be difficult to do with some other elements.
Also toxic chemical release is a major consideration. 
Lower mp elements may vaporize under these high amperage conditions releasing toxic gases.
Also other low mp elements may be turned to liquid and run out of the unit.
These are all things to consider when chosing the materials.
Thus carbon and tungsten are very good choices 
But the most important reason for using them is because a working 60kw unit has already been built.
If we all build a simular unit we have solved our own power needs. 
I would be very happy if I just had a unit that could run heaters to heat my home next winter.
To run heaters needs very little technology, just dump the output into large resistors. No conversion needed.
I read in another post about wind generators that you can build your own heating coils using stainless steal wire.
A lot cheaper then buying baseboard heaters.

@Feynman
   "    I have talked to Juan and he said the 21Mhz NMR oscillation is possible, but he is not actively persuing it.
He has built self-powering units using the standard technique (discharge energy into B-field biased carbon/tungsten, collect beta electrons with toroid).  His devices do not appear to have many capacitors, so I think he must be using one unit to trigger the pulse in another unit and vice versa.
Here is a picture of his 60kW carbon-fusion device  "

Do you have more info on Juan's 60kw unit. 
Like what type of output is he getting, DC or AC?
How much voltage, and what does he do with it, does he run it through an inverter?
I think he must have an external circuit that conditions the output for home use.

Of all the devices on this forum, this one has sparked a strong interest by me.
I read about Naudin's test unit a few years ago, but it didn't spark an interest at the time.
I didn't quit understand the concept at the time. 
And because he didn't pursue it to building a full power source I thought he found problems with it.
