Has anyone seen Lasersabers new motor runs on 1000uf cap

[Magluvin]

27awg  52ohms     1000ft
30awg  105ohms    1000ft

Have not found an ohms rating for 42 awg yet but 40awg is about 1011ohms  1000ft

I was considering the other day using 30awg I have around, but now no.

hello all
there is also a list with intermediate AWG sizes (from alcatel)
attached the one at hand, but if anyone interested I may look for the other and post it too.
cheers
edit: a very good one here   www.powerstream.com/Wire_Size.htm

Thanks Al

This chart is strange. lol  Theres a lot to figure out, like ft per Lb  then ohms/Lb.   I like the linked one, but still no 42awg ratings.  Im sure there is something out there.

I would venture to say that Lasers motor coils in series is in the thousands of ohms. Im not sure how much of that roll of 42awg/6700ft that he used on the 12 coils. Maybe he used more than one roll. Dunno.

Maybe this is good enough

Thanks Webby    Man, imagine 46awg. It must be like hair. One chart went to 55awg but no resistance numbers for 41awg and up.

Excellent chart. It even shows the range of resistance the wire can be. 

So 42 awg is around 1500 to 1800ohms per 1000ft. The roll Laser has shown in the 6 coil vid can be 10,000 ohms or better. Pretty wild stuff. lol the wire is so thin, if you didnt count the turns, each coil could be several layers off from one another without noticing visually im sure.

Im looking into  making a version of the motor with more coils but smaller and using 1/4 x 1/8 mags then try 1/2 x 1/8  then 1/2 x 3/8.  I have these already. Just messing with the design for fitting coil geometries on Cinema 4D to see just how many coils I might wish to wind.

I am ordering the wire in 42 and looking at some smaller to try some things.

Does it float?
