Rosemary Ainslie Circuit Demonstration, June 1 2013

[MileHigh]

Z-Day is coming.  I am going to get a big solenoid and a new car battery and energize and hide inside my personal magnetic bubble during the demo.  No truant sub-light Zipons are going to rip through my DNA, I tell ya.

I just hope we will still be here...

In the spirit of fair play, and to show that I'm not such a bad guy.... I've turned off my Scalar Longitudinal NERD Preventer, the device which has prevented Ainslie from performing any tests for the past two years. So if she doesn't manage to put on her show the day after tomorrow..... you can't blame it on me, it won't be my fault.

Note now that she has posted my calculation concerning FIGURE 5.

But she responds to it as if it were FIGURE 3.

Where are her "engineers"? Can't THEY read?

Do we REALLY have to go through this again?

The post she is falsely criticizing is talking about FIGURE 5, not Figure 3 !! My calculations are correct, for FIGURE 5!! (with the revision of about .65 volts instead of .75 as I at first said.)

What a bloviating and overweeningly arrogant fool she is. And anyone can see for themselves that I used the superscript for I²R and squared the value in the calculation. Of course, you have to be able to read an equation to see that.... and Ainslie evidently cannot.

She makes an idiot of herself without even any help from me at all! And she doesn't even address the false claim in the paper that six batteries in series were used FOR FIGURE 5, when the scopeshot clearly shows that only four were used.

The incredibly insulting and arrogant way she delivers her total load of BS really makes my blood boil. She can't even get her ERRORS right.

Just for that.... I'm turning the NERD Preventer back on.

TK,

Nice of you to turn your gizmo off...

That second video was quite interesting.

If Q2's body diode clamps high enough at Vbatt=72volts to allow 12volts at the gate, you may be on to very real possibility.

If the probes used had removeable hooks, I had considered one of them slipping out of its connector and cap coupling the CSR signal.  But that would likely have passed a visible, AC coupled version the Q1 on/off signal and just tipped the trailing edge of Q1's on period.  But, as no hint of Q1 turning on is visible in FIG3, I dismissed that possibility.

But I have to admit, I did not consider placement of the probe on the wrong side of the CSR.  You have been thinking about this way too much!! 

Do you have a way to safely test the gate signal clamp level at 72 volts? (regulated bench supply, short on times)

As I said in an earlier post, I think a bit over 12volts of gate signal is possible at Vbatt=72 volts.  I am not sure why .99's figures were a bit lower.
