Reactive power - Reactive Generator research from GotoLuc - discussion thread

Then there is the problem of it being connected to the grid, none of these systems that require connection to the grid will have any future if the power company finds out about it, just like the guys in Brazil, the power company will not allow other people to make use of their grid to do work for free. For there to be any uses for this stuff the device needs to be able to make use of a motor driven AC [color=rgb(27, 142, 222) !important]generator[/color]/alternator as the [color=rgb(27, 142, 222) !important]power supply[/color] or some other way of obtaining the AC supply on site, connecting to the grid takes out the cost of producing the AC power to begin with, it's simply cheating.

Oh I wouldn't worry too much about the power companies anymore than one would worry about the horses when the automobile came or whale oil companies when the light bulb was invented. They will be obsolete soon enough and our children will look back on us in the same way we would back on the pioneers. They will laugh at this nonsense and wonder how such people even managed to walk upright. This is true as it has always been true throughout our history and your power companies days are numbered. Nobody... I repeat Nobody has the power to halt progress and evolution, it marches on as consistently as time itself.


On a side note if all goes well by this time next year I will have the pleasure of demanding the power company remove all there equipment from my private property. You see the power companies are nothing more than a simple service provider and I have the right to choose who provides it or to generate my own power. We are in control of our future not them ... deal with it.

You bet and the customer is always right !

Unless there is a governing law that a greased political figure passes to make us wrong lol.

Than in this case a little civil disobeying may be of the order.

Laws only stick if the majority follow them and the tipping point for any issue is believe it or not only 10% of a difference another interesting fact.

Make sure that you read the article about the lady that is being evicted
from her "paid for property" because she doesn't use the grid. Paid for
property? Yea right! Just dont pay your property taxes and see who really
owns it.

Tried one of the Russian circuits that Wings posted.
Interesting results!

I did not have 1:1 transformers, so I made do.

AC 110 volt to
Killowwatt meter to
110 volt to 220 volt step up transformer to
240 volt to 120 volt transformer to
15 uf capacitor  on one leg
Outdoor HO florescent tube inductor on other leg
Both legs to 230 volt to 208 volt transformer to
Load

Voltage out was slightly higher than 110 volts.
After tuning for the right capacitor value the load (in this case a scroll saw) did not draw more amps on loading.
Tried the saw with no circuit and loaded it to stall both with cutting and by manually locking the reciprocating arm. The amps shot way up as did wattage used .
Same thing with wrong capacitor values.
Tune to proper capacitance and loaded the saw within the russian circuit and absolutely no increase in amps or watts used even on stall. Was able to cut same material.
Need someone with proper measuring equipment to try this!

the Russian circuits use a variable inductor to tune the circuit to resonance (much easier that change capacitor size) in your circuit you have the small white transformer put on the free side a DC current regulated by potentiometer or put a magnet at different distance like in this experiment :http://sparkbangbuzz.com/mag-amp/mag-amp.htm very similar to the Russian http://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/5410/47810397.14/0_66976_6bec2ddb_L.jpg


The Russian have a circuit to tune the variable magnetic inductor (m.amplifier) according to the load current and to output load voltage.
