Regular Transformer connected to the Bi-toroid Transformer (possible issue)

Your core is good. I cant see any problem here except the airg gap in the center leg. Maybe this airgap affect the secondary flux from bypassing the primary coil.

Thanks. This one has some gaps on the cuts too which is probably causing loss. The secondary flux is ideally meant to travel through the core beneath the top one. Only the top one has a center leg. I haven't got as good results as other people but on average at 60hz connected to another transformer connected to the wall outlet, I'll get about 130% to 150%. The best I've managed to get using 100hz and 200 hz with an amplifier was 240%.

So if anything I'd say it's good enough to prove the concept. I'll try a better design on the next one. First though, I'm looking into ways to avoid the problem of power consumption when connecting it to the wall outlet. Even if I design one to connect directly to it, the power consumption would be experienced at the next transformer in connection to the grid. Like maybe the one up at the power lines or those big metal green boxes you see outside.

I was thinking maybe rectifying the power and using an inverter made of the BiTT. I don't know if this will work I still have to do the math to see if it makes sense.
