Pierre's 170W in 1600W out Looped Very impressive Build continued & moderated

What I am questioning is the number of coils that are being turned on according to the quote from Perre. Does this posted sketch turn on 4 coils at a time?

No. Those numbers are not representing coils but switches. At anytime, all 36 coils are active. Look the drawing of PMR at the previous page.

But what about what Pierre himself said?

in my assembly there is 6 coils in series except that there is one that I feed for a fraction of a second so not to lose the magnetic field, so it leaves me with 5 coils operating in reality, example: 1 and 2 are powered by the positive and then 1 goes off to allow the magnetic flux to move etc. So in your case (Pierre is referring to [Luc's] 30 slot) there should be 4 coils operating using the program I gave you which is good.

But what about what Pierre himself said?

Looks like he says the same. Six coils in series across each of the poles, but at the moment of changing to the next switch we have momentarily a different number of coils. You should study his diagram with the 360 deg. cycle showing exactly how current moves and what switches open and close for this to be achieved. PMR's drawing also is very well made.

Yes, I realize that. After all, I have the sketch running on a Mega right in front of me.

Another issue that has never been cleared up, as far as I can tell, is the timing irregularity present in that first sketch posted from Pierre.  Is this intentional, or should there be an even, smooth flow with equal timings all around the ring? If it is intentional, what is the reason and does the demonstrated OU effect depend on it? If it is not intentional... then wtf?

Hi TinselKoala,

It turns on 3 group of 6 coils.  Looking at one group say 1 to 6, then before turning of coil 1 it turns on coil 2 to 7 , then after a delay it turns off coil 1.

Red=1
Blue=13
Green=25

Current through the upper red switch flows to ground through two below switches (Red and Green). The same action happens with the other two upper switches. So current flows all time through all of the 36 coils. At least this is how i get it.
