Is this the first selfrunning overunity motor w/o batteries ? Mike?s motor

OK, thanks for that Peter.

So it looks like you confirmed what I found out.

I'll try some values between 0.3 and 0.6 as well. These coils are not particularly closely-coupled.

PS. Hope you get your scope soon too. I'm also looking into DSO's.

One other thing I need to know about these coils is their self-resonant frequency. I'll then be able to determine the coil's parallel cap for the model.

Sorry, not sure what a Dip meter is.??

probably too high frequency anyway.

Just want to raise a point here. It seems it is thought that Mike never came back to the forums because he couldn't get his motor running again after having a couple components die in his first unit.

I'm not sure where this came from, but here's a quote from Mike seemingly stating the opposite:

OK guys I got the hall ic and the motor is working again
here are the scope shots taken across cap neg. and ss relay output before diode.

This was the post that he gave us his D2 shots. It was shortly after this post that Mike disappeared.
