   Your hard work and effort is much appreciated!

@Gustav thank you for the translation & links

@Gabi Thanks for the artwork

As Gabi is trying to understand Otto's descriptions, she often draws up several alternatives, asking Otto to confirm which one represents the correct understanding.
Otto has confirmed that the second (lower) drawing in

http://www.overunity.com/index.php/topic,1848.msg30731.html#msg30731

is correct and that the drawing mentioned in my previous posting was wrong.

Otto has also told us, that he thinks that oscillators based on the 555 chip are not really suitable. He used an ICL 8038 for some time with good results [but killed it in the end, I guess].
He will try to supply a wiring diagram for a suitable oscillator as soon as time permits (end of this week or next week).

All control coils are wound CW.

He also said we don't have some of the important details yet, but he will try to provide accurate documentation.

Please note that this is work in progress and more bugs (also in communication) will probably have to be fixed as time rolls on.

@chrisC
I only translate.

It is my understanding that the loop is not yet 100% closed, i.e the oscillator still is powered from an external power source, but presumably with less input power than what is available to light the bulb.

Gabi's "final" rendition as confirmed by Otto can now also be seen here

Hello all,

thanks a lot Gabi and Gustav22.

Its the bottom drawing. Look exactly at this drawing. You will NOT see at the first moment whats going on.
When you look better than you see that the blue 6" outher collector wire is connected to the 4" INNER collector wire and the red 6" inner collector wire is connected to the 4" outher collector wire.
