yup. 2 hard drive discs with some small neos glued inbetween.

Nice work!
I've had my Adams motor working for months but always had the problem of finding that "Sweet spot" in the switching. Well, that appears to have finally changed. Got to the point where my battery (only one) was self charging for a period of about eight hours before my crude attempt at a commutator broke down. It has taken a week to get back to that point (self charging) but, and I do mean BUT, I've done it using an external switching device. It is now self charging but I'm at an impass...
How to get the same switching without adding any extra drain.
My motor is a twenty two inch bicycle wheel with 12 magnets, all north facing out. Two bifilar coils of 20 AWG and each winding is approximately 5.5 ohms and they are mounted at 90 and 270 degrees. Running them on a SSG ckt using a reed switch for pulse timing. Both coils are being pulsed in paralell and I'm using both windings in both coils. Picking up my feedback voltage from two other coils (one is 7 lbs of 18 AWG and the other is about 5 lbs of 20 AWG.) located at 0 and 180 degrees.
It IS working and now it is time to add that final piece to the puzzle. Commutator from a bicycle wheel. Any and all suggestions will be entertained to get this switching right.

Thanks to all who pursue this motor for your help by posting on this site.

Thanks carl.

May I suggest this site? http://www.fight-4-truth.com/Schematics.html. You have probably already seen it, but I suggest making a commutator similar in design to image 12 or 14. You may spend twice as long making a commutator as you did making the whole project, but if you think it through and make it adjustable and the contacts easy to replace, then it will last alot longer.


Good luck.

@ Ren
Appreciate the link and any more to come.

Just for now I'm not going to touch this arrangement to see how far it will go in this charging process.
This is a 1500 AH deep cycle battery I'm working with and it does take time to see the change.
Started this morning at 12.34V periodically showing 12.33 and as I write it is 12.36 periodically showing 12.35. I want to know that I've got this timing thing rite, so I'll let her run overnight.
Thanks again for the response.

Hi Folks,
I am a new member and new to this technology. I am great full  for all the people that are involved  with it . This looks like a great sharing community and I hope that I may be use full  in helping when I get up to speed. Thanks for the info. on the coil circuits and take care, I'll give it a try and keep everyone posted.
