The Brnbrade Coil/Overunity?

[wattsup]

I don't know why the number 8 came out as a smiley.

@Earl

I'll take two Rat Races to go.  The circuit looks great. Can it do reverse polarity?

Actually I think I will get myself a Pulse Generator since my electronic skills are to limited and I always look to pulse devices with DC.

@BEP

Good work. We'll stay tuned.

the smiley is the cool one using '8'+')' ,just put space between them or disable the smiley in your post

Hey Wattsup, glad to know I am not the only one!  But..I am learning. 

I sprayed my tower primer on a hot-rolled iron rod and let it dry. The only thing interesting was when I passed current from the iron to the coating - the current vs. time looked like a tunnel diode. Not very clean at all but the shape was there. The main component in the primer is zinc. I connected to the rod with an alligator clip. My connection to the coating was cat-whisker style with a nickel plated steel wire.

I just read a few posts back about wrapping the foil in a way it did not short on the other side. That reminded me of an old fractal antenna experiment I tried a very long time ago.

PC board etched as follows:

2 circles - one within the other
each not complete
the open ends faced 180 from each other
a wire passed through the center and not making contact with either circle
pass current through the wire
oscillation occurs between the incomplete circles - damped but distinct and longer lived than expected.
So I dropped it and found a better way.

Now have multiple incomplete circles each connected to the metal below and above it (in layers - I say connected because the chemicals in the primer eat at the varnish on the wire) with a
crude negative resistance diode (tunnel). Would the results be interesting? Would Aluminum particulates do something similar? I don't know and won't find out until late this weekend.

Hey BEP,

It does sound like grounds for some great experimentation.  I can't wait for the weekend, to see how it goes.

Warm regards,
Bruce

OK you guys, here's something weird or wonderful.

I  hooked up the coils in another configuration. I am enclosing a photo of my standard hook-up showing the coils numbered 1 ans 2 and terminals ends identified as A, B, C and D so I can then describe how I connected it. So if I say AS this means the secondary of A, if I say DP this means the primary of D. Got it.

I am also enclosing a photo of my current set-up.

So basically, here's the way I connected my new set-up.

AS to DP, BS to CP, CS to BP and DS to AP.

I connected my Digital Meter to B+ and D-.

I took a 27,000uf 40vdc capacitor and hooked it to my power supply set at 30 vdc for about 15 seconds.

Then I removed the cap from the power supply and connected the positive of the cap to A and the negative of the cap to C.

Obviously I saw the voltage go from 30 vdc quickly down to about 1 volt, then a funny thing happenned.

The voltage started going up on its own very slowly. It's now up to 2.093 vdc oups 2.094 vdc and still going. Will let this sit and see what happens.

I think what will eventually happen is that the voltage will rise to the maximum resonance of the coil and then stay there, but I will see with time.

Oups now 2.101 vdc.

This is the same coils original coils I made on day one. The build is in this thread somewhere. Please try this with your coils.

Now 2.118 vdc

wow! that is interesting...
think i will start a build tomorrow.
keep up the good work.
