Revised topic, choose to ignore, the choice has "always" been yours.

forget the electronic commutator.

The Newman machine OverUnity part is mainly based
on the mechanical commutator doing the sparks and converting
carbon from the brush via oxidation to free electrons into the circuit and thus
converting the carbon brush directly into free electricity
which will charge up the battery..

So an electronic commutator will not work and
has all already been tried and you will
just get a normal DC motor.
This has been around since around 1984 and
only mechanical commutators did work !

Enhance the spark and get as many sparks per revolution as you
can and with bigger coils that have more capacitance you will
also get more DC level back current spikes during the spark.
(This means more electrical energy in the back spike)

You can also try to hook up a few 100 nF (3000 Volt ratings) caps into some coil taps
to enhance the "stray capacitance" of the coil and thus get bigger back current pulses.

You must see the coil in a compensation circuit as a parallel circuit of several LC tanks.

Hope this helps.

The secret is just in tuning the sparking and getting the most energy out of it
with the right setup !

P.S: If you still light up your neon bulb you are
wasting  the backspike energy into this light output,  but you are not
recharging the battery with it...
