Circuit setups for pulse motors

P.S. I hope you don't mind, but I copied your question and my answer to the bottom of Page 4 on my website as a postnote, because you raised a very relevent potential problem and it was something I should have addressed with a scenario and solution.

After all, everything has an up and a down side.

I hope I haven't caused you to suffer too many circuit problems by way of information omission. 
I hate it when things go PHsssssttt and then puff little smoke rings of exhaustion and overload! 

Cheers all - Keep on motoring!

@Hoptoad,

No worries about things going phssssst.... All part of experimentation. Without failure, where's success? :-)

Thanks for your help.

more pics guys. Finished circuit, runs nice and smooth! Awaiting some new batteries as the old ones I have, while charging, arent really ideal for a study of this machine. I'll post a vid soon!

Ren,
I like the setup, let us know how it works out. I know I don't post much anymore, but I still watch. And the vcr bearings work great.

Hey Jase,

So far so good. Little bit dissapointed as I can only seem to get the 12v 7amp hours up to 13.10v. I can charge two or three though before the run goes flat. Think I need a bigger coil, or more of them.

Draws 90-100 ma on one transistor, and 230ma on two. Charge time is between 4-6 hours. I might try some smaller batteries, perhaps some 4 amp hours to see if it simply the geometry of my coil that is insufficient. Its doing everything Bedini says it will anyway, the batteries are brand new.

On a side note, just caught up with an old friend who I found out inspects emergency lighting in office complexes. Guess what he has to swap out every two years by law! I scored 2 24amp hours and 4 12 amp hours off him. He says he throws out about a hundred a week! Now I just got to find someone who is throwing out butloads of copper wire and Im set!

Merry christmas mate.
