Selfrunning cold electricity circuit from Dr.Stiffler

[nickle989]

Good news .. my SEC showed up in the mail .. now should be able to see some performance differences between my frankenstein and the Dr.'s.

Seems to be a lot of speculation around the Dr. leaving staying being sick etc.  forone I would like it if we all stayed on topic so this can progress and wait till the Dr. says something.

DO NOT *EVER* LOOK AT THE SUPER WHITE LEDs
OR THE NEONS CONNECTED AS LOADS WITHOUT
OSHA APPROVED UV PROTECTION. A SIGNIFICANT
AMOUNT OF X-RAY CAN ALSO BE PRESENT AND
PRESENTS AN EXTREME HAZARD.

...damn, and I was just starting to enjoy the after flashes I get from staring at the LEDs.

Hmm I don't recall ever getting anything on my Geiger counter, but then again I should have measure more often...I'll try again soon and see if it counts anything, once my sec15-3 arrives.

@storre

if you chain many SEC together they will ALL change each others behavior as if they were really one. So scalling, at least in my experience, has not been very successfull, but I do agree that if a very high impedance load, I mean really high, may be will allow some kind of chainning.

@Dr.Stiffer

until you return, I guess I will post some more.

@All

I have been experimenting with charging batteries as many know. One of my recent changes (gotloc please read this) has been adding some more chokes at the base of the transistor (as per original design) and removing the variable choke/form. My recent specs are:
1) 3 parallel chokes of 22uh and no form/coil in place of the original one 22uh.
2) 400pf capacitor at the base of the transistor (as original spec).
3) one wire from the first AV plug (as Dr's specs) into another board with more AV plugs. This new board has another 22uh chokes and instead of an AV plug with diodes I have an "AV plug" using 10uh chokes and then next and AV plug with diodes. Cross this ending AV plug I connected a 400pf capacitor.

This whole circuit increase the output power by at least 50%.

I will create an schematic tomorrow.

Fausto.

I'm not dead and not dying other than normal aging. I have suffered a burn to an eye, cause unknown, could be Texas Sun, could be Arc Welding, but it may indeed be viewing SEC outputs without proper protection. Whatever the reason the condition will be improved (projected) over the next few weeks.

SEC is still alive and well, in fact better than ever.

I have decided to change to a different form of presentation an interaction, that being in a more controlled an focused environment.

To answer a few questions; SEC has been ramped up, SEC is now viable for heating and light sources with displayed gain. New moderate power PCB's have been produced, 5-30 watts. Chaining these units allows for reasonable and productive devices.

So, don't feel I left the earth, work is going on and the work is advancing. If you have a SEC PCB work with it, it is the doorway to what you all seek.

Thanks....
