or maybe run walter lewins water battery back into the secondary coil? its naturally pulsed and regulated??
just a idea

[gaby de wilde]

The electrodes DO know which is, as you call it, primary or secondary in series. Remember we have two dissimilar metals, say copper and zink. copper to copper and zink to zink is parallel, copper to zink copper to zink is series with the first zink and the last copper being the terminals.

but if we have: [z]-[c]-[z]-[c] Don't we end up with one big [z]-----[c] and a  short [c]-[z] sitting in the center with it's wires shorted? How do the middle 2 know they are part of a series of batteries?

Does the north south placement fix this problem?

[hansvonlieven]

It has nothing to do with north south. All galvanic batteries work like this whether they share a common electrolyte or not

Edit call it + and - instead of copper and zink and you see perhaps what I am talking about

How about this scenario:

Wind coils like Stubblefield did. with third exciting coil on top.  Connect leads of that third coil to regular pair of electrodes driven into ground to power it up.   Test voltage at primary iron and secondary copper coils to see if we get anything.  If there is voltage,  will connecting them into series create also the same problem we have now with electrodes in the ground?

No not really george sorry, umm, we want to step up  not down.. now since this primary is contained within the secondary it could be confusing if your use to seeing say 200 turns of gauge 18 magnet wire with say, 10 turns of gauge 12 on top of the 200 turn coil but same concept just different coil geometry.  In one of the Tesla coils the patent clearly states that it was a flat would spiral coil single layer and we know what the secondary looks like(the tower part) so it would be safe to say some transformers secondaries can partially or completely contain their (primary) exciter coil. Hope that helps, im soldering my voltage multipler circut now and hope to try that out tomorrow.
