Some thoughts on how the TPU might work.

Hi Grumpy,


This is because part the output of the fly back transformer is used for feed back to the input circuit as well as provide the output to the horizontal deflection coils, plus provide the heater voltage for the high voltage rectifier tube. The horizontal deflection coils must be at a perfect wave form out of the fly back transformer. (I think this what I am saying as the last TV set I worked on was in 1968)
This is why I say, to me any way, that the TPU and a fly back transformer are, or the principals any way, are the same in both.
The wave form of a horizontal deflection coil has a spike "kick" then a slope down on a scope. This is because of the horizontal sweep that the deflection coil provides to the electron beam.
The fly back transformer must match this wave form perfect or it won't work.  If you can find a schematic on the web showing a fly back transformer circuit. you will see what I mean better than I can explain it.
Well the closer the better any way.
Also this may be why so many coils had to be made by the inventor before a "good" one was found and had to do with more than just wire length.
It very well may be because of the wave form characteristics of the coil, given the importance the inventor places on coil size and design.

Gee whiz people, put away the square wave generators, scopes and DC power supply's.
 
The inventor keeps stressing the safety aspect all the time in his notes and videos.
This is the signal and its power that needs to be tapped with the TPU.

Sorry, Grumpy, I did not mean to vent my views in my response to you.

Here is something too for what it is worth.

In the inventors notes he said that his TPU device worked in a plane at 15,000 feet.
Also he said that South of the Equator the TPU worked in reverse,
I am not sure what reverse means exactly, but I do find it interesting.

Talking about fly back transformers, you might try going to yard sales and look around for old tube TVs from the 50-60.
After about 1970 the designs changed and really went to cheap junk, so I would look for the older ones. 
I see them now and then when people pull them out of their basements or attic.
Most don't work and you can get them almost for free or a few dollars. You want a old table top or console model.

Take it home and pull it apart and look at the fly back transformer. It will be in the high voltage cage.
Check out the design, take a few apart, get a feel for it.
Study the all the little things in there from a by gone analog age before computers.
Find some schematics of old TVs on the web or in an old book store.
Take some time to study these.
There just might be some pay dirt in looking at one of those old clunkers.
If you try to run it, be sure to discharge the HV anode before digging in to the HV section. 

Put yourself in the inventors shoes for a while. See where he comming from.
Remember this was the inventors world, not the X box, big  plasma screen world of today.
Just an Idea. 

If the Earth suddenly dropped in to the Sun tomorrow morning, the Sun would not even hiccup. However I think my fire insurance would be up for a rate increase.

Just some thoughts at 3:37 AM

Hi Grumpy,

Hey don't worry about not being an electronics engineer. I am not either. I am a retired Instrument tech after 35 years.
The best part about what everyone here is doing is that everyone here is INTERESTED.
You may be surprised how many electronics "experts" could care less and are out playing golf as this area of research is well, stupid and a waste of time.
I don't think any one here thinks what they are doing is stupid or a waste of time or they would not be here in the first place.
I wish more of these people would get off the golf course and come here to help, the planet is in trouble, no time for golf.

I have been told that: Research is what you are doing when you don't know what you are doing. I think this is true.

I guess I would like to see a little more direction and thought process is all. It is just me being me.

Gee, now I forgot your questions.
