Muller Dynamo

@joefr.

I am very much interested in your Audrino setup. Is it possible to post your source code and hookup to it. I am presently  in one of many upgrades to latest Konehead opto setup marveling on his constant ingenuity I  hope to  have it running soon. I am yet to grasp his 5 fets AC setup without schematics,, LOL,, I recently purchased Audrino  duemilanove and would like to start using it. I see great potential and versatility in using the Audrino.

It is great to see so many going to arduino control, I have a mega and do plan on using it on my replication as well. Zerofossilefuel is also using his arduino and just yesterday posted the latest version of the sketch he is using. It can be found at alt-nrg.org look for the muller link. Also another person has been working on another sketch (pulsefire) it is also an open source project sketch. If you are interested in it I would be happy to find link or send code directly to you?
I hope to be in the garage all day working, I really need to make a video of my rig working and the different results of different coil connections and positions, as it is to hard to explain in words.
Peace

Hi Desa and Rawbush

Here is my Arduino code I am using to control the coil shorting - unshorting and controlling SSR relays to dump cap voltage to load.
The code is far from optimal ( i am beginner in programing) and I hope that we have some Arduino guru here on overunity forum?

Desa in my video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lxh3XnU8lko I showed that coil unshorting at top sine wave is better at charging a Cap 680uF 200V.

Hi JoeFR

all you really eed to figure is what is the voltage drop of that cap - jsut scope that 680uf cap, see what the peak volts is, before the discharge to light, and what it drops too at the lowest voltage level you see... then times each numbe by themselves (squared) and minus the square of one from the other and there is your middle number in the equation - the  farads of your cap / 2 is easy, so is the rate per second...

Looking at the development of Power GAP and his latest updates I just realized that this RomeroUK is very, very similar to his setup if you use your imagination.

I was hoping some here would go with the Texas Instruments Launchpad which is very much like the Arduino but practically being given away by TI at only $4.30 each.  Even comes with cables and you can get the software free as well as lots of support on forums.  Heck it comes with a temperature sensor and program to display it as well as an extra chip so it's worth it just for that alone.  Slightly slower processor than the Arduino but I'm sure it would work for the motor control here.  Someone here in the early pages of this thread mentioned it and I think he was planning on using it for the motor but I haven't seen him around for a long while.
