Power ratio over one

Hi David,
yes,sounds good, that you can light the LEDs from the cap after
the bridge rectifier.
Yes, if the cap is still empty( about zero Volts)
the induction current into the cap is high and this will drag down the
rotor.
As the cap gets filled up only the maximum amplitude peak waves will
conduct current into the cap,
as for instance if the cap has 30 Volts DC and the coil produces 32 Volts as
peak signal,  only the difference Voltage of 2 Volts will open up the diodes
and conduct current into the cap, so the current is much lower then.

But I did not yet redraw myself yet the new circuit from Wattsup,
so I could look what caps best to take.
The current connection plan is good to build but hard to see see, what is going on
at all...
no standard electronics schematics I am used to...!

Here's a schematic diagram. Hope it will explain better the connections. This is the best I can do since I do not have any special circuit diagram software, etc. All this is done on CorelDraw, line by line. (Of course lots of cut and paste too.) lol

But I think HG will find it easier with the first diagram to do his connections.

Again if there are any changes to be made, please advise.

Hi Wattsup,
many thanks for the new drawing,
but should there always be a fixed connection
between NO and NC pins in your switches ?

Which switches switch together in which direction.
Please let us know.
Many thanks.

P.S: Or better asked:
Is in the last picture shown C connected with NC in all switches ?

Yes the common terminals go to the caps. The NC terminals go to the generator coil and the NO terminals go to the drive coil.  The NO and NC never touch. Either the NO touches the Common or the NC touches the common like a regular SPDT relay.

The ideal contact switch for this design would have had a Common, NO and NC contact but while the lever is in travel from one side to the other, there would be no contact with either the NO or NC. The switches used do not do this, since they are either on the NC or NO connection, not in between, but this is OK since I think the fact that the generator coil is much bigger then the drive coil, it will decide or push the direction of current flow and switch polarities on the drive coil.

Now to figure out the caps, I would think they should be non-polarized to provide a flow in either direction and any values below 100 volts but with some good uf. Not too much. The idea is not to make power with these two coils. It is only to see if it can run on its own.
