I was trying to find some Iron welding rods for core material, but the rods don't tell you on the box what metal they are.
Only what type of metal they are meant to weld. So how does one know your getting iron rods and not steal, or some other alloy.
Could you give me some rod numbers to go by?
They use 4 digit numbers for the rods.
The following site shows an example of what I'm talking about.

Perhaps someone could tell me which of these numbers would be the right type of rod.

ABBARUE,

JUST HOLD A STRONG MAGNET NEAR THE ROD AND MAKE SURE IT ATTRACTS IT.
THE MORE ATTRACTION THE BETTER.

AVOID ALUMINIUM, COPPER & STAINLESS.

HELMUT,
WAKE UP MAN IT'S MRS. PB AND SHE'S AT AT AN INTERIOR DESIGN SHOW.- SHE'S LOOKING FOR SOME FINE GERMAN SAUSAGE TO GO WITH THAT DRINK!
VIBROVINII YOU'RE NEXT DUDE WITH ALL YOUR DUTCH DYKES ETC.           
Thane

I'm next with what? My brain is a bit rusty today 
What's up with our poorly maintained dykes? When the water comes i'll be long gone they won't hold for 2 mins haha
I've send you a PM btw, not sure if you read them?

PS- Vibrovirii you're a hoot!

Just woke up time to make some coils and pick up an oscilloscope from my dad's work.
Which hoot do you mean? I do all of em though 
Urban dictionary:
1. Hoot 
another word for being sorry, dumb, stupid
"damn blood you hoot'

2. Hoot
A good time.
We had a hoot at the Monster Truck Rally.

3. Hoot
a toke of the marijuana smoke
Hoot this bowl.


Peace, B

1-Nah, 2-Close, 3-Nah,

American slang - Kick ass funny.

Thanks for the laughs.

PS - Don't look up Nah. It is the American Affleck goat (tv commercial) saying no.

P.S. Remember, I've always only been talking about a completely open magnetic generating system.

Thane, if you're magnets are inserted into metal cups then you have a semi closed system, because you are redirecting the flux from the rear of the magnet up to the circumference edge of the magnet pole facing the coils. Penetration of the flux from the open magnet pole end to the coil core will be shallow, as it follows the easiest path through the face of the coil core to the opposite pole at the external cup around its circumference.

This is one possibillity why you haven't seen similar results to mine. And perhaps part of the reason your results have been intruiging. No doubt there may be other differing parameters as well. I've already posted links on this thread to my previous experiments twice. So no need to again. I acknowledge that, whilst I believe you are dealing with the same effect as that which I have previously studied, there is still a possibility that it is not the same, or , if it is the same, it's manifestation is different due to any number of variations between our system parameters.

Hi Hoptoad,

It is a semi closed system with metal cups. This has always intrigued me. Do you have ideas on how that dynamic would play out? It seems that N-S would fight until the opposite face loses. My question is would that be a slow flux loss based on face percentage or an extended battle causing a quick flux release at certain coil charge value? In case you missed this fact in all the clutter, the core/magnet gap is much larger then in a convention motor/generator.

Thanks,
Larry

PS- Thanks adlep.
