We have also completed a new and much more efficient primary coil to test Thane's Toroids and so far have achieved 38% efficiency in Toroid number 1 which is only 2,000 windings per side. We have not wet tested it in Toroid 2 which is 4,000 windings which should double the efficiency and then Toroid 3 which is 5,500 windings, who knows what it will do

Please stay tuned for more updates.

Are there any early thoughts on why the orginial hypothesis on the efficiency trajectory didn't come to pass?

JUSTSHE - PLEASE POST IT AGAIN TO REMIND US?

AS PROMISED - LUC AND I ARE IMPROVING OUR PRIMARY POWER TRANSFER BY ADDING ADDITIONAL TURNS - THERE IS AN IDEAL NUMBER WE JUST HAVE NOT FOUND IT YET.

THAT BEING SAID OUR EFFICIENCY FOR TOROID # 2 IS UP 20% FROM 31% TO 51% AND WE HAVE NOT TESTED TOROID # 3 YET WHICH SHOULD GIVE US ABOUT 71% IF ALL GOES WELL.

OUR PEAK PRIMARY POWER TRANSFER RANGE HAS NOT BEEN DETERMINED SO WE WILL BE ADDING ADDITIONAL TURNS TO OUR PRIMARY TOMORROW AND WILL ALSO BE WINDING AN ALTOGETHER NEW PRIMARY WITH NEW CORE MATERIAL.

ALSO OU (OTTAWA UNIVERSITY'S) MECHANICAL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT HAS GENEROUSLY OFFERED US A RAIL DUNE BUGGY FRAME TO INSTALL AN ELECTRIC GENERATOR/MOTOR SYSTEM IN. LUC WILL POST PHOTOS ON FRIDAY.

WE WILL BE RUNNING OUR SPECIALLY DESIGNED "DUNE BUGGY" ON A SPECIAL FORMULA OF FART INFUSED METHANE GAS, SNAKE OIL AND HOT AIR FUEL BLEND WHICH PRODUCES LOTS OF SPARKS.

Maybe when you get the buggy going you could go and pickup   PB     Chet   PS nice to see the MEN in the field in such good spirits

Please retest the existing setups using 3, 4, and 5 coils on secondary-2 before moving on to different toroids... testing only 1 and 2 coils does not give enough data points to estimate the perfect number... once the ideal number of coils with toroid #2 is determined, you can move on to toroid #3 and test to see if the ideal coil number has changed...

Another thing - as I pointed out in a previous post, though the efficiency of toroid #2 has increased form 31% to 51%, this seems to have little to do with a change in toroids, but rather the adition of coils. Under the same testing conditions (ie. test 1 and test 2) toroid #1 and toroid #2 seem to have almost identicle efficiencies... So once again, before moving onto another toroid, I would definitely retest toroid #1 under the same conditions as toroid #2 was tested under in tests 3, 4, and 5 - it may turn out that the number of windings in the toroids is a red herring...

BTW - rereading what I just wrote I recognize a lot of numbers and reference tests - please drop me a line if my comment makes absolutely no sense at all... Thanks
