Hi Rob,
thanks for your reply.

@Gustav,
300V, don't be so silly. Start off at 1V and work your way up.......

Sure, you are right.
But I assume my logic circuit (see my previous post) to get the pulse sequence spherics recommended is ok !?

Thanks for your comments Loner,

...
I'll post any results on the "Results" thread.  Starting the test NOW!!!!

I hope you will be able to measure a signal on the collector-toroid.
Any old signal there would be great. Good luck.

Hello all,
               This is my first post so i thought i'd keep this thread going since it sparked my interest in the tpu.  i was hoping to get some feedback on this prototype i came up with, I'm winding the coils with kynar wire about 750 turns each and was thinking to use sandwich layers of cpacpacpacpa (copper,plexi,aluminum) as the collector coil as i heard somewhere that when exposed to a mag field a high voltage is exhibited across plates. Any feedback, criticism is appreciated

the field must cross the collector.   Stick with toroidal collector like Spherics showed for now.  He stated that two coppers bars would also indicate the effect.

Great-lookin build.  Need to catch up...


P.S.  - nice sink

replace the metal components with nylon or delrin equivalents.

McMaster.com has them - fast shpping.

Alternate is to hot-glue with plastic - get 'er dun!
