URGENT! WATER AS FUEL DISCOVERY FOR EVERYONE TO SHARE

[Shiver]

Hi Shiver,

Lol...   but I do not seem to find that image you copied, where is that page exactly?

rgds, Gyula

It's the 7th Image down, underneath which it says "Full-wave bridge rectifier".

I understand what you're saying about in series or in parallel, but I don't know how that's expressed in these diagrams as they're new to me.

Cheers

Yes but in the 7th image there are four diodes and not one diode in parallel with the 120V mains as is seen in your picture... and I referred to the one diode in parallel with the mains in your picture in your reply #834 ( previous thread). 
All I mean is that your half wave rectifier is not correct in your picture, the diode should be connected in series with the load and not in parallel with the  AC voltage source, ok?

@Shiver,

yes, i believe you have a good idea. geo, you might want to try using a full wave bridge, not just half wave as you have there with the single diode. also, i would suggest using the diode types ossie suggested and is using, the 1N5404, and fewer (16) would be better also. the diodes are there for protection, but they should be able to "switch" as fast as possible to maximize the effect. you may also try a couple 1N4007's in series with the HV output to isolate the coil from the LV output.

@gyla,

that second parallel diode is not part of the rectifier, and it is not Shiver's diagram, it is geo's. that second parallel diode is for protection in case the long series diode string should break down, it will "short" the negative pulse to gnd rather than blowing up the inverter. this is basic electronics stuff.

Ok, thanks for clarification, now I understand the full situation...  When I responded first, all I saw a diode shunting the 120V mains supply in his picture, and I objected it.

Hi Gang,

Some pictures of my engine/driver slowly coming together.  Fox 78 R/C engine, modified, Flywheel is 6" grinding wheel, Water tank not yet mounted. Have all the parts to finish, just takes time.  Electronics proved on breadboard, will point to point wire it up and mount it......Had to fill and drill flywheel with metal filled epoxy to 5/16 to mount on motor...........etc. etc. etc.  This was just a dry run to see if major components would fit on the "cutting board" I found @ Bed-Bath & Beyond......

Sure would like to see others projects!  Anybody building out there?
