My first WFC/VIC

Great information and insight. Since this is new to me, my ability to visualize the back EMF is a bit clouded. I understand the principles, but more learning is necessary.

Ok, so I heard that Stan Meyer used 4000 feet of stainless steel wire (very small diameter). That is an incredible amount of wire. Stainless Steel is a poor conductor compared to copper right? So that explains the high resistance, but also high inductance all at once without a million. That is a lot of wire, too much to hand wind that's for sure.

Anyway I just bought 20 gauge wire, 1050 feet of it. I was thinking of buying another spool and winding those together BIFILAR to use as a my choke coil.

I am a bit confused about which direction the back EMF goes when you collapse the magnetic field and release current. In my experience, when I release the energy from a coil, the energy travels toward the ground (except that when you disconnect the ground wire) the energy has nowhere to travel, so on some circuits the back EMF is not harnessed at all.

I took a coil with positive north, and negative south pole (bottom) and when I release the ground wire connection from the coil, the EMF spike comes from the negative wire traveling out of the of the South pole. You can't use this power for anything since the EMF spike is not attached to anything (unless you hook it up to a secondary battery or a capacitor) Does this sound right?

The direction of current doesnt change. This is the reason why the back-EMF is always negative (the opposite) to the voltage you used to energize the coil.

rgds.

(thats difficult to explain)

Good info! That makes sense!

I found this, just wanted to share to see if it has any value. Apparently the concept is from 1913.

Also found this.

This is what Stanley Meyer says in one of his patents on the VIC.

"In terms of Component Reactance, Inductors should always be larger than Capacitor of Figure (7-2) in order to maximize amp restriction to enhance "Voltage Deflection" "

After experimenting with a bifilar inductor and then adding more inductors in series, and getting 7 times more voltage that I started with on a small DC motor that uses pulsed DC I know they are big deal.

It seems obvious to me, though I don't have the math skills to prove it, that you need large inductors and a very small water capacitor to start with. BUT*** the replications appear to ignore Meyer's advice and they use a tiny worthless set of inductors with very little resistance (too large of wires and not enough inductance). He specifically says to use "resistive wire" (stainless steel) for the inductors and that they need to be LARGE while the water cell should be small. It seems that people are designing and replicating these water fuel cells partially incorrect?

Just some thoughts, I could be totally wrong.
