@jim,
How exciting. I have been seeing this too where one but not another will go off and always in the same order. I did not know how to interpret it. So, great, your work has been replicated by me!

Of course, I liked your carrtoon.- and the teeny video. They work well on my computer just show up with no extra work. whatever 3gp is?

Anyway, great stuff.

thank you,

jeanna

EDIT simultaneous post. I won't be getting a strobe until March. and I just hope they still have em.

Another Teny Weny Video by electricme

Here is my big torid, I discovered I could turn off just the 3rd secondary output, by a flimsy 2 turn coil, by shorting out the output of this coil.

Wilby:

Thanks!  I have seen some of his videos but not that one for some reason.  This will help a lot.  Thanks for the explanation also on the strong magnets/small coil.  Makes total sense.  As strong as the neos are...too close to the core and it will want to stop at each magnet while turning, like a magnetic detent or something.  Thank you.

There is nothing like venturing into new and strange territory and having the help and aid of you folks here.  This is really great.


@ Jim:

Nice video.  You weren't kidding when you said small. But, it showed everything you were telling us.  My videos are not so concise.  That really is a huge toroid you have there.  That is a very interesting effect you are getting and also interesting that Jeanna was seeing that as well.  I wonder what it means?

@ Jeanna,
Don't worry if you miss out on the nice new cro, strobe? another will take its place, good things happen to good people.

May I call on your help Jeanna with my TWV, after seeing it on the forum, it looks huge, could you please reduce it so it is not so large, like your (2 wires 4 ends icon). please 

I realised that people were missing the videos I had made because it is represented by the usual tiny paper clip, which is the same as the photo paper clip.

I thought if I make something and post it every time I post the TWV video, people would see it and realise there was more info about the topic at hand.

Got to go and wind another secondary to this torid, wow, this is fun fun fun.

Thanks Jeanna
