im hopeing to apply a super highly tuned pickup winding config on the gold ring ...

know any body that has one? lol

i would love 100 feeds at 900vdc rectified .. high freq ... 

j or mk1 or st got a good winding ?

is

then intrupt the coil with short pulses of the natural running freq.. and watch it piss fire ..

7hz sound good for second stage pulseing .. and if you want more fire ...  put a magnet on it ..  probally blow the cheep bridges tho

there only 1000v 1a

@all

Wow , the jt is quite popular these day , but there are too many clowns around , lets not turn it into a circus...

Now the jt has nothing to do with the OU claims , its all about the cap ...

They may even even stop making those caps a company can be bought off anytime ...

I feel they made a mistake making those ... Good for us !

Now to conclude , for the same amp values you can do more with low amp high voltage then low voltage high amp.

High voltage doesn't act the same way low voltage dose , for charging a cap i prefer hv ...

Just think will a spark gap work on LowV...

Your right but, what if you combine a HV low current and a LV high current together to jump the gap. WOW!!

Ist,
Do you need a better explanation of my MK1jeanna hybrid?
I put it on a post and all kinds of brown stuff started flying around.
I will be happy to answer your questions about it, if you have them.

I really think a lot of people have misunderstood what I have been doing.
I think lidmotor got it.

I am using eensy little toroids  0.5 inch OD, and last week I got 172 volts off it by virtue of the way it was wound.
That big toroid is thousands of times bigger than the 1/2 inch.
And there is the possibility of stacking 2 of them for a fatter toroid.

Lidmotor mentioned the other day, that he was getting 1000 volts from his which has 300 turns and no special winding except orderly and all around, sort of like xee2's when he had 80 turns light a 4" tube. It was only one sparcely wound layer thick!!!!

If you start with 1000v or 2000volts at12khz or 5khz frequency and add inductors in series all down the line, you can use all those volts. The frequency drops as you use the volts, so you do have a limit, but when you start with 1000 volts and 12khz you could light 3 cfls from one battery, and maybe you can do more.


We just need to get some new 90 year old principles into our heads.
If we study books we must study the old ones. I mean the old ones where they were experimenting with pulses and high voltage. Ben Franklin through Tesla.

I believe we are getting too close which is why all the bs has been here in the past couple of days.
I am both encouraged and disgusted by it.

IST, let me know,

Technically Speaking they are not the same . Wikipedia is correct . One has Dialetric and one has electrolyte like a battery . Two DIFFERENT processes! Super and ULTRA

Can you show the quote that states that because the wikipedia pages starts out by saying both terms are interchangeably? Here are a few pages to read,

Some quotes -->

Question: What's the difference, if any, between an ultracapacitor and supercapacitor?
Answer: No difference, you can use both terms interchangeably.   Usually the terms supercapacitor or ultracapacitor refer to Electric Double Layer Capacitors, or EDLC.

Ultracapacitors (aka supercapacitors) are also known as electro chemical double layer capacitors (ELDC).

The picture they use to show the construction is very interesting.I do not exactly trust it to be a perfect rendering but it may be a good basic understanding type picture.
  Kind of have to wonder if a battery is so limited because thats what sells more batteries.
   Are there practical limits to the size of a voltage limiting diode? If you wanted to pull 13 volts and 500 amps dc from a imaginary high voltage imaginary monster of a cap bank that was millions of volts how would do that?
