RESONANCE EFFECTS FOR EVERYONE TO SHARE

[otto]

Hello all,

Look at Gotolucs message 412. He wanted TPU kicks and I gave him my solution.

@sparcs

1. pulse first a 100W bulb. Result: nothing of course.
2. pulse a little coil, say, 30 turns, diameter of the windings maybe 12mm or 1/2" AND connect the 100W bulb in paralel to the pulsed coil. Result......
3. place a core inside the coil
4. use a cap for resonance

There is a lot to learn.

Lovely! I love the coronas.

I use CFs with the power supply base removed, though. Just the naked bulb. I think the power supply could be short-circuiting some of your energy. Can you do a comparison with one bulb with PS and one without?

I'm not completely certain I understand you Tinsel.  Do you mean that you dont put your bulbs in direct contact with your coil??  I sit my bulbs on top of my toroid, usually - but of course they do work within a distance of about 1 metre from the coil.  So I think you'd like a picture of a bulb sitting on the toroid, and one of a bulb just sitting nearby (or in my hand like your picture).   Correct me if i'm wrong and i'll take the photos tonight, when the baby aint home!

    Thanks for the reply Otto.   Power equals volts times amps.  Now if you get the volts times amps alot of times then you have gain in power.  Pretty fundamental.

If your coil has any power at all, and you let the true Tesla discharge hit the glass envelope of the bulb, it will likely punch a tiny hole in the glass and let the gas out (or in, or whatever). I've ruined many glow-discharge tubes by this method.

But just lighting up the bulbs is way simpler, with the properly-tuned power plant. If your coil is truly broadcasting the power in the way that Tesla intended (I think...) you should see no corona at all and there should be no sparks to the bulb(s). My primary spark gap is closed almost all the way for this picture.

Like this: (an old photo; I'd do a new one but the coil is out of my hands right now)

Wow!  I havent managed to explode any bulbs yet - probably get me in a bit of trouble with the missus.  And my spark gap is about 5mm open.  I made the coil with the intention of increasing the streamer length, though I agree 100% that this wasnt what Tesla intended - Just a fun toy!  The streamers are just wasted energy. 
I'll try shortening the spark gap over the next few days, and playing with the length of the primary coil - just to see what results i get concerning the lamps.  I'll see if i can get rid of the corona, and light as many bulbs as possible....Wish me luck!
In a week or so I'll pick up a video-recorder and show you what I mean about the after glow of the lamps after being in the vicinity of my coil. 

Do you think, then, that a properly constructed coil demonstrates OU because the output power involved in lighting the bulbs exceeds the input power to the coil?  Have you tried building receiver coils to tap this OU???

Thanks again guys, for all your inspiration
