RESONANCE EFFECTS FOR EVERYONE TO SHARE

[TinselKoala]

groundloop, thanks for the very clear explanation. It probably accounts for what I'm seeing on my rig:
You may note that in my last video above, I don't have the DMM in the circuit. But just now I put it in, monitoring the voltage on the _input_ capacitor as usual. (BTW I put an additional 100 mfd electrolytic and a 0.5 mfd ceramic cap  across the bridge input as groundloop suggested). This reading is usually quite stable and agrees with a DC measurement of the battery voltage unloaded, when the output is also unloaded.
So it indicates +22.6 volts at the present state of charge of my LiPos.
Now, when I have that little air/mica variable tuned just right and the LED flares up brilliantly, the voltage indicated on that meter goes to a very stable -59.6 volts. That's minus fifty-nine point six volts. And when I go off the exact resonance freq, either by detuning the signal generator or the variable cap, the meter returns to the normal +22.6 volts.
I'm really surprised that it does this, considering all the capacitance I've got in parallel there. I don't know if the DMM is just confused, as predicted earlier by groundloop and Stefan (and me, and probably everybody else too), and I don't know if the analog meter will also behave this way. That's for this evening's experiment, I guess.

(Oh and btw I discovered that I can add a _third_ flat coil to the stack, and light the series bank of three LEDs with a single wire from that coil and my finger, like in the above video...but if I hook _both_ ends of that coil to the LEDs it will not light at all...)

I just got back [several days away working]
I know you thanked me for sending the money [which is in route,in the system]

But I suspect you have another contributer [which you should have many IMO]


I Know this is more of a PM kind of thing BUT!!

Other folks are contributing to your work

I don't know if others are aware [Newer members]

This MAN, LUC Is a hero of this community

He worked for MONTHS with Thane [I think at least four] Winding coils till his fingers blead

FOR NOTHING[at least in dollars]

Also A huge contributer in DR Stillfer's work

And Now working with Groundloop and others TO CHANGE OUR WORLD FOREVER

Merry Christmas .

@Wattsup,

"Man OHHHH Man, You don't know how happy your explanation just made me. This is sooooo great. Finally, I think this circuit is going to be just perfect. In the many threads here, your one explanation should be the basis for any future EE circuits when designing other derivatives. THIS IS THE WAY TO DO IT. Tesla must be so proud. Now I can't wait. I got to have one of these. Santa really did pass early this year. Merry OU to all. Ho Ho Ho."

You are kidding, right?

@Najman100,

The PCBs looks great. You have done a very good job.

Groundloop.

ALSO UNTIL HIS BACK GAVE OUT BUT HE DIDN'T GIVE IN EVEN THEN...
I BASICALLY HAD TO "CARRY" HIM TO THE CAR AT THE END OF EACH DAY.

THE RESPONSES HERE, THE HUMAN CO-LABOR-ATION OF ALL CONCERNED AND THE PACE IS TRUELY "INSPIRED"!

TO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO KNOW WHO INSPIRES LUC AND TO WHOM IT'S DEDICATED...
