First electrical power output from a Pyramid

[skywatcher]

you are right with the coils now but I had to change them for the new setup what realy brought something up.

I looked also at earlier pictures of your setup, and there the coils also were both left-handed.
I think this might be of great significance. Think about a transformator... if you wind the coils the wrong way, you won't get any output at all !

Maybe, if you change one of the coils, you would get ten times the output.

Walter,

I know you are still putting the sides on and working on the device but the Rigid table saw, that mass of steel sitting under your pyramid, maybe causing problems also.

Certainly something else to consider...

Encouraging to see the voltage approaching 1V.

here are the latest for today, after one more hour the voltage stands by 0.845V.
tomorrow I wiil change the coils back to the right and will finishe the big original capacitor.

Walter I am wondering how the same setup would charge without pyramid.

Hi,
great work, indeed!
You may want to wait until the capacitor reaches 1.5 volt and then try to drive a LED to see for how long it stays on :-)
And I still think that you should have ALL sides of the pyramid covered with rigips plates.

Season`s Greetings!
