One magnet no bearing Bedini motor

@Gadget.Hi Al.You are definatly in the groove with this one.The lowest i can sustain rotation with a snake egg is 1.34v at 4mA and that was on a watch battery so you have worked some magic on this as 1mA  is amazing and i can only think it is down to your coil as it is radically different as Xenomorph mentioned to what we are using.
I can run the cylinder magnets on less than 4mA so they are more economical on my setup than the snake egg so if this is the same for you it may go under 1mA.
I was wondering if you have any snake eggs which stand completly upright as i found that the vertical spinners were more efficient than the "X" spinner so you may find further savings there.
I like what you are doing with this Al and if you can use some of your JT tricks to optimise the circuit,it would be great.Many thanks jonny.
@Synchro.Hi.Glad you made it over here.It must be frustrating for you to be such a big part of this project but not have access to you workshop.
Your questions and idea's are most welcome and we can't wait to see your first spinner.Regards jonny

I have three sets coming from harbor freight . not yet . one of the two i have will not even wobble . that was the first one i was messing with and all most gave up and just happened to change magnets and get the right resistance . After i did i put the second pot back on and then hooked My amp meter up . I Think the best way to measure current is with a one ohm resistor in series with your battery then you can measure the circuit without putting your meter in series and just across the resistor . the first measurement i did was in series . Its the same .

@Gadgetmall.Hi Al.I have found also that no two snake eggs are the same.I have some which refuse to spin on low volts also so it really is a lottery with these.With your three sets you may get a vertical spinner but if you don't,let me know and i will send you some.Regards jonny
P.S If you get the chance Al,pop over to the energetic forum as there is also a thread on this motor over there and i am sure everyone there will be interested in your experiments.Many thanks Jonny

@all . i know you all will not believe this but i have got that unit to selfchagre and run feeding back the secondary to the primary and the primary is climbing .I kid you not . This  is the third self running bedini it looks like . Ok i ditched th e2.6 volts this morning and hooked up the 6 volt sla battery as the primary and 2.6 volt as the secondary . the 6 volt was a bad battery and read 5.99 volts . I decided to try My feedback method that works on My other 48 volt fan bedini . the only modification i did was remove the secondary batter install an sk3606 in series with one secondary wire the one that comes from the positive off the secondary cap and anode of the diode and fed it thru the sk3606 to positive where the run connection is . now the primary battery is reading 6.52 and climbing as it is running the egg. WOW . i'lll let you know more later after  9 est as i have to take my daughter to bible school .I had to do a wuick test before i go . i stopped the magnet and the volts are reading 5.38 just as soon as i start the magnet it jumps to over 6.65 and then settled to 6.52 -6.53 Amazing stuff.

Congratulations @gadget!

My self charger quit on me by burning the diodes the first time and by burning the coil this time.
I have to check which connection wire is at fault (the base or the collector wire) by unwinding the bar ferrite coil and when I find out the guilty wire it will be rewired three times the original amount of turns.
