One magnet no bearing Bedini motor

[xenomorphlabs]

As Gyula has pointed out earlier in this thread by providing helpful links, the pickup-coils need to have a very high turn count, very thin wire, a comparatively big area  and a small coil length to maximize their output.
Just a few turns wont give you a significant output unfortunately.

I have just experimentally concluded that even 2000 turns is not enough ! (depending on what you wanna do of course)

I want to remind people again that Lenz law is in effect when inducing currents in pickup coils and powering something with that current.

@All

Saw this video today which is somewhat relevant as its a no bearing one magnet:

"Fast Motor 150.000RPM no rotor neodimio magnet"

This thing really spins fast using a round neo inside the coil

Yes, I saw that.  That thing is really spinning!  That video is the reason I purchased my 5 different sized neo spheres but, I can't control them once they really start speeding up.  They fly across the room like a bullet.  I think he mentioned he is using 2 coils.  I can't figure out what he meant by that.  Also, I noticed he didn't have to spin it up by hand like we do with our set-ups.  Maybe his second coil helps with that?

Pirate, I've looked at the video several times now and it's very hard to make out because he mentions having two coils (in what configuration we don't know) and also mentions "Similar Bedini" circuit at the end of the video as well as the information section.

The English translation seems a little different than the spanish one....

"150,000 Rpm Motor fast without a rotor made of Neodymium magnet ball 2 reels of 8 mm (as a trigger and as a promoter) and a Bedini circuit similar."

PS: I don't see why one couldn't add a clear plexi at both ends of the air core to prevent the ball from coming out and flying across the room

@ Goat:

Your idea would work with his set-up but on mine, it is just spinning on a flat plate.  Before I glue my plate on, I tried his way inside the coil and it would not spin.  Even with me hand starting it. He must have done something different, I don't know.  I love the sound though.
