jason,

think about three collector coils, three toroids in each coil, "three in parallel, 2 in series and 1 in parallel."   seems like alot of prime numbers to me. all that add to 5, 6, 8,or nine.  make fun if you want.

...you all wait untill you see the results of the succer below.
just bougt it like that it wasnt even expensive  
didnt even need to coil cause its a 100 meter all in.

Congratulation Marco, you've bought yourself a nice electric fence! 

At this point, let me please offer a few thoughts about wire.

First, if we look at Tao's CAD rendering of the coils which, may I reming everyone, has been confirmed as being accurate, we see that it says:

"Control wiring vertically wound in several segments around each of the horizontal collector coils."

And also:

"Other control wires are wound around all of the horizontal collector coils together."

Now, how many segments does it take to make "several segments"? Certainly at least 2. Some may say 3. Personally, I would say 4. In any cases, considering the 3 collector coils and the segments "around all of the horizontal collector coils together", we're talking between 11 and 19 coils minimum. My guess is 20.

O.K., now if we look at the engineer report dated September 29, 1997 (Michael Fennell, Consulting Engineer), it says that the device tested weighted 12 ounces. Think about this: 12 ounces -> 12 coils +, this isn't much weight per coil.

Also, from the pictures that we have seen so far from what I call the Aligned Winding Architecture TPU, and what Dave call the "open" model, and also from the other quote on Tao's drawing that says: "horizontal collector coils of multi strand copper wire", most of the TPU windings seem to be made from  multi strand wire.

Therefore, what we have here, it seems to me, is a device made of several relatively short coils of multi-strand wire.   

Just a thought!

Jacob

Hi everybody,

It seems that the number of posts grows faster than one can respond to a message -:) This is good.
I wanted to notice about recent (last) Mannix message, if you can call it recent with the number of responses after it. The images presented by Mannix are nothing new. Even this is a really interesting set up but you might want to look at ?The HOOPER-MONSTEIN Experiment? in http://jnaudin.free.fr/html/hoopmnst.htm . Such a set up can generate a double voltage in the output coil and as a result increase output energy by 4 times. I did perform Mannix experiment a long time ago (about 2 years ago) but never paid attention to the voltage. I was actually looking for something else. Going to do it again. I have also done powering input coils by the pulsed current and didn?t notice anything unusual, maybe my set up was wrong. My old set up was used for inducing the power from one bifilar coil into another. But for this, you need to wind the coil in four wires instead of three. The output power was very low because of the close proximity of the bifilar coils wires but it was enough to light a led and the load didn?t affect the source whatsoever. The level of noise was below 0.0001 volt. Also, the output current was behaving very strange, to say at least, when it was used to create a resonance in another coil. I am going to test it by powering input coils with pulsed current again (with some new stuff in mind) and if anything interesting, will post it here.

Kames.

Hi Jacob,
I will add the coil specs on page 420 to the design document that I had posted about earlier.

Hello giantkiller,

You're doing a great job trying to summarize what has been achieved every once and awhile.

By the way, what's in the name?
