The Master Of Magnetics "Steven Mark"

Hello all,

guys just to show you with what we are working:

as you all, I have 3 oscillators. 2 of them are OK but the 3. is a crap. From this 3. oscillator I have arround 0,1V or a little more output and not at all frequencies.

When I pulse my coils with all my 3 oscillators I can cleary see that my crap oscillator is "working". When I change my frequencies on this crap oscillator I can see my bulb lighting much better or not so good. It depends on the used frequency.

What I will say is that there are UNEXPECTED things going on. You never know what will happen.

@Jason

when you pulse your little transformer with 3 frequencies please, be extremly carefully. I know you are clever but s..t happens. 3 frequencies in a transformer are dangerous!!!!! Dangerous? No, they are a disaster!!!Jason, I dont think you can imagine what can happen!!! But dont mention my family and me when your transformer is in "heaven", ha,ha.

@Grumpy

Im happy when I have 5Vpp because my oscillators are self made, really complicated....cant be destroyd exept with fire or water...

Sorry again for my rusty english.

Otto

PS: more from me at Monday, I have a lot of work to do with my coils.

Hi Otto,

What did you use to make your oscillator circuits with? 555's or some kind of LC tank? What frequencies/ frequency ranges are you working with to get the best results? In your coil test, did you ever hook the negative side of the oscillator circuit to any part of your coil or only the positive part?

God Bless,

Hello Jason,

Im using the 8038 IC, the output of this IC is connected to a LF351 IC and his output to a PNP and NPN pair of BC141/BC161 transistors.

I was NEVER able to burn this transistors not to mention the ICs. Yes, I burned EVERY day 1 or 2 MOSFETs. But as I learned to be a clever guy my MOSFETs are "alive" and Im happy.

I really dont want to discuss the frequencies because they depend on the circumference of your ring. Even a small difference of my ring and yours is a big difference in frequency.
Yes, I have my 2 or 3 favorite frequencies but dont worry, the frequencies are not the problem. When you have the right setup you will see, no problem to find the right frequency.
My oscillators are made for frequencies from 1Hz - 1Mhz. Ok, ok 1MHz is a dream. Why?? With our cheap caps you can NOT have 1MHz!!!
Of course you dont need such a high frequency. A 15" TPU has the highest frequency at 245kHz and a 6" TPU???

All my minuses are connected together: power supply, oscillators, MOSFETs, If I could I would connect myself to the minus. NO MINUS IN THE RINGS; COILS!!!

hi otto

are we still using the diagram thatÃ,  gkÃ,  put on the web.

if so my large 3 pc coil is ready.

is there some one out there that canÃ, pm me a diagram of a controler that i can start to build?

i have learned more in the last 15 minets than in the last 3 months.

Hi Otto,

You say there are no minus connections anywhere on the coil? wouldn't the oscillator circuit still be grounded to the coil if the power supply with the 12V input has its ground connected after the light bulb and the circuit is connected to the same ground??

It sounds like you are headed into the one-wire world with this, which is quite interesting because I have done a few tests where I managed to produce kicks on my collector with only one wire feeding into the control coils!

About the transformer stuff, how do you work that into the TPU/coil setups? are you feeding the kicks into the tpu/coil through a transformer?

God Bless,
