Magnetic Resonance Devices based on Don Smith Concepts

By reversing one of the coils winding direction sine wave goes:    positive-negative-positive    OR     negative-positive-negative.
Both coils in same direction sine wave goes:                               negative-zero(?)-positive     OR     positive-zero(?)-negative
I will make some more pics and post. Btw here is my bench link:

Thanks guys for that link. Pretty interesting. Who made it up?

Just saw your bench Minde..   Very nice also.  ;]
Free caps?  Nice.  ;]   I need caps.  hehe.  Ill get them.

I have been on and off lately( on the bench).  Wish I had more time than I have to fiddle.  Last year I was out of work for near 6 mo. and was on fire with builds. My work really tires me. Corvette restorations. I do all interior( no sewing), electrical and tear down and rebuild, bumpers, lights, a/c heat, windows, door mechs, details, perfection.
But the heat is killin me. Tires me out.

Its getting cooler out(S. FL)

Nice work guys.  ;]

Ill show what im getting into with the toroid this weekend.

Was looking at both of you guys pics again.  Looks like you both have only the first part of the circuit to the secondary caps, and not the second conversion.

So, are you both saying that your not getting output to the secondary caps?

Minde, no spark gap?  NT, are you using the same type of spark device( I have to look them up again) Don used? There were many different ones(spec wise).

Here is latest setup. HV source and large collector caps are removed. I have tried parallel and series spark gaps and 120VDC to 4000VDC voltages.

Once again I must emphasize:  as of yet have never reached any resonance in primary nor in secondary when pulsing device with HV sparks. Also not sure about spark quality.. I dont think it has time to quench.. maybe it does. Not sure.

What diagram did you follow?

Circuit diagram below - I was unaware of any others at the time I built my replication. The picture shows the bottom diode coming from the NST in the wrong direction - in fact you can do without the second diode. That part of the circuit is bog standard Tesla coil primary anyway.

The solid state NST is a 9KV @ 35ma (around 25-30Khz if I remember correctly), though I ran it about 50-70% power via the variac (as per Don's notes).

Incidentally, I tried using a non-solid-state 60hz NST but performance was better with the solid state (presumably because of the higher frequency).

Looks sweet.  ;]

I think that the spark might be a key element.

Don I believe said that the variac adjusted the input to the neon transformer. With a preset spark gap, adjusting the input to the neon trans. will change the NT ouput, of which will set the timing of when the spark happens (freq of spark discharge)

So if this has been done to no success, then next would be to adjust the spark gap to alter the freq range then readjust the variac again.

So if you know what the possible res freq of the LC is, I would experiment on the timing of the spark (variac and spark gap spacing).  Sound good?   ;]
