Steven Marks secret

[EMdevices]

I'm being serious when I ask this?

What's the "new" revelation here?

All I see is some circuit attempts at a switching methodology and some talk of hitting the resonance of the transformer and talk of collapses and frequencies.

I guess it doesn't take much to excite you guys.

Yes you can do a lot with resonance and coils and switching,  and it can all be exciting. I get excited too when I light up my Tesla coil, or resonate my ignition coil, but I hope we're clear on one thing, this is not a TPU!   

Let's not pervert what SM discovered just because we can't achieve it !

EM

P.S.  And for Gods sake,  do some reading on switching techniques, if you insist on playing with this stuff (it might save you from blowing MOSFETS left and right):

I have a lot of respect for otto and for Mannix and for anybody who experiments and shows their results, so if you perceive my annoyance know that it is meant to keep in check these naive sentiments that we have discovered the "secret".  This thread is mislabeled for sure.  Another thing, I will not give up until I find and PROVE that I found the secret.  Yes, this is a jungle, so get a good machete and clear your path....

well guys atleast i can say i will post all my discoverys here and won't hold back and talk about how i built the best rig and stick in your face and spam the whole forum saying quit messing with tpu and stuff its all in the tesla blah, blah ,blah...
sorry. to much to drink i think...
i'll post a schematic before i post my ego

out, robbie

Give this a go EM!

Consider the possibility that may be more important than it looks

How to achieve the oscillatory, ringing feedback:
When the fet turns on the magnetic field appears on the bias line.
Then the field appears in the red control,
then the field appears in the blue control.
The 2 control coils are bifilar and wound like a Telsa bifilar pancake.
So the bias gets squeezed by the first control then the secondary squeezes it again.
The collector is biased with the initial field and then echoes the shockwave to the gate in parallel with the incoming pulse.
The control coils go all the way around the ring.
The collector coil is stranded lamp cord. The bifilar control coil is solid 22awg speaker cord. The diameter is 4".
Schematic included. Starting frequency is 4khz. Ending frequency is 1.6MGHZ.

Watch the video and see the effect take hold and continue.

This set up is stable. The results happen every time at about 20 seconds.
It is a good time to be alive.

I see all those TC on youtube and every discharge is connected with secondary. What if there is a way to make discharge free running in air ? is that the answer ?
