STEORN DEMO LIVE & STREAM in Dublin, December 15th, 10 AM

Looking at Callanan toroid core "L8" ferrite material info it shows an Initial Permeability of 1500 +-20%.  If I understand correctly, using a material with a lower Permeability would allow for saturation with even lower amp turns, ie. less coil windings (easier to build) and consuming less power.  Is this correct?

I've found ferrite materials with Permeability as low as 20.  Is there a downside to using toroidal ferrite cores with such low Permeability?

Which means rotor does have some kind of effect on the input.

Of course it does!

Simplest experimental proof: you can take the closest toroidal power transformer you find around, put a magnet on it at see the effects. First effect is that even without a load on secondary, the toroid starts getting hot quickly; of course you can see the transformer is taking now measurable power from mains, although not loaded. Explanations for that in my former posts. Humming, as in JLN’s movie, is another confirmation I didn’t preached crap…

Have you a link for where you got this info ?

@Bruce_TPU,

The solid state Orbo produces high voltage at low amperage in the generator coil.
So I need to make a impedance match or step down transformer to be able
to use that power for something. But the method works! The unit DOES produce
output power in the generator coil.

In my motor test with magnets on the toroid,
the RPM did go dramatically UP and the input usage went DOWN.
I have no video but it is easy to test for everyone by themselves.

@plengo,

See above. I have not tested much yet. Did want my motor to run first.
Will be testing more soon.

Alex.

Possible source for ferrite cores with much lower Permeability:

So, does using a lower Permeability ferrite core material have any potential negative effects for an eOrbo set up?
