Stepping Down a Wimshurst

[wojwrobel]

hello
its get me thinking why not to try to place coil of wire and give it this alternating electric field? maybe its a new way of making electricity? push pull electrons just like magnets does!!! but witout magnetic field!!!

and insted of copper wire we sould use insulated steel wire because i read i many places that steel coil of wire dont create back emf!!! but ohter problem is that is atracted to magnet ....  anyway even if back emf is there what it will affect ? aluminium thin sectors?

i have to give it a try !!!

Hi folks, hi foggynotion, i guess i overlooked somehow the fact you said you were the famous Johnny Cool Pants. What have you been up to, did you see i started a thread in memory of some of your ideas from that other website. Some of those ideas i think have some real practical value, have you built that flash steam setup ever or any of the other ideas. Thanks
peace love light

Again I tried different experiments e.g.: trying to

- connect Wimshurst to Joulethief circuits
- combine it with some possible sheets from Kapanadze circuits
- attach and pulse a magnet in the circuit in hope it would magically amplify the amperage
- use a permanent magnet as core of the transformer coil hoping to amplify the induction with pulsed DC
- check out if one could get enough power via pickup coil by induction only suggested by wojwrobel
- do another test by using "Evert electrostatic generator" with 3 copper plates and 1 rotor
- accomplish electrostatic push- and pull principle, electrostatic motor (works, but quite weak)
- and lastly trying electrolysis with it (with/without transformer/rectifier etc.)

... needless to say... most of them delivering a result which is not worth to mention.

It is still possible to light an LED to 1/3 or half brightness with a basic step down transformer / aircoils, but what's it for use anyways. It has way too less amperage to power anything else. That's it... I'm empty now...

Here is a fundamental method that is described as an electrostatic step down transformer.
This could perhaps have a number of uses, if it works correctly;
