Here is the vid, the p2p v on the pu coil gets up to 29v

RMS? What is the RMS watt readings?

Vidar,  who are asking on the RMS watt readings? 

I ask this because simply I converted Jimboot's induced voltage measured by his scope as a peak to peak voltage amplitude and he wrote he was not sure if the p2p voltage was of any significance or not. I simply converted the peak to peak voltage value to RMS voltage value that is all.
The significance of the output voltage manifests when a load is connected across the output and how it relates to the consumed input power then.

You guys seen these motors john Hutchinson has fromi military surplus? They'd turn my osier motor ou not a problem. They seem to have very little resistance when he turns them by hand http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DX25yvRMiyY&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Yes, you're right. A load is important to make any conclusions. RMS readings will however tell more about the actual average voltage. In the 230 or 115V AC grid, there is a peak of 325 or 163V, but the effective voltage is 230 or 115V. If you have a voltage peak at 100V, lasting for 1mS at 50Hz cycle, you have an RMS voltage of only 5V. Lets say you have a peak of 10 amps too on the load. The peak will read 1kW, but the RMS readings will be only 1W. So I guess it IS important to consider the RMS readings too. Also phase relationship between current and voltage in a reactive load (Containing capacitors, and inductors) will be an important factor also.
