Inductive Kicker or Bug?

[innovation_station]

I believe you IST,  you can step the voltage up quite a bit with an inductor, even from an almost depleted 1.2 V AA battery.

thank you !

please anyone that trys this be carefull ! 

it bites bad !

Hi All,

@Otto, There is a digital inverter on the 2nd switch. First switch on 95% to charge main inductor and 5% on Second switch to dump into second inductor.

@EMdevices, This only works with analog switches. Put in a digital or mosfet switching and it doesn't work, you'll get maybe a 17-20v pk which would be normal for a boost. Maybe the sim is calculating transients with mechanical switching(?). The circuit I've been toying with is to charge a multitap inductor in series(mutual inductance) where each tap has a reduced inductance. Switch them down sequentially at high speed in parallel so that the field collapses down to reduced inductance, creating a large output which can be used for water heating. The input would be driven with solar panels (225watts) since that is the closest thing I have to free power when the sun is out.

@IST, This will work with a 30mv seed voltage at a lower output(according to sim) so an AA would have no problem. The analog switching would probably kill any gains though.

i agree unless you have a good cheep way to switch it high speed mechanical .. : )

i may have a method or 2  lol

aswell if you used the rotation to move air and plunked a wind tunnel a top it .. you can grab from the moveing air too ...  maybe a few computer fans ..

i have built and showen public a VERRY LARGE COIL  built like i have explained for a huge pulse motor  infact i built 2 of them  bout 10 lbs each coil ..  i have a verry large axel and bearing set and i have collected many microwave magnets to place on the rotor ..  the mini stack can drive the motor generator  and it will turn a FEW 12VDC ALTONATORS .. as well as all the other methods for generating large volumes of current !

Hi All,

Here is just a simple modification to the last circuit to keep the kicker energized I put in a 10nf cap. Now the sim just shows it go up(and up) over 50KW before it stops.

I will proto this up in the near future, power with a Jule thief, and definately check this out.
