Well, from our reading it turns out that either the iron or the copper can be insulated with cotton.  Your results appear to disprove the completely galvanic idea.  I am sorry, I did not realize that this was what you were trying to do.

Nice going.  And, if you test for continuity I am sure you will see no connections.  Very well done.

Isolation with cotton does not at all disprove the completely galvanic idea. Let him do it with plastic-insulated wire and see what happens.

PS - 30 mins later and I get a reading of .505V when I first connect my digital meter.

8 hours later - just 6mV - down from .505V - practically dead from drying out.

Wet:
Inductance: steel 518.9uH, copper 493.4uH

Dry:
Inductance: steel 463.0uH, copper 451.3uH

A little difference as expected.

He did.  He used mag wire for the copper which is plastic coated.

BTW I don't think Bill was referring to the Stubblefield construct when he recommended getting rid of coating.

The patent says to insulate the copper wire.

I only used the cotton to insulate the ferrite core rod.

Enamel insulation that I used with my magnetic wire is as good as plastic insulation.  It is recommended to use enamel insulated wire on coils to allow for more turns being the insulation is thinner.  I don't have to repeat this test with plastic insulated copper wire.

PS - I can't find my compass so I can't test the magnet capabilities at this time.

Hello DonL.  Thanks for the explanation here.  I would love to know if you'll increase the turns and how that changes the general efficiency.  ALSO.  Are you planning to build the rotor?

Kindest regards,
Rosemary
