Hi Guys,
I posted a new generator design I have made.
It is one of the best I have done to date and believe it has the potential to get over the line no worries.
It's a basic concept of separating charges, using them in an oscillator circuit and not letting them recombine.
I haven't worked on the transformer too much but I have a design of using an external capacitor bank to induce a current in a air core transformer.
I know it's costing me 8 watts to run , my calculator says it's output is 40w I could be a zero out. Most importantly it doesn't slow down when outputting which what took me by surprise when I first got it running.
I am making a version with 10+ times more output and have been experimenting to get best method of manufacture and have been posting the how to build videos and instructions..
I would really like some help with increasing my dielectric value to help lower the voltage, otherwise It's pretty good.

Hello
do you know this site? Maybe you can use it to increase the output power?

Thanks I will use some of their ideas.
My generator is discharging 100 times per second where the Whimshurst is only discharging once every x amounts of seconds. The attenuation of the wire plays havoc as the hertz increases.
The dielectric is the main aspect I'm trying to improve and I am hoping there are people out there that have done work on making a good one preferably paint on.
A good dielectric could increase my output multi fold which is my biggest hope.
I have noticed distilled water and radiator fluid have good properties and might be a good alternative.
Im using Boston spray paint ATM tried stick on laminate but it got worse then the paint.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks Raef
