Hi NerzhDisual
Thank You.
I'm glad you like the little "fly-by" video, the quality is not much its the best my little canon A70 will do.
3 minutes of video, and once the light balance and focus are set when you press record, they stay like it until you press stop, not good for moving about. Learnt to use the macro close up to focus. For writing and meters etc and have the longer shots of the wheel slightly out of focus. That was the thinking anyway. ::)

Sharing is the reason I am here. I have been itching to get to the point of presenting some work in my own topic... At last!!!
I have done, and continue to do, lots of reading on this subject and its related 'interactions with text book physics'.
More importantly, how Bedini motors are perceived by the majority. Yourself included.
QuoteI'm looking for a more 'obvious' 'OU' device.
That's why I gave up Bedini energizers (for the moment)
Please... let me explain, and maybe reinvigorate your interest.
I see the Bedini motor as a simple lead acid battery charger ! A type that has some unique properties. Properties that allow it to demonstrate, on a small scale, even more unique properties. Some of which are still being theorized! (I think)
If I, or anyone, learns how to build a Good battery charger, only then can you move on to understanding and maximizing the other unique aspects.
Master the baby steps first, then stride out further.
3 orders of magnitude
1 Bedini/Stubblefield et al.
2 Ed Gray/Moray et al.
3 TESLA
3 regions of the same tree all leading to the root.
The other stigma, I think, that is attached to the Bedini motor, is this....
Your only allowed to use two batteries.
If its not running OU by the time the bearings are run in and its tuned to perfection, then both the batteries are drained from constant cycling and we give up.
I have two fresh out the box 12v 12Ah powersonics sitting on my shelf ready for the Yahoo groups testing but I am not touching those until my plug-in charger and power resistors arrive next week.
But my machine was ready and my lonely little 12v 7Ah was crying out to be charged up. He is the one in the video. Starting voltage 12.15v (I think) ::)
I have been powering it with my bench top power supply 12v 3A basic cheap thing as shown in the video.
I have charged and discharged that little 7Ah 4 times in the last 2 days.
First charge (as shown in the vid.) 9.5 hours to go from 12.15v to 12.54v continued after for a further SIX hours to reach 12.60v. All the time my bench PSU was 12v 150mA for first run. Stopping every hour for voltage test (disconnected) of battery and a little bit of tweeking of gap height and resistance etc Not very scientific I know, but very first test was getting juice in the battery!
Done! :D
Discharged with 240v 40w fridge lamp with a resistance of 122.6 ohms for 47 minutes to bring battery to 12.40v
Second charge (no rest time) 3 hours straight charge disconnected to take voltage and big short (don't use banana plugs and croc clips in your meter ;D lesson learnt!)
A further 2 hours brings battery to 12.63v and lots of tweeking (I am a bit of a tweaker!) PSU started at 150mA and ended at approx.200mA
Discharged with same 240v 40w 122.6ohm lamp, this time for 2 hours to bring battery down to 12.40v
bounced back to 12.42v so discharged for further 10 Min's to bring battery down to 12.40v
bounced back again to 12.42v so discharged for further 10 Min's to bring battery down to 12.40v
Bounced back again to 12.42v (instant)
Third charge! 12.42v to 12.71v 3 hours!!!!!! :D PSU steady 12v 200mA
Discharged for 1 hour with a 150mA 12v computer fan then a further 1.5 hours with a 240mA 12v computer fan bringing battery voltage to 12.20v Underload. Always rising to 12.30v at rest
fourth charge. 12.30v to 12.70v 5 hours. PSU steady 12v 200mA
Battery resting voltage 30 minutes later 12.58v
Will test 12v 7Ah battery voltage again tomorrow and post results.
Initial conclusion2 days ago my 12v 7Ah SLA was limp and lifeless. Today he ran a fan for 2.5 hours ;D
Baby steps!
I honestly think this is the obvious place to start. (For me anyway) Get this working and move on and improve
Keep it real
Above all ... Peace
;)
UPDATE
Battery voltage tested at 10;00am next morning. V=12.49
