WRONG.  People have a life, it's summer, and a lot of people are still rounding up parts or trying many options in tuning between their jobs and other responsibilities.  There's an ebb and flow to activity with this.  Come back in a few weeks or so when it's over 300 pages.

Its not summer for me.

Winter here at the moment.  cold and nothing to do but stay in the workshop.

Yep I forget we have Aussie's here.  Putting Rod on the 'No excuses list'.  We expect to see all 9 coil circuits done by Saturday....
   Just razzing you - keep up the good work and look forward to where you are going with your setup. 

Question on how I hooked up RomeroUK generator in boost configuration to overcome limitations of only 1 coil/pair generator set.
Quick and dirty of how I did it.

gotoluc,  I beleive Romero said he gave that a brief try initially and either blew up some coils or almost fried some.
Layman interpretation of what bolt said:
More power out than in looped = more power out = more power in = more power out = more power in = POOF  followed by magic smoke display   

... I like this explanation best.

Thanks for sharing

I am collecting parts here still, too. Can't afford the plexiglass, so will have to go with MDF, though I can cobble up a 4 layer laminate for the rotor out of plexiglass that I do have and cut that out on the table saw. I just am not sure what is the best glue for laminating that...it can't fly apart obviously.

Have ferrite cores which I still have to cut to length (7mm diameter not 6mm though, will scale length up a bit accordingly from the original 15mm to 17.5 I guess), Litz, 47000 uf BHC, various Neos, gobs of rectifiers and diodes. Instead of bobbins I got some nylon washers, and will use those on the cores as delimiters, since the bobbins get too thin when bored for the 7mm's and it is just too labor intensive to ream them out with scissors or real reamer. Have some hall switches from micro switches, but also have the A3144's on the way.

I have a winding counter which should get me spot on with the coil turns.

Wondering...what would be the electrical and also Lenz results of using a coil like the attached?

AG

I would have to say that is the exact equivalent of Tesla's bi-filer solenoid winding, without the splice (externally) .
