QuoteI have a question to those who have gotten their rotor to speed up under load. What happens when you move those coils completely away from the rotor? Does the rotor slow down or speed up?

The reason I ask this question is because if the rotor slows down when removing the coils, then maybe that is all those coils are used for. Maybe they are only there to add energy into the system by speeding up the rotor and not meant to be used as actual pickup coils. Which would explain why Romero had biasing magnets on certain coils and not others. The ones without the magnets are the ones that converted the kinetic energy into usable electric (-minus the drivers of course). The others were just pushers.

Maybe that pushing effect will only work at a certain speed so you would only be able to draw so much energy before the rotor slowed down out of the frequency of resonance the "pushers" need to work. This is if the rotor slows down after removing the coils. If it speeds up then just disregard this post.

Has anyone else noticed the generating capablities of the "DRIVE" circuit. Simply connect a voltmeter
across the input wires to drive circuit without power and rotate rotor by hand.

Hi Penno,

Do you use the original Romero drive circuit? (bipolar transistor and the diode type of yours please?) If you use a different circuit what it is like?

Absolutely 100% - Even put the 100ohm on the power line to the A1104. and yes Tip42c. 100uf and IN4007.

Personnaly, I would have used the 100ohm between hall output and transistor base.

Hi penno

I have notice that

I have managed to light the 3W led that i have.

I connected it to the INPUT after removing the wires from the battery.And Lenz was also there 

use the same circuit too

@all

The one ohm resistor in series with the coils is ONLY there for taking current measurements and affixing channel A scope where channel B measures the voltage across the coil or capacitor into a short circuit for initial tuning.

Once the tuning completed the  current shunt 1 ohm resistor is REMOVED. But certainly wont cause too many problems to have it there so you can check the waveforms when all the coils  are in place for best tuning but ultimately this is wasting power and need to come out.
