PhysicsProf Steven E. Jones circuit shows 8x overunity ?

Wow what a big picture. Even at 1900 resolution on my TV I have to pan.

There is another aspect to your picture. The toroid appears to be ran differently where windings are concerned. Is that a bifilar winding?

 You need to resize your pics to a maximum of 800 by 600, or the whole post gets too wide to view properly.

Hi Jbigness5:

Yes the coil is definitely bifilar.  Wound it carefull myself, and used different colored 22 ga wire to insure even windings, etc.  The inductance measured much greater than the blue toriod version. Not sure why.  I believe this ferrite has a broad frequency range, based upon manuf. info.

ok it might be wound bifilar but it's connections are definitively not bifilar. there should only be 2 connections to the board. You have 4. I have never really used a split bifilar wind to run these simple systems. The action of a bifilar wind is two fold. One action is shorting the magnetic field to the core by keeping the paths minimal between polarities of your working voltage. This also has an added value of creating an acceleration of the current because of two things. One is odd even channels. Also there is little holding the current back considering that a bifilar has no other resistance other then the wire at that point. There is very little self induction to a bifilar. This one fact allows the acceleration of the current up to the resistance of the wire. Lower the resistance enough by paralleling strands or even the material of the wires and one can see amazing results. Especially when a cap is fired into these!

There are 4 connections yes but only two are supposed to be connected to the outside world or your device. Although I have played with a jewel thief type device I never could get anything substantial out of it. Only when I isolated the main circuit from the source did I see anything amazing. That took a special device called a Captret. I'll leave you to research the captret, it is on this forum.

This split bifilar only shows half of the potential of this wind. The Bifilar is supposed to be the end of one strand connected to the other strands beginning. This is when you will start to see some pretty amazing things happen. If it is not too much trouble try and connect the bifilar wind to the way it should be. This might force you to change the circuit to get the connections right.

Just my two cents,

  Helpful comments; thanks.  I seem to be coming down with something... headache, tired, etc.  Will be back in a day or 2 or 3. 
@Jbignes5  if you can say anything more about the captret, would appreciate.

@all: Thanks again.
