Trawoeer Power Pyramid Version 12 - Electrical output from a homemade pyramid

[k4zep]

Hi All,

Hours of adjustments, It does not work on this first attempt inside condo.  Passed low AC voltage test after "charge".  Monitoring VDC across motor.  NO voltage ever seen down to 0.0mv.  Which makes sense across essentially a short circuit unless Pyramid starts working.  Over a strong indication of water but I am 6 stories up.  Will take it outside in a day or two.  Very windy here today, fringe effects of Irene.
Several technical question are unanswered but am very patient have time to sort this out.

Respectfully

@Zhak .Look at my list of safety precautions - Reply number245 on page 17 of this thread .@Ben . We all owe you a debt of gratitude for the time and effort you are putting into this .Hang in there , we all have much faith in you . As you know , TT is in Egypt at the moment . I an not pretending that anyone here knows any more than you do , but until TT returns , why not post your technical questions on here . At least it will give us something to talk about in the meantime , and multiple heads are better than one . Re Erdtaucher . I sent him a PM asking for an update . He is very busy , but promised to email me with some info this weekend . With his permission I will post it here . Our thoughts are with the people of east coast USA during this hurricane .

Hi Neptune,

More than technical questions, more like technical demonstrations from TT:

1.  Demonstrate and show voltage across the motor and current in motor loop at a dead standstill before it is hand spun and as it starts and keeps spinning all in ONE shot.  As he showed that voltage and current are in the loop with his power monitor, this is a simple demonstration and needs to be shown.  No starting and stopping of video, one continuous shot.

Continuing...

2.  Demonstrate by slowly rotating the Pyramid clockwise and counter clockwise 10 degrees off of its N direction and touching nothing else, the voltage and current dropping in the motor loop and loss of operation on a  working pyramid via the same power monitor.  Then moving it back to correct alignment, spin the motor and it restarts operation.  Again all in one continuous shot.

Continuing...

3.  Demonstrate by moving the pyramid gently 3 feet in all directions while running and show the voltage and current drops off and unit ceases to operate via the same power monitor which shows voltage, current and calculates power in watts.  Re-center pyramid, spin motor,
show voltage and current come back up from zero and continued operation.

Continuing...

4.  Demonstrate that moving the reactor off of CENTER in the pyramid, lowers the output of the device as shown on the power monitor, cessation of operation, re-centering and operation with spin up continues.


The power monitor (which shows voltage, current and watts) was shown in one of his videos.......

This sure would answer some questions I have.  As I said before its not what he has shown, but what he did not show.  In this case, 15 min of video would be worth a million words.
This is a hell of a hot time for Thomas to visit Egypt......whew!

Made some precautions for the transformer

Thanks neptune, for clarification and caution.
Much has translate through an interpreter, some sentences difficult to understand.
I would like a hundred times to recheck
