Carlos Benitez patent No.17811 circuit drawing self runner

[antimony]

Hi I just wanted to ask quickly if I understand it correctly that the center cylinder from the first patent has a strip that is 90 degrees from the first one, and no more strips becouse I have made all three of them with one center strip around the whole cylinder and then two that are placed 180 degrees from each other.

I hope that I have been clear and you are able to understand what I mean.

Allcanadian: I actually what you proposed I do with stacking wood circles. It took me a while to come up with the same idea, and it turned out great. Thanks for the tip.

All: I am not speaking English as my native language so it has taken me a lot of effort to read Benitez documentation.

What I wonder is if all four of the transformers are interrupter, or just one or two of them?

Hey, I am almost done with my induction coil interrupter that Benitez described in his patents.
I just have some problem with the buzzer, or interrupter that seems very hard to get working properly.

So I wondered if the induction coil could be replaced with a flyback transformer maybe?

Sorry, if it is a stupid question, but I am struggling with getting the interrupter to work, and I would like to start to put it all together soon.

Don't forget about DC vibrator designs that were used when vehicles were 6VDC and radio equipment in cars needed B+ HV. These used a
Vibrator running for a long while at 60Hz Squarewave before eventually wearing out. Once you get a Benitez system that is working and you can make
measurements you should consider using low resistance MOSFET's that you put into the switch circuit to remove the high current flow wear from the mechanical
switch and have it flow through the mosfet instead. You need to make measurements so as you will know that you haven't changed circuit functional behavior
significantly, which is sometimes reported. If you can do that the switch could eventually get replaced by digital logic circuits.

I tried to made an induction spark coil with a mechanical interrupter a couple of months ago, and when i was cleaning my "lab" today i found the  project with the faulty interrupter, and i was reminded with the Carlos Benitez stuff.

Becouse i have had these problems i was thinking that a relay driven ignition coil or other high voltage transformer maybe could be used instead of one of these?

Any thoughts?

Also, i know that Rick Friedrich doesn't have a good name here in our "community", but I saw that he have a sort of lecture video series on Benitez on Youtube and i just wondered if there was anyone that have watched that and what you thought about the information that he put out?
