170 watts in - 1600 watts out - looped - Very impressive build and video

Search of the switching frequency:

Hi cheors.
Thanks for sharing your calculations.

When we state the 'delay' function, actually we set the 'on' time of a pin output. So the corresponded frequency is not 1/delay, but 1\(2*delay) instead.

- I think we do not have the exact program:
* The instruction map of Luc is different from the one that is broadcast by Pierre on Youtube.
* We never see all the LEDs off contrary to what is expected with the Youtube version.

Sir
When you say "the instruction map from Luc"

you are referring to the "Code" which Pierre sent Luc [and he shared here??] is different than the "code" presented by Pierre in his recent Vid ?

and the Pierre presented You tube Code does not match what we should see in his demonstration?


sorry for the intrusion,
Respectfully

If you do not need the pot, but only a fixed switch time, i would suggest this:

arne,
.est ce vraiment un champ rotative ? ne peut-il pas s'agir d'un champ vibratoire ? 
EN:
Is it really a rotating field? can not it be a vibratory field?

Your quote: I think thats the core question. A stepping stumbling field contra a smooth floting field as a real moving magnet. I think thats the differece between my 13% output power, or some more, contra Over Unity ! As Pierre says: If you only rotates a magnetic field, you will not get much voltage (power?) Something is missing.


FR/ Votre citation: Je pense que c'est la question centrale. Un trébuchement progressif contre un champ de flottation lisse comme un aimant mobile réel. Je pense que c'est la différence entre ma puissance de sortie de 13%, ou un peu plus, à propos de l'unité ! Si Pierre dit:  Si vous ne faites que tourner un champ magnétique, vous n'obtenez pas beaucoup de tension (courant?) Quelque chose manque.

Cordialement, Regards Arne

When we state the 'delay' function, actually we set the 'on' time of a pin output. So the corresponded frequency is not 1/delay, but 1\(2*delay) instead.

The same delay after each switch on or switch off set of instructions :

"digitalWrite(2,HIGH), digitalWrite(14,HIGH), digitalWrite(26,HIGH); // turn the LEDs on
  delay(x);  // wait x milliseconds
  digitalWrite(1,LOW),  digitalWrite(13,LOW),  digitalWrite(25,LOW);  // turn the LEDs off
  delay(x);  // wait x milliseconds  "
