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

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 poor translation:

Differences: x = map(y,0,1000,1,10); ( Youtube)  and x = map(y,0,1000,1,100); (Luc)

Pierre youtube last lines :
"
digitalWrite(10,LOW),  digitalWrite(22,LOW),  digitalWrite(34,LOW);     // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
  delay(x);              // wait for a second
  digitalWrite(12,HIGH), digitalWrite(24,HIGH), digitalWrite(36,HIGH); // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
  delay(x);              // wait for a second
  digitalWrite(11,LOW),  digitalWrite(23,LOW),  digitalWrite(35,LOW);     // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
  delay(x);              // wait for a second
  digitalWrite(12,LOW), digitalWrite(24,LOW), digitalWrite(36,LOW); // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
  delay(x);              // wait for a second"

As you can see all ouputs are switched to low state for x mSeconds.
We should not see any blue or /and red  LEDS at the end of each program loop

Cherryman's sketch compiled and uploaded fine but did not result in any flashing lights. I think I finally figured out what was wrong, and I applied a couple of corrections and now I get flashing lights as intended. I think. And I re-inserted the option for potentiometer speed control.

My corrections/insertions are highlighted below:

everybody here is so clever, genius....hmm
so let me ask you something...
what are you looking for ?
what are the "properties" of ordinary generator (a "definition" of property may useful)?
what we  want to eliminate from such ordinary generator (this should be simple question now,right )?
now,how generator can be simulated ^FULLY keeping properties ?[/size]


so,it's quite simple but you are asking wrong questions
(no, I didn't said it is easy to make - it obvious when you ask correct question)
(no, I don't know HOW Pierre was able to do it, but... keep in mind above. Someone could not know the answer, but knowing what to look for is enough to find answer if properly motivated... but if someone don't know the correct question - he is lost no matter how pretty is replication how big tools and how much money he has)

[TinselKoala]

The "correct question" is for someone to get it together to perform a real test of _Pierre's_ original apparatus and self-running claim. If that claim turns out to be false or somehow misunderstood... then why are we wasting our time (and money) at all? If the claim DOES turn out to be true, then even if Pierre doesn't want to share the secret, it will be worthwhile for us to continue because we will eventually find it. As long as it actually exists, that is. But why look for a needle in a haystack unless you know the needle is actually in there somewhere?

It is a bug that has already been mentioned. Coils 12,24,36 have to be set 'OFF' at the begin of the sketch right after the lines which set the 1,13,25 to 'ON'. So

1,13,25 ON
12,24,36 OFF
2,14,26 ON
1,13,25 OFF
...etc
