user TURBO?s replication of Steven Mark?s TPU ?

12v in 130 out! Big ass spikes!

Well, it looks like it may be a happy new year after all.  Congratulations.  Take a deep breath.  Crack open a cold one. 

I know a light bulb video is no proof, but just for your own curiosity did you try to light a bulb; what happened?

Mentioned it previously... I am adding a bigger supply and lowering the ohms by 1/2. Right Now I get .75 amps in some of the jumpers.
This is interesting though, I now get squeals without the nbmags.

Later guys. I gotta crash. I look forward to more insights from you all. This should get faster and faster.

Hello all,
Giantkiller

garden IRON WIRE collectors!!!!

use NO IRON!!!!

Sorry to be an ass about this Giantkiller, I'm just liable to get very excited if you can clearly confirm this.

Are you getting a processional force when you rotate the device?

If so please say 'yes a processional force when I rotate it' so I know for sure it's not just vibration. (which isn't necessarily all that odd)

If so, very very cool, very very freaking cool! and I'll want to replicate what you're doing!

Also is it 'so slight you have doubts it's not just in your imagination' or 'just strong enough to be pretty sure it's really there'?

There are 3 ON steps. Turn on circuit and scope shows no freq, but the magnets align slightly. 8 secs pass the scope line wiggles, then 1 second and freq displays, @ ten seconds the harmonic impacts show up with the hi spikes and the coils sing a glorious tune!

Eight seconds of magnet exposure before anything happens.  I wonder how many here have had something that would have worked, (or still may work,) but they used no magnet or they used a magnet and only waited seven seconds or less.

I recall the video of SM holding, waiting, and moving a magnet, (or something removed from his pocket which I assume to me a magnet,) in and around his coils.  Especially that one larger TPU that was giving him some trouble.  Or perhaps he was trying to chase vampires out of his coils with a clove of garlic. 

@giantkiller:

What happens when you remove the magnet after your "giantkiller-TPU-04a" is up to full speed; does it slow to a stop or does it keep going?

@Otto, I will wind copper, and match my TPU#4 - iron collector specs.

All,
My pwr supply is based on 7805s. Not good enuff. I am going to replace tonight.

Now the meat:
1st: the freqs are a wide range.
@200 - 900hz (low) the ramp up occurs. The spikes per second are fewer and the coil inductance takes time to build up.

@+1khz to 7k (high) the coil squeals immediately. This is probably the mag wire vibrating. But it happens immediately.

Now the Magnets:

In the low range the magnets act like vibration amplifiers due to the already existing strong fields. If I remove the magnets then the vibrations are not as apparent. With the magnets present then the same effects as what are described by SM are there. They are easily felt due to the low occurance per second. I believe this is the set to pursue, for me any way. I believe when I increase the power input I will see a magnification of what I see at this amperage level, naturally greater.

In the high range the magnets can be present or not. They don't cause excitation. TPU#4 just squeals to beat all. Changing frequency in this range causes little effect. Although the more spikes appear the greater level of diode bridging can occur. The power out steps are a natural occurance in this procession.

Now that I am worn out from my own parade I can settle down to the next arena.

I will wind a copper collector TPU#6 as an exact copy of TPU#4 and this will put down any issues about the difference tween CU and FE.

I will test both with higher current.

All I can say is 'Try all the freq ranges'. There are probably different effects all over for all the differences in the TPUs. I saw them.

And my mistake was I only used 1 freq on the top and middle TPU layers and nothing put in to the bottom. I saw the same thing as 2 freqs on top and bottom and 3 freqs for 3 layers. That is why I have always said this thing is sloppy and I will continue to go down that path. I continually run across this aspect.

I think SM placed a magnet on the device to actually demostrate effects.
My effects don't diminish when I turn the device upside down.

Now on the lower freqs:
I felt the vibration quite strongly. At higher current, one could see where the vibrations will be a significant physical feedback mechanism. At that height I could see that there would seem to be a gyroscopic effect. I will plan to differenciate between gyroscopy and magnetic inertia.

Thank you all for this forum. I'll say up front that I appreciate the responses. I didn't get beat up yet. But it could happen. This forum has a history. So now that I have made significant progress and killed off my evil twin I progress as a free man into the future. LOL.

Let's have some fun, shall we? And if these steps don't prove what we are looking for then we have found another step as to how not to make a TPU!

The easiest steps are the small ones.
