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

[Dingus Mungus]

Well I watched the video and when SM measures it with a tape measure I wrote it down.

Oh... I was hoping you meant the overall dimensions...
(ex. coils, number of turns, gage, et al)

I'm still psyched!

Dingus,

It has been wound with multiple coils with can be run in series, parallel, bifilar, non-inductive mode, linked as opposites, etc.  It is so I can try all the different ideas I have without having to wind specific TPUs, I can just re-configure the connections between each coils.  This way I can see which works best.

I have now wound up one collector coil from copper multistrand speaker copper wire,around 15 centimeter diameter, about 20 windings thick. Then I wound 3 control coils around it. I am driving it now with ma function generator with square, triangle or sine waves.
I can get maximum power out via putting a 0.47 u F cap parallel with the collector coil, then my resonance frquency is about 17 kHz.
I placed another coil into the center and this is connected in parallel with the driving function generator and at the output I have parallel to the cap an LED , so the LED shines brighter at this resonance frequency when this center coil is parallel connected to the driver coils.

You have to connect this center coil with the right polarity otherwise it will weaken the output. With the Led connected I can clearly see, which connections bring more output power. Without the cap, there is no real resonance and just voltage, but no real power transfer...
In this moment my output voltage looks like square modulated AM carrier... Very strange...
Now I will try to connect a stereo receiver and try noise signals on 2 driver coils and on the 3rd I will use my function generator.
Want to see, what is going on when I mix more frequencies ...

Will post pics and videos later, have only my PDA right now here, no PC right now...
By the way, the control coils capacitively couple already just connected via one wire from the function generator already voltage pulses into the collector coil, but real power transfer needs also the ground wire from the function generator to be connected...

@Dave, nice great new unit, hopefully you have a few fuses integrated, so this thing does not burn up....
Where is Marco and Otto, any updates from them
