Kapanadze and other FE discussion

We need results now !

Our theme tune for the project / our rally cry!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFDcoX7s6rEr

I intend to kick-off with the build below as shown in Wesley's 'lazy guys' video which suits me down to the ground (excuse the pun). I don't see that the trafo winding voltages are too critical, so I'm sure that most of us benchers can find a suitable one surplus to requirements.

Good evening Hoppy.

I've just glanced at the schematic you've posted and, I hasten to add that I've not watched the video either.

Is that a connection between the earthy Neutral and a domestic water filled radiator, or a high frequency square wave?   

Let's be honest here there's going to be some leakage voltage at 50 HZ  enough to do something.

Cheers Grum.

Evening Grum,

Yes, indeed and there is of course some resistance in the pipework, so a voltage potential between the two earths. The question is, what does the resonant primary winding induce into the load winding.
An interesting statement from Ruslan in Wesley's last post: "So if we do cut the wire, and than, we do connect phase than we will have device working because we share the same common ground . got it!!" Also: "Every professional knows that system works  on 220V ( Europe)." What do you make of that Grum?

Evening Hoppy.

Well,  Why not just put a plug on it ?

I've just noticed the back to back series connected electrolytic capacitors, not being really well up on electronics how or what value will be seen? Would the circuit become series resonant at 50 HZ?

Perhaps another way of reducing domestic electro smog?? Marginally brightening that dimly lit space perhaps?

Cheers Grum.
