Just another Don Smith thread

DONT BE A Theorizer.
Theorizer-------- are like High Voltage. A lot hot Air with no Power behind but they are the dead of
applied Work and Ideas.
APPLY THE IDEA AND SEE THE DIFFERENCE!
BE PRACTICAL

TRY DOING !

Phh, you clown, i am totally surrounded by components, wire, builds...

YOU on the other hand are just spewing hot air without substance.

Maybe....

Let's just try to answer one question about this device from Don Smith?

1) the first capacitor on the input side
Cap 4000 volts DC and 0.1 micro farads ?
According to many peoples that capacitor is powered by high voltage unit 9000 volts and 30 kHz?
That capacitor should smoke in less than second? According to standard wisdom!!! Are you blaming Don?

yep.....was anyone paying attention....probably
not....can I blame you....wouldn't matter if I did.....

Hi,
Explanation of Don Smith principle:
We have high Q  transformer. Primary, two secondaries cw and ccw connected in the middle. One secondary has capacitor connected to form resonant tank.
1. What would happen if no capacitor, both cw and ccw secondaries are the same number of winds? Nothing. On both of them the same and opposite emf is induced that cancells each other. Induced B field on secondaries cancels. No load on primary.
2. With capacitor- on secondary forming resonant tank  circuit energy accumulates and voltage rises, and is higher than on secondary without capacitor. Now we have voltage difference between both secondaries, current flows on both secondaries despite  both B fields cancels. 
Clever.

Ok,
You have good result with this setup? Or it's just a nice theory?
When the load change, how can we tune it? By variable capacitor?
Well, I have alternative interpretation based on work.
Good luck!
