Is this the first selfrunning overunity motor w/o batteries ? Mike?s motor

"Someone tell me i am mad and to shut up please"     I wouldn't tell you that  But you definately confused me with all those colors, wires, and where they go

Peter,

Yes, it looks like the leads are reversed on the breadboard in the two photos, while the order on the strip is the same.

However, remember that one pic was taken when Mike was only testing off the battery, and perhaps charging the cap separately from L3.

As long as L1 and L2 are in phase, this configuration works fine. It is not until you run the thing only off the cap that all 3 coils must be in phase, and Mike wouldn't have been aware of the reversal until he went to get all 3 coils working together.

Mike even mentioned that he accidently reversed one of the coils.

Hi Darren,
I wasnt sure if it would make a difference, the problem is we are all copying the Main picture, but the film circuit is slightly different, hope i am not annoying anyone just trying to pull the whole thing apart and see if i can find anything thats been missed.
Heres me coil.

another observation as well, i see the Hall sensor is not screened from the effects of the coil, not sure how close it has to be before it picks up and gets triggered by the main coil pulse.

No annoyance at all Peter. I'm the same way.

Nice job on the coil. How did you get tape around the split areas?
