Power ratio over one

@HG

Just a quick note to tell you that you have given a good disclosure with videos, photos with numbered items , materials list, how to tune section, and more. Just a great disclosure that I think will interest many here to do a build. I will also look into ordering some more wire to try it out. On a scale from 1 to 10 for replication difficulty, I would give this a 4 or 5.

You are missing one thing though and it is MAJOR. A name. You need to call it something and I would recommend two words of one syllable each, like, Power Cradle, Energy Rocker, Juice Swing, etc.

I am already wondering about many variations, like taking a standard DC motor and cutting the rotor in half to let is swing inside the stator, back and forth. Like I said, this tech will give some offshoots.

Gotta run.

OFF TOPIC for Stefan.

One the Steven Mark's TPU thread, we cannot go to page 19. Page 18 goes well. When you post, you can and you see the posts of page 19, but there is no page 19, just a blank page. Hope it's nothing major.

This is serious 

Do  you realise that you have violated the 3rd law of foolishness?

As  one of the  most well known  skepitcs on this  site I feel it is my  duty  to remind  you  of the laws of foolishness .


#1   ALL  skepitcs   are kind   helpful   and thoughtful people.   We only  insult  your intelligence  for your own  good . 


#2  No law of   physics  can ever be  bent  broken or even  twisted .......they are LAWS .
If you  jump out of a perfectly good  airplane at 10,000 feet   you  are going to die .   
The law of gravity  doesn't stop for  anyone.   
Parashoots are a myth  created by  someone that wanted to see how many  people he could get to jump  out of perfectly good   airplanes .


#3   Everything must be names and quantified .
With out names  we can do nothing. 
How can we compare apples to apples and  oranges to oranges if apples and oarnges don't have names?
I know  that apples  and oranges seem to look different, but with out  propper names  the differences are meaningless



I hope that this has been a helpfull refreasher

While I am at it .........don't forget the   Skeptical theory  of relativity.

S= M x E2

Skeptic = Mass times  Ego squared



   

Have a  nice day

18.   Installing the permanent magnets (#11) over the  coils (#15,16,17)
Space the hex nuts (#13) and fender washers (#5) at least 4-1/2? apart. Tape the fender washers (#5) to the axle(#3).  Place one of the magnets (#11) between the fender washers (#5). The axle (#3) should be in the middle of the magnet (#11). If you value your digests wear leather work gloves to set the second magnet (#11) in line with the first. Use 4 nuts (#13) as spacers, two above and two below the axle (#3). Un tape the fender washers (#5). Adjust the magnets (#11) to the centers of the coils (#15, 16, and 17). Do the driver coil (#15) first, then the other two. Snug the hex nuts (#13) up with your fingers. This is where it gets tricky! I use a 3? crescent wrench, but an open-end wrench will do. The trick is to approach the nuts (#13) longitudinally along the axle (#3). If you do not, the magnet will snatch the wrench, and it is quite the struggle to get it off! Whichever pole is facing you, make sure the others match. Use a compass.

I am assuming that  the north and south  poles of your magnets  are on the  flat  sides
From what I have seen it is kind of hard  finding  large bar magnets that  have the poles on the ends

By making them all the same  do you mean that all magnets have the same pole  up?   either north  or south .
That  would make them  stick together  with the axle  in the middle




Do you have any ideas on if a smaller  version of this would  work ?

I have been getting ready   to start my own project .     I can't  spend  alot on  other  projects right now .........but I do have some magnets and  wire.

Hay Gary:
Yes, the poles are on the faces. Yes, the magnets stick to the axle. Yes, I have a smaller version!
The first video shows just the primary device. The second video shows a smaller secondary device.
In the secondary device, you will notice the magnets are 2? long, ?? thick and 1? wide. The output coil weighs about 2-1/2 to 3 lbs... While I was waiting for my order of the larger magnets, I built the bigger coils. I just happened to use the larger driver coil with the 2? magnets, to see what would happen. It worked great, so I Put the larger (4? opening) output coils under the 2? magnets. That wasn?t so great. I built a second larger (4?opening) driver coil and use that with the secondary unit.
I started with large (200 or more turns) driver coils, and found that it didn?t work as well. The less turns on the driver coil the better. If you make about 140 wraps on the driver coil that will work fine. I have a suspicion that a heaver gauge wire for the driver coil and fewer turns would be an improvement.
If you have any questions, please ask, I?d be happy to answer them.
