Lookin good Mr T... lets hope the prototype is going to people who are on side.

How long is the center core? please.

Ron

HERE IS WHAT I DID...

1)
TOOK A MOT AND CUT OFF THE PLATE EXPOSING THE "E" CORE.

2)
TOOK THE COILS OFF THE "E" CORE

3)
CUT THE "E" CORE IN HALF (SO NOW I HAVE TWO THIN "E" CORES)

4)
TOOK ONE HALF AND CUT THE OUTER FINGERS OFF THE "E" CORE SO I NOW HAD A "T" SHAPE.

5)
TOOK THE 3" x 1" SQUARE INNER "T" FINGER FOR THE HV COIL.
WOUND IT AND MADE SURE IT WORKED.

6)
MOUNTED THE HV "T" COIL ON THE MOT PLATE SAVED FROM #1 ABOVE.

7)
TOOK THE OTHER HALF OF THE "E" CORE AND CUT OUT THE INNER FINGER SO NOW I HAVE TWO "L" FINGERS.


MOUNTED THE TWO "L" FINGERS ON THE PLATE LIKE SO;     I_I_I   (HV "T" CORE IN THE MIDDLE, "L" CORES OUTER = MODIFIED "E" CORE)

9)
IMPORTANT, THE HV CORE IS TURNED 90 DEGREES AND THE "L" CORES ARE MOUNTED FLUSH UP TO THE HV CENTRE CORE ON THE BACKING PLATE. IT DOESN'T WORK BY TYPING BUT IT GOES...

"L" "T" "L"
BACK PLATE

10)
YOU CAN ALSO MOUNT THE CORE LIKE SO; _I_I_I_    (HV "T" CORE IN THE MIDDLE WITH THE TWO OUTER "L" CORES)

11)
I SEPARATED THE CORES SO THAT I COULD GET A GOOD WORKING HAND WOUND COIL. I FOUND OUT THE HARD WAY THAT IF THE HV COIL IS NOT WOUND TIGHT ENOUGH THEY DON'T WORK WELL.

12)
NOW ONCE I HAD A GOOD WORKING HV COIL WITH THE OUTER "E" FINGERS MOUNTED - I TESTED IT AGAIN AND SHAVED OFF ABOUT 1/16 - 1/8 OF AN INCH OF BOTH OUTER "E" FINGERS TO FOCUS THE COIL'S ACTION ON THE INNER HV CORE WHICH NOW PROTRUDED OUT FARTHER THAN THE OUTER FINGERS.

13)
THEN I WOUND THE HC COIL AROUND THE OUTER "E" FINGERS AND TESTED AGAIN - AND IF REQUIRED SHAVED A LITTLE MORE OFF THE OUTER FINGERS TO ENCOURAGE HC COIL INDUCED FLUX TO HEAD TOWARDS THE CENTRE HV CORE.
(YOU CAN GET THE SAME OVERALL EFFECT BY USING A 100 OHM LOAD INSTEAD OF 10 OHM BUT I WANTED TO KEEP THE LOAD THE SAME FOR ALL THE VIDEOS.)

14)
IF THE HC COIL PRODUCED TOO MUCH LENZ DECELERATION WHICH OVERPOWERED THE HV ACCELERATION I KEPT SHAVING OFF THE OUTER "E" FINGER TIPS UNTIL THE HV ACCELERATION WAS PARAMOUNT.

SO TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION THE CENTRE CORE IS 3" BUT IT WILL DEPEND ON THE MOT USED.

I_QUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW...?

CALIFORNIA DUDE... WHO'S SIDE ARE YOU ON?

5)
TOOK THE 3" x 1" SQUARE INNER "T" FINGER FOR THE HV COIL.
WOUND IT AND MADE SURE IT WORKED.

Thanks Thane.
Happy New Year to you.
Very impressive video and results. Thanks for posting.
Your directions are very clear and now I am getting a clearer idea of how this is constructed.
Can you give us an idea of the gauge of wire and number of turns used for the HV coil.
Thanks.

Dear Thane,

  Could you post complete electrical circuit drawing?
 
  Also do you convert HC coil output to DC?

Thane next time take pictures as you go building the coils. My brain got all twisted reading the textual instructions alone.
