HIGH QUALITY TPU DVD Video Released from Jack Durban

[aleks]

this open TPU does not "appear" to have the typical COLLECTOR wire.

This can have two implications:

1)  We can not see it well enough in the pictures, and so can assume it's there.

The construction of the open TPU implies the collector wire should be on the side invisible on the photo or it would be curved - there are blocks present that keep rings of the TPU together.

@Guys

Let's not see who is right and wrong here. Just throw whatever you can see out there. We put out all the ingredients on the table and do the cooking later. lol

Let's get the tpus identified. I propose the following.

FTPU = First TPU he takes out of his carrying case.
OTPU = Open TPU
SPTU = His smallest round toroid type.
6TPU = His 6" toroid type.
MTPU = The one he cut.
LTPU = The biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig one

On the OPTU it is possible that the four coils are actually the collector. The two coils pulse and send out a mag field that gets concentrated over these coils by the two disks that hold in the field. All you want is a mag movement over some wires. I will take some closer looks.

@EM

Good work there.

On the FTPU, where you point to a capacitor, could this also be an oscillator.

Also the toroid has the same L-bracket metal mounting as the two on the LPTU. This says it is coming either off the self or taken from another equipment.

For some reason I am having trouble grabbing images, but if you look again at the FPTU video, look when he turns the unit over the first time, look between his two thumbs you will see there is a capacitor between the disks. You will see it again when he turns it back over. You need a quick finger on the space bar to stop it in time. lol

You can also see in the center core the white wires going from one disk to the other.

yes, I like this convention.  Let's put all the ingredients on the table

P.S.  Regarding the FTPU,  here's a diagram of what I see, now,  how do we connect it?

here you can see the control coils is two wires.

I think the reed switch/magnet is no more than a switch that looked cooler than a gaudy dangling toggle. Reeds have limited actuations and fail. I doubt Steven would have jeopardized demos over reeds getting close to their MTBF counts. And if magnets were of any value they would be deployed in the large unit.

Another give away regarding the magnet ruse...Listen to the audio in the garage demo of the nicer looking device sitting atop a box. As Steven places the two magnets he says something like " I am now placing the magnets into their "receptors". Receptors?!!! He might as well said "muffler bearings'. Here is a guy who knows enough to build these and uses common vernacular everywhere else in his dissertations then all of a sudden refers to receptacles as receptors. This was the subconscious mind revealing the insignificance of the magnets.

The question regarding the unit that is demonstrated atop the Sony VCR's. It is made out of an empty wire spool. The end caps are plastic and the spindle is tin or steel. The windings appear to be wound independently of the spool end caps and attached as a subassembly.

To improve the video quality someone could simply de-interlace the footage and convert it to progressive. This will take the annoying motion caused jagged edges as the fields interlace.

I can do it tomorrow night if no one has time.
