Hi EMdevices

Refering to your pictures, the output voltage is not sinusoidal so your formula Pout = Vp^2 / 2*R can't be applied. You must use a true RMS power meter before claiming OU.
It is clear that only 24% of extra energy is in the margin of a wrong estimation due to a inaccurate formula.

A NPN transistor can be used with reversed polarity. It is a known fact in electronics. In this case the transistor characteristics such as gain are very different and poor but can be enough for sustaining an oscillation.
Dipoles (negative impedances) or a quadripoles (such transistors) with very weak gain just over 1 can be used to build oscillators.

scale it up a bit...........to qualify for prize must be one watt of usable power.

EM,

Could you give us the number of turns you used on each winding + core type and size if you know it?


Congratulations - Great Work!

on the power calc issue - i think even a sinusoidal waveform needs an RMS factor in the equation, not just dividing the pk-pk by 2 - here in the UK the mains supply volts are nominal 240V RMS = approx 680V pk-pk


on the transistor polarity  issue - i was interested a while back when experimenting with ultra low-power oscillator circuits to find circuit designs which often had transistors connected with reverse polarity


anyway, it's interesting how circuit setup mistakes can sometimes lead to new discoveries, so don't be discouraged if this circuit turns out not to be OU yet

all the best

mine is scaled....  for low power out put or huge power output.....

currently when i break my contact my mot unit will return 1500v on each break i have 4 of thease in my unit so in 1 revalution i have over 6000v returning and the best part i mesure no draw from my source....

im not talking of current flow here this is my primary only ...   my 4 mot unit   the secondaryies are not there yet and are not nessarly needed depending on how you set it up 

the universe is the limit ....  and we aint there yet ...

ist

wate till i switch amparage    then you see the light...   stand up 4 your rite!!

i put in... in 1 of my tests 5 amp @12vdc and i mesured over 20 amp peek upon return ....  needless to say it was more than 12vdc returning...
