Is this correct? If you put all three secondary coils is series it seems like you would get more than 43 volts, so therefore this seems to be a successful way to increase the output voltage.

Great videos all!!! 

MK1  Thanks for posting lidmotor's videos.  I invited him to join us here as well.  I sure hope my shipment comes in soon so I can do more stuff too.  This is great!  A big welcome to all of the new folks.

Wow, do I feel dumb! I just looked back at the schematic I posted today and I realized I didn't put the pickup coil in there and its wires going to the bridge. 

Someone posted something a few pages back about putting a cap in the Earth battery wiring. Can you post a drawing for what you mean by that? I think my Earth battery is on the verge of being able to produce light from an LED. Maybe that would be the little thing that makes it work.

All my toroid core have 4 coils , 2x4 turns (jt coil used to stress the core)and 2x24 turns, so 3 core = 6 pickup coil plus 6 Jt(4t)coils they all give me about 23v, the voltages are the one my modification of your drawing , the added in series or parallel .The same core and coil in a single core jt give me 45 volts , There has to be a way to get to that.

Is your question about the voltage is a closed circuit on the second 4t coils?

1 - 22.3 v
2 - 21.5 v
3 - 25.2 v
4 - 35.9 v(38 turns)
5 - 22.3 v
6 - 23.6 v
