I got my LC meter today. ooo cool.
I have not had time to measure everything yet... I was having a time with youtube
not letting me post a reply on my own video page.
Sill not, but jdc saw it and he was the first to ask for the schematic, so fine.

@jeanna
Your Stubblefield mentionings brought to my mind:  Energetic Forums has a Renewable Energy Forum with a Earth Battery SG thread.  The earth battery has an air core coil set and a transistor that charges 2 batteries in a hand-drawn diagram on the page.

This seems to me to be simpler and easier to comprehend.  I always liked simplicity.  I'll try to get to a better computer to upload the 'Web address later.

Later Re-edit:

What do you think?

@ DonL:

Thanks man.

@ Jeanna:

Thank you.  I just used a bandanna wrapped around my head and lashed the cam to my head with it.  I was going to use wood screws but I thought it might hurt, ha ha.

hello everyone

nice videoes jeanna !!

i have been packing and uncovering tresures .... lol 

so i found some big O  i had from when i built the IST CORK SCREW  unit ...  4 channel ..  any how i refound it .. 

cut 3 ribs off it and wound 2 coils on it like newman style but i was thinking of jt'int the 2 4" aircore coils ...    then i could do a few things with it  like put my inductor cap ring inside of it .. 

i used 28 gage 150 turns x2

ist



being that there is no iron in this ring feroite or anything like that it will set up an external feild ..  that will be expanding and on the colpase it will be contracting ... so  this is actually almost free if you use it as a jt ... i think just bringing a inductor close to the changeing electro magnetic feild ....  will cause engery to flow in the inductor winding ..

as the old formula says the closer the windings on the bobbon meaning the witdth of the electro  coil  the stronger the magnetics produced .. so if i used really fine wire and mannnnny turns ..  i could make a really strong feild from a really week source ...

then its only a speed thing ...

here is a pic of a cheeply made coil

wouldnt it be kool if the coil showen could repell even a really week magnetic feild ...  like mac's breaking coil ... 

where you cancel the flux from the magnet then open the switch it flows to the steel really fast .. then it closes agin ... if you get what i mean .... 

if we could get it to do this there is no need for an input of electricty ..  just a magnet 

you would want it to operate just like a jt ..  but harvest the moveing flux from a magnet ..

i have not done it with this coil as i just built it but if you place the magnet in the right place it will want to repell the coil when the coil is shorted ..  then if you dont short the coil it will move through the coil easly ..

hummmmm

ist


even if you did have to pay for a transistor to turn it off and on .. really fast ...  lol  i bet it wont cost u much ...

i think you want to ballance the gausses of the magnet with equal gausses of electro magnet ..

even if you had to power the coil a tiny bit im sure it would be ok    you could even make it into a verry nice neo zapper ... 

just put the neo on a spring from a flashlight let it bounce a little ...    inside the coil ... lol
