@ Altrez,

Nice work JIM!!! I need to time how long I can run one for. Been very busy will other things.

Thankyou Al, it's very appreceiated

I saw your "empty voltage" photos, very nice indeed, have you presented the "empty evidence" to your friend who is coming to your place yet? will this be a surprise for him!!

@Gadget,
Ha ha, I love your dinner tray, did you get a tummy ake later on?
I'll order the same lol.

@Jeanna,
Thankyou very mouch.

@Jim,
That video tells the story. Great!
How many volts does your meter see from your EB?
jeanna

Since I made the video, I put the cap back on EB charge, it's had just over 13hours now.
I just put my DMM across the EB cap and it shows 271.3mV or just over a 1/4 of a volt.

This has given me a huge lift in confidance, now I have achieved something positave, and it wont be long before I should be able to get more out of this very simple setup, but it needs vast improvements before any really usable power is avaliable.

Thanks again Jeanna.

Yea i can give you an example of it . the TPU . mix more than two ac signals and what do you get .
What if you mix 5 or 10 . Undiscovered .

more then 2, humm.
motors, tv set, cable tv, radio waves(including tv broadcast), telephony systems, are just a few i can think of right now.

5 or 10 would still fit motors, tv cable distributions systems, telephony systems and radio waves.
how many channel does your tv can pickup ?
how many radio stations ?
how many frequencies do you think a single radio wave frequency can transport ?

anticipating what you might say about the undiscovered effects of some specific mixes.
how many frequencies are naturaly occuring on earth alone, including thiers harmonics ?
what about those from the sun, the galaxy ?

for me it is clear that mixing frequencies, alone, can't create energy that was not existant in the first place.
it might use existant energy under some specific cases tho.

Anyways . take care . You seem to know it all .

i might seem to know it all to you, but i am not and i am the first to be sorry about that fact.


@Resonanceman
i apologize.

i was forgetting that everyone is perciving the world is own way, base on his education and his environment.
i got upset by what you worte more then i should had.



@jeanna
i often mis-interpret what you are saying at first.
and notice later that i was saying essencialy the same thing as you after a few posts have passed by.

language barrier ? the way you are expressing yourself ?
i don't know but i want to apologies to you too.

@stprue
Thankyou for asking.

I must have missed the video, what page is it on?

Its about 10 - 12 pages back.
About a year ago, Jeanna very kindly made me an icon which I post when I make these tiny videos.
(thank you again Jeanna)

The ICON is pinkish in colour, and about 3/4" x 1" square.
It sits just above 2 tiny paperclips at the bottom of the post.
It looks like the one at the end of this post.

Dont click on the ICON as it is only a dummy flag to make you aware the video is there.

Then after watching the video, which is about 12 seconds long, go to the post ABOVE, there is another video I posted, but because of the limitations (file wise) I had to leave the icon out.

hope this helps

Well I have had a rash of toroids that do absolutely nothing. I can get them to work sometimes but this is too much. I spent way too much on these chokes to have them refuse to turn the transistor on.
@All... help!!!

@Altrez HELP!!!!

I bought 2 small ones of this u=60 and u=125 because they are the same outer dimension as the filter I like so much. I wanted to compare things with the same size and number of turns.

I started with 5 of each for the bifilar primary and this won't even turn on the light. the transistor gets hot and nothing happens.

It means to me there is no turn-on of the transistor but why would that be?
The biggo did the very same thing.

My question to you is how many turns do you use on your primary. Have you found that it takes more than the others you have used?

thanks,

jeanna
