@Ron,

It seems that most people (including me) will not be satisfied with your explanation until a current wave shape is shown. I don't know if you have a current probe, but I do know that a current probe for an oscilloscope can be quiet expensive. I needed one recently for another project and found this site http://scienceshareware.com/how-to-measure-AC-DC-current-with-a-hall-effect-clamp-.htm.

I got the CSLA2CD from digikey and it works great for under $20. You just need to add multiple wire turns to the clamp for low MA work.

Larry, I get a "page not found" for the link. But I have a good idea as to it's
contents. Check out my paper on this subject at Syscom...'application notes'

You are now in a good position though to do this very measurement! I look
forward to seeing your results posted.

Regards,

Ron

Don't understand the site problem, but these should work:

and:

Much easier, circuitry is built in, just add power source and go.

I am not setup to do that test, no high ohm bifilar coil and my rotor is not balanced well enough to safely go above 1600. I still have the old Lee Valley wheel. If I get off my other project, I will try to get setup later.

Don't know if you ever saw this patent from our dearly departed @JH.
It may help open a whole new avenue and take this to a next level.

You can also go up one level and see some photos.

Basically, he takes either two 20 lbs pull magnets and gets 80 lbs pull force or he does it with one magnet and one coil.

So imagine if the 80 lbs pull force will also give you 80 lb repulsion force if the coil is timed to pulse as it leaves a generator core maximizing repulsion spin.

Also may be useful for your transformer builds.
Anyways just another angle.

@Watsup

Nice post there. Even tho off topic but its great additional info everyone could definately use.
"Closed loop" magnetic fields do interesting things. Worth to explore.
