STEORN DEMO LIVE & STREAM in Dublin, December 15th, 10 AM

[captainpecan]

Is anyone set to record Steorns presentation Saturday?  I'm a bit confused on the time zone difference and daylight savings time, and all that jaz.  To be be honest I'm not exactly sure when it is going to start, and I don't want to miss any of it.  Last time I tried to capture it with some software I downloaded like others did, but it did not work out at all for me.  Luckily someone else nabbed it.

Very good and interesting read.  Although it almost appears as you are upset with John Bedini.  I must say it may be looked upon better by others if it was not so much looking down as Johns SSG work, and simply compared as being much better and why.  But, that's of course the view from a big Bedini fan such as myself.  None the less, it is a very good read, and there is certainly original content there!  Looks like I'm also an Ossie fan now, lol...  Great work!

On the side note.  Your pulse motor in your latest video.  Could you give us some details on how it has performed over the last few days?  I know we need to watch how far we drift from the Orbo content in this thread, especially as we approach their big OU proof day tomarrow morning.  But I've replicated your pulse motor pretty well, and I would like a bit more info to compare my results to.  As of yet, the voltage is still dropping on my AA battery, but EXTREMELY slowly.  So I am close, but I am fine tuning the reeds only by hooking in led's and visualizing the on time as I move the rotor past the coil. I simply still have not been able to obtain an oscilloscope, but tax return will most likely be getting me a good old used one online real soon.  My big question though is this.  Are you pulsing on the approach and attracting the magnet into the coil, or are you pulsing it as it leaves with a push?  I'm not sure it even matters, I'm just trying to replicate as closely as possible before I start throwing in my own twists and stuff.

Hi CP,

- My motor and any replication motor can run indefinitely once tuned correctly and the coils have enough turns for the magnet strength and RPM such that the generator voltage is equal to the battery voltage.

- Whether you pulse in attraction or repulsion mode does not matter. It works the same.

- Please see my latest video below. Note the waveform across the coils for tuning. You need to make sure the input pulse voltage DOES NOT exceed the generator pulse voltage. You need to get your pulse width to fit almost exactly neatly inside the top of the generator pulse such that you can't even make out the input pulse as it is masked inside the generator pulse. Don't worry, the motor will still run when you do this as long as the input pulse width is wide enough but still within the generator pulse.

- I am reluctant to say that you can get the battery to charge as well, even though I am doing this also, because it is not easy so until I can work out a simple enough arrangement and circuit for others to replicate a battery charging effect also, I will just say that you can run this motor indefinitely on the same battery with what I have presented so far, fairly easily!

- In regard to the motor I am showing you relating to this thread, my perspective is that it was born out of this thread and should remain here as a reference to the benchmark of performance that Steorn has shown us so far. Until they show us superior performance of their motor to my motor then I think my motor should remain here in this thread were it was born.

Hey Ossie.
My motor got up to 5400 RPM but it used a lot of V & no recharge. I have built two circuits now. I am pretty sure they are correct but obviously I'm doing something wrong. My rotor dia is diff to yours & JLN does the timing of the switches efffect the generator or have I got a buggered circuit if I'm getting 5400rpm off a 6vsla whose v keeps dropping

Don't bother answering! Just read your above post. Looks like I have yto see if Fischer price makes a scope!

Hi JB,

You need to read my recent posts today here and on the youtube comments. Your coils will generate a particular voltage for a particular RPM. Your input battery voltage needs to be approximately equal to this voltage. By using higher input voltages your RPMs will go higher and as a consequence your generator voltage will increase but higher RPMs are more susceptible to air and bearing friction innefficiencies. So lower voltages are usually more efficient for the rotors we make at home.

Ossie
