Hi,

This is a personal off topic post:
I just signed in, because I am reading the overunity dot com stuff for over a year and this is the first time that I do not find your manner of conversation awkward wrt insults, ego polishing and fights over personal beliefs. I'm a software-developer  so I'm finally happy to find you all in a state of healthful curiosity and cooperation.
You know, many people are reading your stuff, without you noticing; it really helps - in whatever ways - seeing the bunch of you working nicely towards a great goal, which is opposite to the experience of seeing you guys drilling and poking stinky fingers into each other's brains.

Thanks & sincerely yours from currently cold northern Germany,

Agreed! I feel like I'm standing on the shoulders of giants in this thread. A total noob like me was able to get something up & running. I also am not fond of "poking stinky fingers into each others brains" LOL! The more replications the better! However my inner conspiracy theorist is concerned the worlds supply of metglas may suddenly become scarce. But if Honeywell was behind creation of Metglas ( my understanding) they must be out there in a lot of applications.

Hi Kasimier,

Good to have you on board.  I for one have found that most of the folk on this particular thread have been doing their best to keep it on the up and up.....Hey spring is just 2-3 months away and then the cold will be a thing of the past.

All, here is a simple way to accurately measure the pulse current input into a ORBO.  Basically you use a high multi FARID Cap. as a filter to get rid of all the pulsing, NOT to integrate the actual pulse but to highly regulate the output of the power supply.  In my case, I run between 1 and 2 VDC.  I first short the 0-100 ma meter in series with the Cap., charge it up to 1.000 VDC, while monitoring the voltage across the actual cap.  Then when I have the voltage stable on the cap, start up the Pulse motor.  Open shunt switch around meter and watch the pure DC replacement current into the cap.....I find that works pretty well.  Also, you need to measure the voltage across the coil/s itself to see what the voltage is AT the COIL!  Then you know how much loss is in wiring/switcher/etc. You will find out how useless clip leads are except for initial testing. You could also replace the MA meter with a DVM, might have to adjust the output of the power supply to make up for the resistive losses in the meter shunt itself.  Just for example,
with cap @ .976 VDC, Voltage @ coil is .650 for a drop of 328 mV in my ultra simple reed relay system with clip leads!.  With decent wiring, shouldn't drop more than a few mV in a simple system like this!  Oh, just for the thinking out there, I have to "make" that current and that voltage to make the motor OU........Easier said than done!

I'll stick up a short video on YouTube in a few min to show this idea and how well it works to measure current.

Ok, so it should be the 2714 material.
Looking at the specifications, I noticed that there are actually 4 forms:
- Anneal longitudinal field
- Anneal Transverse field
- No-field Anneal
- As cast

Looks like they have 3 different manufacturing methods.
How do I know what I order and what did you guys order w.r.t. the anneal characteristics?

I think GB or Paul worked out it should be longitudinally annealed. It is earlier in the thread. Also must be square loop so the models ending in S

I asked that question days ago, and nobody seemed to interested.

Hey, why didn't anyone respond to my request to verify the date stamp of my files? That means a lot of me.

Yes, can verify the timestamps, just can't read the files.
