Agentgates´s TPU setup with strange wavehill hump

[Magluvin]

Awesome Groundloop

Question, is there any time off with the decade counter? Or is there always going to be a primary on?
To further complicate things, lol I dont want to, but each output of the decade counter can have a 555 1 shot that the time ON can be adjusted. Just something to think about in case its necessary.

I made 1 test tool with 8 thin wires stretched on a long thin plexi, and the other one will be done in a bit. I want to try to understand what is happening at different angles. All the wires will be in parallel and a res in series so the input power is known and to lower the current draw. Just have a need know whats going on.

@Magluvin,

No there is no pause between the firings. If you want a pause then use
Q0, Q2, Q4 on the 4017 to control the transistors on/off and tie Q6 to RES.
That way you get a one clock pulse pause between each firing.

It is no problem to use a one shot 555 at each output but then it will be
less expensive to just use one PIC micro controller.

Hi Groundloop,
how did you drive your setup  with your bulb ?
Just pulsed ONE input  coil and compared output at the
output coil versus input power ?

Or did you already used 3 input coils with sequential switching ?

As I got mails telling me, that AgentGates claimed
to have a running device and does not show it,
from the start on,  I am thinking about moving this thread back into the
TPU area, until AgentGates comes forward and shows his real stuff ?

What do you all think about this ?

Regards, Stefan.

Thanks. Never played with the 4017   but alternating the outputs is good.  =]
Just tinkin

Lol. It has been only two days now and he already gave the secret sauce. And even its own development is in an early stage. Those people pming you should learn to have patience, the truth comes with time. If I'm not mistaken he's trying to put together instructions, videos, theory, the prize unit and a setup that doesn't burn in minutes. Give the guy a break and time.
