Agentgates´s TPU setup with strange wavehill hump

[FatBird]

Hey Lindsay,

Yeah, I too have wondered and wondered about how SM said they rotated the other way in the Southern Hemisphere.  You are the only person that has mentioned it.

So it seems to me that if we just Reversed the polarity going to the coils, and used the Polarity that gave the Highest Output to the Load.

What is your opinion?

@all

I made one with a jt circuit 18 turns , with a secondary of 4 turns , i get 4.5 volt once rectified leds light on it , due to the design i made i get AC but if you really can get true DC from it i will.

Btw i used a 15/75 degree , 2n2222 transistor and 300 ohm pot , 1.5 v aa...

There is interesting stuff happening , i am surprised to even get anything from the secondary...

Hi Mark,

How big is the space you have between the turns? 10 or 20 degrees? Please note that if you don't finish the winding on the coil you will receive the incorrect signal I also posted above.

If you have 18 turnes, you need 20 degrees spaces, but you really have to struggle to make high curent spikes.

You get the AC beacuse the current is low.

My advise is to check the 45 degrees to the centreline, use 10 degrees between each turnes and make the 36 turnes complete. Afterwards lay the 2 more primary between the 10 degrees spaces. That is 3.33 degrees.

Use thin wire for primary, 0.38mm or 0.19mm. The thinner the better but also the more difficult to work with.

The secondary should be alright if the spaces are more than 2x of the diameter and the diameter is greater than the primary. I wouldn't go below 0.74mm (this is the lowest I tried so far, the thicker secondary performs better)

I wonder if being in the southern hemisphere I may  need to wind the primary in reverse direction, just something that Steven said once.

Yes, please do try it and let us know the deatils. And please don't destroy your other coil wound in the opposite direction as we can verify it later whether it's a problem.

Many thanks.

@Stefan

Do you want an inverter on it? As if you do please let me know it now and I'll wind the secondary for 2x200V on your coil.

Hi Tony,
what is your normal output voltage ?

Well, high voltages AC or DC for driving directly 230/240 Volts incandescent bulbs would be great.

Did you succeed to convert the video ?
I just see, that no new video is uploaded on your agentgates youtube account.

Regards, Stefan.

Pardon my question but in photo 281 the area on the waveform under the zero line roughly equals the area above the zero line (the peak). This would imply an AC oscillation on the secondary, not DC. correct me if I'm wrong, but I have been often fooled by this.

Also photo 254 was earlier touted as being a correct response on the secondary and now is stated as incorrect.

If you believe your secondary is producing DC, you should be able to put a cap on it without any problems. Use an isolating diode if necessary, but shouldn't be required.

A diode and cap in the forward direction and diode and cap in the reverse direction on the secondary with small loads across the caps will quickly give an indication of DC balance or imbalance or whether your secondary is producing balanced AC.

Most handheld DMM's will read zero volts DC when connected to an AC waveform, but waveforms with HF components can trick the meter.

Just a suggestion as determining DC from an irregular waveform can be tricky.

Thanks for all your work.......V
