John G
I have used the liquid plastic/rubber for many things and just feel that it would be hard to keep it from sagging until dry. I have thought of doing it with the tow straight up which would coat well but height would prohibit enough time for drying befor it touches anything or a thin spot might develope. The heat shrink is cheap and has a total coverage. Getting it thru is a pain but once in the wire is rock solid and can be wound as per copper several times. The tape style has a good covering and is ready to wrap. 300 feet of one inch is 117.00 and can be raped side by side to give three coils on a three inch core. Bob has good results with even 12 feet of two inch which is 20.00 out the door, ready to rap. I do not know now what effect the thicker coating would do. I do know that the more space (she) has, the happier she is and I think like a large battery, it holds more and gives more. Testing will be necessary to really know just how much. We do know that an additional coil in series with the CF produces twice as much and like I said, more space for her to live.
To all having trouble with circuits..... You guys seem to have trouble with the voltage regulator and frequency/duty cycle. The correct answer is in looking at John Stones circuit and using that part of his system to slip into the rest of your circuit. That part of the system is simple and has correct diagram and values that once installed will not be hot or make smoke and is duty cycle from 1 to 99% Dana Last edited by prochiro : Today at 05:02 PM.

Hi All
Here is where I got my 10 turn linear pots. They say 2 for $8.99 with free shipping, but they actually sent me 4 instead. 2PCS Multi-Turn Wirewound Potentiometers WXD3-13 100K OHM | eBay Hope this helps Larry Last edited by larryross : Today at 09:03 PM. |

CF coil
UFO et al,
OK. I think we have made some good progress on the CF coil. I will try to give a detailed report here. I wound the 2" CF tape at the middle of a spool that is about 5.5" all and has a 3" hole in the center. I simply wound the 12' of CF tape onto the spool then wound a coil of 4 magnet wires, each 300' long, Litzed, 19AWG starting at the top of the spool, down over the CF tape, to the bottom then back up, and down again, keeping the coils as close and even as possible. With the 4 copper wires in parallel the impedance measured .8 ohms. I also wound a CF coil using 7 strands of 1k CF tow, each 15' long, covered w/ 3/64" heat shrink tubing, all in parallel. I initially thought that tho coil was working well, but later discovered that one of the strands was in fact touching the other coil on one end and that at least 90% of the power was coming from the 2" CF tape coil. I took this 1k tow coil out of the test and the 2" tape coil provided very well...for starters at least. I previously posted numbers of volts per input and don't have that info in front of me at the moment, but the interesting phenomenon is worth noting here. In my first test I couldn't measure any voltage, but in this second test I placed diodes on the CF tape coil ends to make the energy go one direction. I assume that this only affects the Hot energy, but I was able to measure DC voltage. I think that by doing this I am probably only measuring 1/2 the actual volts. And when I attach both ends of the CF tape coil to the same leg of a NE-2 and it's other leg to a ground it does light a little brighter than with just one end of the coil attached. I used a free-standing coil (not attached to the circuit at all or to any thing else) to ground the NE-2. If I touched it on the ground side it got brighter, so I am a better ground than the coil (there's probably a joke in there somewhere). Dana and I discussed the probability that a really good ground to the earth would increase the energy even more. I also wonder about attaching an antennae to the center of the coil (?). It might increase things from the other end. (?) The next thing is that I attached the NE-2 ground leg to the Neg of the Output of the circuit. This produced greatly more energy as the NE-2 and the Neon that I was running on the circuit Output BOTH lit brighter!!! Here again both ends of the CF tape coil were attached to one side of the NE-2 and the other side to the Neg of the Output. I tried a commercial spark gap bulb that I had laying around. It is a little bit bigger than an NE-2, sealed glass bulb, and it glowed purple. I don't know anything about this spark gap bulb because it is all written in Russian. But it is a lovely purple. Next I attached the Neg input to the free-standing coil (as the NE-2 was now attached to the Neg of the Output) and the voltage measured from the CF tape coil jumped up about 50%. At the time it had been 84v and it went to 130v. Again, this is measuring through the diodes and may be 1/2 of what's there. (?) Also, I was able to turn off the device, then start it back up w/o turning the pots down to achieve low Hz. The device immediately produces at any setting. Dana has told you about our next tests. I am going to make a coil using 50k tow in heat shrink wrapped around a 1/2" spool and filled out about 1/2"-3/4" thick, then wrap 2 strands of 19AWG, each 125' long (maybe 4 strands and keep them separated, 2 and 2 so I could bring a pair off a MOSFET separately to keep the ohms around .8-1 ohm). Dana and I are very impressed with 150' of 18AWG as a coil. It seems to create a good strong magnetic field. I think we need to experiment with coil wires as short as 50'. (?) If I remember anything else I will post it with the results of the next tests. I have some pics at: Pictures by bobfrench - Photobucket Bob |
