Even when they show that the fire is VERY close to our house, that can be deceiving because it is two dimensional. We live on a ridge and the ground drops off sharply down to the river far below. So sharply you really CAN’T walk down it. So the fire can look close but still be far BELOW us and have to burn up and over the rim. They plowed a fire break all the way around the ridge during our last big fire 7 years ago and widened it this week. They also set a back burn on the brush on the other side of that fire break.
The “camp” for the fire crews is the cul-de-sac at the end of my street about 30 feet past my house. They wouldn’t be setting up there unless they felt that area was safe and protected for their crews. We can see them on our cameras.

Looking at the map the fire line looks very close to your house.
Map doesn't show homes.
Hoping for a miracle!!!
All Dave's receipts might burn upLast edited by BroMikey; 07-07-2022, 07:33 PM.

Are you still there? Headed home soon I hope

If you have extra batteries, (you have THREE more) you can put them all in parallel. This will lower the impedance to charge significantly.
The motor has coils (inductors) that collapse, and the spike follows the path of least resistance to the “charge” batteries. When I did it I had a cap across the batteries with a diode going from the cap positive to the battery positive. The Matt motor connected between boost module and cap.
If you watched Peter’s videos about the Benetiz setup you replicated, he indicates that the “missing piece” he added was the spark gap. The motor commutator in the Matt motor serves the exact same purpose. The Benitez device had to be run at the correct frequency to achieve the proper charging effect on the battery. In that case you had to pulse it at the correct frequency. With this setup the frequency is controlled by the RPM of the motor commutator, and you can control that by adjusting the voltage coming out of the boost module. Batteries charge best at a SPECIFIC FREQUENCY. Figuring out that frequency is the difference between success and failure.
Have fun!
Spark gap or commutator to interrupt current flow
collapsing inductor and capturing the spike
These gains vs resistance and impedance losses.
For your consideration....The normal laws (mathematical formulas) only apply to electricity when you implement the regauging of the Heaviside component. Or as Tom Beardon would say, when you kill the dipole. Or as I would say, when you use a GROUND as the low side of the potential in your circuit
It will take some time to get a strong descent boost module to set up as you stated. I've 5 or 6 bad ones (maybe more)in my shop from the over testing days with the 3BGS times.
Your words haven't fallen on deaf ears. I will give it a try.
I did see what the Matt motor does between the positives on this setup as is. The parallels do charge up. Then the heating of the Matt motor stops the run.
I appreciate the post and pray all is still under control there with the extinguishing of the fire.

This the 4 battery switch DPDT setup that Peter L. built I think 11 years ago(?). I have a inverter there and could use voltage but would lose voltage.
And again I'm using the Matt motor to switch the voltage from the series 24 volt batteries to the parallel 12 volt batteries. No claims. No house size build intended.
Using this as teaching setup for a friend and myself.

Here are the 5 videos that shows Matt's modified motor.
Thanks to Lukasz for pm'ing to me.
And thank you Matt.

wantomake,
Will those videos be posted somewhere for everyone to see? That would be awesome! I have one I am going to post where Matt tested the motor, if I ever get back home. I brought my server with me so I wouldn't loose any of my stuff, but it's a big pain to set up.
Here are some posted shots of where the fire is. The top right tip of the fire is at the end of my street, which is a cul-de-sac. The black circle is my house. You can almost see a white circle and then a paved driveway on the other side of it. The white circle is the end of my street. I could throw a rock and hit the fire from my house. And I am OLD.
Stay safe and away from the fire. It's 104F heat index here in South Carolina!!! Nothing compared to a brush/forest fire! This heat stops my shop time !!
Again praying your house is protected and all is well.

Bro,
Do you have any videos of the testing you did of the magnets with and without sleeves on them?[/QUOTE]
I have to go, no time
my shields were ss wrong stuff but still works

The back end of a fire truck and lots of smoke. No fire visible. If it becomes visible, it means it came up over the rim, and they will evacuate all fire personnel because there is only one road out, and the fire can cut off the exit. So I keep watching for that.
Bro,
Do you have any videos of the testing you did of the magnets with and without sleeves on them? Still searching for something that shows that kind of info.Last edited by Turion; 07-06-2022, 06:30 PM.
