    From what You say I must conclude that they are indeed radient spikes going into the batteries.
    But I will test it more thoroughly once my killingly slow TS test finally is over ;-)

    • I didn't realize you had aready posted.

      Haven't run accross the offtime spike before.

      Do they measure the same voltage on each side of the diode?

        Please forgive me, I don't understand, what do You mean by offtime spike?
        To me they just look like h-waves, as in the SSG, with every second h upside-down.
        What am i missing?

        I'll check that, it's on my todo-list along with the video of the scope.

        • I a circled it in the attachment. I don't get that in a monopole. Just spikes that go up.
          It my be product of switching the TS, because you are not using a bridge before your coil (According to the schematic) so one spike goes up the current switches direction and the other spike goes down.

          The bridge will tell ya.
          If you use bridge before the coil the energy will travel the same way through the coil no matter wich direction it comes from in the battery.

          Thats how you keep a motor spinning in the same direction. If you just ran the motor without a bridge it would bounce back and forth.

            I think that may be because you are looking at it as a DC wave and not an AC wave...

            Have a look at these scope shots I posted in another thread



            The red line is the zero volt mark. When the coil energises the voltage is in the polarity below the red line, then the discharge spike (Back-EMF/Flyback) is the opposite polarity.

            • Now I see.
              Here is my zero-mark, in red.
              Each straight-up "h" is followed by an upside-down "h".
              I am measuring it over the coil.

              • I did mention it, although very briefly, at 0:42 in video 1, about minus 12, plus 12 and resting very shortly at zero in between.
                I'll try to be more clear next time

                • I follow you. I have hard time with electronics because you can do that kinda stuff. Mechanically if you had that wave it would ON / OFF.
                  I do everything mechanically except when I duplicate somebody elses stuff, like the monopole.

                  Even in Seph's shot the spike go up.

                  How do the spike travel to your batteries.

                  What I am wonder is if you have a downward spike traveling to the positive pole of the battery will it disapate current inside the battery.

                  • My intention with this circuit is that the built-in rectifier takes care of all spikes, ensuring that all positive spikes always goes to one pair of the batteries at their plus side, and that all negative spikes always go the the other pair of the batteries at their plus side as a positive spike from their point of view.
                    It seems to work.

                    • Hi,

                      I'm having trouble uploading my 3:rd video, but here is a preview of the circuit until the video is live.
                      My intension this time is to add a load in series with the coil, but avoiding the spikes from the coil on the new load.

                      • Its live!
                        It also contains the asked for shot of the scope of the previous circuit.

                        • I had just finished my new motor, my 3'rd variant of the Tesla-switch using the coil as part of the motor together with small ferro-magnets and 6 reed-switches, a mechanical kind of Bedini-motor with both push & pull for each magnet if you like, it was ticking along slowly (but nicely) when I accidentally got too near with a neo-magnet and found out that a reed-switch can also function as a fuse

                          I have to get more reed-switches...

                          Doh!

                            • I finally got new reed-switches
                              There are no adjustments made yet, this is the first run:

                              • I just found this thread!

                                Hey all, it looks like some of you are already working on almost exactly my idea's already, probably long before I even thought of them, lol... I had not seen this thread yet, but now that I just found it, I wanted to post my work here and see if I could get some comments, advice, or whatever!

                                My work is actually pretty close to work others have spoke about in this thread already, I guess I'm glad I found others working on it finally! It's a work in progress, but sort of a proof of concept.

                                YouTube - Young Radiant Energy Battery Charger

                                Here are the schematics for it. The first one is the one that is in the video, without all the switching. The second is the one I am working towards completing. Any suggestions?

                                A side note, with the same setup as in the video, I did hook a 23w flourescent bulb to the battery 5 place in the schematic, and it does light up. It is flashing about once a second or slightly less, but it does light brightly! I don't know that this means anything, I just thought it was interesting to note.
