    im also trying to implent this, so pls let me know these details.
    Diodes are on the left side of pcb by the pulser caps. I'm showing components on my youtube and the bridge which is on the side facing transformer. I'm running this off 12V DC. There is a free software available online to program any PIC family controller. You can start with code provided by Bit's but it may need to be modified depending on your components, such as transformer. I have this running on different transformer which has been changed for a bigger one allowing higher frequency without heating itself.

    Hope this helps

    Hi guys, After couple busy nights I finally managed to replicate Bit's IVA according to last revision . I had a little problem with too small transformer getting warm but just found bigger one and swapped few hours ago. I have 10 000uF caps which I'll replace with bigger values as soon as they arrive. Anyways, this is real beauty, works really nice. I'll make a short tube when I get some rest. Been working all night. Big to Bit's, NVisser and everyone for contributing and making this progress possible.

    hey jeff we have done with the ciruit fabrication on the board but i need to know how to burn the code on the pic , and the code says you will need some modification so what modification should i do in the code..pls reply

Are the latest setups using solid state switching of batteries in Jeff's Machine of Time circuit or are there relays on the outputs of the H11D1's ? Hopefully my question at least makes sense. Seeing the specs on the H11D1's I assume they are using relays or other solid state switching to actually pulse power to batteries. Would that be correct?
    Hi ewizard, yes there are opto's and solid state switching, LCD readout, terminal monitoring, battery charging, loading (day and night) and more. Stay tuned. John K. will be illustrating a bit more.

    Thanks

    Great again Bits!!

    Another great video!! You just keep on putting out more and more interesting things. After all the months of working on the TS I can't wait to get to Idaho and find out what the secret is to getting a TS to work like that! Thanks for sharing.

    Coming to a Conference Soon, The Multi-Function Tesla Switch (MFTS).

    Ok gang, here is the first glimpse of the new MFTS that you will be able to view at the upcoming conference in July. In the video, I am showing the functionality used in conjunction with the Batt Swapper. What a neat device.
    Actual load on the panel was 700ma.


    Enjoy.

    Thanks Bit's

    Thanks Bit's for the parts list. I have always been interested in this circuit. With
    this info, now I know it could be replicated.

    I already printed the schematic but some components have no values.

    Jeff, thanks for the link back to your circuit. I have been digging around for it hoping it would resurface eventually. More on topic though, I'm glad to see your advanced ts design that incorporated your battery switcher with other means of charging. It makes me dream of things in my future. Mostly is that I want a hands on model to prove to a few people that this is possible.
