Solid State 4-battery Tesla Switch using opto + mosfet

[holtage]

Warning: Please do not tell me to see/refer to the thread "Use for the Tesla Switch", the thread wastes my time and is COMPLELETLY USELESS. I found nothing relevant for constructing my Tesla Switch.....

I am going construct a solid state Tesla Switch. The mechanical switch is being replaced by a combination of 3 things: PCP116(photocoupler), a resistor and a mosfet(IRF540/IRF540N). Capacitor used is electrolytic capacitor 1000uF 100V. Battery is 12V lead-acid battery.

Parts list:
12V lead-acid battery x 4
IRF540/IRF540N N-channel MOSFET x 4 (Is there any difference in IRF540 and IRF540N?)
P-channel MOSFET x 2 (I cannot find the relevant p-channel mosfef, any opinion regarding this?)
Electrolytic Capacitor (1000uF 100V) x 2
PCP116 opto-isolator x 6
Resistor x 6
1N1183 Diode x 4

Other questions: How about darlington pairs transistor? What "2N3055/2N2222A combination"...?

Other thread

All my opinions are based on everything I learned working on the devices detailed on the other thread…devices that happen to work by the way, so apparently that information is "not relevant", "wastes your time" and is "COMPLELETLY USELESS." Therefore, I have no help to give.

Not to say that the article you are presenting is bad info but it has not panned well for most. For starters Nikola Tesla did not build that. John Bedini named it for its likeness to one of the patents.

I have built 28 versions of the Tesla switch using any switching method possible. The one that is working is based on the Benitez patents. It has been running for 2 years and shows no sign of running down.
I posted on the "Use for the Tesla switch" Thread and so my info is useless to you as well.

Maybe you should read the whole thread.

Good luck.

Bad attitude

I almost never post on this forum anymore because of attitudes just like yours. What you are really saying is you guys that have worked on this for years are a bunch of dummies because you haven't figured it out but I am so smart I am going to. But could you help me because I don't really know what I am doing. And you really think you are going to get some help!

I see this same attitude over and over again on several forums I belong to. What is wrong with people now days? A lot of them admit they don't know how something works and they are too lazy to want to learn so they expect someone else to solve all their problems for them but show no respect for someone that is trying to help them.

When you learn to show a little respect for those that have spent years working on something like this project you might get a little help but I have nothing to offer you now.

A great start would be to use something like this for your switch:


This is kEhYo77's design which is very close to my design, only I use a DC-2-DC convertor instead of a battery for the drive power.

Some kind of switch like this is necessary for the S.E.R.P.S. replication and it would probably work well for a Tesla Switch too.
