that you were successful with having a loooog duty cycle meaning the time it took for a 2" disk to past over a 1" core. Also I believe the opposing magnets were easier to adjust for optimum. Now that you have this new beauty with a much heavier construction it stands to reason it would take a little more to operate. Operator costs are the costs power companies have written on our bill coming in the mail. This cost is only a few percent. Or we might say operator costs are the amount of input needed to rotate the rotor.
