Bodkins,

It's just as much fun, watching you having fun.

This is some amazing stuff.

Thanks Bod ..........

Parts values on 555 circuit

Some questions: What is the values of the capacitor you put between the two diodes to protect the transistor?

What is the resistance values of the induction coil?

What is the actual consumption of the circuit?

Thank you!

The ignition coil is nothing special. I went down to the nearest auto parts store and asked for the cheapest one they had. This one is about 1.7 ohms on the primary and 9.2K on the secondary. Any ignition coil will work. I'm told that a flyback transformer will also work. In the 555 circuit that I showed in the video the small caps at the 555 are .01uf . The large one at the right of the diagram is 1000uf 100V but has nothing to do with the transistor. It is just placed there to catch the BEMF coming off the (-) of the coil and ground. It was an arbitrary choice. Something that I had on hand. A lead acid battery there would be a better choice otherwise you would have to use a cap pulser circuit to put the energy back into the front.
This circuit current draw is about what Bodkins Bedini Fan circuit is---About 100 to 150 milliamps at 12 volts. That is what I really like about it. The light intensity is not very good but with multiple bulbs we might be able to get around that. I added a second 2N3055 to the circuit to handle the current/heat situation and also added a heat sink. Trying to fit it all in a small box now.

Wow!!

More and more people are joining in here. This is great. Anyway I got a 555 timer circuit modified in a way to work the CFLs without using anything else. It is pretty neat to watch do it's thing. I had to change the circuit from the one I tried yesterday that fried 2 chips. This one works as long as you keep the transistor cooled. Still may need that optoisolator Ren.

Thanks to everyone who is running with this idea. This is neat stuff.

Here is the 555 timer video---

my tests

Hi folks, would like to give my results on ignition coil powered cfl's. I am using 555 timer at 4.8khz,50/50 duty, 100micro sec. rise & fall. driving single ign. coil at 12V. routing collapsing field of primary of ign. coil to an 11W Incand. bulb w/ 330uf,200V cap in parallel to bulb. have 3 different cfl's, a 23W, 32W, 13W. the light output of the 23W I would liken to a 25W incand. running at 1/2 brightness or a lil more. and draws 380 milliamps while the 11W incand. bulb at back end is maybe illuminated to 1W or a lil more. however things get interesting as i add the 2nd 32W cfl in series, amp draw drops to 320 milliamps and in my opinion light output is increased to maybe twice. from what i can see each bulb has not diminished in brightness at least i cant detect it with my eyes. when hooking up 3rd smaller bulb also in series light output in basement again is increased. im not sure if this is just spreading out the light better giving the illusion of more light but my eyes cant detect a decrease in each bulbs light intensity and w/ 3rd bulb attached amp draw drops to 280 milliamps. although i think identical bulbs would work better in series like this. Also i did try using a normal car inverter comparing a 60w incand. to 3 in series and in that case yes each is diminished in light output spreading it out through the 3 bulbs but the ignition coil cfl tests are not that way at all. So to me it's looking like if we start with a higher power input to give more real life light outputs then string a bunch of these in series like Bodkins is showing it seems similar to what Joseph Newman is saying, that our input is a catalyst and the copper atoms or in this case the gas and coatings inside the bulb are being converted into light and when using more bulbs or more gas and such we use ever progressively lower inputs and should have more light than we started with at much lower input. And along those lines why wouldn't thick nichrome wire coils in series produce the same heat as one coil would, or more who knows, for lower and lower input. although in this case with these cfl's i would be expecting each light to diminish in light and they don't seem to be, very strange.

Peace, Love, Light

I thought i better post a warning. I don't have the knowledge or skills to determine whether this system is generating xrays or any other type of rays. If you build this system you build at your own risk. You may or may not be damaging your health. Owners onus applies.

I think cracka would find it even more interesting, if he were to try the flipping.

I would if I had the time . My next goal is to use a convergence of methods. Namely, I want to take Imhotep's circuit, remove the portion which controls switching, insert an avalanche pulse width modulator ( <400picoseconds), and use this with the coils. I would expect an even better result via the coupling of an avalanche PWM w/ a toroidal iron powder core inductor (like bob boyce's special toroid) which could then be hooked up to either the car coil or the light bulb directly.

We know that Tesla has said rapid switching was critical so < picosecond PWM's should logically be a step in the right direction. From what I have read it is possible to get a ~2800V/uS slew rate. This rise time rate could be applied to iron powder ferrite core inductors which Zaev N.E. has indicated have a heat conversion to electricity effect when rapidly pulsed. One other guy I'm speaking with is looking into the same thing.

I do believe that this can be applied as an improvement to the current circuitry. And there's only one way to find out...

Heres the revised circuit that i have been working from

Bodkins nice work. I think it would be interesting to have you flip the capacitor, diodes and all, around. Just reverse it. I would like to see if the voltage levels that it maxes out on are different.

I did some additional research on my x-ray question.
According to Tom Bearden negative electricity discharge
coronas can emit UV, X-Rays and even Gamma Rays.

But don't worry, you won't feel a thing.
