I am trying out this circuit too, i really like its simple design.
Has anyone tried bistable reed-switches? As i understand it, they would not need an additional magnet?
In my very first results i have only seen a charge rate, if i have moved the magnet in my hand to a position, so that it was able to shake periodically. So i am not sure if just taping the magnet on the switches will have a continous effect?
The limited lifespan of the switches is a bummer.
An electrical switching would consume some power, so to use the magnetic field is probably the best idea. Stefan Hartman has used a relais in his shock charger.

This thing really needs a voltage regulator and a charge controller to keep from over charging the charge battery.
(did I make an inverter???). It ran at about an amp on 12 volts but everything handled it ok. These new reed switches work great but they are a little noisy.
This circuit is very very interesting. I have a bedini wheel that works very nice and does what it says on the tin. I have been able to make my bedini trifilar coil self oscillate with ease so i thought i would mod my coil and the results look promissing with no reed switch. Im going to hook up a cap and ignition coil later to test. Basically, the triger coil makes the power coil oscillate and i then feed the radiant energy in to the third winding and out to a charging batt. My amp draw is 120ma and the voltage over the diode to charge batt is 14.8v. The way you are feeding the radiant output back in to the coil reminds me of Teslas bifilar patent. I'll report back later and tell you how it goes. Thanks again for showing us these circuits
