  • Ricks 3-Pole Modification

    Hello Everyone

    I have built and tested numerous setups and also have Ricks 3-pole kit. I have always used car batteries that I rejuvenated using the Bedini circuit but have had trouble getting the batteries to charge up past 12.50 volts only using 12 volts of input until now. I am now able to charge 2 car batteries in parallel to over 13 volts with 12 volts input using Ricks 3-pole kit with a few modifications.

    First I mounted the bifilar coil on the top center location where the generator coil usually goes and the 2 other drive coils are located where they normally are. I am not using the generator coil at all. Now take only 1 Bedini circuit and wire it up to the bifilar coil like normal. For the other 2 drive coils parallel their wires with the bifilar drive coil wires but reverse the wires so that the coils will fire in attraction mode. So now you have the bifilar coil firing a north pole field and the other 2 coils firing a south pole field. 1 coil pushes and the other 2 pull, all on 1 circuit (1 transistor).

    Instead of using a 1n4007 I hook up a FWBR to the drive coils and eliminate the wire going from the positive of the run battery to the negative of the charge battery. I use a 470 ohm resistor and a 1k pot on the trigger base. Give the rotor a good crank to get it going and SLOWLY turn the pot (can take a good minute to get up to speed). When the rotor gets up to 5,000 rpm I bypass the pot and use just the 470 ohm resistor and the rotor speed increases to a little over 5,200 rpm.

    This has resulted in the best charging I have ever experienced with 12 volts input. The input amps hardly registers on my 5 amp meter but pegs my 100 milliamp meter so its around 150 to 200 milliamp draw.

    Nice Mark,

    Id be interested to try that out. So you see a better charge with one circuit firing three parallel coils (two coils set in attraction) but timed off the normal repulsion (third, master coil).

    Have you drained your batteries and done a controlled test? IE if the batteries are already charged this can be noticed in the smallest of machines.

    How does it go filling up a cap? Any difference? If you need some measurements taken against the normal configuration let me know, I have one setup here.

    Regards

      Hi Ren

      I haven't tried the set up yet with 3 transistors yet. I was just surprised with the rotor speed with such a low amp draw. And like I said I have never been able to charge up a car battery to over 13.0 volts before with that kind of input. Usually I need higher input voltage or multiple transistors.

      I do have a small cap 10uf250v on the fwbr and it fills to over 250 volts in a heart beat.

      The other thing that surprises me is that when I bypass the pot and crop down to 470 ohm resistance on the base that the rotor speeds up. I wish I had a scope to look at things better.

      I had originally set up my 3 pole in the correct configuration but it never charged this good before even with 2 or 3 times the amp draw. Maybe in a week or 2 I'll add 2 more transistors to see what happens. I just have the circuit on a bread board so it wont be too hard to change.

      I was just thinking about how JB talked about 22.5 degrees after the coil fires and his drawing of the big monopole. And thought hmmm what if.

        Hey Ren one more thing I tried that surprised me that maybe you can explain to me. I used the single wire generator coil winding as my trigger and the other 2 power coils in a (normal) configuration thinking that this would assure me that there would be only 1 spike per magnet pass to see what kind of effects that would have. And to my surprise there was no charging of the secondary and actually wouldn't even fill up that same cap to 12 volts. I played with it for a few days thinking I had something hooked up wrong. What happened to the collapsing field spike?
