Bi-toroid Transformer of Thane C. Heins

[bwebb]

thanks Woopy

I had made a bitt transformer a few years back did some testing and got
pretty much nothing to talk about. Then ran across the bitt the other day
and so I checked in on the forum to see what was up. See where Woopy
posted that you had to put a load on both sides to get anything.

Well I tried that and now it get results.

THANKS WOOPY

@mr.clean,

Congratulations. Those Metglass cores must have cost you plenty. Sensational power! Looks like six seperate "C" cores: Two large, four small. The difference the increased permeability makes is really impressive. This new accomplishment is state of the art. Nothing can beat your "Hi-perm" configuration, and it's just simple building block assembly from standard off the shelf cores of the highest permeability. Was it difficult to purchase those Metglass cores? That bi-toroid could be commercially viable.

Hi Kurt,

You have asked woopy under the video text: btw...how do you check (lamp) ohms while running?

Well, it is not needed to know the "hot" resistance of the lamp for getting the lamp power: once you have the smoothed DC output across the lamp (16.95V) all you would need to do is connect an ampermeter directly in SERIES with the lamp. Even if you use a digital DC ampermeter, it would give a much better lamp current than your using the supposed 34 Ohm lamp resistance, just because you now have a well filtered (smoothed) DC voltage available.
One more notice: if I can see correctly you use a 12V battery as the input power source and you use 12V for the input power calculations. Have you checked the actual battery voltage? because if it has 12.8V for instance, then you underestimate the actual input power, the difference is not too much I know but why not use actual values?

Thanks for all your efforts.

yep all good advice, and the LEDs are great but cant be trusted, i am aware of that and plan to drive some real loads moving forward.

[mr.clean]

Zvs circuit diagrams are at google, it appears to be an identical circuit in your new video 44 Mr.Clean. The center tapped primary is gorgeous, how have you arranged the pickup electromagnet?

i appreciate that sir, yeah i like how it turned out.
The secondaries are connected to each other, bottom to top with thicker wire, added turns until i got the voltage i wanted. was a process for sure, but happy with the result.
Now to do the same with the Metglass cores, get away from LEDs and drive some real loads

[mr.clean]

great work everyone, sorry to butt in, i have a new Bitoroid video to share, using Metglass large cores and unique primary centertap idea.

Driving each primary core leg separately at its according secondary, while exhibiting input current drop under load, maintaining a strong emf thru distinct deliberate flux paths to secondaries, and good power to the load despite the input current falloff.

More to come, but wanted to see how the primary performed and if i got the right effects using Metglass, pleased so far... enjoy!

Awesome video, Mr.Clean!

It looks like overunity to me.

Would you please post a schematic of your Zero Voltage Switching Circuit?

Cheers

Hi Kurt,

Nice video.

Has anyone suggested an analog amp meter on the output?

Great result for sure!

Keep at it.

Penno

p.s. any chance of circuit?

Where can we get metglas cores or tape?

[Alexg800]

In DLE-TEST05 : Confirmation of the Thane C. Heins' Effect with the BiTT v1.5, Naudin states that the overunity effect seems to be related to a high time constant (L/R) of the primary winding. Your primary seems to have a relatively small L/R and could probably use a lot more turns. Inductance, L, goes up exponentially with each turn whereas the resistance, R, increases linearly. Just keep wrapping more turns onto that primary and see what happens. I'm interested to know as I've tested the Bitoroid configuration before and didn't get the results similar to Thane's. Everything seemed conventional, albeit I was using a non-ideal core for a transformer effect.

Hello Dave,
Thanks a lot for your comment.
In my design L=42mH, R=0.5 Ohm.
So as the f = 4kHz, then X_L = 2*3.14*4000*0.042= 1055 Ohm.
It means that X_L >>R, so COS is a proximately 90 degr.
Of course I could add turns in the primary. Will it help? How do you think?
B.R.
