Bedini SG

[dambit]

Hi All,

I have attached a laymans diagram of my proposed battery swapper. It is very basic and as such relies on each timer being set to switch at the same time. I could do it with a relay controller but they cost a bit. Any advise would be most welcome.

Also, as I am colourblind I have used random colours for the wires, not green and red. Normally I wouldn't use any colours, but some people might find it easier to follow.

Cheers,

Steve

RE: battery swapper

Im still waiting for my board to arrive from sparkfun ,
I will probably have a few questions when i get it and start making this .

I think once I get it all working , It will have a lot of applications .

Ok, will be glad to help you thru the journey of building it.

One thing that nailed me is there is two wires you must solder on before you can communicate with the Pic to TX and RX. This stopped me cold for about a week, till I got help to figure it out. But will walk you thru when you get there.

Hi Mart,

Thanks for the info. My idea was to have a switching device that is run off an adjustable timer. For example I could set it to switch the batteries every 24 hrs if they where deep cycle. Kind of like the light switch timers. (only it would need a few more wires)

Cheers,

Steve.

Exactly the setup I have...

Many many wires, but much fun

On July 4th I tried 90 V with the SSG. I did get it to go for about 1/2 min.

But... my 1/4 watt resistor died. When i am feeling brave again I think I will give it another go with my 2 watt resistor. and the choke to limit the amps...

Tonight I had an idea with the fans..... I put another fan up to the running fan and I got 3.5 V out of it... I was considering hooking that fan up the the earth battery circuit... maybee that voltage would build up in the cap and then spark enough to charge another battery...

I am still fighting the assembly language code, but I have now two people who know assembly language that are helping me....

It has been a good 4 day weekend .... and forgot to say

HAPPY 4th of JULY everybody !!!!

Check out my videos ( see my link below ) for auto battery swapper. There is another thread here that has more details and the hex file for programming the pic. I am currently writting my own program to do this, mine cannot sense voltage, but.... I am getting very close to being able to set the time to the minute.

Switching circuit..

Hi All,

I recall seeing a post about a switching circuit for the batteries. I did a quick search but nothing turned up. Does anyone have a circuit for doing that?

Hope everyones projects are going well.

Cheers,

Steve.

I have a autobattery swapper that I got from Dude buggy, there is one on the Yahoo groups by Rick, but that requires you flip the switches, as I recall.

I was looking at the new chargers on rick's site, they are now interfaced in with the computer so it will report back to you the charging time the amount of energy in the battery..

I also hear tell that Daftman ( from youtube ) has one, but he has not released his yet.

So far about 5 people have contacted me for the fine details of making the autobattery swapper. no one has got back to me that theirs works yet, but I do believe soon they will be..

earth ground

The ground connection, if you mean the Earth ground connection, it is not necessary.

Some people get an increase and some people don't. It is a fuzzy variable.

[patmac]

Circuit need Ground???

I was studying schematics Bedini SG some circuits is ground connected. Is necessary?.

I was thinking about Tesla ionospheric energy, earth is like capacitor ionosphera is positive and ground negative, Bedini SG swtiching produce positive? and we need ground negative?....

I am building my first bedini motor. And I mas playing around with the extra magnets and found an intersting idea that I will incorporate into the design. this should make it so it takes less power to run the motor. What I did is simply hold a magnet off to the side of the rotor in a very weak repulsion mode so that it just barely neutralizes the attraction of the other magnets to the core. so the magnets have no sticking point when near the core because the repulsion magnet contacts the attraction to the core so now the wheel freewheels easier. it sholud make it so one can adjust the input power lower and still have the motor run without interfering with any of its other functions.
I am using the ceramic magnets but this maigh be also utilized to reduce the drag on neo magnets.
But on thte other hand it will reduce any torque one might get from the magnets being attracted. but I am under the impression that most of the power comes from the powering up of the coil so we will see. Anyone have thoughts on this?

Hi,

I you look at crob227's videos on youtube he does something similar if I understand you correctly he has made in his earlier videos a ring by which he speeds up the path of the magnet to travel around ...

well looks like he took them down but the idea of magnet gates is what I think you are looking at.

radiant

The radiant that applies here is the voltage potential without electron current. This is only 1 type of "cold electricity."

[ren]

Aaron or anyone else here please correct me if I am wrong.

I thought the radiant is what appeared at the leading edge of the pulse, its like the initial surge upon switch closure. The collapse of the coil holds potential that is collected but the high voltage radiant isnt seen upon switch open.

[dambit]

Hi all,

I was thinking about the master and slave coil configuration and a question kept popping up. The magnets induce a small current in the trigger coil activating the power coil, which inturn pulls in the next magnet and then collects the radiant from the collapsing field. This being the case, is it nessesary for the slave coils to be near the magnets? i.e in a multicoil setup where only one of the coils has a trigger winding. The slave power coils will still activate and the fields will still collapse when the trigger is off.

I may be missing something, but thats how I see process.

Cheers,

Steve

That was a great post, it answered a few questions I had.
I remember on the EFTV2 dvd, that john mentions that all his machines run on the C20 rating (the ones he was demonstrating). I was thinking there must be a calculation to work out coil size/turns etc vs current draw of the coil. Will have to think on that.

Cheers,

Steve
