Lidmotor: " This is great. Anyway I got a 555 timer circuit modified in a way to work the CFLs without using anything else ". I like this one too. It's becoming compact, miniaturized. The next item to work on, I guess, is to measure the amount of illumination for comparison with the works of other people. Thanks for your video. It helps me a lot in my thinking about 555 timer circuit because of its simplicity.

In regards to your comment on light quality are you aware of the different types of CFL's? Some are specifically stated as being "white light" and perhaps that is why you have that appearance on yours. My 20w one is fairly yellow when glowing
Ive had a bulb go dim and orange from a overnight onewire setup
@nat was thinking the same with the two plate stuff cool need to study your finding.
wait a minute the setup you have has a possible two ground connections try copper and zinc/steel. tuning going to be hard. try different part on the setup. just an idea you never know!!!!!
@lidmotoor Mr 555 lol sink bigger surface area needed more charging?
@Mart energy transmition? Tesla
@hoppy I can connect a 100K resistor in the HV lamp circuit and it has no effect on the brightness; it seems to simply sweep over the resistor.
i had that too with the volt meters.

I just wanted to quickly jump in here as it's late. I too have replicated Imhotep's radiant oscillating circuit. I have been able to light a standard ~17W bulb (34 as he says). Out of curiosity, of course, I wanted to try this with other gas filled bulbs. I'm happy to say that this technique WILL light other gas filled bulbs, namely a 1000w high pressure sodium HPS bulb. The light is weak and blue in the HPS tube which is a tube within the bulb. I have made videos and when I get the chance I'll post them (probably on the pirate's bay where things AREN'T censored). I think upping the voltage may result in better performance but I have very little time to experiment with this. I'll check back when I get the chance and post more info. (can I link multiple car coil's in series or will that destroy the second in the series?? I haven't noticed any one mentioning stepping things up further, sorry if I missed it)
Some one on bob boyce's "working water car" forum on yahoo is working on picosecond PWM board's which are exhibiting the massive energy flux Tesla associated w/ rapid on/off switching. So keep up the work in that direction guys. It's all about the dV/dT. There's also a good paper posted by someone on the forum by Zaev N.E., "Inductive conversion of heat environmental energy to electrical energy" from New Energy Technologies Issue #1 January-February 2002, p.40 . This paper has excellent info going into this rapid energy flux associated w/ coil's and rapid switching.

Thanks for the welcome

Are you aware that the initial idea for the *Imhotep Radiant Oscillator Lite* [Light?] used a 12v relay?
You may find that easier to acquire and play with until you can find an ignition coil.
click here for Imhotep Radiant Oscillator Lite website and videos

An interesting observation from my perspective is when I tried to light up a CFL using the circuit of an existing portable 12V car fluorescent lantern I got
what sound to me like high frequency humming and the CFL lit up without the + and - wires making contact with the CFLs wires. Needless to say this effect lasted a few moments and then I suspect the circuit got fried.
I have started playing with the Imhotep-Bedini SSG Fan and I think I have something working similar to the original except that I can't get the fan to turn with the transistor wired up but in the mean-time have used a 555 circuit again to pulse the modified fan and seem to be able to charge a second battery.
I don't want to deviate too much from the thread topic except to say again that I am very impressed by the great work done by everyone and the good spirit in which everything is done.
Thanks

@Nat Before i had a look at your setup the first thing that came to mind was the earth battery thing for the two caps you have, Positive and Negative.
http://www.energeticforum.com/renewa...attery-sg.html
Check it out Arrons a star!
But i printed your post off and, MAN HOW COOL IT THAT
would love to have a play, looks like great fun!!!!(still think a positive rod somewhere MAY help).
@glowman you dont need a relay just pulse the transistor like the fan thing your doing, and forget the fan if you cant get it going. swap it for the ignition coil
To get the fan going try Imhotep fan tread.

also i think the caps doing weird things after discharge.

Can i ask why dont you what the BEMF?

I dont want the BEMF recovery because I have no enough space for a second battery.Mine is a 10W solar panel and if the circuit that run the lamp consumes around 300 mA,I can have ligth all the nigth, if I want.
I have not read all the posts,but I have seen many circuits with a switching relay that consumes very little power,but really I dont want to hear the clicking sound....

the 555 i have used is 555 Noise-Maker Kit > Maplin
this is a video with recovery but it will work without it.

you could do it with the circuit we are using now too. The thing is I can get it to pull 300ma @12v with charging on the back and it doesnt drain like 300ma should. I had my light running like that off a 12v 7 amp hour battery yesterday and it sat at 12.01v for over 40 minutes. From all that Ive seen it should have dropped at least .05 with this particular sized battery. The charging on the back end impedes the progressive drain on the front end somewhat I think. If you have a solar panel it could be configured to run the light and charge the back end directly and indirectly maybe.
Anyway I will have a little tinker with something and let you know. Perhaps it can just be configured as a parallel resonant circuit with a cap. A few people here have noticed the change of effects when a cap is put across the terminals of the ignition coil with this particular version (SG).
Bodkins is right though. The effect could easily be done with a 555.
heres some more pics guys.Last edited by ren; 06-13-2009, 12:40 AM."Once you've come to the conclusion that what what you know already is all you need to know, then you have a degree in disinterest." - John Dobson

Bodkins,
Interesting...Do yo mean 300mA of total consuption (ignition coil+circuit driver)?
Can you write a schematic of the add-ons for more clearness?
Ren,
Can you put a link reference?
I would like to read more about the resonant circuit idea,also.
People:
I'm sorry,but I have to say that isnt a good idea to shows the schematics in the videos.Often the bad quality image is a time consuming for the reader.....Last edited by Philosopher; 09-22-2008, 08:10 PM.

Your right Philosopher
In this thread we are researching the basic schematic that Imhotep made public, I think about a month ago. Development by each researcher has taken the basic schematic on different paths.
What you request is Info.
Trying to understand all the info on this thread will be very time heavy.
@All
Can we help Philosopher ?
