Newman Motor

[tjnlsn255]

I use a Sears Craftsman Circle template tool and it works well as long as you keep the center contact firm... no wiggling... or the edges are not smooth....

I use wood and cutting boards to make my circles... for metal discs you may have to go to a machine shop ....

Hope that helps.....

I want to try to get about 5 2000V caps to see how much is really be produced with the inductive spikes.

You are right, I need a bigger flywheel and more contact points. Newman had 21 contact points. My question is, how do you run the wheel and close the circuit?

I am thinking 2 ways:

1. Half does the commutator is for firing and other is collecting spikes.

2. Top Coil is closing, collecting spikes and bottom is for Motor Coil

need to find a tool to make a large flywheel. any thoughts?

Thank you. I bought this circular template from Home Depot, however, the ridges where counter clock wise and it was really hard to cut one wheel. I will check out Sears.

I appreciate your thoughts.

Ravi Newman motor

Guys Ravzz wanted me to post these:

Thats a pretty cool Thing from Ravi.
Newman wrote something too, that he got Spikes to 10 000V, where his Motor works.
Now he only need to put a load on the Shaft,
and maybe he collect some of the Spikes with 4-5Diodes parallel from the Coil (-Coil to Diodes -> +Cap, -Cap to +Source, Bedini Style) or from an other inductive Coil. More Diodes, to catch more from the Spikes.
But i still think about, that there is a Relation between the thickness of Wires and the Strenght of the Spikes and the Input.
High Voltage must not be high load. :-/

[uusedman]

I am getting probably much much more spikes. I have wounded a coil that is about 9 miles long, 32 gauge. As Newman stated, the smaller and the longer. I believe his motor was in the thousands of miles long.

Check my Video to see the spikes like how Ravzz is getting.

YouTube - Newman Motor Medium 1-7

All I am doing in the video is open and closing circuit no batteries involved. When I ran the rotor in the same process, I put myself in parallel to the motor, I got Spiked! You can feel very well.

He he, so you basically say, the high Spikes got enough Power.

About the Cap, the Energy need a Storage. Just with the Coil it dont work.
When you close the Circuit, you get Energy from the Magnets and Coil and from the Cap.
That is, why it cause better Sparks for me.

And it depends at the Storage how much Energy it can hold.
A Car batterie seems works better for me then small 1,5 one, but i have lesser turns and about #25 Wire.

[uusedman]

What would be an ideal CAP I should use?

I purchased ten 6000V 480 and 600 MicroFarids Caps, When I place them instead of the 500V, there is not much Spark happening on the commutator. What does that mean?

[Joit]

Maybe they are to big with 400µF at this Voltage?
Or they need longer time, that you load them, and they can spit some Energy out.
What i know from Caps is, they do make a short when they dont have much Load in it, so most Energy is maybe lost between + and -.

I would need to try too, wich one works better, higher or lower Farads.
Maybe you try to put them in Serie or parallel.

I did connect last Days a Pice Iron to my Coil, and lead the Current through it.
Iron gives still higher Spikes, when you lead it through, and it did tickle me bad.


@uusedman how does your Motor works now, do the Batteries keep the charge or still lost some?

[uusedman]

why did u connect a piece of iron? pls explain

[Joit]

I did explain it.
A Pice of Iron gives higher Spikes connected additional
I did take a Generator from a Motorbike apart and they did lead the current for the Spark through the Iron from the coil too.
Its like a buffer.

[uusedman]

hmmm. u learn something new everyday. I am guessing that the piece of Iron is connected in series.

[Joit]

Yes, it is in Serie, but i am still not sure where, and allways change it.
But mostly i place it before Minus after the Coil, sometimes before the Commutator sometimes after.
In parallel it would make more a Short, when current runs over the Iron and over the Coil, low resistance of the Iron.
I still play around with it with empty Batts and the Coils and connections, when it start run again.

[Joit]

Connecting the Comutator to plus seems does increase charging too.
Seems i runs now with 3 Batts in Serie nice.

[Joit]

Little Update.

I did put 5 Diodes in Serie from Minus to Plus, what seems give the Runbatt charge.
I made a Coil with 10/7 Windings back, that its actually 3/4 counterwinding from the first Layer.
Its one Coil one Side of the Shaft, winding Direction away from Shaft is Counterclockwise, turning Direction of the Motor CCW too, but still on Test.

Its connected now like
'-' to Commutator, -> Shaft -> Coil start outside -> Coil start inside to Plus.

The funny thing, i did connect couple AA Batts and some more 7,5 Gel only with the Minus to Minus from my Run, and seems, that charge them slow up too.
Runbatt is charging slowly, and sometimes it stops, but its back with more Power after a While, and i started with it no Power in it.
Seems its better, you use for Run a good conditioned Batt, what can be faster loaded.
And i still have a Load beside, even when its only a Ferritcore close.

Edit And looks like a Inductive Coil is a good Way to catch the Spikes, i did get 2 Spikes per Round at a Led.
