Which Radiant Charger for small rechargeables

[Spearmaster]

I note that Renaissance Charge markets several battery chargers. The smallest (RC-2A12) is for 12V batteries, the next (RCA-1U) is for smaller rechargeable Ni-Cd and Ni-MH batteries and for small lead-acid batteries. They also market an industrial size charger along with a couple of electric vehicle chargers that will go all the way up to 142 volts.

My possibly dumb question is this; In your opinion, which of the radiant chargers that we have access to here, either Bedini's or someone else's, is closest to the RCA-1U model for small rechargeables? I’m sure that any of these chargers will work with any battery to a certain extent, but which would be the best for small rechargeables, and why?

Thanks,
Carl

It is a black art I think. You wouldn't know until you built it. But once you built it, you can change it's power by controlling the coil resistance, the winding part that its current collapse being utilized.

To try it, put the battery that need to be charge in circuit. If the voltage exceed it's capacity plus 2 , it is not safe. Try with light first, for 1.5 Volt battery the circuit should not have burn 3 volt battery.

I've built two chargers from the schematic on page 47 of the Free Energy Generation book by Bearden/Bedini. Both of them put out waveforms that have spikes in excess of 200VDC, and they both seem to charge 12V batteries with no problem. Sometimes, they both seem to charge the small rechargeables, but sometimes they won't.

The question I'm asking is; which available circuit from Bedini (or whoever), for radiant battery chargers, is best for small rechargeables, and why.

Does an SG with a bicycle wheel work better for small rechargeables?
Does a solid state monopole work better for small rechargeables?
Do either of the above work better with an air core?, ..with an iron core?.., with a rotor? Or is there some other specific unit that works best with small rechargeables?

Thanks,
Carl

You have to consider the current too. You need current to charge battery to avoid fluffy charge / surface charging.

My current circuit can fill up 10000uF capacitor in seconds. I need to put 1.5V battery in series with 12V gel battery to avoid exploding.

I can sucessfully charge non broken, only short lived, small rechargable battery. Restore 3 different brand so far.

hi carl,
joule thief charger best for charging small batteries!!!
i have build a joule thief charger and it reallyworks great and rechargs all of my batteries from 1.5v aaa to 12v 7 amp ups battery...it even desulphates and put few of my 5 years old nicd battery back to life...
i am using a cell phone charger as a source and by putting 3 in4007 diode twisted in parallel connected in series to the cell phone charger supply....
heres the link to information---


http://www.energeticforum.com/renewa...#post54850also have another charger circuit it charges hell lot faster

Which Radiant Charger?

Hello,
The smallest (RC-2A12) is for 12V batteries and works with a minimum 9V.
I bought one and inside they added a small caution letter:

"ATTENTION, battery must be at 9Volts or higher to begin charging. Lower voltages will not allow the charger to turn on"

So you can't charge small batteries, it just for car batteries ...

I'm going to Asia to try this charger, there many people use batteries to get a few hours of light in their houses ... and saving on buying new battery regularly would be an important economy.

In developped countries this technology should be used on solar installation where the higher maintenance cost is to change the batteries every few years.

Also very important they say that this charger can increase the battery's capacity by 75% after 35 cycles !

Good luck

Hi Carl,

I made my small solid state battery charger using a modified SSG circuit. I simply removed the 1N4001 diode (this makes it solid state) and then added the tesla impulse circuit that was shown in EFTV 7. I tuned the circuit so that I am only getting 100 - 150mA on the output.

This allows me to charge both rechargable and non-rechargable batteries of any voltage (up to 36V) in a very short time. I have a 3V 2,400mAh NiMh battery pack and it fully recharges from dead in just over 30min. It works well and it was cheep.

I've attached my schematic incase you want to try it.

Cheers,

Steve

Universal Charger

The 1AU works perfect for AAA up to 24v batteries.

I have had incredible results with it charging everything from a single AAA battery up to my lawnmower 24v/20ah battery bank.

You lucky lucky ..

I tried charging a 12v bank of niCad 1.5v aa's with a self oscillating imhotep fan, and they started leaking fluid after 10min, so keep an eye on it for the first few runs at least

[Stealth]

I built 2 different units using the Tesla switch configuration. One is for 1.5 Volt rechargeables, and the other is for 9 volt rechargeables. After doing some tests, I found that I could charge any batteries of that voltage. It will charge any 1.5 and 9 volt battery. I have not bought any batteries for a while now. Good Luck. Stealth

Modified SSG with tesla impulse circuit

Hi all, this my first post.

Have been running the "standard" ssg for weeks now ...

Question to damit (and others) which diode in the attachment to use?
1N4007 or 1N4008 ... thanks in advance.

Bridge Rectifer

Looks like you just use the bridge rectifier instead. The transistor must make it
oscillate. I want to try this one myself.

Would this mean no bike wheel & magnets?

Yes, no wheel or magnets. I have still not got around to trying this, too busy
with another circuit I am working on, but it does look simple. I also have the
advanced SSG kit from r-charge which can be kept in solid state mode without
the wheel or magnets. After burning out the fan kit circuit, I have held off attempting the advanced SSG. But this one is much simpler, with less parts,
and would be a good place to start.

Wow much simpler ... I'll try it during weekend ...thanks
