Donald L Smith

Hello Zeno,

First of all, i would like to get a feel of resonance with huge capacitance and small inductunce, as per Don Smith devices (the poorer type of resonance per Tesla). My initial results are confirming this.

Specifically, my circuit pulses at 25 volt, true, but it applies the potential only to 2 turns out of 50 or so. Theoretically, the LC could get as much as 2000+ volts that way if i am correct. Nowhere near those figures. Especially with larger caps.

I have tried using my NST in that arrangement as i saw and understood Don's device from the high quality photos http://www.energeticforum.com/81735-post207.html Absolutely nothing happened that way.

My next experiments are to try Tesla's circuits for prolonging ringing in the primary LC using HV from NST (shock excitation) Suggested circuits are depicted below.

@ marxist,

The ground usage for max amperage, i expressed it in another context. That of a Tesla coil with one terminal capacity that creates the condition for a maximum oscillating current back and forth as a pump. In Smith's setup, ground cannot perform that function. At least as i see it.

It`s probably a good idea checking out some of Teslaīs colorado springs circuits.

Sorry, from your circuit diagram it looked like a single coil which could impossibly turn 25 volt to 2000+ volt across its terminals.
It seems unlikely that while the parts of that coil are connected you would see a voltage rise, because the magnetic fields donīt arrange like in a typical transformer that way, but keep testing that.

Hmm.. actually with the 2.2 and still better 1.1 nf, in this arrangement i managed to fire a spark gap across the capacitor of 0.25mm. I estimate 500-600 volts in that case. This only happens with the small caps and still far from kilovolt range.

Does capacitor at L2 tell you something ?

[baroutologos]

@Bogus,

In that particular arrangement, it nearly tell me nothing.

[baroutologos]

i resumed experimenting with the tesla suggested methods for enhanced resonance. Saved from setups details, i saw myslef how hard is to get any considerable resonance effect using large capacitance and isignifficant inductunce.

At best a hundred volts or so managed to have my 250nf caps across a 5uh Don Smith like coil at an expense of almost 40 watts input. A loop of wire with a bulb attached could not be brought to incadescence.

Several things tried and i ran out of ideas. I tend to think this is not the way to go...

Not just yet, but somehow I'm thinking that you may have more to share???

[boguslaw]

hmm..power factor correction ?

see at the end the presentation.
One plate of capacitor is stroked with spark from Tesla coil, the other plate drain electrons from ambient source.
it is only possible when spark is positive unidirectional. Without power correction energy is oscillating back and forth in AC transformer.But here energy must go only forward and impulses after rectification must combine creating much higher one which acts like in presentation. The center tap is connected to the source of ambient electrons and big oil capacitors are recharged in a millisecond or less.

Half the capacitive!!!!

I just saw that in all of the vid the L2 capacitor is just half the microfarad of the L1...

I gest that it help the circuit to resonnate...

Xeno,
I love this guys projects,
I am sure there are insites with translations.

He actually doesnīt say much that isnīt already known, i think i have posted a translation of it on overunity.com or someone has.
Tthe russian free energy communities are pretty far ahead when it comes to experimenting with Tesla coils and energy transfer.

Because talking is always easy, i challenge thee, to resonate a Don's smith secondary of say 10-20uh with a cap of 47nf at Kilovolt range with a small NST's output...

@baroutologos: Good attitude, honestly.

You DO actively experiment, others talk.
Would it be possible for you to draw an accurate COMPLETE circuit diagram of your whole current set-up, so it is easier to evaluate the processes and possibly give you improvement tips?
Your previous posted diagrams were hard to understand and only showed parts of the circuit unfortunately.
Also, what equipment do you use to measure the secondary frequency/resonance?
Keep it up.

question

Do somebody know what is the frequency of a lowglow pro serie
transformer?
I tried to find on internet and nothing came up..
Thanks
