Ricksl, I had a think about what I thought you meant and do remember a vid with a solar panel, that changed LED colours from Lidmotor's brilliant videos...so, I dragged out my old 12V automotive battery solar panel and hooked it up, straight to the little Wensleydale tower and C3198 based circuit.
She runs ! with good wireless field
YouTube - Solar powered wireless energy
Great circuit there Slayer. It didn't use a bit of juice at all then ?!
Mixing your latest circuit with a quality solar panel, it could give 24/7 wireless energy for as long as the rechargeable battery took to corrode in places like California !!!
Jonny, those transformer looking inductors are very interesting. I must have several of them around here, thinking they were transformers. I guess they are ? but not wound the same. Audio transformer type ? 4 pins instead of 5.
*edit* sorry, I didn't address your question. An airship is a great idea ! I personally have no expectations of the final results, except to have something flying by wireless electricity and that it looks like the UFO on the cover of ELO's Out Of The Blue album. However, i've no helium or whatever so that would be a problem. I like the idea of the cap bank though too (recently ran my Bertha double pop bottle on 12V, with single pop bottle a few inches away, which had half a dozen 300uF 250V caps in parallel feeding from the top end of the smaller ones coil. After 20 seconds of charging, it produced bangs big enough to bring my wife into the room and tell me to not kill myself !)

This is just a follow up from the last video.
The first 12 hours it was just the 9 leds.Then I added the other 39 leds for the last 12 hours.
After running 24 hours the run battery is still 1.26v from 1.35v.

johnny if im not mistaken the inductors lidmotor is using is a part from electronics goldmine that i looked into, there on sale right now 4 for one dollar but im not sure about their shipping policy overseas though.
1000uH Axial Lead Inductor (Pkg of 4)-The Electronic Goldmine
also does anyone know how lidmotor's solar on off circuit works i am completely lost as to how the transistor is triggered and stays off what that led (or whatever it might be) that dosn't appear to light up does. sorry to be a bother to the people who actually know what their doing.Last edited by ricksl; 04-16-2011, 02:46 AM.

@ Jonny
Great idea with the old cfl parts.
@ All
In this test I remover the led indicator light and replaced it with the small choke exciter.
The primary is inplace of the led and the choke is connected to the collector of the transistor.

Slayer choke exciter with cfl parts
Hi .I tried the jameco 22uh chokes and did not have much luck but i wil try again when i get a variable cap a good friend is sending me so i had a look for some other inductors to try and found cfl bulbs to be a good source.There are small ones and large square ones which look like a transformer but they are inductors and both work quite well.
Here is a vid of a 3mh choke and the square one.Jonny

@Slider.I bet your feeling a bit like Orville wright just about now .Great first flight and things can only get better
Have you considered an airship?This way you can carry a more substantial reciever circuit and maybe a cap bank or are your plans for heavier than air craft.Great stuff.Jonny.

Cheers guys, i'm hoping to look back on those little hops in the same way I do with a wireless energy experiment of some months ago. Just had a ferrite bar with some winds on it and an LED would light at about 1/8th inch away. It took about 12V just for that hehe. So Wisp at the moment is just a simple shadow of intentions.
The whole project is called Project Twilight and, if you know ELO 's music, you can guess what the goal flying machine is intended to be for July 10th ! Just check the 'Out Of The Blue' album cover.
Silly story about the music on the vid - Secret Messages was intended to fit with the first radio control signals via wireless electricity, but my wife walked in during that run and said she was off to Walmart. So, rather than hunt around at 1am in the night for something else to cover our chatting, I put the song with it
Jiffycoil has a cool system there. So interesting how he has the wire going to the Stiffler Tower..and the theramin effects with a metal bar makes ones mind whir a bit.

Ladies and gents,

Wireless electricity powering an aircraft into the air
Hoppity really is name and nature, simply hopping up and down and admittedly quite rubbish. But this is a start, the start of wireless electric flight.
Details of Hoppity are, 3 turn 30 gauge coil receiver, to 4x Schottky clear diodes as bridge rectifier and a 10uF capacitor to smooth. 6mm motor, helicopter rotor. Weight is 6 grams.

WISP Now the world Know it came from you Slider
Check out TROS channel
Maybe if you increase the current flow
It can lift sky high lol
the better background music
I believe I can Fly
This is the starting point
The point to somewhere out there
keep it up man
cheers

Hey Slide,
Well done.
We all gotta start somewhere
Hows about an antennae "tuned" for your chopper?? (the right length of wire)
Just a thought

Hi slider, cool videos and electric air stuff. I have an electric glider, been flying them for some time, though i like the idea of the cheaper small stuff.
Speaking of UFO's, in your second video called nano sized, at 43 seconds in video, in sky on left, looks like an odd cloud to me, maybe it's more than a cloud.
peace love light

I wouldn't mind checking that myself Penno..hopefully Slayer can oblige, or Lidmotor (if he leaves out his nuclear fission capacitor chain reactive Bedini motor section LOL).
Ah, Totoalas, Wi Wi sounds a little strange to English ears, mine anyway...my stuff has the name of Wisp, Wireless Interactive Spatial Power. Wisp enabled devices are the clock, the radio, a TV remote, aircraft and whatever else.
Been building and trialing some aircraft. At first will be simple helicopter/UFO types. All is on a zero budget, so it's challenging. In fact though, this video is something I made not long ago that is sort of what i'm looking to build at first - it was built to emulate those silly wobbling UFO's seen on YouTube videos:
YouTube - ELO - Electric Levitating Object
Then, for livingroom flying, something like this one that was built last summer:

Under 10mA on your latest circuit...I can imagine manufacturers of LED's writing 'Current Consumption - 23mA, er, unless wireless Slayer circuits are used and then who the heck knows'
Totoalas, yeah, sorry for some vagueneness, with very little in the way of test equipment, vague will come along.
To replicate, here's the biggest tip - turn the tower upside down
Where we normally have a field emanating strongest from the top, it's now at the bottom. The placement of devices around a tower then allows much more transferral.
If your phone lit for 5 seconds, it was showing power, but not enough of it was coming through and so the phone powered down. I have an ancient Nokia that does that and forms a good test meter, if that one works, others will. Charge time appears to be similar to the wall adapters...but all half dozen phones came from Freecycle and no batteries are less than 4 years old.
Receive side is 4x 1N4148 size clear Schottky's (very low forward voltage drop) and capacitor is a 10uF electrolytic. Receive coil is 2 turns of approx 26 gauge copper, of exact diameter as the tower.
That tower is made from 2" PVC plumbing pipe, wound with approx 24 gauge copper from a PC monitor degauss coil. 1 full coil bringing along one full exciter coil
The L1 is 1 turn of speaker hook-up wire, approx 20 gauge.
Now I have to dig and recycle my 50 coils ....
will work on it this weekend before the Holy Week Lenten season
Just Imagine where this will go
Riding a jeepney (Us jeep converted in ww2)
The driver gives the receiver and all your gadgets charged up on your journey from laptop to ipod 1pad cell phone etcccccccc.....

Great work guys.
Would one of you be kind enough to post a simple circuit that
will work with the 6 turn over the 1000uH choke.
I would dearly like to build one of these.
Kindest Regards, Penno
