Hi folks, Hi slayer thanks for sharing your latest circuit, etc. have you tried load testing the charge battery at all.
Hi Kcarring, I agree, I like the way the slayer exciter runs fluorescent bulbs and they probably would last a long time powered this way.
The only issue I have with this circuit, is that when powered with a voltage 12 volts or greater it starts to transmit to speakers and radios, clock radios a good distance away and causes a white noise sound to be emitted from the speakers.
Is there a way to avoid this, I don't know?
peace love light

oops
@slayer
oops, sorry for my english is not my native language. I mean coils. I'm interested on physical dimensions of the coils especially L1 and L3.
Thanks for the quick reply

Some questions:
@slayer
while charging have you left the leds connected?
I guess you have written it a million times, but can you give me the data of the three bobbins ?
Nice work and thanks to all.

Hello Kempis
Yes I have, But it will charge faster without them on the L1 coil.
You can also replace the AV plug with the leds for a load.
Agine it will charge but not as fast as with the AV plug.
I'm not sure what you mean about bobbins?
If you mean the pancake coils they are 9 turns of 21awg plastic coated solid wire.
Here is the circuit I used in the last video.Attached Files

@Kcarring Nice looking setup.
You may allso want to try around 40 leds in series.
With the leds you should be able to get more light at a lower current draw.
@All
In this video I show another Tesla switch setup.
In this setup you can use a smaller run battery to recharge a larger battery.
In the video I used a AA battery to start to recharge a bigger 6v battery.
The start voltage on the run battery was 1.3v and the charge battery was a 6v battery @ 4v.
After running all night the run battery went down to 1v and the charge battery went up to 5.7v.

@kcarring, ist this the circuit in your video?
@kcarring:
Interesting way of connecting the tower to the base of the transistor?
Please check the drawing and tell us if I interpreted the circuit in your video correctly.
The BC338 has a high DC current gain (hFE 100 - 600). May be this is the reason why the current from the capacitor is enough to trigger it.

Mini (under 3" Slayer Exciter Reborn & Running Well
I finally tuned my mini slayer exciter coil to run really well. It's kicking out some pretty darn good light at under a watt. A switch to the BC338 and a 104 cap made all the difference

anyway i want to use the cap to run things the exciter wouldn't normally, like if youve ever seen jiffycoils video were he runs a bedini ssg off of a slayer exciter, he uses a big cap as a reservoir to run a bedini ssg. In the proper configuration caps can allow exciters to drive more than led's, fluorescents, ect and using sidacs or neons as triggers allows you to drive things like small incandescent bulbs (old school but still neat)

Originally posted by ricksl View Postwell today was a tad disappointing for me, i went to the local dump and picked up a broken microwave oven, once i opened it up i saw that the only thing that was broken was a fuse so i hada field day taking parts and such, my greatest find was a high voltage cap. I planed to use it with some sort of exciter like i see everyone do in their vids (ya know the blue ones) to run a bedini motor or something of the sort, but when i looked at the specs i found that it had an internal parallel resistance of ten meg ohms and a disappointingly small capacitance of .94 micro farads... it discharges itself to unusable voltages in seconds
so im wondering does anyone have any suggestions on application in the field of exciters, i figured since it charges so quickly with its sad capacitance i could use a sidac configuration, any suggestions?

The big tower uses very little power.It will even show the current intake as negative some times.
In this video it is running off one rechargable AA battery.

Have you tried any alternative homemade batteries yet? Looks like its got a real low current draw. I reckon its definitely worth a try! Show people that very simple battery setups can be converted to light. Thanks for sharing

@slayer007
Digital meters have problems measuring pulsed power. Try using a large capacitor to the battery negative terminal after the meter. This will reduce the battery current pulses but the circuit can still get pulses from the capacitor.
