Hi Guys!

I made a video of my setup, is my first one!

i putted some lamps of 60w others of 100w, all in series with a fan/ventilator of 100W... i putted the fan in the end of the sequence going to ground, because it haves a capacitor of 230V, i was affraid it can blow up if it takes all the primary voltage! 2 lamps in the video are not lighting well, but i think it was some problem with them!

this thing can feed all type of devices, not only lamps!

and it is not so spooky as at seems, when the adrenaline goes up, the fear fades! spectacular!

my output dont work well with dc, as you can see, dont used any caps!

dont took measurements because my DMM cannot read alternate current, only dc...

This vid is dedicated to the portuguese team in the worldcup, that win today 7-0 against North Korea

Enjoy! YouTube - KAPAGEN REPLICA - JJ

I highly recommend a fly back transformer. It's less dangerous and it can handle high frequencies.

Having repaired tv's at one stage I know that for this particular setup the current from line output transformers just won't cut it! If we were working with SR's setup, then yeah, maybe.

SR is not using any HV flyback driver.. at least you cant see any at the video...

If you plug in the mot and it only draws a small amount of power then it's most likely fine. As soon as you load the secondary the primary inductance drops considerably and forces it to draw high amperage. Most likely the resistance of the heaters are way to low to operate at a reasonable level with the mot at that high of voltage. Also, why the bulbs blew out. In order to drop the voltage on the secondary you need to string many lights together to help drop the voltage. To bring the voltage down to 220 volts you would need 9 bulbs of around 480 ohms each in series with an end result of around 4400 ohms total resistance. With a 2000 volt output / 4400 ohms you would have about .45 amps running through the bulbs which is fairly easy for the mot to produce on the output.

Edit: Also you could use a variac to control input and/or capacitors in series with the line input to the primary.

Well I know (now) that there's nothing wrong with the primary (phoned an uncle to do resistance tests on two MOT's he has lying about). The secondary readings he took make no sense so I'll have to check myself in a day or so. I didn't mention it but after 5min on-time, while the MOT is too hot to touch, you can put you finger on the glass-tube-encased heater elements and they are barely warm - so I fail to see how they could be the culprit, particularly since there is 'only' 300-400W being used for an 800W transformer! Even if it was supplying its rated capacity, it shouldn't get as hot as it gets I would have thought. I have also tried another 1.5KW bar-heater in series (so 2.5KW) - same current draw, same overheating. As playing with more light bulbs without surge-suppressors (which I've ordered) is silly, my next best option is to try another MOT.

No, but he's not replicating a Kapagen either - his S.G is tiny in comparasion!

btw, nice video! Do you have a way of measuring the input power? Also, would you know the DC resistance of the fan you have in series!

PS - Great result for the Portuguese though not great to watch - unless you're from Portugal of course! I actually felt sorry for the N. Korean team with the hammering they were getting...

[juju]

hmmm

thanks sproket! are you talking of the S.G. from SR? the spark gap looks more like plasma... dont seem very HV!

i will try to buy an analog alternated amp meter tomorrow, i can try to measure with my DMM, but it only reads dc amps, so i dont nowhow much accurate will it be...

i will measure the resistance of the fan and i will post it tomorrow!

yeah im portuguese.. i did enjoy it a lot! now its time to eat the brasilians! by the way.. im loving the games by the americans.. bad luck in the last game, they diserve more, very good players!

cheers

EDIT: sory, just get it now, your were talking of dragon, all thanks to dragon to.. hug

???

Plasma or Sparks are always High Voltage, how else could the air between 2 conductors be ionized?
SR uses about 3-5 KV of High voltage for his SG at approximately 3-5 mA,

...

i think i have not expressed myself very well...

what i wanted to say, is that the spark of SR, dont look like violent action of very HV! we can make a plasma discharge very similar to SR or kapanadze, with only 12V input... Without transformers, just an exiter!

its possible that the concept maybe was misunderstood! all the people that win de goal can blynd us all, make us search dead ends with missinformation...

how do you know that about SR for shore?

you r acting kind cold with me, i hope there are no hard feellings between us during the role of this thread! hugs

No hard feelings
About SR, it is what he posted on nextenergy forum.
The "violence" you refer to in the spark is related to a high current.
In Naudin“s device he has not mA but amps jumping the gap.
But since that“s his only energy path it is probably needed that high, he has no low voltage component.

But nothing wrong to experiment with low current HV / plasma, i agree.

Is there some difference by using more distance between copper rods?. I can see that you have ver less than 10 meter there.

You switch off the source and circuit work well, that explains why the variac is needed only to sustain the circuit.

Congrats

You might consider getting one of those Energy Meters, (I have one plugged into the wall socket in my pic) I bought 2 as they're very useful - they're only about 15 euro...

This schematic of fight4truth is highly relationed to copper rod inside air coil. This circuit seems get power from the ground and recoverted to light bulbs and recharge batterķes.

thanks for the sugestion sprocket, but for that price i thank i can by other kind of equipment that i can use in other projects that dont take power from the grid also.

dont had chance to get one today...

my fan resistance, is between 400 and 700 ohm, it haves 3 speeds, low, med & high!

hi patmac

that diagram describes a bedini motor.. its different from the device we are replicating here,

[vidbid]

Has anybody seen this schematic of the Kapanadze device?

FYI, the chip in the frequency generator module is a 555.



Also, I hear that the transformer module had a slotted copper tube in it, covered by ferrite cores.

This video shows construction of one of these slotted copper tubes with covering ferrite cores. Very interesting effect.
