trying to get away from that series filter

It is not really a filter. When the transistor pair output is positive then electrons are pulled through the transformer to the opposite capacitor plate. When the transistor pair output is ground then there is no longer a positive charge to hold the electrons in the capacitor and they return to ground through the transformer. The result is electrons going back and forth through the transformer.

Thanks... It's all learning... for me... very fun! You'll have to excuse my ignorance, I'm not sure what I've built today, so I'm calling it the Kybrator. I'm sure it's basic text book stuff! You tell me! I was studying up, preparing to build a flip flop inverter like Lidmotors / Incroyables. This ain't that (or is it?!), but: it's fairly low draw, and met my goals for the evening.. so it was a success for me, anyway! One more step...

12VDC -120VAC Mini Inverter Circuit for AC LED lamps 12.3V / 175mA (2.15 watts)

* I switched to a TIP42C, higher output -- but it seems to be a bit of a noisy circuit. Perhaps TIP31C would work well with this.

The sine wave module sounds interesting, though wouldn't the output be limited to that little board.

I think it's only 1v peak to peak, so it'd need some amplification, is that what you mean?

thanks eshan for your perseverance still cannot find the 2 x 10 nf 250 v any alternative for the big cap 3300 is it non polarized dc capacitor????

were almost there
happy experimenting

Hi totoalas

Yes the 3300nf cap 350v is polarized capacitor (E32D401HPN332ME92M) and here is the link

Digi-Key - 565-3297-ND (Manufacturer - E32D401HPN332ME92M)

Good experimenting

"555" Timer Circuit

Trying to do my homework on the “555” Timer Circuit, I came across this site with some very good information and calculators for resistor and capacitor values.
http://home.cogeco.ca/~rpaisley4/LM555.html
Scroll down to the section labeled “LM555 – ASTABLE OSCILLATOR CALCULATOR,” and this can tell you what the output frequency will be for different component values. This site explains the reason for connecting pins 4 and 5 (reset and voltage control) as well.

I have found this to be a valuable resource and hope others do as well.

Hi folks, Hi kcarring, I guess I wasn't thinking, yes we would just use an amplifier circuit, just like an audio amp.
I'm so used to building only square wave pulse circuits, don't think I've ever built an amplifier, always a first time, if that time should come for whatever reason, hehe.

That's quite the home page! Nice find.

That's a good one. Have you ever seen George Wiseman's High Output Capcitive Power Supply for HHO? It's an interesting read too. He lives down the way from me, he builds Brown's Gas Torches (among other things), he likes using 220v. He is a guru of using capacitive power supplies to get a perfect match and voltage to his electrolysing plates, keeping current to minimum. Pretty bright fellow he is!

When it comes to center taps in a transformer...

I really needed to "see the pciture", I found this DIY article helpful:
HOW TO WIND YOUR OWN AUDIO TRANSFORMERS

In regards to Toroids... I have tried to wind one, and I've never had any luck. Does anyone know the permeability number on that special toroid lasersaber has... was there a number?

[ehsanco1062]

Hi Patrick

I did complete the solid state Patrick build but I use 5uf 250v multi capacitors (15 caps ) and I am using 220uf 400v and I am using tip 31c transistor and I have 26AWG trigger wire and seven 23AWG slave coils and I am using 6x1n4007 collector to(-) batt. Diodes and 100 ohm base resistors but I did not used diodes from emitter to base and I use 7.2 AH as a primary battery and 117.2AH as charging bank battery and I use set of 180 1w resistor +1k ohm 0.25 pot instead of 5k ohm pot and I start it one hour ago and its charging so if I will use the same setup you did I am sure the result will be the same you have so congratulation you are the man of the hour and I think everybody here should try and see himself and don’t west your time on something else and here is the field where we can get real result of free energy so from now and on I will focus on this setup and try to get the thing I always dream of the free energy .

Thank you Patrick for shearing your great work with us and not forget Laser Saber.

Good experimenting

thanks for the HHO info, I will come back to that after your charger is finished
As for the toroid, I found one 10 cm dia by 40 cm height 15 0 15 230 v ac transformer toroid which definitely increase the 220 v ac led lamp output
Will post the vid next

Shanco
Great result .... will follow your data thanks i have 6 3.3 uf and only the neons are missing hope to post the results also....

Had some good success today, been studying The Incroyables Flip Flop Inverter, Lidmotor's replication, Magnetman's work + I was building a George Wiseman HHO unit, and so I took the small PWM I had built, hooked that to the FLIP FLOP instead of using voltage regulation or a rheostat and it appears to be working out very nice! 12.6V X .385 mA (4.85 watts) drives (3) 2 watt AC LEDs very bright (in parallel) with easy dimming, no heat issues.

Given that I simply joined the two circuits, it needs some simplification, and I found all the parts in the garbage, so there are some input/output mismatches on the FETs, but nonetheless it works well, and it's a start to a good "dimmable inverter" that uses PWM to effectively change the RMS voltage, without "low voltage" dropout.




I made a few changes to the PWM and it works even better, then, I played around with finding sweetspots, different frequencies matched to different pulse widths and got the current very low for an inverter, possibly around 20 mA! Fun stuff, build one of these, but build it better... we need to get the pulse width modifiable within the flip flop, and keep the frequency @ whatever! Despite the (measured - who knows how accurate that is, all I know is the lowest I've seen before was 40 volts at this brilliance - given all the variables it is really only a benchmark against previous readings) AC voltage on the lamp of only 23 volts AC, it stays lit reasonably bright like about a 7 watt incandescent night light.



@totoalas Cool! Where did you find that torid, I haven't been able to find one. I'd like to hook this circuit up to a lasersabre toroid or even something high speed, ya know?

I'd like to try this PWM on Bedini, and power the PWM with a solar charged AA in one of those step up cell chargers. See if it'll charge a 6v or something.

The toroid , I got from an old amplifier its actually a transformer built on a toroid .... I think they are common part of high watts amplifier ......
15 0 15 / 230 v 50 hz ..... Will post tomorrow the video

I will try the flip flop inverter on an old microwave transformer , the question is to go your way pwm / 555 or the french inverter .... Need to wind three 23 ga wire for the trigger / input

Can somebody please re post the AUTO LIGHT JOULE RINGER circuit FROM LIDMOTOR

Hi Kyle,

That last video of yours is megga impressive.

May we please have a circuit ? (including the PWM)

Thanks, Garry
