  • Hi folks,
    @totoalas, I'm using power supply because I am needing to rejuvenate my batteries a bit, it seems my older radiant charger was not outputting enough voltage and so was not desulphating the batteries as well as it should have over time. One 7AH battery has already gained 6 watt hours capacity with only a couple cycles.
    Though the one I'm using now, does that very well. Also, I'm using a 100uf-100volt ac capacitor on base trigger.
    I also tried 2-5.6uf 160vac in parallel and that worked well also, though the 100 uf gives a little more kick.
    I use image shack and there is an embed in forum code line and that is copy and pasted into message to get pic to show up.
    @kcarring, my coil is 7 strands, 23awg, 4.6 ohms per strand, 1 trigger strand, 3 strands per transistor, only using two transistors at the moment.
    They are 400 volt-80watt transistors. My coil dimensions are 2" wide X 3" tall with 5/8" diameter ferrite core from audio crossovers.

    totoalas, that setup looks good.
    peace love light

      Has anyone seen my Bedini Ceiling Fan that pushes the warm air down, and charges batteries as an added bonus? Me neither. 'Bout time I made one!!!!! :P

        Hi Kyle
        If am to top off the primary batt 12 v 7AH consuming 267 mA for charging for example 500 Ah batteries what size/ watts of solar panel can I use for Mobile charger like in a Car or a bus ??????
        thanks,

          • Hi folks, oops my last post, first comments were meant for @ehsan, i was getting tired last night, hehe.
            Hi totoalas, as long as the solar panel can maintain its voltage and not sag below whatever voltage your radiant charger requires.
            So 4 watts sounds right for 267 milliamps draw.

              thanks tyson
              One solar panel 10 by 20 cm 5 watts from China surely fits your recommendation

              Happy holidays

                Hi tyson
                Hi Tyson
                Thank you for your response
                Because I don’t have even 1 uf 250v ac I used the alternative but I can never be sure that I am getting the result I hope. Also I find that using an air core coil getting butter result than the ferrite core or welding rod coil.
                What type of transistor you are using now?
                I will show you another circuit to play with



                And here is the videos regarding that circuit

                I think you should see these videos
                He is also using the diode and cap modification

                Thank for your help with uploading pictures

                Good luck

                  Is that really 100" or was that a typo and should read 100'. For strand length.

                  Thanks.

                  • Hi folks, Hi ehsan, I'm using the st13007 npn salvaged from something, can't remember, hehe.
                    TRANSISTOR PWR NPN FAST HV TO220 - ST13007

                    Something besides the wire length typo doesn't look right with that circuit diagram you posted ehsan, though i get the idea and have tried a version of that, though not with the cap diode addition.
                    The negative going to transistor bases might be a problem with that circuit, need to switch polarities around on input and charge batteries or just use the positive going to base instead of negative.
                    Also, Having experimented with similar circuits, one should go by how long the batteries power a load, no matter how good it appears the batteries have charged.

                      Amen to that statement. The Bedini circuit has frustrated me to almost quitting, given my "fluffy charge" results. I haven't given up yet though. I can't count the number of times I thought I had the right configuration, thought I was in the high 80's or even 90's for efficiency, only to see that despite a battery "holding" it's status (overnight for example) of 12.6-12.8 volts > the "power" wasn't there. Upon loading with a 10 watt or 20 watt Halogen Lamp, the cycle wasn't there; not like it'd be there with conventional or a solar charge. But I'll keep trying, ready to give it another shot, dug it out of the corner so to speak!

                      • Batteries.

                        I just sent a used Interstate lead acid battery to the junk yard that read 12.45 volts, but would'nt supply enough power to honk the horn.

                          you are absolutely wright about that but i think this man also working for so long on this circuit until he came out with the modification maybe he took it from Patrick or maybe they both think about that at the same time any way the best way is to replicate and get result and make comparing between the two experiments.

                          By the way did you try the air core coil and also make the comparing with this circuit because i have noticed that the air core give a good result.
                          Thank you

                          • Hi folks, Hi ehsan, is that your circuit or is it a translation.
                            It still looks to have issues, that diode on first transistor should probably go after 1kohm pot, because if thats the circuit from those videos you posted, it sounded like that's where it goes.
                            Otherwise, would have to test to see if it oscillates.
                            I have tried some air coils in the past, though not any multistrand meant for a radiant charger, I seem to recall that the charging was weaker, though again I probably did not make a good enough coil for the job.
                            What is the information on your air-coil and what kind of power are you inputting, thanks. And have you built that tesla switch variant that you posted.

                              Hi folks, I decided to wind an air core coil to test following ehsan's suggestion.
                              It is 24 awg., 5 strand, 1 trigger strand, 2 strands per transistor.
                              It is drawing the same current that my other coil did at around 360 milliamps and seems to be charging just as well or better and the frequency is higher.
                              Load testing will see if it is just as good or better.
                              here is a pic of the setup.

                                Hi Tyson

                                The circuit is not mine and as I told you this man has been working on this circuit for more than 6 months and finally he did the video I post it yesterday.
                                Here is the original circuit and I just did the modification on the circuit according to what he said in his video



                                And as I said he is using 16AWG wire.

                                Good luck with your new air core coil
