Hi Bob,
Could you take a screen shot of Hob's 4 Modes and edit in the missing Diode? Thanks in advance if you will, or show me where to. Hob's is the only place i see all 4 side by side, and if one of them is wrong, please help me fix my notes.

I do not want to mark up another mans work but it is very simple. The diode would be on the negative rail from the charge neg to the emitter bus.
Mr. Lindemann covers it in his 3rd SSG advanced book and it is also shown by Mr. Bedini in the 2013 conference video. In the book it is used in conjunction with a cap dump but you do not need a cap dump, meaning it is not necessary but you can run with or without one depending on what you are trying to achieve.
I am going by memory here but I think this is how the "Mode" terms originally came out.
Mode 1 -- Normal SSG that everyone starts on and was the only mode anyone knew about accept maybe a few,,, Patrick comes to mind here.
Mode 2 -- Same circuitry as mode 1 accept a cap dump was added.
Mode 3 -- Generator mode (common ground,, parallel instead of series) This is the one I was talking about with the diode.
Mode 4 -- Generator mode with cap dump, almost same as mode 3 but a cap dump/comparator is used.
