8 circuit board installation and operation

[Walter Alpizar]

monopole generator is running.
setup is:
power and trigger coil functioning, seems to be turning slow
5 coils generating, but seems to have a slow charge.
when I disconnect charging battery, leds do not light up.
any ideas?

what do you mean L E D's do you mean neons?
need specifications.

Yes, sorry about that NEON lights.
I also found that while turning, the motor coil is getting warm, and the core is pretty hot.
Anybody has an schematic of the 8 circuit board sold by r-charge, where I can actually see how is connected to the various components?
Can not get any info from r-charge except an incomplete schematic.

[Tom C]

you have a transistor that is shorted closed, maybe several. a hot coil means current is flowing continuosly thru the circuit, not being switched. have you built a single transistor SG? the circuit is exactly the same but multiplied, sharing a common trigger.

I have several of these 8 circuit boards that I use in a solid state setup. If you want I will make a video showing how to connect them.

Cool..i love to see mate!!thx for your time and kindness i can learn a lot.. cheers

I uploaded a video showing the basic wiring of the 8 circuit SSG board:

And one of the oscilloscope output:

I will post some more when I get a cap dump circuit working. I am also going to setup voltage monitoring on input battery, cap bank, and output battery.

Here is another video with simple cap pulse discharge.

Bluestix,

What made you decide to run the coil with the core in it? would love to see the performance inprove if you got rid of all those TINY wires and alligator clips. Great build thanks for sharing!!

I just haven't taken the core out of the coil yet. I am going to do that next and see if I can increase the pulse frequency.

Now that I have a working prototype I am going to put together a better version with all soldered and bolted connections using shorter wires. Also going to hook up the earth ground. I am going to try putting a few more capacitors in parallel too.

Thanks for the help.

I removed the core and it runs much better. It's quieter and I can run it much faster. It's running about 750hz now.

bluestix, if you really want to see that machine sing and dance you should change the circuit to the solid state circuit in the patent and let the coil oscillate at it's resonant frequency. It should be about 2.5kHz.

patent?

Hi John. Where would one (or many) be able to access the patent and what would I look for? My solid state unit only runs at 1khz.

Clyde,

I would Google "john bedini patent" and see what comes up.

Hi John. Yes there are several thousand hits. Could you be a little more specific please? You said "bluestix, if you really want to see that machine sing and dance you should change the circuit to the solid state circuit in the patent and let the coil oscillate at it's resonant frequency. It should be about 2.5kHz." This sounds specific but does not explain what you mean, or where to find the answer you suggest.
