Morning everyone or maybe i should say good night, funny Hehe.
@Russ, when i said that you will never power a house with the unit you have, i might have been wrong about that statement, took me awhile to realize it but if you put really thick wire above or below the coil and you induce enough current and steps it down you actually could have the most efficient air-core transformer ever, The Newman Transformer.
Because what i have seen you do in "The Search For Answers Part 14" and all the other live streaming, you almost always moved with the magnet or with the small coil and because of that you are making a generator.
When you apply power to the coil and you still spinning the magnet by hand, then that can only means that the magnetic field from the coil is not strong enought to move the magnet with no load on it and because of that, what you are measuring on the scope is the magnetic field that is interfering or inducing voltage and current with the applyed power and to make it complicated then add the shorting of the coil, ringing and sparking and the scope becomes unreadable.
If you put some load on it let's say 1KW (it is 1.34 HP) and then you apply power to the coil that is much bigger than what you are doing right now (hard guess 2 000 to 10 000 Volts), then the magnetic field will be stonger enought to move the magnet with the load and the magnetic field from the magnet should not be inducing anything into the coil it self at that point because it always is in a repulsion mode and the magnetic field from the magnet is no longer touching the magnetic field from the coil.
That is why i agree with Matt on this.
And i strongly believe that as long as you use an air core and the magnetic field from the coil is equel or greater (=>) to the magnetic field of the magnet, then you should not worry about any lenz's law.
And you could answer me this question, maybe it will help you too to move on with your experiments in the right direction, the question is: Are you making a generator or a motor ?
I think you are making a generator (my observation only)
