that is sweet Nate! got to love that printer! i want one of those donuts!!!! lol :) mine may be a bit more complicated but that's the original idea we had way back win on the ABHA coil building days!!! love it!

ok well im in the shed knocking up something i have never seen the likes of.
no sneak peaks.
=P
but think High Voltage and water
hummm ?!?! lol

i know what it is but not Going to say! :)

i was going to do the same thing and already had it half done but haventt got the thing to work correctly when i was messing with it last!!!

best of luck!!!!!

Update: OK guys I just got word that the panels are enroute to me, and that's (2) 10 watt panels. Monocrystalline.

I was going to drop ship to the winner, but... I most likely will not, as I have 10 such panels on order.

Basically, it all depends where on Earth the winner lives!

I reserve the right to drop ship, especially if the winner is in Europe. No sense shipping something all around the planet, first LOL.

Anyway, as soon as I get em' I'll shoot a vid of the prize. They should be quite nice! In full sun, I anticipate about 7-800 mA output, and the hopes are, that I've provided a prize, that is (sort of) within the realm/region of input, for the average pulse motor project! That was the concept, anyway LOL

This donation is an effort to encourage experimentation in the field of electronics and energy. It is my foremost thought, that not only is the best yet to come, but that perhaps even the brightest ideas and inventors, haven't even gotten started... and it's a pleasure to promote new and upcoming thinkers into the tank.

One of the best ways to do that, is to provide an encouraging and equal opportunity open source environment, which is exactly what Russ and Tinman are all about; and this is my own effort to support that very thing; that which is ... all that they do... so to speak.

Cheers All
Happy Building.

That's fine. Whatever the cost, I will pay it to make good on my offer :)

Hi Kyle,

No problem, I can drop ship anywhere you like.

To ship the 10W panel outside US and Canada, the shipping cost can be more than the panel itself.

Thanks,
Mark
so it's now official, makes no difference where the winner is, they'll receive the prize :)
fantastic!!!!

blessings kyle

It's alivvvve!  I did a quick cobble job to make it spin.:P

That is very cool Nate, :idea: you should try opto or hall effect instead of a mechanical  switch , no noise, still very cool though :cool::D:P.
Yeah some day I want to, but the arrangement of the coil and the rotor is flawed in this design.  It won't allow for the full power of the rodin style coil.  I have a different idea that is kind of way out there.  Maybe I'll save that idea for the next build off, if there is one.:D

see there will be one nate!

:)

i love the noise! reminds me of an old stem engine! i like it! :)

try reversing your leads on the coil. so instead of repelling it attracts...

Man Nate I love that rig.

Here is my latest vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBT3PRCubk0 Rpms have risen to over 4700 now voltage steady. Can anyone tell me why placing a piece of aluminum close to the rotor will slow it? That's not meant to happen right? What am I missing here?
Hello,
The Aluminum interacts with the magnetic fields generated by your spinning magnet.  Have you ever done the Lenz's Law test?  Drop a magnet through a tube of copper or aluminum and the magnet will fall slower due to the eddy currents of magnetic flux.  This is what is happening to  your experiment when you bring aluminum into the pulsing magnetic field, some of the flux goes into the aluminum and slows down the rotation.  That is my observation of your work.  Keep it up you inspire me. :-)

A mag will slow when dropped through copper pipe but not an aluminum one. Boyd bushman showed this on YouTube. Am I wrong? Thanks

Well, there are two schools of thought on that.  The first is that your rotor is inducing a current in the one turn coil that is the aluminum.  That eddy current flowing in your aluminum creates a magnetic field, of course, which interacts with and slows down your rotor due to Lenz drag, as well as creating some heat in your aluminum.  Lorentz force, like normal.

A friend of mine has been doing some experiments with a large one magnet no bearing bedini, towards this end, and is convinced that its not Lorentz force:

He has been delving into Keely and Leedskalnin for an explanation, and he might be right.

Very cool stuff so far! That 3D printed stuff is INCREDIBLE Firepinto! I love it!  I've been working on mine all day, waiting for some epoxy to cure so my bearing will be secure.   I'm experimenting with "the right hand rule" of the motion of magnetic fields induced in a wire.  

I'm about to start wrapping coils, then onto the circuitry!   Not sure when I'll get my first video up, but it will be before Midnight on Thursday  ;o)

Keep it up!

Thanks Bruxxus!
Really the 3D printer is the only thing that allowed me to enter with the amount of time I have available.  It was nice to just print, bolt, snap, and wind stuff together -- a huge time saver.  The only abundant time I had was hotel stays which I used to make the 3d design.  The next build off I'll be trying to make something more practical that just might output mechanical power, but still never been done before.  I can't wait.:D


I have another long video of the build process im going to try uploading tonight.  It will probably fail since its over 6GB.

Hello Russ and everyone just joined today. :)

I also made a entry into the pulsed motor contest it’s a pulsed gravity motor where a weight is shifted to the top of the wheel and gravity pulls it down to the bottom and spins the wheel.

Hope everyone likes it!

It’s very crude and needs improvement but it works.
Not sure I sent my zip file to the right place so I will put it here also.

Regards
