Hello Group. I will be running a new Bedini SSG as part of a display/light sculpture tomorrow (photos coming). I want to run it for a few hours on a 12DC power...
Hi Andy, You could place an appropriate load instead of the charging battery. It would depend upon your coil and input ma as to what works best. A little 12...
... 1N4002 also works, however I cannot tell it for sure because I was powering my monopole with a very weak battery which gives not stable 12V and after...
I found the proper diodes in scrapped battery charges, the ones used for cordless drill batteries. 1n4001's (4) are in the charger (wallwart) and 1n4007 is in...
Hello everyone, This weekend I had commenced my first official ssg machine's charge/discharge testing and with very good results,I think. The tests were...
FFF Nice job! My brothers do not have an electronics background and this should make things a lot simpler for them. I will be helping them but they cannot...
Hi all, I bought an old model of second hand oscilloscope and hope tomorrow will arrive in purpose to study more about SSG best tunning for more efficient. ...
You could hook up the output to a capacitor and then parallel off of that to some LED's. Put 4 LED's in series with a current limiting resistor so that max...
exactly, mostly I just lurk and learn, it is unlikely to be succesful as a drive motor rather the RE side would supply power to the drive train batteries while...
Thanks Warren, If people look hard enough you'll find what you need. Otherwise, just order the parts on-line. The parts we use here are common parts, which are...
Hi all, Sorry for taking so long to get back. With graduation exercises etc., it is a busy time. Special thanks to both John Koorn and Fletch for getting my...
I cannot find if such information is only a myth or reality : does wheel speed really matches with impedance of charging battery and slow down or speed up...
John Thanks for the quick response and analysis of my data. Yes Idid forget to let the cahrging battery REST for at least one hour between all the test cycles....
I'm happy to hear that Larry, You guys have been so helpful to me, so I hope that I can return the favor and help out any way I can. I was wondering if I can...
... and post. ... charger seems a little ... Thanks, John, but no need. I just found the reason - an inaccurate amperage for the Standard Charger. Before the...
John D, This testing regime is fine, but just be aware that a partially charged battery will suplhate more than a fully charged battery will. This will affect...
Dennis, To be a little more accurate of the input amps for the conventional charger you could just take a reading of the start amps and end amps and average...
john, I have seen big, i mean BIG differences, up to 1 amp, between the ammeter on my charger, and what it shows on my inline ammeter going to the charge...
I would say this, that your trigger resistance will change to tune the wheel to its resonant point, depending on your batteries condition. JohnK feel free to...
And for the "grain of wheat bulb" you may consider to steal one from your wife's (or mother's) christmas tree light chain. Important is that is lights up at...
John, From the "real time" raw data I recorded, for my Standard Charger there is an average amperage of 1.020A 1st hour, 0.260A 2nd hour, and 0.018A each hour...
Tom and John, To get the raw data, I relied on an analogue 1-5 amp meter. When the amperage no longer registered on the analogue I used my Fluke multi- meter....
These diodes are of the same family group having the same specs with the exception of reverse voltage rating. While current capabilities for the whole family...
What are the requirements for the frame to support the wheel? Does it affect the performance if it's steel? I thought I read somewhere in the forum that it...
Thats right Gordon. Non magnetic frame, aluminum isnt ideal either. Some Stainless steels, plastic, wood etc are fine. If your not sure test with a magnet. S ...
Hi Michael, The instructions are currently being re-written to be a little more clearer and should be posted up shortly. When you are tuning it is best to...
Thank you for the promt response. yes I can assure that my digital was too far off and had to use my analog meter. ... and ... as ... for ... so ... no ... ...
