I don't know if you got an answer about this or not. My guess is the pulse is too long and this will saturate the inductor causing excessive current flow. When...

I have found that one can replace the fuse that comes with the kit with a thermal fuse (I use a 500mA PTC) and although it has about 1 ohm resistance, it seems...

It is interesting to note that connecting a resistive load momentarily across a battery causes the same sort of over-voltage and ringing as the Couper circuit....

Rather than use an inductor, capacitor or resistor to 'ring' the battery, why not just connect a 24V source via a MOSFET. This should have several advantages: ...

The inductance of the Pulsing Inductor is not critical. Excellent results can be had with inductors ranging from 50 microHenries up to 800 microHenries or...
