The machine on the left is a Tesla coil transmitter. The one on the right is optimized for spark production. In addition to the positioning of the elevated...
I would think your coil should operate pretty well for power transmission seeing how the resistance is probably near 10 ohms and at 60kHz. As long as the...
What is the wire gauge of the twin coil setup? Its hard to tell from the video. I'm guessing its between 20-28 gauge? Thanks, Charlie ... From: Greg Leyh...
Hi Charlie, The twin coil prototypes in the video weren't all that expensive. I built them in my garage. The price difference between a used car and a new...

Realistically I think 99% would be difficult to achieve. But I think if your voltage magnitudes are large enough and your operating frequency is low enough,...

VLF radio men would give their eye teeth for 50% wireless transmission efficiency. Compare a 200 HP Tesla wireless system (Wardenclyffe was designed as a 250...
". . . operating your system with 200 horsepower would give you only 50% transmission [efficiency]." That's exactly right. And if the world system were to be...
I have, in fact, worked out a plant of 10,000 horse-power which would operate with no bigger loss than 1 percent of the whole power applied; that is, with the...

But the earth is an excellent conductor with a resistance of less than an ohm between antipodes. And, didn't the Russian large-scale demos involve a single...
I agree, once you make that dipole analogy you can understand many of Tesla's claims. Interestingly the US Navy had or still has a submarine communication...
Very little loss could have been (or has been?) achieved by these Russian/Soviet one wire transmissions that use one wire instead of a high loss ground...

I think its taking us so long because its darned expensive to build large coils to experiment at Tesla's level. Its hard for anyone to put down that much...
Yup, that's how I think it works. It is interesting too because a standing wave is a reactive power wave. So very little real power is consumed, which is...
