Ken did build this basic circuit, the Bedini/Brandt, with a relay and got some interesting results after putting a transformer in the output. But like I tried to tell him relays are slow, noisey and prone to breakdown when operated continously. It failed after a short time, I do not recommend using relays in this circuit at all. He did show though, that the battery voltages did level out after awhile, but voltage readings do not mean much and we should have been looking at total charge in the batteries. Voltage readings do not correlate to power, I can produce any voltage you want but it does not mean that I have a lot of energy there. Once again power input needs to be measured against power output to really tell us anything.
