AC: I would agree and if we want to understand the reason as to why a standard generator works so poorly we can pass a very strong neo magnet past a block of aluminum. When we do this it is as if the magnet just entered a bowl of jello and all motion is resisted which is a similar to the reason why a standard generator requires so much effort to turn under load. You can't forget that a standard generator is working properly when it offers resistance to turning when it is driving a load. There is no such thing as a "better" generator that will offer less resistance when driving a certain load. i.e.; a generator that is 100% efficient will require 20 watts of mechanical input power to put 20 watts of electrical power into a load. It's impossible for it to do any better than that. Anyway, we are off to the races. I am looking forward to seeing the replications. The bare-bones of the setup is that moving magnets pass by pick-up coils that are driving a load. The fact that you have seven pick-up coils each connected to a full-wave bridge rectifier and sharing a common power output bus is incidental, it's just window dressing. The same thing applies to the 9/8 arrangement for the seven pick-up coils (and two power coils) and the the eight rotor magnets. That's just a mechanical arrangement to stagger the timing of the output pulses from the pick-up coils so they fire off in sequence and each one gets a time slice for driving the load. You have two drive coils that fire for every rotor magnet pass, eight firings per revolution. Every time the two drive coils fire, you get 14 output pulses from the seven pick-up coils and four missing (teeth) pulses. If the rotor is turning at 120 RPM, then the output pulse repetition rate is (2 x 8 x 18) = 288 pulses per second. When you factor in the "missing teeth" you get (2 x 8 x 14) = 224 pulses per second. Each one of those pulses is due to a rotor magnet either approaching or departing from a pick-up coil. When the pulses are driving a load current flows and you get a little "pulse" of Lenz law drag on the rotor from the particular pick-up coil that is driving the load at a particular instant. This extracts rotational energy from the rotor which is then replenished by the firing of the two drive coils. I don't see anything magical here, I just see a straight-on generator setup and a straight-on pulse motor driving it. Like I said, looking forward to seeing more results from all parties and especially interested in the replicators! MileHigh
