hi good day! can i ask for the circuit design and schematic diagram.. it was awesome with your design.. can you send it to my email add... gta_jag69@yahoo.com
This is very cool. I am trying to add electroluminesant lighting to my car rims. The current method (pancake slip assembly) will wear out very easily. Do you think this will work to transfer from car to wheel? They would be in very close proximity. Would I have to worry about rain and elements?
We could design the bike rack so that the headtube mounted receiver on the bike contacted the unit providing the charge. We would rather not have to include a plug. Rather just two contacting pads.

thank you, i have began to study lc circuits and found your video. I can see the truth of this but there are some things I don't understand. Thank you, this helps alot -- maybe one day I can contribute back.
In your description it says that the primary coil is part of a radio. Is that an appropriate size for a coil in an LC resonant circuit that is used in a simple HAM radio? I am trying to build one and so far have been unsuccessful, and I believe it is because my LC circuit is incorrectly tuned.
Also you stated above that you have a rectifier in your power supply. However, this should not work with DC power. Could you clarify?
@Knuffelaar1970 : this is not fake i have done this project with micro-controller atmega 8535 with transmiting power of 45watts. with the range of 45cm, i have received 69% efficiency.
This looks very fascinating, but can you explain why there are capacitors used, why it's using DC instead of AC and why it uses single loops instead of coils? I am trying to figure this thing out, but I am not understanding one bit of it.

Wireless transfer of transmission to receiver electrical is similar to photot voltaic cells- solar panel fucntion. The emmission of correct electrmagnetism to the reciever to be converted into electron flow. The receiver has to have a effeicient semi conduction with sensitivity for better electron selving obital hi lo photonic action to produce hot substantitive electron similar to alternation magneto flux field to progate storable current from magent rotating on coil.
@businessdesigner No they are actually very different phenomenon, while generation of electricity from solar panel is exploiting the particle nature of EM wave this is exploiting the wave nature of it. Both are very different. (That's why there exists a phenomena of strong coupling or resonance in the form of transfer shown in the video)
What if you used 3 rings on both the transmitter and the reciever 2 verticle at a 90 degree agle to eachother and the third horizontal half way up the other two creating a spherical shape. Would that stop the orientation of the two from effectinge the reception (except of course for the range)?
nice work! the drawback i'm guessing is that the strength of the electric field drops very quickly as you increase the distance between inductors. have you done any efficiency calculations on it?
That's right - with the loop plane being parallel to field lines there's no net flux passing through it. Hence the result is the same as if it was very far away.
this is really awsome, I have actually decided to do wireless electricity for my physics EEI do you think you could tell me what I need to make it and what frequency you have the power supply set at.
wouldnt it be great if like a tv was close to a wall there could be some device that sends power and other signals(cable,web) wireless-ly so no more cables every where!!!!?
Why didn't you flip the smaller loop around 180? I wanted to see if the light would still work if the poles were aligned in parallel. I'm trying to figure out if that would make a difference - In other words, would the law of series vs parallel still apply when only coupled magnetically? If you know the answer already please tell me.
I think you can easily come to an answer if you note that we are dealing with AC currents and the circuits are completely symmetric (no need to think farther than that - the receiver is still exactly the same circuit if you turn it 180 degrees around). So yes, the bulb will light the same. I didn't exactly turn the receiver 180 degrees in the video, but I did something equivalent from 1:23 if you watch closely.
@MarkoBakula Hey thanks Marko. I've been driving myself crazy trying to figure that out. I'm at work right now, not home where I can experiment to find out. But yeah it was racking my brain.
The user arspace gave me a message saying if we use Tesla approach to give everyone energy it will drain the earth's magnetic field and let the solar wind destroy humanity.
Yes but a good one :D If we can ever get to the point where Teslas patents are released and we could actually use the energy wrom the atmosphere and transfer it anywhere on a scale where it would be free for all, we could no doubd use it to control the magnetic field if needed. My opinion is that we would not speed the weakening of the magnetic field by doing this. Someone prove me wrong.
when you say control magnetic field , are you saying we can control the magnetic fields on the hands -on neo-magnets or must it be just the earth's magnetic field ?
I was referring to the earths magnetic field but unlimited energy gives us control of any magnetic field. If we can weaken the any field, we can also enhance it.
"He who controls magnetism, controls the universe" -Marco Rodin
From where did you get the information to build "this"? I have check many web pages and i found nothing. Please give me the information to do this thing because i'm working for a project about this.
As someone who has actually replicated this particular device, let me state that this configuration of high capacitance, low inductance circuit is exactly what Nikola Tesla said is Hertzian EM waves (MAGNETIC/amperage waves) and is USELESS, having extreme losses. Tesla, on the other hand, was working with oscillating ELECTROSTATIC fields where losses were practically nothing. Simulate both circuits on MultiSim to see this.
can you please list down the total components used along with the ratings, and also the PCB layout/ schematic Eagle files for the PCB board etching?
1>what is the number of turns in Primary & secondary, i see that Primary is just a tube of copper, normally used in Refrigeration and cooling, what is the thickness in mm,
2>what abt the secondary , whats the AWG/SWG, how many turns?
Tesla was trying to build something you could use anywhere in the world. I don't think he succeeded technically, and his financial supporters withdrew.
@wolfekeeper I still don't understand. The world was already running with electricity using direct currents. :) It seems to me he was trying to find a way, perhaps using the hydro electricity ( source) and transmit it around the world wireless. I think, if this was true the world has already accomplished his wish currently, because our cell phones and Internet gives us a hint.
@dan020350 no, wireless telecommunications doesn't require high efficiency- Tesla was trying to send power wirelessly around the world with high efficiency.
Tesla did do this kind of thing as part of his Tesla coil.
@wolfekeeper Then let us conclude : Tesla was never working on a free energy device near the end of his life, although he did exploited Niagara Falls- hydroelectricity. Nevertheless, transferring energy to another by wireless was his last unfinished piece of work. :)
The URL you provided answers with a 403 - Permission failed. Could you upload the schematic somewhere that is available. This is some great work. Thank you!
I'm sorry for my lack of replies last months - If there are still people with problems accessing the link, please let me know, because I'm unsure of what could be wrong with it. Thanks.
Well, no, when the receiver is removed the power input into the transmitter drops. But, there is a continuous power requirement for the transmitter of about 10W which still makes efficiency of the system poor in overall.
Hm, that depends on how you elaborate whatever you consider a 'joule theif'... but any power oscillator with a parallel LC tank circuit can serve in this purpose. Here I used a royer oscillator similar to those used in CCFL inverters, but hartley, colpitts and other similar oscillators can be used as well.
The most important issues of the frequency are radiation losses, skin effect and capabilities of the power amplifier itself. Higher frequencies do lead to higher number of energy packets/second but for the former reasons it's not the best idea to push the frequency too high. I'm actually interested to determine the lowest usable frequency.
A higher power design with half bridge amplifier is underway this summer. This circuit is really only good for few tens of watts input.
Is there ANY danger involved with this technology? It just seems too easy.

I'm actually interested to determine the lowest usable frequency.
A higher power design with half bridge amplifier is underway this summer. This circuit is really only good for few tens of watts input.
