This is cool! I always thought the tesla switch was intended to be a solid state device and never considered mechanical switching with a rotor. Good job!
Fantastic video. Looks like you are working on very similar to what I have been working on. For your motor, is it just a regular dc motor driving the disk, or is it a pulse motor?
Thanks. There is no additional motor, the wheel is driven by the coil, the magnets and the reed-switches. Three of the reed-switches is turned on to make the coil attract the magnet and the other three to make the coil repel the magnet (for each magnet).
