This is my commentary about the Rodin coil I built and some of the theories concerning it.

This part covers the coil I built, coil geometries, a spice model I made of the coil, and the waveforms it produces.

Correction: It's actually 28 gauge wire.

  • tried to wath this.. but u are so sloooooooooooooooooooooow.. boooring.. switching to better one

  • @31337flamer Thanks for the feedback.

    Exceeded your attention span did I?

    Well, in all fairness the video does move along slowly. It's one of my first attempts at using a very simple video making program, really it;s a slide show editor that handle video clips too. It's awkward and tedious to make videos with. I have better non-linear video editing app now that is much better. It should allow me to make videos with a quicker pace.

  • @syberraith your explenation is well done. it is easier for the listener to take in pre titles episodes. what are you about to describe, put a slide on for intro of main thesis per segment.

  • @superdiza I agree. This was my first video creation. It was crudely done with a slide show app. I suppose it would be worth it, to redo the whole thing with a better production, including a written script this time, consider the amount of positive responses I got from just this simple video series.  After this video I did figure out how to optimize the geometry of the torus for any coil. Perhaps after I build a better coil, I could make a new video at that time with better diagrams too.

  • glavno da energija kroži,če je kaj koristnega jih pa prav malo briga

    

  • @sc00f Interesting, Thanks.

    I wonder if it has any ability to transmit or receive scalar waves. Maybe I lookinto to those possibilities next time.

  • @dougspair Supposedly it makes a very good antenna, as it's a directional field transmitter. It could also make a great loudspeaker coil. An interesting feature it makes magnets rotate in the middle, this is how a Rodin motor is created. It could also form a transformer by using two coils on top of each other, possibly with a ferrite rod core in the middle. If it's any better than existing designs, I don't know, it wasn't studied much. It's an invention that could have several uses.

  • @ReactanceIsFutile I'm just recently looking at youtube stuff, and never heard of a Rodin coil, but am very familiar with iron-laminated transformers and ferrite toroid cores, for both transformer, and choke purposes. What is the purpose of the Rodin, it seems counter-productive to allow the magnetic field to work outside the core, of any transformer? Since a well designed toroid is already near 98.5-99% or better, what exactly does the Rodin do?

  • I'm absolutely amazed by the numbers of people who know enough to be fairly capable in electronics, but still understand so little to properly analyze someone's work, like Rodin's. He hasn't done anything special. A few minutes with a calculator and a regular toroid provide better results (same power, fewer turns). He wound a toroid in an 'interesting' way- that's it. The magnet is doing the majority of the work in his 'examples'.

  • Best video I've seen on the Rodin coil! Finally someone who's investigated it thoroughly and doesn't rush through everything as if it was a ten-second commercial. Thanks for sharing your findings!
