Calling all Coil Experts & Jack of all trades

[Buccaneer]

I did some more testing (as suggested, I think) of the B&S coil on the Eismann lamination,
laying it in the flywheel next to the magnets, in two different
positions. Next, I tested the same coil back in it’s original lamination.

Short story, even shorter, Poor performance with the B&S coil on the Eismann lamination.

Three short test videos, and pictures that coincide.
Perhaps I’ll try a pony coil next 🙁

I am confused as, I have never tested a coil with it touching the magnets??????
I have owned a Mercotronic Model 98 and now have a Model 88, I do not recall seeing that in the instructions….
It is my understanding that the testers use the battery voltage to mimic the electricity used to create the magnetic field..

Richard, no confusion…. this was just an experiment. Read back a few posts for explanation.

A coil has to be in motion thru a magnetic field (or vice versa) to generate any electrical energy. With the flywheels magnetic field surrounding the stationary coil, it might affect what the Stevens unit is trying to do. Just a thought.

I should have re-emphasized that previous test with the B&S coil
on the Eisemann lamination, testing while Not in the flywheel, were equally,
if not more, disappointing.
It was just an experiment to see what impact the flywheel magnets
might have on the magnetic field and testing results.

Most likely it’s the configuration of the B&S lamination specifically designed
for it’s coil, that makes the magic happen at lower amps on the Steven’s tester.

Sure wish I knew a “Magnetic Engineer”, lol.
