We have discussed in the last video that two frequencies are capable to break the resistance barrier of the back EMF and allow us to drive more current. We will use now the Arduino Mega 2560 where we use 8 ports to drive 8 coils individual. The frequency will be the same for all of them but they are triggered one after the other in the same frequency, also called delayed. I use a new power supply which has intelligence built in to allow me to drive voltage and current individual. It gives me the opportunity to remote control, monitor and apply threshold for an automatic shutdown which keeps the DUT (Device Under Test) safe.

I like to show what kind of monitoring we will perform. Here you see in the first picture the discharge curve of the battery. We use this charging to monitor the charging via the Keithley DMM later on. We then have the Agilent DMMs we monitor and further the monitor screen of the Power supply. Her I can log and monitor as well as under sequence function drive a power pattern to the DUT and log the feedback via all DMM’s. it also has charting function for the set values and the Is values of Voltage and Current.

Here you see the Arduino Mega and on top the so called Shield. It is the option to connect to the board and further provide and capture signals. I have built a breakout box for the 8 ports and secure each port with a resistance to keep the 40mA draw per port below that. Capacitors connect to each port and shunt ground eliminates small spikes on the signal.

I like to make one point. When driving any additional electronic from the 5 Volt output of the arduino board you will not get the 5 Volt based on the current requirement. In my case I am below 4 volt and we need to increase this to 5 Volt. I have a 9 Volt battery which is connected to the vin port and supplies a higher voltage which is regulated by the board down to 5 volt by is also providing more current that the LM2596S voltage regulator can see the 5 Volt via the load. I have the option to change the voltage level and can safely restrict it to avoid dames on the components.

On the oscilloscope you see now 4 of the 8 port signals. Each signal is triggered after the other and between the signal you see the delay. We have to give the back EMF time to propagate and trigger afterwards the signal. Decreasing delay will increase the frequency. You have to go forward and backward with the setting on the arduino board to get it right.

I like to point your attention on the current requirement for your drivers. teh 9 Volt battery I used before is not able to provide the current for the drivers. I use a small 12 Volt battery here with 3.3AH which has plenty of power to provide for that. The voltage regulator again does help to keep the voltage at the level rage we need.

We start now our first test with 242 Hz. And disconnect the load from the battery to start charging. You see on the oscilloscope the values for the spike voltage around 120 Volt and the reactive voltage around 30 Volt. The white spikes are the power values and come in clear to see packages which indicate the individual ports back EMF. The 8th port is not visible and might be within the rest of the 7. First guess, but will require more analysis. The charging time is fast and I will provide the details on the board.

The real time chart gives you a steady curve to the higher voltage level. We see not flat lining close to the 13.5 volt and reach the target voltage in a very short time.

The chart analysis did provide the target voltage in 10 Minutes and 40 Seconds. This does break theoretical the performance of the standard battery charger.

We integrate our measurements into the formula
V = 13 Volt Power Supply Driver V = 5 Volt
I = 1.08 A
P= V * I = 13 Volt * 1.08 A = 14.04 WattFrequency 242 Hz, Pulse width 10%
From 12 V to 13.5 V in 10 Minutes and 40 SecondsPower requirement = 14.04 Watt * 0.1730 h = 0.0024 KWh
From a 60 Watt battery charger, charged to 13.5 Volt in 39 Minutes and 12 Seconds
Power consumption is 39.12 Watt or 0.03912 KWhThe charge power performance is 1603 % compared to the standard
charger or COP of 16.03 and from a charging rate time of view 376% increasing
the overall COP to around COP =60.27 or 6027 %

First Summary
The use of the Arduino Mega 2560 controller circuit was proven to be the key to
unlock the true potential of the isolation transformer. Not only does we not need
to use an average calculations to reach the practical 13.5 Volt from 12 Volt. We
also charge in half the time compared to the discharge of the battery with a 60
Watt light bulb. This result is the fundament for a self-running energy device.
There are still some anomalous readings, like the jitter at the higher charging
voltage, causing it to a greater deal during the charge cycle to go up and down
in voltage. The spikes are not all at the same output level. All coils are linked and
every back EMF is also on all the other coils, causing a feedback which is creating
a pattern on all the following spikes to jump up and down. We saw in the previous
video frequency test and I promised you will see the same behaviour on the
Arduino board. We move on to use a higher frequency and measure the performance.

We start now our second test with a higher frequency of 316 Hz. The charging performance increases 4 fold and the current increases by 50%
Clip 17
Clip 17
The chart does show that we reach the 13.5 Volt in 3 minutes and 20 Seconds. That is a great value.
Clip 18

We integrate our measurements into the formula
V = 13 Volt Power Supply Driver V = 5 Volt
I = 1.54 A
P= V * I = 13 Volt * 1.54 A = 20.02 WattFrequency 316 Hz, Pulse width 10%
From 12 V to 13.5 V in 3 Minutes and 20 SecondsPower requirement = 20.02 Watt * 0.0530 h = 0.0011 KWh
From a 60 Watt battery charger, charged to 13.5 Volt in 39 Minutes and 12 Seconds
Power consumption is 39.12 Watt or 0.03912 KWhThe charge power performance is 3556 % compared to the standard
charger or COP of 35.56 and from a charging rate time of view 1225% increasing
the overall COP to around COP = 435.61 or 43561 %

Second Summary
The increased frequency has effects not anticipated. First it doesn’t decrease
the power consumption. Second, it increases the charging power impact 4 fold
for 50% more current required. Opposite of standard calculations, where
increased frequency leads to decreased power consumption for the same
voltage. The only option is to increase the voltage, which is not required here at
all. We achieve a three digit COP and we have not even started yet. Note that the
chemical imbalance is achieved by tapping into the ZPE field. The conventional
method to charge is brute force and very inefficient. The factor to achieve
performance is a measure of many impulses per cycle. Tesla said: the higher the
frequency the higher the power output. Here it all makes sense and is proven
experimental and scientifically measured to be correct. Also note that we have
only addressed one of many deficiencies and that the Bedini circuit does not yield
any of these results. Let us move to the next higher frequency and compare the results.

We conduct now our last test with 473 Hz. We draw initial 100 mA more current which then drops and see at 13.324 volt an erratic fluctuation of current.

Clip 22
We integrate our measurements into the formula
V = 13 Volt Power Supply Driver V = 5 Volt
I = 1.64 A
P= V * I = 13 Volt * 1.64 A = 21.32 WattFrequency 473 Hz, Pulse width 10%
From 12 V to 13.5 V in 3 Minutes and 35 SecondsPower requirement = 21.32 Watt * 0.0558 h = 0.0012 KWh
From a 60 Watt battery charger, charged to 13.5 Volt in 39 Minutes and 12 Seconds
Power consumption is 39.12 Watt or 0.03912 KWhThe charge power performance is 3260% compared to the standard
charger or COP of 32.6 and from a charging rate time of view 1168% increasing
the overall COP to around COP = 380.77 or 38077 %

Third Summary
In our third test we had initially an increase of current of about 100 mA which
was used steady to a charging level of 13.324 Volt at which point the battery
voltage became erratic with jitters. Based on that, the overall performance is
lower than at 316 Hz. Many more tests need to be conducted and the circuitry
and the timing circuit optimised. I will try the higher current values and frequencies
for the multiple battery charging test. We can already conclude that his system
can run in self sustain mode. I will work on it with the additional coils not used
yet to take the energy for the control circuits and driver power.
