Resistive load

Hi Rene,
Thanks for the interesting links on the generators. I have noticed in the meantime the other youtuber uploaded his second video Ver.1.1 too.
Low Lenz Generator Ver.1.1 - YouTube
I would like to know if he could repeat the run down test with an incandescent lamp of an equivalent Wattage like the LED lamp(s) represent? Because if he does not have a full wave diode bridge with a puffer capacitor at the generator output coils then the AC output from the coils is loaded by the LEDs only at the induced positive and negative voltage peaks and not continuously like a resistive load would load the output. (IF the LEDs have been manufactured with a built-in rectifier, then what I am trying to say is not valid but we do not know the inside circuit of the LEDs.)
I think if the load test with a resistive load gives a similar run down time like the LED load did then indeed something interesting happens in such a setup.

Hi Gyula,
The inventor already tried this, by short circuiting the output coil, which had no effect on the RPM of the device.
It would sure be great if he tried more types of loads, to see what happens.
Also, in these designs, they all have coils with a core. Because it is not 1 circular core, magnets tend to be attracted to the end of the core. Therefore this point is where a little breaking effect exists. If one closes the loop on the core in the coils, so 1 circel. Then there will be no drag anymore, with or without load.
I tried this in a test setup with a longer core, in just 1 coil, to see what happens. When the magnets are in the center of the core, there is no drag. A circel has no begin and no end, so also no center. Hence, no drag at all.
With this generator setup one could easely build a selfrunner (with a small motor to get the RPM) once the generator is at speed it will take next to nothing to keep it running, putting out loads of energy !
I will suggest your test idea to the builder. (or you could do that yourself) :-)
cheers,
Rene
