This type of design can produce a very high amperage current for a faction a second that can used to do some useful work if properly harnessed. The switching device could be a rotating spark gap as used by Nikola Tesla or some high speed electronic device, it is my belief that only glass tubes such as diodes or triode valves are really good at this and not transistors as they cannot handle the high voltage and high current produced in these devices without burning themselves out..

As used by Edwin Gray in his invention the charging circuit is basically a 12 volt battery being driven by vibrating relays to pulse the power through a step up transformer to raise voltage from 12 volt to approx 3000 volts this then, is rectified and used to charge a bank of capacitors.
This bank of capacitors is then discharged for a nano seconds period into special design tube which seems nothing than a copper rod a spark gap some carbon and a series of concentric rings around the spark gap and the resulting power collected on those rings is then fed to the earth via a air induction transformer or to the positive terminal of the charging batteries .
The power appearing at secondary of this air induction transformer is then used to power the motoring coils of the specially design motor.
High Voltage Induction Coil
Another method used in early X-ray machine and also Marconi in his first radio transmission across the Atlantic ocean was the induction coil basically a two coils wound on a metal rod a small number of primary windings in heavier gauge wire and large number of finer gauge winding ,basically a step up transformer using the primary magnetic field to operate a switch that controls the power to the primary winding.
This causes the magnetic field in the primary coil to build up and down which then causes by induction an alternating high voltage output in the secondary coil.(most likely a square...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
