The circuit uses a total of six, 12 volt lead acid batteries to power the load. 3 batteries are wired in series to create 36 volts. The total discharge current is 30 Amps. 3 batteries are wired in parallel to create 12 volts The total charge current is 10 Amps per battery. 20 Amps are lost to the environment as heat or work done by the load. This is the amount of energy that the environment needs to replace to keep the tesla switch running. A switching circuit is used to set the frequency by which the batteries are changed from series to parallel. When the switching frequency is high enough, the battery voltage should begin to increase under load. The copper wiring must be constructed from hundreds of thin copper strands, whilst keeping the circuit resistance to an absolute minimum. All of the connectors should be high quality copper or silver. The output voltage across the load will be approximately 24 volts, & this will have to be regulated in someway using the 555 switching circuit. The capacity of the batteries should be upwards of 40 amps, a small car battery is suitable. The batteries need to deliver 30 Amps through the load, while only getting 10 Amps charging. All of the batteries should have equal capacity & be in good condition.

The mosfet drive circuits use isolated 12 volt regulated supplies which can deliver 50 mA. Dc to dc converters are available ready built, but you can make your own if you need more control over the circuit. The n type mosfet gates are driven between 0 volts & + 12 volts using transistor pairs, in the push pull fashion. Logic mosfets do not offer any advantage in this circuit, but they can be used if the gate voltage is held within its maximum swing. You can place many n type mosfets in parallel to reduce the circuit resistance. The push pull technique enables very fast charging & discharging of the mosfet gate capacitance, so paralleling mosfets is not a problem. The heatsinks you use on the components should reflect the amount of continuous current they will carry. On the diagram it shows 30 Amps & 10 Amps for the diodes, which might give you some idea where to place more mosfets in parallel. Reducing the circuit resistance is a real priority. Since all of the circuit components are constantly switching & are only being used 50 % of the time, this means that a 30 amp diode is only working at 50 % of its rated capacity. Twice the amount of power output is actually available, but only if the circuit resistance can be reduced to less than 0.1 Ohm. The circuit is capable of delivering 60 amps of current through the load in theory & delivering 1440 watts of power at the maximum. You should avoid making...
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.....
