It should be painfully obvious that the positioning of a coil by a millimeter one way or the other could decide success or failure. and when you`ve got 10s of millimeters as a possible position, the chances for INCORRECT positioning, and thus FAILURE, are far greater than getting it right. This begs an exact replication first to verify operation, and then you can `get creatve`.

But there is a little problem with an EXACT replication. There is NO FRIGGIN INFO! STEORN, come on now, throw us a bone here. We do not know the core material for sure, the number of turns, the polarity of the magnets, the current draw, the gap between the magnets and coils, and we do not even know for sure if it works even after we get a PERFECT replication. We also have not been told whether or not the device they use for testing, with the coils laid horizontal, even shows the same COP>1 than the other design. We also do not know what the scope shot looks like on an orbo with vertical coils, because they have neglected to show any tests at all with that version except let us watch it spin. Since we do not know if the horizontal core device shows OU, we are guessing on magnet strength also. The magnets they tested the strength of, were not even part of either of their original demo`s. They were part of a demo built to show the inductance change. Therefore, it is IMPOSSIBLE to make an exact replication without some info. We can make a device that looks like an orbo, and acts like an orbo. but even if we got it right on accident, we wouldn`t even know if it was an orbo, or a crap load of assumptions thrown into a big pile that happened to work. But, we keep trying anyway. And that leaves most of us simply trying to replicate the orbo "effect", instead of replicating the orbo itself. Because it`s the only thing we really...
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.....
