Minor Adjustments, Major Results — Pulse Motor Optimization

Small tweaks make a huge difference — adjusting magnet height, reed switch positioning, and coil proximity transformed this pulse motor from stalling to spinning smoothly at just 7V.

> yo yo what's up Michael page hat in here we're just looking um and how to reduce the amount of energy that I was putting into this and where it's running and 1.74 volts heck yeah now it's not going very fast granted but there's so much less friction now that I put some more graphite lubricant in in all the Halls and then this clamp that I have see the disc on the top there a six inch disc there's one underneath it too and it clamps down on the on the Murray disc well they all have a ray on them but I call them levitation discs because they make it float get a thesaurus man that's what I do yea…

yo yo what's up Michael page hat in here we're just looking um and how to reduce the amount of energy that I was putting into this and where it's running and 1.74 volts heck yeah now it's not going very fast granted but there's so much less friction now that I put some more graphite lubricant in in all the Halls and then this clamp that I have see the disc on the top there a six inch disc there's one underneath it too and it clamps down on the on the Murray disc well they all have a ray on them but I call them levitation discs because they make it float get a thesaurus man that's what I do yeah there's a pole there so what so they're a little bit off balance they need to grab full every once in a while so they don't fall and that's what they do there's nothing that said there couldn't be a shaft in there man nothing that says there can't be a shaft in levitation nothing although the levitation without the shaft is really really cool and what I want to it's what I really want to have a crack at doing something like that one day that would be really really cool to uh have you know actual levitation like say on a vehicle you know but since we're talking here I'm I was thinking about Tesla coils and if you know if you can polarize a wire say north or south and you can then you can definitely polarize a Tesla coil north or south as long as that Reed switch is working should continue to move um yeah and then you could have one of these discs like attached to the wheel of your car so it could be a you know hybrid of sorts and then the Tesla coil you can put them close enough together quantumized of course which means you got the same amount of power or more power and a much smaller space and yeah that would be great then you could do exactly the levitation trick that I'm doing with these magnets you put them so close together with the all facing the same way it tricks the other disc which has the same array on it into thinking there's only one polar on Pole you get what I'm saying I mean the other side is still there and if you push hard enough on the discs they're going to latch together but if you don't it works but that's just these and I was thinking that um you know you get one of those magnet array directional things going or whatever however you're going to do it and you create the same uh pull that's coming from the Tesla coils and then poof you got this pillow of electrical energy that when those magnets on the wheels are the levitation devices on the wheels hit that pillow they're gonna you're gonna lift up and you're gonna be able to move and do whatever you need to do I'm sure there's some great Engineers that could piece that together but I'm telling you man utilize the Tesla coil and under different leadership it could be cheap to do I'm sorry but you know you can't well I mean you can do you pretty much do whatever you want you know but uh I just think it would be a great idea to utilize the knowledge that we already have to create new and better things for now in the future oh I come up with ideas all the time man but I I I'm lazy sometimes you know I mean it's not an excuse but I'm pretty sure that if you can polarize a wire like I was saying before you could polarize the coil so why aren't we getting on that I want to fly before I die man and you got to make that available for everybody man not just the super rich or the sick and dying it doesn't make a sweepstakes win or something like that no man everybody should be able to do this the government should make that a priority you know if any of it's real to begin with which you know if you can't polarize the Tesla coil it's kind of that is a whole different ball game it's a lot harder try and figure out and you know you see like you work with the infrastructure you get asphalt for rubber tires and it works or concrete for rubber tires it works see what I mean so you get Tesla coils for levitating vehicles and it works question mark all right that's all I got have a good night and thank you for watching peace out
