Ok,
Today i tested this schematic.
It was part of a series of tests, just to see what Back EMF can do for any good here.
It was also because I saw some videos that put me on some thinking paths.
Test equipment:
555 timer with a very low frequency (1 till 20 Hz)
1 dpdt relais
1 solid state relais
normal LEDs
1 MOT (trafo from microwave)
And many other coils from personal collection....

Of course, my scopes and multimeters
My results are :
The test described by Wouter's message is correct. You can add BEMF into a capacitor.
Its scarry to see the voltage go to levels beyond the level of my battery....
From a 12V battery to 140V into my test capacitor.
That was a great test!
I also tried to discharge the capacitor into a very little test cell....
I am sorry to say that really nothing happened...LOL
Maybe the frequency of charging and discharging was tooooooo low. (every 20 seconds)
Hydros test:
The test with the schematic of Hydrocars also works. I can see a LED burning almost constantly.
However, I must say that I was hoping for more electrons to take out of the WFC.
I think the reason was as follows:
I saw some very very high voltage peaks on my scope. Hundreds of volts!
After a discussion with our master chief HYdrocars, we where from opinion that the BEMF was the reason of these peaks and that my relais between the coil and wfc was TOO SLOW.
If my relais reaction was quicker, I should not see the high peaks, because of the resistance of the WfC.
The BEMF was gone before it could hit my WFC.
Hmmmmmmm, that was nice and not nice. So, and old tyoe relais is too slow.
I also have now 2 Solid state relais in my collection.
As soon as i am more familiar with these kind of relais, I will do this test again , if necessary.
Every body the best with testing.
Till next update!
