Hi all, was away for a bit and decided to make some more experiments.
Came upon some parameters with this device setup, that is showing zero watts input on my killiwatt meter, that is connected to the primary input coil and mosfet.
I have some ideas, probably not much different than Chris's conclusions, as to why the device is behaving in this way.
I have a schematic and I will share some words on what I think is happening.
Then I will make some drawings, to show each phase of functioning, of what I think is happening within the device, at each phase.
1) The input coil L1 is switched on, from output from the 555 timer, lets say this builds a south magnetic pole, at the input coil wire end, connected to the drain of the mosfet.
2) L2 does not build a magnetic field at this time, because of the diode, though it does build an electric field.
3) L3 does start to build a magnetic field, though when the pulse width on time, of the input coil pulse is appropriate for the device parameters, L1 input coil will be switched off, before the magnetic field of L3 can influence input coil L1 to any degree.
4) L1 input coils magnetic field is now collapsing and L2 coil magnetic field is expanding.
5) L3 coils still expanding magnetic field then couples with the L1 collapsing field of opposite magnetic pole, this may be why the killiwatt meter shows zero watts, as the device may be feeding back to the supply.
6) L3 coil then starts collapsing, as L2 coils magnetic field is increasing, L3 coils magnetic field is now opposing the field of L2 coil, which cause L3 to become an input coil, relative to L2 and creates generator action in L2 coil, which may explain why the led bulb becomes much brighter, when coil L3 is shorted upon itself.
7) For all these effects to occur, the input pulse timing and overall device parameters, need to be within a certain timing window, for these effects to transpire.
8) Input coil L1 is now switched on again and the cycle starts again.
This may not be exactly what is occurring within the device, though I think it is close.
Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.
