Ignition coils

An ignition coil (also called a spark coil) is an induction coil in an automobile's ignition systemtransforms the battery's 12 volts (6 volts in some older vehicles) to the thousands of volts (20 to 30 thousand volts) needed to spark the spark plugs. The wire which goes from the ignition coil to the distributor and the wires which go from the distributor to each of the spark plugs are called high tension leads.

A change is approaching!

My original intention of this site was to spread the word on Edward Leedsklanin's magnetic current and to provide interesting observations on coral castle and things related to magnetic current.  I have come to realise when speaking to people on the topic that most of my original illustrations are not accessible any longer.  I always intended to re-illustrate them with corrections , so my apologies if you purchased anybodys publications that have my incorrect illustrations in them. I plan to re-do this whole site - or link it to a new site. And whilst blogger has worked well it might be time to use another platform. Where I will start from is the very beginning ... page.1 and move on from there. With your help and observations I will make corrections where necessary. I hope everyone gets involved in following and doing the experiments for themselves. Stay tuned..

Daniel McFarland Cook's, Electro-Magnetic Battery

Image
Over a hundred and thirty years ago Daniel McFarland Cook of Mansfield, Ohio patented an "Electro-Magnetic Battery" that he stated "produces a constant current without the aid of a galvanic battery". His patent number 119,825 was issued on October 10, 1871. Did he really make something that continuously produced electricity? This was eight years before Edison invented the light bulb. Did he actually build this, or was it just an idea that in reality does not work? This is of his patent. taken from - http://my.voyager.net/~jrrandall/CookCoil.htm
