I Fix Lenz Drag

This video demonstrates a unique hybrid electrical experiment that combines three major elements: a modified vertical C1 capacitor with chassis-based AC excitation, a displacement-current reactive gate, and a Don Smith–style split L2/L3 air-core resonant coil system. When these components interact, they create a mode of operation that standard transformer theory does not normally predict. 🔵 How the Modified C2 Capacitor Works The C1 capacitor is mounted vertically and driven directly from AC live on its metal chassis, with no closed-loop return path. Inside the capacitor, this produces a strong vertical electric field gradient, which forces displacement current through the dielectric. A tap point (C2) is taken from the capacitor body, turning the device into a reactive excitation gate rather than a conventional energy storage element. This “capacitive gate” becomes the driving source for the next stage of the system. 🔶 Feeding the Split L2/L3 Resonant Coils The tap from the C3 capacitor is connected to a pair of air-core coils with secondaries arranged in a split, posi-side assist configuration. Each coil resonates independently while also exchanging energy with the other. Instead of operating like a transformer winding, the two coils act as reactive collectors, responding to the displacement-driven signal coming from C2 via L1 air core. Because the capacitor is excited asymmetrically, the coils do not behave like a classical secondary. Instead, they enter a special dual-mode resonance that significantly alters how energy reflects back to the source. ⚡ 4-Way Wave Mixing. Tom Bearden Edge Once the system begins resonating, four separate waves interact: The displacement waveform inside the C2 capacitor The AC excitation driving the capacitor chassis The resonant wave in L2 The resonant wave in L3 These four waves beat and interfere with each other, producing the characteristic “accordion-style” waveform visible on the oscilloscope—slow envelope modulation on top of a fast underlying carrier. This is the hallmark of multi-mode wave mixing. 🔁 Why Lenz Drag Reduces Instead of Increasing Normally, coils reflect their reaction back to the source through Lenz law. In this system, the reaction is split between two out-of-phase return paths inside L2 and L3. Because the two halves cannot recombine into a single opposing field, the source experiences far less reflected impedance. The result: The input side becomes highly reactive (low real power draw) 12.3 V 280ma The output side delivers stronger, in-phase usable power 14.5v 280ma peaking to 425ma This is consistent with the behavior seen when reactive and real power become physically separated into different pathways. ⚙️ Measured Behavior During testing: The primary input source current drops, From near half an amp startup peak to 280ma indicating reduced real power consumption. While the load does not drop power like the input does after peak usage. It increases. The output feeding an external DC load rises in voltage and current as you can see in the video. The C1 capacitor no longer charges like a normal DC capacitor. Good sign in this mode!!! The waveform becomes asymmetrical. Crude measurements show performance in the COP 1.25–1.30 range This behavior is consistent with reactive-to-real conversion observed in other asymmetric resonant systems. 🌐 Why This Matters This experiment brings together several ideas that have historically been studied separately: Capacitive displacement excitation Air-core resonant induction Lenz-reaction splitting Multi-domain wave mixing Reactive energy redirection By combining these effects, the system demonstrates a unique resonant mode where reactive energy circulates internally, while usable real power appears at the output with reduced drag on the source. This video documents that behavior in a clear, replicable way. I fix "expose" lenz drag. You are welcome.
