Would a copper-coated steel wire having a coating of solder do for wrapping the wires?
A15) We don’t think so, solder, for some reason, was not even to be used on the connections. Q16) The coils wound with the stated turns on the Mini-Romag stator do not add up to the sizes given. Why not? A16) We probably should not have given coil sizes, just the number of turns. However, we found these coil sizes by actually measuring our coils after winding. All our work was HAND WOUND and it is the human element that adjusts what is possible to what theory says should be the finished sizes. It was a tight fit, but it did fit nevertheless. Maybe reducing the number of turns until the coil fits is the easiest solution. Q17) Was the acrylic dome just for protection against the weather? A17) Probably not. Other magnetic units needed to have the air space around them CONTAINED so that the air could be magnetically charged. As we spun our unit, waves of magnetic energy could be felt several inches away from the stator. Q18) Are the mounting points for the copper stator actually rivets tha
