"Chris's Non-Inductive Coil Experiment" - https://www.aboveunity.com/thread/non-inductive-experiment/

Sticky, 41K views, 355 comments, first post 08 Oct 2019 (last post 08 Aug 2026), tagged ABOVE-UNITY. Page 1 of 8 read. - Sykes's coil: layer one 88 turns, layer two 43 turns; "0.33 + -0.33 + 0.33 = 0.33. Two thirds of my Coil is canceled out"; follows "the works of Andrey Melnichenko and even Tariel Kapanadze's". Quotes Sweet's "Nothing is Something" on c = 1/sqrt(mu epsilon) and "team waves". - Input coil 76 turns, then reduced to 12; "effective 45 turn to 12 turn ... step up of 3.75". - Seven videos; video 4 shows a "choking effect" Sykes describes as "The Conservation of Energy Law is Invoking at its last possible chance ... As far as I know, never been shown before". - 27-28 Oct 2019: "Asymmetrical Regauging: 10% On Time and 90% Off Time"; "Just a single DC Pulse, 10% Duty Cycle of 3000 Cycles per Second"; "The Input was DC 12V @400ma. Above is the Output, some data off screen, my 10x probes are not enough to accurately grab all this data." Recipe: "Three Coils ... Two Diodes ... A Core that you have enough room to move the Coils around"; primary ~25 turns, partnered output coils ~250 turns each. Sykes: "Andrey Melnichenko was right, but just had the implementation wrong in the pdf he shared." - Sykes also writes: "one can have Asymmetrical Regauging and still be Below-Unity! Some Fiddling is required!" and compares his waveform with "Tom Bearden's Asymmetrical Regauging". - Replicator report (dewetw, 30 Oct 2019): N87 ferrite core, output coils ~35 m of 0.5 mm wire each, input ~12 m (1:3), CREE/Wolfspeed driver, UF5405 diodes, non-inductive resistor loads: "I got the effect that you are talking about - the saw tooth ... Now, I never saw any result where I am getting more than about 0.82 COP." Sykes replied with an explanation of the waveform, not with a COP figure. - patrick1 (23 Oct 2019): "finally i finished the replication today. successful of course, but thats because it isnt OU." - Jagau (16 Oct 2019) noted the scope disagreed with the multimeter at 31:50 of a video; Sykes agreed DMMs "should not be considered accurate if one is working at reasonable frequencies".

"Floyd Sweet VTA Partnered Output Coils" - https://www.aboveunity.com/thread/floyd-sweet-vta-partnered-output-coils/

Started 08 Apr 2025 by LordVëber (Neal); 25 comments; last post ~Sep 2026. - Sykes (10 and 28 Apr 2025) rejects Bearden's magnet "conditioning": "This is just nonsense ... The 'Conditioning' that was spoken of, changed at least two or three times"; says the VTA used "Asymmetrical Electromagnetic Induction" and cites Sweet's E = (B x V) + (-B x -V) = 2(B x V). Sykes: "I have shown you how to get an output, how to Generate Energy in excess of the Input" and "Marcel [FringeIdeas] has succeeded, but now has the refinement phase". Same post: "we have not succeeded, in general." - LordVëber cites US4210859A as a DC-bias/orthogonal-field analogue for conditioning. - Long post by "Anor" (~Sep 2026): a structured analysis of the Sweet VTA numbers. It separates the 1986 lab notes (1"x4"x6" plates, 12-turn #12 output coil, 7 V x 143 uA input, 24.2 V x 4.6 A ~111 W at ~400 Hz) from the 1991 Sweet-Bearden report (60 Hz, >1 kW, 6 lb, weight reduction). It works out that a 0.5 uT drive field "triggers; it does not deliver", proposes a bench test (heat a running device ~10 K and see if frequency moves), lists industrial field-cooling analogues (Wiegand wire US3820090, US2893107A, EAS markers US6011475A), and has a section "What does not add up" (no replication of conditioning found; 12-turn flux-swing problem unresolved; "The 1 kW and 5 kW claims do not sit comfortably with the stated wire gauges"). Third-party forum analysis; the "143 uA" input figure differs from the transcription line "0.023mw" (see hyiq.org note).

"Non-Inductive Coil Experiment Replication" and "Measurements" (saved, page 1 only)

files/aboveunity-non-inductive-coil-experiment-replication.txt: page 1 only, mostly navigation; replication details not captured (next run: read in Chrome, all pages).
files/aboveunity-measurements.txt: forum measurement protocol thread (2019). Sykes: "New Rule: Any COP > 1 Claims must be accompanied by Measurements please!"; an example where RMS across a 0.25 ohm shunt gave 59.5 W input and the scope mean gave 17.1 W, with Sykes noting "RMS is always positive, it does not give an indication of the direction of power. ... You should use Mean".
