If current is flowing, you have a field. Trust me, you have not violated the laws of physics. Try using a compass needle near the open end of the coil.I got it 10 times in 3 layers.. I tried my most powerful power source, but it did nothing. no magnetic field whatsoever...
...and may not get that opportunity, if he's not more careful.Discharging 5000μF into such a low impedance could cause quite a bang. I'm not sure that would be completely safe - bear in mind that the OP may not be an adult.
There are times that replies on AAC can be funnier than a face plant on those "Hey, watch this videos"!...and may not get that opportunity, if he's not more careful.
Hah! That's what SHE said!A Bang; more like a little poof.
I don't think it's possible to saturate an air core coil.I'm betting more like 5uH to 15uH, as there is no core.
Saturation would occur quite rapidly.
