Hello Guys,
This is my first post so forgive me if its in the wrong section. I made a microwave transformer electromagnet for a robot I am making. i removed the secondary and all that and just left the primary. The primary coil is about 1/2 in below the top (not resting on the bottom of the "U"). When i connect a 9v battery to it, the coil ends spark but the entire transfomer does not seem to get magnetized. Could anyone help me? Thanks a lot.
