You will find below all the details and diagrams for building and test yourself the Transdimensional's Lifter experiment.

The Basic Lifter is a very light weight device, only one upper frame is built and the aluminum sheet must be very thin. This is a very fun experiment which worth to be replicated.

The Basic Lifter is maintained on the ground base with 3 thin nylon threads to avoid that it escapes to the ceiling...
The Basic Lifter remains very stable above the ground while the power supply is energized. A 330 Kohms/10 Watts resistor is connected in serie with the HV Output to limit the current flow.

This High Voltage power supply used is able to generate up to 25-30kV DC Output from a 12-24v DC input. With a fully adjustable DC input power supply (0-24V/4A), it is possible to adjust the HV output between 5 to 30kV. This HV power supply use a common flyback driver circuit with two 2N3055 power transistors as a push-pull oscillator. A common flyback transformer from an old TV/monitor can be used, the transformer HV output is connected to a 30kv Voltage tripler which commonly used in all color TV monitors.

In the Basic Lifter experiment the DC Input of the HV Power supply is 15 V @ 2.3 A.

BE CAREFUL, USE EXTREME CAUTION !!!, this device use High Voltage, ALWAYS switch off the input and discharge the output to the ground through 10k/2W resistor before touch it. These plans are not intended for the inexperienced. User of this document should be very carefull and experienced in High-Voltage electronics to try anything out ! If you do it the risk of any results is just yours. I take no responsibility of anything that might happen.

The Lifter1 works also very well with this 30KV power supply
