Using toroids is hilarious - surely this will ensure absolute minimum flux linkage because the toroid is containing it all? :-D unless they are using ...

... much less.
It appears that they are using a toroid - that's a new one for me
can't see any benefit other than the 'novelty' may attract optimi...

...e motor works as a reluctance motor. An unpowered toroid will attract the rotor magnets because of its relative permeability of hundreds. It takes ver...

I refuse to watch this! But I do know that Tesla used a toroid made of coiled iron wire as the stator for his "Egg Of Columbus", and maybe his first i...

Ok, now we seem to be going somewhere.... Using another toroid with its original winding (1:1, not 1:1:1) the inductance was 1.95mH and leakage induc...

Maybe there really is not enou...
