Hi Monte,
I haven't built a "bedini" motor per say, I've built a few based on the original "Lenz" concept which was used to prove the "Lenz law" then later went on to experimenting with the "Adams motor" which is what I believe the bedini motor principal is based on. One of my early models ran for 6 months by switch charging 2 dead 9V batteries. The coils ran about 20 degrees below ambient for the whole time. Later I went on to building some more advanced models the last one shown below... This one had dual rotors with 4 coils. Each coil had 2 windings (primary and secondary) for extracting back emf. The voltage going into the caps sometimes exceeded 1500 volts. When connected to 2 8ft flourescent bulbs, had no trouble powering them up to full light. The motor ran at 7200 rpm and ran from a 12V battery drawing about 5 amps. It never made an "over unity" output but It did come in at around 97% as long as it only ran itself and powering flourescents or recharging the secondary battery. So basically it was extreemly efficient as long as it did no real work. I used a hall sensor for the timing and mosfets for powering the coils. I must have spent 2 years playing with about 40 different motors I built before I decided to move on to other things. Then built a magnetic rotary engine followed by a new hobby into the stirling engines... and on and on and still going!
