    Bloody love magnets, they're so cool. "Supplied by Bang Good" Sounds like a porn site 😅😆🙃

    Great vid but you should be more careful your a shock hazard waiting to happen! Lol. I may have to buy one and put in nicer box with cooling. Thumbs up

    Mine worked great for a couple of months then one day it just slammed down and now it won’t work. I would buy another one if it lasted longer. It must have overheated from leaving it on for a couple of days.

    The feedback control loops are high gain and under-damped because you need really fast response

    I would put a heat sink on those transistors so they last longer. Just a strip of Aluminium with some thermal grease applied in between it. Either spring load it with clips on the edge of the pcb or glue it with superglue/T-8000. I am curious about the schematic also. There is a DIY assemble kit for about $30 on Ebay, I bet that would include the schematic and explain more about the trim pots purpose.

    Hi! What will happen if you turn the platform off the electricity? The magnet will hit nearest magnet on the platform?

    How long does it spin?

    could you levitate a smaller magnet? (i.e 3mm/25mm)

    I just received one of these. I can't get the magnetic disc to balance. It worked randomly a couple of times, now it just throws the magnet off. I can't get it to balance at all. I've tried adjusting the pots with varying degrees of change to the pull strength etc. Any ideas before I toss it in the trash ?
