An apparatus and method for drastically increasing the efficiency of a single phase AC motor. A DC solid state driver is used to pulse a combination of the motor coil and a series capacitor. The coil/capacitor combination allows the motor to run near resonance (or a multiple of resonance). This results in a flywheel effect that only requires pulses at the proper time to keep it going. The solid state driver is powered by pulsed DC at around 150 volts peak and clocked at 60 Hz by a square wave timing circuit. |
