[QUOTE="Robertjpaul, post: 6308227, member: 674584"] Hi all. New to the forum and new to making electromagnets. I want to pick your brains as I know extremely little about electromagnets. So I have a 2 1/2 inch round x 1 inch thick rare Earth magnet that I’m trying to repel with force using an electro magnet. The repel would be in bursts. I know the rare Earth magnet is rated for around 400 pound lift. Also I’m using a 12v car battery for my experiment. I have access to soft iron of any size. My questions are. What diameter and length iron would work best. What gauge magnet wire do you recommend? How many turns do you feel is needed for this magnet? What amps would get me the most power or adequate power for my experiment? I know nothing about any of this. I’ve tried searching but I keep finding equations I don’t understand. [/QUOTE]
