Energy Revolution System Maintenance: Keeping the Build Healthy

Continuity-check every solder joint and terminal. Cold joints and vibration-loosened screws are the number-one cause of mysterious output drops in hobby rigs of this class.

Neodymium magnets lose strength above their temperature rating (typically ~80°C for N52) and corrode if the plating chips. Keep them dry, away from tools that might chip the coating, and never let two large magnets snap together bare-handed.

Bulging capacitors or hot rectifiers mean replacement time — both are commodity parts costing a few dollars. Swapping them is a ten-minute job if you kept the build modular.

Dust and humidity are the coil's enemies. A sealed project box with silica gel packets preserves winding insulation. Avoid mechanical stress on the spiral — deformed geometry changes electrical characteristics.

Every few months, rerun your standard input/output test under the same load. Comparing against your own baseline is the only measurement that stays honest as parts age.
