That is the sending parts and the receiving part is a coil as close to the first 30 turn coil in size and shape. I can post more details if interested . This will transfer about 3 watts using a frequency of 250khz over a distance of about 1 inch. Of course you also need a frequency generator with square wave output. The most important part is the coils, the better the q the more efficient it will be.
