Trawoeer Power Pyramid Version 12 - Electrical output from a homemade pyramid

[fritz]

Correct me if im wrong, how come a dc fan work, connected directly to the coil without using any diodes? i've seen a pyramid before that purifies water, but not this kind, powering a 12V halogen lamp.... maybe he use rechargable batteries inside the tube 

As long as there is a DC path - (no cap in series) - there is no doubt that a DC current may flow.
There is no iron law that you need a diode to get DC from a coil.
There are lots of possibilities to get DC in that context.
If you think about the early crystal-detector radios - you will realize that there are other ways to achieve semi-conducting properties - without using a "diode".
Or somewhat synchronous demodulation/multiplication would end up with a dc compound...

Another possibility would be that the stuff feeds rf - that rf would be rectified inside the fan by the protection diodes of the driver chip and decoupled by the internal capacitors. This again would add a DC compound to the source lines.
If your rf frequency is well above what the fan input circuitry can decouple (el.caps) - this would work.
Maybe not forever...
But in a setup with 1.5mm wire and pretty low source impedance I would exclude that.

Observations:

Looking at an old video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMbHswNoGWM&playnext=1&list=PL7E73C5CC0455846A showing the first "pyramid power set up" from 2006) and at the new video from a few days ago (http://www.youtube.com/user/Nanotec99#p/u/13/3e0QvgGj2xs showing a new "pyramid power set up") gives the impression that the inventor is still using the same pyramid (made from rectangular cross section iron tubes and gypsum plates with the same ring and short round tube at the peak of the pyramid).

According to my opinion, an inventor or discoverer of "pyramid power" would build and show several pyramids in the course of five years, just to make his point? Since he claims to disclose "everything", showing several pyramids could not hurt his interests, to the contrary, it would greatly contribute to his credibility.

In the new videos http://www.youtube.com/user/Nanotec99 the inventor stresses the careful handling of the tube filled with quartz sand (filled under high voltage and frequency). Since no "compression of the sand" is allowed to happen, the sand will rearrange itself in case the tube is turned upside down. The inventor turns the tube several times upside down and back in the videos, it is also placed several times in a horizontal position. A "not compressed sand" will not keep its "spatial arrangement induced by high frequency or high tension" when handled like this. There will be a bit of empty space (most probably at the top) where the sand will flow into when the tube is turned upside down or placed horizontally.

According to my opinion, the filling of the sand and the subsequent handling of the filled tube is not consistent with its claimed properties. May be it does not mater how the sand is filled in and whether it moves a bit after filling, but the inventor is very adamant that the sand needs to stay in a very special spatial arrangement.

The only "strange" part of the whole pyramid is the filling of the quartz sand and its alleged "strange" properties. And this is not easy to reproduce, such giving an excuse in case the pyramid does not work.

I hope to see several different pyramids in coming videos of the inventor. If not, well .......

I managed to see now all 13 videos over here in North Sweden on te road in ny camping mobile van via my mobile phone after a tire went flat and I had to change it in the middle of nowhere...

Anyway, if this really works to extract the power of leylines, this will be very interesting.
Would have loved to see some scopeshots.

@Stefan: I saw all videos last night. First I was very enthusiastic, but after some long reflections this morning and considering what I know about Austrians (being an Austrian myself) I get some very skeptical feelings.

The behavior of the inventor is not what a discoverer of something really baffling would do. First of all one would build more than one "thing", simply to be able to show it to many people (even under a non disclosure agreement one needs more than one gadget to convince any one). And he claims that it takes about one day to build one and that it dose not cost too much. Even if it takes a week and on a tight budget, within five years one could have several.

In 2006 it was magnets, now it is quartz sand filled in a strange way which does the trick. This does not give me confidence. Tricks in 2006 make tricks in 2011 most likely.

The discoverer should show more devices, than it will be easier to believe him. Full disclosure looks different to what I see and hear in the videos. It is good show, but we need more than a show.

The inventor should invite you and show you several working pyramids. That would be full disclosure. I guess it would not matter to you whether it is "over unity" or "power harvesting from nature".

I tent to follow bolt's opinion: the pyramid receives power from a RF-transmitter somewhere near.
