Simple to build isolation transformer that consumes less power than it gives out

[e2matrix]

Here is just the latest reason for the so called experts in a particular field to mind their own business and stick to their own research and leave the "ignorant and the uneducated" be.

" Discovered by accident

As to the new method, it was pretty much discovered by accident. According to the Boston Globe:

Dr. Charles Vacanti is an unlikely protagonist for one of the most startling scientific discoveries in years.

The genial 63-year-old anesthesiologist who left stem cell scientists shaking their heads in wonder and puzzlement last week, with the discovery that a simple acid bath could be used to generate powerful stem cells, doesn't even have a PhD.

Vacanti is an accomplished tissue engineer and the chairman of the Anesthesiology Department at Brigham and Women's Hospital, but he's a virtual outsider to the highly competitive and fast-moving stem cell field. ...

His discovery is a reminder that as specialized as science is, sometimes, a little ignorance may be a virtue. A stem-cell expert would probably never have even bothered to try the experiment Vacanti has been pursuing, on and off, since the late 1990s."Learn more:  http://www.naturalnews.com/043843_stem_cells_scientific_breakthrough_pluripotency.html#ixzz2syk6Ekbx

I rest my case...again...for the umpteenth time.

But some people just don't seem to get it, and likely never will...that most significant advancements in a particular field are 'discovered by accident'.

Regards...And your next post: 

All naysaying accomplishes is to stifle free thinking.

Can't you see that ?

You discourage creative thought of other tinkerers with negativity.

Let people find their own way, they may stumble on to something along the way.

Nobody is getting scammed by this concept, so just allow people time and space to dream think build.

Its not that hard...all you have to do is be silent and let things unfold in a natural spontaneous way.

Who knows, you may see something that takes you in the right direction.

But that can't happen when you are making noise and not listening.

Regards...

YES!!!!!!!!   This should be made a STICKY!    Agree 100%
This is not just aimed at Farmhand but is valuable food for thought for everyone.

Be aware that forums are full of builders whose only purpose is to build and show that something does not work. This is to prevent others trying, why bother because it does not work. You can easily spot these people. Typically they have done lots of builds, maybe some youtube videos, are confident and seem to have knowledge. Some are arrogant while others are seemingly helpful. It must be a full day job building such things.
Would I make hundreds of builds and seeing that nothing works, write about it in forums just for the fun of it ? Nope, because there is no fun in a failure. But if you are getting paid for it, then yes, lots of fun indeed.


How to fight against it ? Be skeptic also when you see something that does not work. Another typical case is that you see a video that shows some device actually working and then you get a schematic full of electronic parts. Then honest peole rush in to build. It will never work. There should always be explanation what is supposedly going on in the device and if the device is complex there should be scope shots from relevant parts.


I have done many tests that have failed. Learned from failure but never posted anything about a failed test. I am not getting paid for failures but I do get a good feeling from a success.


And there are no such things as magnetic domain flipping or field lines occurring in the core when coil is energized. That is one of the finest piece of disinformation there is. When people realize that it is actually a sinewave that runs in the core, a multitude of them depending on the drive signal, then you can build a working OU device.


It is pity that we can only measure electrical energy and not magnetic energy. Magnetic energy is the root of all energy, electrical energy created by magnetic energy is merely a residue. If we could measure also magnetic energy then every transformer would be OU. Input is electrical energy, it creates magnetic energy which in turn creates electrical energy in all coils that are in the path of magnetic energy. Electric energy created in the secondary coil does the same thing. So there is one piece of electrical input, two pieces of magnetic energy output and two pieces of electrical energy output. Did not count harmonics here which get created in the process. You can see this happening in the scope shots of a test report in this thread. There were lots of harmonics visible at higher frequencies. Where did they came from if input signal was only 50 Hz ?


So why we stupid people keep on making systems that are such where all energy is wasted inside the transformer core ?

All I can say is that I 100% agree    I suspect also that Lenz effect is purely magnetic because that comply with Newton laws better then current view of energy converted to magnetic field and then to electric in secondary.

Maybe you should learn how perform proper measurements before calling people stupid

Jack, yeah, the naysayers... some of them just repeat their arguments, so you have to skip their replies, unless you want to waste time. But we also need them to some degree, otherwise we'd become kind of a religous trend.


There is a possibility you have to consider: the device may swinig back to mains in a 90,degree out of phase way and cause voltage and current pass the first bulb by one by one and thetefor miss to light it. I hate to say that, but this at least a possibility. The harmonics I guess come from the recursive 2:1 coupling of the shortened secondary.


Try to use a coupling after the wattmeter, like: transform to 12vdc, use a inverter to get mains-like source. Now the wattmeter should read correctly. Does the effect persist?
