Energy from the Ground - Self powered generator by Barbosa and Leal

[Liberty]

Has anyone had a chance to test the patent app, as to whether there is a new novel effect to generate power?  I have read the patent and put together what I understand would be a suitable test circuit below.

It appears that one would want to limit the power input side, due to the closed loop on the transformer, will tend to smoke the primary without a current limit on input.  It would also seem necessary to extend the 2 coil winding to another transformer so power could be extracted from the circuit in the second transformer at a proper voltage output.

Here a video with a replication of the system:

Liberty, I can not see your sketch because it seems to be moved by the formating of the text

From what I can see in the video, the replication only has a shorted loop.  You have to extract energy from the loop to see if it is more than what was supplied from the input circuit.  I can't tell that the video really shows any excess output at all, but it looks like his loop has a bad solder joint. 


Here is my schematic drawing of a test circuit.

Does that video show a connection to an earth ground? If so, I didn't see it. Can someone draw out the schematic of the video?

I didn't see a schematic diagram either.  It would have been very helpful.  It appears to me that the primary on both transformers were being used for input.  I didn't see an earth ground either.
