Selfcharging cap circuit from Larskro fake or real ?

Do "nano crystal multilayer capacitors" really exists?

This shot does not show the thin wire I mentioned in my previous post. However, it does appear that the wires are not soldered to the cap / battery case.

Edit: Forgot to say that the wires are soldered to the RHS tag bent at right angles. It looks like a battery to me.

Hi Groundloop,

I did some google search for  the  term "nano crystal multilayer capacitor"  and found some links from which this can be figured out,  see this  quote "The goal here is primary particle sizes under 10 nm."  from this link:

http://www.netzsch-grinding.com/en/industries-applications/nano-applications/ceramic-multilayer-capacitors-mlcc.html?tx_solr

or this link here: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1551-2916.2009.02979.x/abstract    and

http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1551-2916.2010.04232.x/abstract 

The important material used in such ceramic capacitor is Barium Titanate, BaTiO₃ which may be responsible for temperature change  either as a cause or a response (action - reaction) for a change in excitation. Provided of course that we are not facing a fake setup, I give the benefit of doubt till attempted replications show failures.

Gyula,

Thank you for the information. So he uses a normal X7R type capacitor, then.

In those two pix you can see the feature that makes me think it's a battery instead of a capacitor. Every capacitor of that type I've seen is a fat short cylinder. But this thing has that "accordion bellows" type of structure where it could be two disc batteries stacked together. It's not a cylinder, it has that circumferential valley.  I've never seen a capacitor like that but I have seen batteries that looked like that. The terminals would be on opposite faces.
I can't tell where the soldering is, but it does look like some wires come together at the side away from the camera.
