LCAP (Again) Possible Free Energy. (Voltage Gain Over time)

Thanks TGH,

i will use a fixed 1M resistor  and see how low i can go using my bench PS.

I have reduced the frequency using the potmeter from 50Hz to 12.5Hz (it locks in at 50, 25 and 12.5Hz) and overnight the voltage stayed stable at 2.543V.
I will measure the potmeter to see what value it has now.


Seeing your signals would be nice for comparing, so if possible, yes, please try so.

I measured the potmeter resistance in the 2.5V @ 12Hz position and it was 78K.

When substituting the potmeter for a fixed 1M (1.02M) the frequency dropped to 1Hz depending on what led was in.
So i had to increase the voltage again (4x AA = 5.090V) to get a 7Hz frequency.

I will let it run again overnight.

Okay, sounds good. I'll get those waveforms.
My 1Mohm pot  was actually .8M real resistance so that's what I'm using now since I don't have any 1M resistors on hand.
Maybe a .8Kohm resistor would work better then 1M.

No increase overnight, instead i lost 1 mV, so now at 5.089V.

Adjusted my potmeter to be 800K and put back instead of the fixed 1M resistor.
Frequency went up to 8Hz, so i will leave it again running (8Hz @ 5.089V).....

This morning the voltage has dropped to 5.087V.

Still waiting for those tantalum caps, which could make the difference??
