  Void:   You mentioned: "People have heard boys crying "wolf" here and in similar forums just too many times now over the years, and all that can be found each time,are squirrels.
A good clear working circuit demonstration is what will separate the men from the boys who cry wolf.
Just my own opinion".

   AND, my opinion, as well...   NickZ
   PS.  The problem is not a lack of interested builders,  it's the lack of true self running, OU devices to replicate. Are there any...?

NickZ - Simple question: Did you ever get Tariel Kapanadze's circuit working?

If not, what do you think was the problem?

Is the problem on your part or do you think Tarial Kapanadze is Fake?

Best wishes, stay safe and well in these Boys to Men times,

Chris, Void if you read some back history here on this tread Mr Void knows what he wants and can go to extreme lengths
I can remember Alien Gray being harassed about a project and he just deflected the pressure by saying Void didn't know his harass (silent h) from his elbow, next thing AG was a has-been gone kicked off.

Chris you can be a pain at times but I like you, be careful we don't need to lose any one else !

Alien Grey is an asset, ne1 removing him has an agenda, easy to see. Void and I used to sort of get on. Back in the early days, but I must admit, I am disappointing in that last post!

Lets hope this doesn't stick, I would hate to see EMJ get credit for an age old non-inductive winding technique. 

Nelson is also an asset here! Momentum requires assets!

Thanks Raymondo, glad to know I am a pain!

Best wishes, stay safe and well,

  EMJunkie:  To answer your question, no, I never replicated any of Kapanadze's devices. Nor will I, as he has not open sourced any of his projects. Nor has anyone else been able to replicate any of his devices, as yet.
  I replicated an earlier Stalker schematic and device, that has clear videos, schematics, and full explanations. And that is what I still have on hand. But, I will not waste more time on something that is not clearly showing all the details. Unless...there is some hope that there is a useful and practical purpose to do so. Yes, I have become kind of like Hoppy was, a bit skeptical after all these years.
  Nelson: Please forgive me if I sound confused, but, do you have a self running device (like the one you showed on youtube), or not? I ask because you mentioned that it is not self running. Can you clear that up for me. And if so, why are you looking into other circuits. As your self running device, is the only thing on this whole forum, that self runs. But, you don't want to discuss it?  Correct?
  All I'm really into, are solid state self runners. But, I am an electronic assembler, not an inventor. Like you.
  In anycase,  as you are asking for help, IF, I can be of help to you, con mucho gusto.

So let me ask you guys.  Keeping it simple as I can.

Below is my circuit diagram for the Akula/Ruslan self-powered flashlight.
I greyed out the stuff I feel isn't all that important, at least not for this
post.  The inductor you see could be anything.  Akula used a flyback core,
Ruslan used a pot core and I suppose Nelson could use a pair of bifilar
pancake coils.

I'm not saying one way or another whether this circuit actually works.
Instead, I'm asking this:  If it did work, what would have to happen
in the portion of the circuit I haven't greyed out?

Someone asked the question, "Where does the energy enter the system?"

Suppose for a moment (uh hum), time is the energy we are trying to
get to jump into our devices.  What I mean is, what if we play a little
trick with time.  We know electrical energy typically moves at about
one foot in one nanosecond.  Now imagine if we do a little something
with our inductor where the same electrical energy has to be in two
places at exactly the same time.  Crazy aay?  But just for the sake of
grins let's suppose we have a mechanism to do this.  Then let's suppose
we can get the polarity correct in such a way we can power things
with it.  We can light LEDs, or we can charge a capacitor that keeps
things running.  Or, if we're having a really good day, we can do both.
And it's my suspicion, we have to do both.

If we take the optimistic perspective here that at least one of these
many OU devices we have all seen is real, how could it possibly
work?  I have a hunch the concept is actually very simple and the
technique to make it happen is what's killing us.
