well, gk, have you got something interesting working?

Yes Tesla had an interesting life, I have one of those books also, interesting that he believed he had intercepted radio communications possibly from alien life, but most likely from sources on earth back then... Like Leonardo he could build his machines in his mind first... very cool...

I would recommend his Colorado Springs notes... I wish I was technical enough to be able to understand them, I am sure they are an absolute goldmine.

I hope at the end of this when someone discovers a working device that they can post the instructions for creating a little portable one that could be used to power a small device like a laptop for free, that would be really useful... I know the end goal is larger, just batteries are a pain, and portable power is so useful, just an obsession of mine... I will get there one day...

     You just need to get hold of that company that sells pulse chasers and have them modify the output voltage for 12vdc.  They come in models up to 1gigawatt.

Here's the book on-line, if anybody's interested: http://www.scribd.com/doc/337910/Nikola-Tesla-Colorado-Springs-Notes

Check out page 45 for a cool mechanical "rapid break" thingy. It's somehow analogous to PWM square wave pulser with low duty-cycle.

    GK is a much better engineer than SM ever thought of being.  He knows if you are going to send an em pulse that results in a scalar em field you are an idiot to bring it around the ring again.  Can anyone say runaway magnetic disruption.
Even the Tesla Howitzer designers knew enough not to bend the barrell into a ring configuration.  See below.
