Nathan Stubblefield Earth battery/Self Generating Induction Coil Replications

Boy, that was a lucky strike Jim...hope his leads to a breakthough.


If the coil was indeed  bound with hemp rope, there is a possibility that the resin may also be hemp.

So...you might want to position yourself nearer or farther from the smoke, as the case may be, when you do the 'burn test'.

@all,

Thank you everyone for the kind remarks and hopefully some of the suggested tests people have asked for, I will do as soon as I possably can.
Copper dimentions, turns etc must wait until I can build/buy some PVC down pipe and end caps so this coil dosent fall into a heep of copper sprials when I begin to unwind it, and I need some empty spools to wind the copper wires onto as the unwinding proceeds.

Late last night I carrried out two soak test on a small 1/2 inch by 1/4 inch area of the cotton fibres.
I used a syringe to put a single drop of water on the side of the sample while I could look at it under the microscope, it took about 5-6 seconds before for the water began to be absorbed, I put the slow absorbsion down to the fibres being compressed and ultra dry over all these years.

The sample slowly absorbed the water drop, I noticed there was a type of bubbling reaction only at first for about a second, then the cotton fibers began to swell and in about 20 seconds the sample had absorbed the water drop.

This occurred both times

This morning, the sample was seen to be dry once again.

I'm thinking of sending a fairly large sample to someone in the forum who is centraslly located or could divvy it up and send to those who have the most experience or want to have some input in giving their opinion on it, this will include Cotton, String and the two copper wires, why, well cross matching independant testing will verify all results. I could miss something and someone else could pick up on anything missed.

I will answer all those who posted questions to me shortly, in a seperate post.

But first here is the USB Microscope Photos of the FIRST water test I did late last night.


jim

017 = Water droplet is applied
018 = Cotton sample can be seen starting to swell from bottom of sample
019 = Sample continues to swell
020 = Sample is almost full
021 = sample test is now stopped as it has soaked up all the water.

@all, SECOND water test.

This is the second test I did on the same sample, I had identical results as the first sample.
The photos will show you better than I could explain it.

jim

022 = Test begins
023 = cotton begins to swell as the water is soaked accross the sample
024 = Cotton still absorbing the water drop
125 = Test almost done

026 = What sample looks like when dry.

@ electricme
very nice samples.. i used some old cotton bed sheets and i didn't know if they were brown from the dirt or the mild steel alloy i was using.. thanks

@ all
stupid question here
what kind of reading do you get if you were to use the magnesium ribbon wire..
i don't have any ribbon or i would try.. all i got is the alloy wire and it has to be wet and doped to work good..
maybe i will have time to work more on this stuff once i get done with family life stuff with my little girl..
i finaling got some OU with my tpu studies but i think i have neglected my wife in the process.. (not a good thing)
so it might be a couple months before i get to work again in overunity..
you guys and girls are doing good work in this area.. best of luck
i got some solar lights running on this same tech.. they get dim i just dope them with some miracle grow and hello.. bright again..haha

Good job robbie,

I get 1.7v max but as soon as I begin to use it it goes down to 1.4v.
That is still higher than a well charged NiMH so it works with any joule thief.
I can add 4 inches more ribbon to the clip just at the soil and it is good to go for another time which is usually a week.

@jim,
Great photos. I love that microscope!
