Nathan Stubblefield Earth battery/Self Generating Induction Coil Replications

[Pirate88179]

Sorry, I forgot to post the results after the charge.  The cell had:

1.8 vdc
2.0 mA

This was after charging the led circuit for 5 minutes.  A bit of a drop but not too bad.  The led was NOT connected in the circuit while charging the cap.

You should be able to see that here. The light that is reflecting is off the bottom of the cap.  The led + lead (red) was not connected to the circuit. The red jumper wires are off the carbon (+) and the blue jumper wire is off the mag. block,
(-)

@ sid10:

Thanks, I was assuming it was something like that, but never really saw it explained.

@mramos:

You said you would really like to see an led lit up in the ground using two elements? (electrodes?)  Did you mean a picture of it?  Or, did you mean at your location?  I was going to hook the cap. back to the cell and fully charge it up.  I can tie in the led and take a photo of it for you.  I may be obtaining more mA than my meter is showing. (digital)  I dug my analog meter out but have not tested with it.  I will.  Also note I am not using a resistor, just the supercap. It definatley lights brighter using the supercap on the cell than without.

Sorry for all of the posts but, I have a little more info.

Hans suggested a while back to test using analog meter.  I have finally done that:

Side by side test of the cell in its current confiuration shows exactly the same on all three measurements.

1.8 vdc
3.2 vac
2.0 mA

Now, I have read about digital meters showing ac when none present. I was not sure about analog but I tested a "D" cell battery with both meters and they both read ac on it. Exactly the same.  mramos, what does this mean? I really wish I had a scope, or used Hans's idea of the audio amp. to check the secondary for and volts at all to prove/disprove ac.

I am attempting to fully charge the capacitor as I type this.  I am in typing where it is warm and almost time for a cold beer. (All these tests make me thirsty)

As far as the plates theory goes, some of the patents listed throughout the topic involved the use of plates.  IF one could find, and afford, carbon and magnesium plates, I am almost sure that, due to the increased surface area, all readings would be better. I would have a question after reading the post about the diurnal charecteristic properties of the telluric currents (mentioned in the patent that looked like a chain link fence) weither to install them horizonally (like some) or vertically. (like others)

I kind of like the picture of the led buring in the dark on my kitchen table. I may use that as my wallpaper on my desktop for a while.

I was reading about NoPoPo cells which use carbon and magnesium.  They are getting somewhere around 500mah in there AA cells.  I wanna try these in plate form if I can find it.

I was also wondering since we can use copper as a positive electrode, does using copper wire connected to the negative electrode deter the flow somehow?

I love working with you all, you are good people and God willing we will get somewhere with this.

Hans, I am very thankful, that you are here.   I think with your help we can succeed.   Maybe you should setup a separate thread for Meyer device to replicate it (just a suggestion) Or if Joe has nothing against it we can run it in parallel with Earth Batteries here.
