Nathan Stubblefield Earth battery/Self Generating Induction Coil Replications

@Bill   What a fabulous find!  I have a lot of clay in my soil here. (But not up in my mountain where all this is going.  )
Did you see or does anyone know how to calculate the resistivity of one's soil?
I have some mason's lime in the shed. Perhaps if I mix that into the soil I will get more charge?

Hans,   Thank you for re-providing your link.I finally got there. Great work and information.

I called Don's welding which I found in the phone book. Don is retired and wouldn't take any money for the 4 carbon rods he GAVE me. So, they are 1/4" and covered with a light coating of copper which I will get off somehow. I will take advice on that from anyone who knows.

Bill, Did you ever take a separate reading on that composite of nails you made? did it seem to be as strong as its surface area would predict?

Thanks for the flowers Jeanna,

Go to an electronics store and get some ferric chloride, they use it to etch circuit boards. Just immerse the rods in it, it will take the copper off without damaging the graphite. It is cheap.

Hope this helps.

Hey Guys you gotta try this!!!

i got 0.05 volt at 0.1 miliamp  i took a iron nail (plain slightly rusted) wrapped 15 turn copper wire around it, on one end of the copper coil (around the same nail that is in the ground) i attatched the neg to my amp meter, the positive i attatched to the nail itself, it got that reading above!!! why? the coil alone and nail alone did not get these readings but when the coil was around the nail it did this!

on a side note i origionally tried the 2 coils around this nail to get a step up transformer, i got nothing for some bizzar reason. i stripped the insulation off the wire but nada. however while playing with these coils the ground voltage went up (afterwards) by 0.08 volt... odd.

i need to finish that tesla coil, i wonder how it will work.

also i wrapped a piece of wire insulated once around both of my poles and attatched the amp meter, it generated 0.02 volt. that is wierd too!  i think maybe the nail was acting as an antenna to tap the electricity and allow it to move more freely into the atmosphere. that makes me feel a little more confident using a coil+antenna like the tesla version.

G'day artic,

Looks like you found that elusive AC component that Stubblefield and Bryan are talking about. Well done.

Let's see where this one will lead.

Hey folks make sure to check this out it doesent directly apply to us but some really interesting things in this page.. http://magnetism.otc.co.nz/EarthGrid.htm
