Nathan Stubblefield Earth battery/Self Generating Induction Coil Replications

[MrSpates]

I agree with putting power into the earth to get more out, thats always been along my line of thinking, just like putting an antenna into the air to draw positive down to negative, but on the other hand if you could get enough power from the earth and channel it back into itself, you'd probably see some good results there. I'm fascinated with the fact you can bury copper plates 20 ft in the ground and keep a battery charged, I don't see how that could be done unless you have a well boring rig as the majority of backhoes won't even go that deep. As soon as I have time I plan to hook my 1.3v earth battery up to a microwave transformer which is 2 copper coils put together enclosed in a steel frame ( I have no idea what the copper is wrapped around) and plant it, hopefully I'll get something worth mentioning.

@ MrSpates:

My interpretation of the guy's comment was that he buried the copper plate, and used 24 feet of wire to the other al electrode. This tells me that he just buried the plate and went 20 feet to the south, otherwise, he would have needed much more than 24 feet of wire to connect.  I am guessing that he did not bury the plate 20 feet deep.  does this make sense?

@ Bill

It would just about have to, but then again I've seen plans for earth batteries that call for copper pipes to be buried 8-10 ft for best results. Now this is just off the top of my head, but do any of you live in an area where there are caves? (I don't) bury some copper in a cave, hook up a wire and run it out. You'd be down there where stronger currents run.

Evening All,

I don't think we will have to go very deep to tap the telluric current. 

I have finished winding my coil.  It has five layers as did Stubblefields.  I will stop there.  I simply sprayed it down with water and did my power test.

Volts -
.709

Amp -
81.8 ma's   

Tomorrow, I will connect it in series with the N.S. Electrodes and take readings before and then after, and see.  I will not be burying it, for tomorrow's experiment, but will use it like a battery.  I don't think these coils will do anything when buried, UNTIL they have their secondaries and the make and break, to pulse it.

Slow steady progress.  My coil is rust stained from my previous coil, and is not pretty, but it should work.

Cheers,

Bruce

@ Bruce:

Gee, 81.8 mA?  Is that all?  That's only like FOUR times the amount my coil puts out!!!!!! Ha ha.  Nice work.  That is almost 1/10 of an amp.  We are playing in a much different ballpark now and that is the record.  Fantastic.  Interesting that the volts do not seem to increase with the additional windings and length though.  This is the same range Joe and I have.

Hypothesis:  If one built a coil 4 feet long with 20 layers, we might have several amps of power.  To me, power is everything here.  I still think we will see increases when buried, but, you might be right about the secondary too.  Time, and experiments, will tell.  Incredible Bruce, great job!
