Stubblefield coils (bifilar) and speculations

[jeanna]

every1 taking a break or has every1 moved somewhere else?

Hi lbnc,
Welcome to this thread.

I was just trying to get the patent pdf for you, but the pat2pdf server must be down. It was my favorite pat place, so I don't have another. I have an acrobat pdf of this patent, but I cannot manipulate it, (which is why I wanted to get you a link.)

Hopefully tomorrow it will be back and I can get it for you It is good to read and reread it. I used to read it every day. I got tons of insight all the time. I just haven't had much luck.

However, I still get better results than I do on the crystal battery for instance, so I have not given up.

I think taking a break is all it is.

A couple of weeks ago I found out I was using the wrong kind of capacitor, so I changed that and this should keep the coil oscillating as I think is the idea. Then I put a resistor across the output ends (5, and 6) which slowed it down, but it bounced back.

Trouble was that I left the meter on waiting for it to get to the full power and kept packing my car to go to a workshop and forgot it. So I returned a week later to a very wet dmm and probably one that needs a battery replacement.

That is the sorry state of affairs here.

More later. he he.

Again, welcome, and have fun!

Yes, we are still here.  Hey Jeanna, sorry about your meter.

I am still planing to acquire some more wire and wind a larger coil.  I want to do one with some real mass to compare to my smaller ones.  I still have not given up on the multiple electrode approach either.  Somewhere, way back, I found a site that offered a magnesium block designed for protecting in-ground tanks that they said would put out 1 amp.  I always wanted to bury this thing and connect it to my carbon rods in the N/S alignment to see what could be obtained.  Hopefully, I will have some money soon to do this.

I hope everyone is well and still thinking of great things.

OK the p2p server is back
Here is the link to everyone's favorite patent :

@Bill,

Its ok. How much abuse can the poor little thing take?

I thought I killed it in June, now this. I may just buy a back up meter even tho it seems OK again.

if you notice in the patent, we are all assuming the secondary coil can be covered by modern plastic because stubblefield says to cover it with "mica, celluloid,or equivelent material", which mica and celluloid are early insulators. My problem is that early celluloid was flammable and decomposed easily, while mica can be an insulator but is also used as a material for capacitors. we dont know what kinds of mica stubblefield had available or used. Another intresting thing is judging from the way he wrote about the seconday coil i got the impression it was bare until the last winding was done then he "encased" it in these materials. Hope my ramblings make sense.
