Stubblefield coils (bifilar) and speculations

[kevolts]

Hi all I got a 2.7 ? (70mm) long by ??  (6.35mm) wide rod of magnesium and a 12? (305 mm) long by ? ? (6.35mm) wide rod of carbon , (carbon north magnesium south). I got  .722 vdc .066 ma, I got more power with copper to steel 9.62 vdc .140 ma (maybe its my soil) but the funny thing is I got the highest readings with carbon to steel 1.020 vdc  .210 ma. Next I will try to get some super caps hook them up to their own pair of rods then hook the super caps in series and see if this set up can give off more power.

I think this is amazing, I wonder how much ma this thing can give you and if it can be hooked up in series or hooked up to the rods/ super caps set up (if the rods/ super caps set up even works) I cant wait to try these two things, then I will move on to building my first NS coil.

Hi Kevin,

I wonder if your steel is not galvanized (zinc coated) steel. That would still be high, but it does make more sense because the carbon and the zinc are on opposite sides. also good amperage for this kind of thing, I think. Good going.

My soil is sooo neutral. I never get high readings. Its OK it just makes me try harder

After watching this I got to thinking about my consistently low readings. I made a crystal radio. It works. I eventually did prove that, but I don't get a signal; then one day, I turned on an AM radio and discovered there is no AM radio station broadcasting around here.  No AM radiowaves.

I am wondering if that is affecting my earth batteries results. Maybe not, just a thought.

That guy who did that vid is cool. (did you look at the rest of his things? His first is a stop motion that really is funny.)

then I will move on to building my first NS coil.

yeay!

@ Kevolts:

That is strange.  I was getting like 2.4 vdc and up to 9mA's with my similar set-up.  Were they aligned on the meridian? (Not compass north south)  Was the + rod (carbon) in the ground deeper than the -?  The angle measure from the bottom of the rods in the ground should be roughly close to the dip angle for your area.  For me here it was about 60 degrees based upon my separation distance of about 5 feet.  We have had a range of results from different areas but I would check the above to see if this was correct.  Thanks for posting the video link here.  I had seen that before and it made me wonder also what I might get using this method in combination with my other experiments.  He never did say what kind of power he was getting though did he?  I just saw volts readings. Let us know how the super cap tests go. I have always wanted to try that but I only have one here right now.         

@ Jeanna:

You have NO am radio stations near you?  Where the heck do you live?  You must be way out in the boondocks in the pacific northwest somewhere.  Maybe you DO have am stations near you but your coils are acting as a force field blocking the signals?  (Ha ha)
Hey, I just had another idea for standard testing Jeanna.  What if, after recording all of my data on my larger coil here, I dig it up and ship it to you?  You test it and take readings and then, we ship to another in our group, say Gary, and so on, and so on.  What do you think?  Not that my coil is the best or anything, we could use anyone's coil just to compare and either put an end to the soil thing or discover why there is a difference in the soils.  Might this work?

I think in the long run  we will need to  come up  with a standard  coil ...... but passing   a few  coils  around  might be a  way to come up  with  a stndard coil 

I can't  help out much  with how they  react to being in different  locations and soil types .......I am currently living in the  city and  don't have access to  a place to plant them .

@ Bill thanks, I guess I need a better compass to show the meridian and how deep to put the carbon rod. I only separated the rods by 1 foot (305 mm). The funny thing is I guess that the magnesium and the carbon should of gave off a higher reading than the copper steel, but it did not, (maybe something is wrong with the magnesium I ordered.) I will get a better compass so I can try my best to replicate your set up, thanks again for pointing out about the meridian, and I will try my best to get some super caps to try the in series concept.

@ Jeanna
I really don?t know what kind of steel it is but I did get a smaller steel screw and test it with the carbon rod and got about the same. I wonder if there is a way to find out and if there is a way to know if the magnesium is pure, I don?t think I have any flint.
