David Bowling's Continuous Charging Device

Mags: Brilliant!!!
I would just add that weight of the skyscraper substitute is important. The heavier the better!!!


I know that Bedini did a pendulum version and I believe the thing worked for many years although he "tapped" it electronically using the usual magnets and coils.


The device can take time to tune. Tesla used a stethoscope device which I understand was like a pressure censor, and he used this as a feedback device.

Hey Aking

Yes, I agree. Im going to try a couple different plexi strips with some different weights, magnets, may as well, instead of tuning with dead weight then adding mags and readjusting, you know.
I think ahead before I commit. Sometimes too much, but thats me.

Its not going to be a big thing. Tabletop model.   Im going to try manual signal tuning first. Then if things get interesting, possibly an arduino to time the pulses.  I figure a small magnet a bit higher from the tapper magnet on the pen, and use a linear hall sensor to track the pen swing and ping where ever I want during the swing. This way it will get perfect timing whatever level of swing the pen is in at any time. But first Im going Tesla style. Tune, tune, tune.      Thats what its all about isnt it.

Not to try to take anything away from any experiment as experiments are always good, I love to watch video's of people interesting experiment.

But I can go out into a paddock or the bush and destroys trees by the same principal more or less that Tesla used for his mechanical tapper.

If the tree has no leaves it works better because there is less "damping".

WARNING! This is dangerous to do, limbs will fall from the tree, do not try this at home unless you are an experienced tree destroyer. 

It can be done different ways. ( I might do this to get dry wood or to make safe a smallish tree with dead limbs ).

Simply put I can just stand at the base of the tree with no leaves preferably a dead tree, and shake it in time with it's responses so that the tree ends up shaking way more than it can take structurally and breaks apart. If a tree has many leaves it is naturally damped from the leaves causing wind resistance and even if there is dead branches in the tree the damping may prevent me from being able to shake the tree enough to break the dead limbs off.

Or I can climb up the tree a bit and begin to sway my entire weight up in the tree a bit in time with it's responses so that I build up enough energy to snap off the tree at it's trunk underneath me, the higher you go the easier it is to break the tree or the bigger the tree a certain person can break. ( I do this to get feed for the goats in dry weather, so they have some living green feed to eat).

I bet people were bringing down trees with resonance many decades before Tesla was even born. Tesla did not "invent" resonance, he does not own it either just like anyone else they cannot own or patent a process of nature itself only the way they induce it.

Certainly no Over Unity happening when I bring down a tree by swaying it, just like no Over Unity if I was to bring down a building with the same principal using a "Tapper", it's nothing more than an accumulation of energy. Power is not energy.

A lot of energy goes into the tree growing and putting up in the air all the mass the tree has up there, without nature ( or men in the case of a building)  having done the work to get the mass up there, not only would it not work as there would be no mass but there would be no point as there would be nothing to "shake", to even begin the experiment a certain amount of work is done and locked up as potential energy in the mass at height, without that there is nothing to work with.

People use resonance quite often and do not even realize it because it is so natural.

I'ts actually quite funny when I bring down trees for goat feed, they hang around the tree but stand back a bit and when they see me start to sway the tree they all get excited and cheer me on, then when the tree hits the ground all I hear is crunch, munch, grunt, gulp x 6. hehehehe. If I do it right the tree regrows from the trunk break and it grows foliage at a height the goats can eat it at will. Win-win-win situation eg., firewood - feed and the tree root system stays intact.

Cheers.

Well I think we have an advantage with the table top unit where we can know the resonant freq of the pen before setting the tapper.    Back then, Tesla would have had to get the building moving then somehow measure the freq of the building or the tapper. We have superman tools these days to help us with this task.

Im thinking I need a bigger boat, I mean base.  I loved that from Jaws. I think we need a bigger boat!     Well, more sold and heavy.    It could be scaled to any size but the base must be solid and stationary.  There is a few things to think about still.

I agree Mags a solid base is vital. Hey Mags, is there any chance you could maybe make a new thread for this ? Maybe experiments with mechanical resonators "Tesla Tappers" or some such title. It is a very interesting subject.

I refuse to hold grudges so no one should think I have anything personal against them, I hope the same consideration can be given to me but if not so be it. I much prefer to co-operate than compete. I think we all (or most of us) want the same thing, to study, contemplate, experiment and look for new sources of energy to utilize or new ways of exploiting the energy of the unending quantum fluctuations, or going by another name "The Aether itself".
