David Bowling's Continuous Charging Device

See, I think there is something wrong with some of the electrical laws. And some of what Im saying is part of that theory.  Will see.

Using your 3 battery measurements – "17.77% is being dissipated as heat by way of ohmic and chemical losses."  Using your 2 battery measurements - 30.32% is being dissipated as heat by way of ohmic and chemical losses...
What % or how many watts is the inverter itself using?

What two battery measurements?
In one test i use only one battery and the inverter,and in the other test,i use the 3 battery configuration.
In both tests,the inverter dissipates the same amount of power +/- .9%
So our error margin is under 1%--i think that is pretty close.

The inverter takes place of what would normally be a resistor, which would completely waste the IxR. Instead the inverter still acts as a resistor for the charging circuit but is  able to convert 60% of that previously wasted power back into usable electricity.  No new science, but clever thinking, if one really needed to charge a 12v battery with 24v. I think the Voodoo begins when battery is subjected to charging with high voltage spikes, which might come later, as Brad adds bits and pieces to the basic circuit.

Not quite.
The inverter is quite reactive--see scope shot below across CVR to inverter input.
