Hi everybody,

I am watching a verrrry interesting interview.
Anyone interested in what pulsing can do should have a look.
This is an interview of a person doing pulsing experiments in the 50's.

This is about an hour long. I like it better than all the theory happening these days.

enjoy.

With sincerity, what would be the benefit to me or anyone else if I did build one?

If one knows their multiplication table well, of what benefit is there to try and learn it again?

@ All:

Even the Military is catching on to the JT circuit:

Here is a photo of my Lidmotor Jeanna Light replication to date.  I am just awaiting the 3.375" toroids.  Gadget said that Allelectronics told him they were out of them and would not be getting any more in, ever.  If my shipment arrives as scheduled, this may mean I bought the last 4 of them.  The single 1.5 volt battery I am planning on using is rated at 14,000 mA hours.  This is way more than Lidmotor's 2,300 mA hour battery that ran the cfl for over 36 hours.  I anticipate being able to run it much longer than that.  We will see.

What will YOU do when the Grid GOES DOWN ? BURN Candles ? What if there no sun because something happens ?We experiment to protect our selves  and our loved ones . We wont be sitting in the dark. please answer the above questions. I have answered enuff . Its time to make your own ., Weather i win the contes and get STEPHANS money or NOT one thing I will prove . How easy it is now to make a self runner . I have explained in the SSJT thread this comment .

Take it easy and do nothing  but calculate ,speculate and aggravate and you will be the one in the dark.. .While us Builders  who openly share will be reaping the fruits of our harvest .
