@ Jesus

Bottom right of the IST photo looks like a bulb, its a filliament I think.
The wire going to it goes down under the bulb center contact, exits out the side to earth, mabye.

@ist

It is a little difficult for us newbies to understand the details that you already know.

To be successful on teaching your great knowledge about the TPU systems I recommend using an approach like this.

Remember, even though it seems that I know electronics, I am just a newbie and there are a lot other newbies that if not given the details will never understand.

The devil is on the details.

Very interresting circuit, ? = iron ring?
press the button and it dumps the power  ZAP into the ring, magnetic fiels resonates, bingo more zap and grunt.

@ Bill

Thanks mate, for the congrats, its been a long haul as you are aware.

Jim:

Way to go buddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There it is.  Great photos too.  This is great news and you deserve the recognition and credit for this.

I still think we should be calling these EER's. (Earth energy Receivers)  No matter what the configuration, I now believe it is not a battery at all. (And never was, even in NS's time)

How is the power on these?  Have you had a chance to check that yet?  Have you tried parallel also? (Lots of questions from over here in KY)

I tried to answer your pm but the site would not let me.  I will try again later.

So, as Jeanna said, you could run your heat from this if you had enough of these in your yard?  And this is not even taking into account supercaps or JT cirrcuits.....man...look out!

Very nice job Jim, very nice indeed.

Bill

I will try all these out as soon as I can, I got a lot to do right now, I went out just before to check up on it, the V have fallen to 4 v and a bit, but I expected this, lets see what happens over the next week, I want to let this cell arangement settle down before I do anything drastic with it.

BUT, it is STILL outputting in volts and it is in series, which is really something.

@ all,
I know I should have announced this on Bills EB forum, but I needed to post here first, well you all know me here, and I wanted to share this with you all first. I will fill the other site up with the details, he he.

@Jeanna,
With the heat, shop around for a tarp, which has a silver or white reflective coating, make a leen-too with it, and setup shop there, bounce that heat up and away, or paint the roof with silver reflective paint, like most places out my way, or knock a hole in the attic and blow the hot air out of the inside of the roof.

@Jesus

Shucks, I don't need more stars, dey gettin tooo heavy lol
Yes lets hope it is not galvanic, well, we will seee, gulp.
Its nice to know I am appreceiated, and it means a lot just now, thanks Jesus.

At General @electricme

I join to the celebration of your success and do expect that the energy produced wont be galvanic.

You desrve the success you have had!!!

We appreciate you very much General Jim.

Jesus

He, I just had a bad thought, what say Ist carnt replicate my success, huuuum, wont that be something, lol.

Seriously though, this has been a wonderful day for me, I've had Fun Fun Fun and I so glad to have shared it all with the best bunch of Blokes and Lady on the Overunity Forum.

We all have our moments, and we all kick and holler at each other like brothers and sisters, BUT know how to say sorry, and we get on with the main job at hand.

@ Jim:

OK, you have had more than enough time.... are you getting 500kW out of your set-up yet????? (Ha ha)

Seriously, I really can't wait to see what happens next.

@ Xee2

Thanks Xee for the congrats, and you are very right, just add them for higher voltages.

@ electricme

Congratulations. That means you can get any voltage you want just be adding more cells. Very cool.

I see IST is going to do some gardening in a hurry, use a sharp shuvvvvle IST, it goes faster he he.

I was looking for your post here, I noticed in a previous look through but couldnt see it, I wanted to thank everyone as each post came in.

I see I have some PMs so I gota go there shortly.

But first, could you throw up a quick circuit for us all, showing all 7 cells, showing a plastic which goes from the outside, down and under the bottom each cell, its an important key to the series EER as Bill suggests.
