How many of you are getting OU?

...
Well, a lot of videos over youtube shows overunity by checking a rising voltage alone, which does not proof anything.
...

Most of people confound voltage, current, power, energy.
A better question would be:
who has canceled his subscription to the grid?
I guess the answer is "nobody".

indeed, most beginners see a rise in voltage and think they've done it...

if you have the money you can go off the grid right now... doesn't mean it's ou... their is a diference between ou and free energy... i got free energy in my gararge... i have a solar panel on gararge roof charging my 12v batt for my pulse motor... it only produces 150mA in full sun though...
just enough to keep my bats up...

Because to me, if a battery was going in the trash because it would not hold a charge anymore, and it get's revived so now it works like new again, in my opinion, that's a form of free energy. ...

Good point.  Landfills have less trash and you save money in the long run as well.

...But I have NEVER gotten out more than I put into it, PERIOD...

Now I'll make a point:
I read in(Home Power magazine, I believe) lead acid batteries take about 30% more energy to charge them than they discharge when used.  This figure can be reduced if the battery is discharged slowly.
No wonder OU is so hard to achieve.

you can't cancel your subscription to the grid...

i think we know what he is trying to say.


i also agree to the voltage, current, charge confusion thing someone mentioned before. if you have a rising voltage it doesn't mean the battery is charging, charge is current x time, energy stored in a battery is the voltage x charge, if you have a rising voltage that's good but you have to measure the current over a period of time too when connecting it to a load, if the charge remained the same and the voltage was rising, then probably (!) the battery gained energy.
if you are working on this stuff it would not be wrong to get some electricity knowledge.
