ENERGY AMPLIFICATION

[Farmhand]

Has anyone replicated Lasersabre's "self looper" and had it run with at least a constant charge on the cap ?

To me it looks like the LED's are lit by transformer action or by the coil discharge or both, the secondary powers the led's with energy  supplied by the cap. Where does electrostatics come into it ?

Read pages around page 335 and read the explanation on this diagram. It speaks about electrostatic induction and how this can be accomplished by an open end primary and asymmetrical topology between primary and secondary. (Using as generator a HV tesla coil )

Any ideas on burning the flywheel diode?

This arrangement has the secondary bottom connected to the primary kinda like the first drawing, and the arrangement is not connected to anything, it takes in energy and lights the LED. The Tesla coil is nearby though. What is this then? Check the date.  No capacitors no connections to anything else.

This video should serve as a caution for others to wonder about low powered devices appearing to be OU.

Electrons jiggling slowly down a conductor in the opposite direction to the charge flow can be considered to be "current".  but so can the flow of anything be considered current. However the charge flows the other way and much faster (conventional current), the electron is simply a carrier of charge, the charge does the work and it flows the other way.

In reality none of it matters to a bulb connected across a battery, the potential will force charge to flow from positive to negative and the electrons will jiggle the other way. The bulb will light no matter what we say.

But if you put a diode in the circuit with the cathode towards the battery positive the bulb will not light. Hence charge flows from positive to negative, the electrons simply react to the charge flow caused by the potential applied.

Your electron current/jiggle will not light the bulb. Because the electrons will not do anything unless the charge flows from positive to negative.

There is not even any need to label the poles of a battery or DC supply "positive" and "negative". We only need label one the more positive or the other the more negative.

In reality to label the less positive pole negative it should be at a potential below 0 v, but there is no zero reference to a battery except the negative terminal, the negative terminal of a battery should be labeled 0 v. or something.

Very nice description, and your right it doesnt really matter to a resistive load but it does matter to the inductor.

Mags
The boost converter and buck converter are well known and used in the electronics industry one boost voltage at the expense of amperage and the other boost amperage at the expense of voltage.

I have my own idea's about how they work and show them in my diagrams.
The sims are set up in the conventional view if you go to options and uncheck conventional view the sim will run in electron flow view.

I dont think any circuit by itself will go ou, it always pulls from the battery, you may boost voltage or amperage or both but you are always pulling from the bat.

We have to have a source other than the battery, whether it be radiation from radioisotopes or another form.

I believe ionization is the key, an ionization circuit builds a neg ion cloud around the pos electrode and a pos ion cloud around the neg electrode.
What I think happens in an ionization circuit, the electrodes cause a stress on the aether (the air) pulling the molecules apart into pos and neg particles, these particles can be collected using a magnetic field.

Little side bar here. It looks like Larskro is using a zener in his circuit posted at this link (see bottom of schematic):
http://www.overunity.com/14665/selfcharging-cap-circuit-from-larskro-fake-or-real/msg404524/#msg404524
Can anyone tell me what purpose that serves?  I'm wondering if it might shed light on why Teets chose a zener.
It appears that Larskro is looping back the inductive kickback from the collapsing mag field around the reed switch.
Does the zener help with this (and why/how)?
