First electrical power output from a Pyramid

[Pirate88179]

I have been following this topic for a long time now and I just had a thought.  I am working over at the earth batteries topic and have achieved 1.8 vdc from just two electrodes placed in the earth.  Seems to be more than this device thus far.  But, what if I were to place a pyramid shape over my electrodes?  Would my volts go up?  I have a 5 foot spacing between electrodes at this point so the pyramid would be fairly large.  What do you guys think?  Worth trying?  There IS something to the pyramid shape with out any doubt.  Why or what is anyone's guess.  I have read a lot about this phenomenon and all says basically the same.  What this device is calling for speaks of galvanic action and so does the earth batteries but, as in this case as well, there is much more than just that going on.  Keep up all of your great efforts here.  If there is anything to this I know you guys will figure it out.  Merry Christmas to all.

If you get only AC voltage, especially 50 Hz (or 60 Hz in the US) then this is not a pyramid effect, but comes from the power lines. As i did some experiments (even without a converter) i got up to 450 mV only by connecting the multimeter's ground to the pyramid and leaving the other measurement cable lying around on the floor (the pyramid frame was not grounded). With a high-impedance digital multimeter, you can pick up quite high voltages just out of the air...

Thats something we don't really know for sure air or solid dielectric for the caps. I did back off on the screw and have set to 940pf right now. I used paper to keep plates flat. I will adjust it slowly each day and watch for changes. The only thing that I haven't used is 2mm graphic rods, but using pencil, I thought I would see a volt or so. I think if everyone trys something a little different we might get it. As for ground using my house ground. One thing I did notice if I bring my hand close to center cap the meter jumps up to 150mv or more, but did not touch it, so seems its picking up something. On DC I get nothing?

Sorry but I believe TT specifies an air dielectric.

Perhaps our German friends confirm this from sketch 3:
jeweil 1mm Plotten LUFT

Google translates as: Jeweil 1mm plotting - distance air

jeweils 1mm Plattenabstand 

in each case 1 mm of record distance  (plate to plate)

LUFT = Air between the plates.

not use dielectricums !

Hi all,

I wishe you and yours a merry christmess and maybe some pyramide light would be nice.

Hi MT,
I only measure DC and just for control I switch short to AC but nothing on AC just DC. I did not connect the pyramide frame to the ground jet. I will use a seperate ground rod outside any building to avoid influence.
after TT's explanation the voltage should start rising within a feww minutes you dont have to wait hours if nothing happen in the first 10 minutes.
greetings

Hi guys,
Sharing my results. Last night finished converter see pic. After injecting saltwater, rods against copper frame gives each about 0.3V (this morning left 0.31 right 0.34). Placing it inside and measuring rods against pyr frame gives less than 1mV DC. Tried various heights and positions. Waited 1 hour until battery in DVM died. This morning measured AC this gives about 0.1V TrueRMS 50Hz. I could not find relation to the pyramide frame. Placing converter outside gives actually more ~0.14V TrueRMS also 50Hz. Connecting pyr frame to the socket ground gives more voltage ~0.14AC TrueRMS (with converter inside) but voltage is much less stable with frequncies 350-400Hz.

Also in my case no drop of water came of the second hole. Seems all goes up vertical tubing. Probably surface bonding of water molecules prevents it to leak from small 2mm hole. Maybe his had bigger diameter.

I would not call it success less than 1mV basically nothing and measuring AC gives me clearly induced 50Hz socket frequency. I'll play with it further hope to find time to place gypsum boards if family allows on this special day.

greets,
