Earth Electrical Energy Datalogging Experiments

[greginthewoods]

Thanks to Electricme and Pirate for an OU forum thread that discusses practical Earthbatteries (actually earth cells). There is a lot of misunderstanding, false information, withheld information, and potential improvement.

I see three categories of sticking electrodes into the earth. I see differing opinions about materials, placement, and mass based upon poorly performed empirical performance. I have a lot of datalogged files, graphs, and the capability to replicate and datalog. Let’s work together and resolve this.

I'm getting caught up in this new thread and will post later this week. I hope we can work together to resolve the inconsistencies.

@Pirate
When you take your waveforms is your eb connected with anything else?
The strange waveform is why I ask.

No, nothing else at all.  Just directly from the EB electrodes via a 20 ft. extension cord and my probes go into the other end of the cord in the house.  (this way I could leave the scope indoors) No JT or supercaps....nothing else.  If you could help shed some light on these waveforms, it would be great.  Thanks.


@ Greg:

Welcome and I am glad you can join us here.  I am sure your input will be very helpful.  Have you had a look at the Kapandze topic yet?  I hope our research and experiments here will help make it possible to replicate his device.

@altrez,

@all

It is true that an earth battery is nothing new. With that being said what I find odd is the fact that they are not in wide spread use. Even if this a pure Voltaic effect it has some serious potential.

I can see someone running a home from nothing but earth battery's. Now true it might take a few 100 earth battery's to run a home but still once the work is done it should last for 20 years with some maintenance.

I plan to go to lowes and buy 12 earth battery's connect them in series and run a JT. Once that is done I can change store bought battery's. And then I can use those battery's to run a small inverter.

So you see if i simply had 350 watts of free earth power running at its max efficiency. i could run my Laptop 65watts my tv 150 watts and lamp 75 watts all from the earth.

Plus run my custom JT circuits for lighting all over the house. I only need 12 volts and 300 mAs to make that all happen

So 24 pieces of 8 foot long metal if I am correct should give me that much power.

I think I know what you are about with your EB idea.
I came across a web site and downloaded and printed some extremely interresting information, how to make the Earth Battery and a Capacitor plate battery.
I will do another search for it shortly and post the http address, it made seance to me, its almost a back to front EB, electrodes wise, but it seems to be able to put out voltage and current.
It needs more investigation in my humble opinion, but if it works as is stated, then this might be the one.

Im thinking mainly dc. The flow may slowly build charge through the earth then release. There may even be overlapping charges. If there is bemf then you might pick up an ac type waveform.

If you parallel,the amps should increase and the voltage will stay the same.

This is right, 100%
