Ultracaps tested for excess energy

BTW, if it's not COP>1, then no need for alarm. If it is COP>1, then please quickly spread the word just to be certain this information is not squashed!

Paul  . Just for the sake of curiosity . If your Experiment show < 1 this means that using a steady current and volts  may not be the same as a frequency / pulsed DC i get from the CE junction , correct ? It may charge Different on the Jt junction than a power suppy ?
So what do the number tell you as of right now ?
IF you dare -Good or bad

You're right that pulses from the JT could cause different effects. It would be worth trying this with a JT circuit, logging the UC caps charge along with the power from the source battery.

At 90 minutes, total energy is 13.839 joules, UC voltage is 224.7mV

Broli,

If this method of slow charge & fast discharge is COP>1, then it might be difficult to get these UC's at a good price. Stefan started a cool thread on how to makes UC's. There's a guy at another forum that's been making DIY UC's comparable to the maxwell boostcaps.

BTW, I'm more interested in obvious COP>1. If by chance I post that it's COP>1, then please trust me it is obviously COP>1.

If it's COP>1, then I hope people spread the news by Internet & email & even live chat sites, but probably more importantly by phone. So if it's COP>1, then please call all of your OU friends. Web pages can be taken down at the drop of a hat. Doesn't hurt to be prepared. 

If COP>1 then of course this would not be the smoking gun since it's not a self-runner, but it wouldn't take much to make it a self-runner circuit.

At 123 minutes total energy is 25.432 joules and UC voltage is 301.7mV

BTW, for any newcomers, the data logger has two channels. It's logging the voltage directly across the UC (Ultracapacitor) and the current that flows directly into the UC.

The charge current has been a bit over 22mA.
