Building DS Plasma Globe

Ok, This is the third try at this post.
errors galore...

What I have done is defined the correct way to extract the energy from a capacitor. meaning; This video shows how I found the correct method. where to apply the grounded spark gap and what the results will be using either one or the other to achieve your desired results.

I realize others may know this, but from what I can tell it is not observed as a rule.

I can make a loud snapping spark or a silent spark that combines the elements of the block wall. The dipole, etc.

This silent spark hits the grounding rod like a pendulum of a bell and the capacitor sends this violent hammering action into the isolation transformer. This same pounding can be heard coming from the IT as well. Also this physical impulse can be felt on the outside of the capacitor."it feels like a rapid outward expansion of the housing of the capacitor".

here is the video and some pics of the circuit in use.

Ok,
What I did next is double the NTE 124's coming from the Crown and inserted the three big capacitors i used in my earlier charge testings. This is a "paralell circuit".
These are the results;
I am able to make and automatic discharge to, light "momentarily" a normal incandescent light.
Pretty sure the silent spark is magnetic not electric.

These results are were obtained by first setting a preliminary charge in the 600 V .7 uF cap then moving the IT 240 V line to the second Capacitor bank. When the second set should reach an equilibrium and then imbalance with the first cap, the first cap will discharge Silently and that will induce the second bank to discharge into the IT causing the light to flash again with a silent spark.
Next I positioned a third cap between the second , "added diodes/circuit" into the first circuit discharge and spark gap position. With this setup I will get an automatic discharge through the system as before (BUT) here is a problem, the silent spark (just one) explodes part of the spark gap creating a dead short. ((( this dead short is like a needle, it can hardly be seen. It is as if the metal or the spark plug electrode has violently produced a thread of material to bond these two materials)))

The signal coming from the plasma globe is now larger than the highest fully visible setting on the scope at maximum. so I am measuring at the output side of the IT.

While looking for some videos at Boarderland I found this three page A.

It describes many of Tesla's findings about radiant energy, Either, and this being produced by the disruptive discharges.

Therein I found the similarities DS spoke about, what my experiments have shown with the silent spark having much more power. Also that NT was able to separate the magnetic from the electrostatic, and other concerns about these methods.

I've been out of town working, Truck driving and had lots of time to think.

I have been able to simulate the wave forms that look like the Parametric oscillations that JLNauden had accomplished.

Saying that, the concept I have about what is happening is; When the spark jumps upon cap discharge, the multiplying effect is caused by cap charging. starting small then building to max. depending upon spark length. This would suggest the amplification is not overunity simply resistance to assimilate the complete charge to maximum at the first impulse.

These building blocks are what I am shooting at for the time being. As this process continues I am visualizing the reality of seeing the freq. capturing.  As everyone can see with the prior pictures of the signal, the freq is so complex and quick that it is virtually impossible to measure this without a very high speed transmission of this signal.
   Can someone tell me if Oscilloscope speed is crucial at this point? If so I will accommodate the suggestion.

I am going to test and retest the speed of the signal until I get the correct capacitors size. Driving the caps to break  within the spark gap at the first impulse will establish the correct freq.  I believe I should be able to discharge a cap at the highest potential + and the highest potential - . If this is correct.  I should be able to isolate the discharging, which would capture the block wall for further manipulation.

At that point I will be able to set up the LC tank to a resonant attitude.

I ordered a signal generator 1 Hz to 1 MHz and a variable DC power supply 0-18 V and 0-40 A
These should advance my understandings and capabilities of testing.

Good luck

You people are absolutely awesome!

I came to a Light bulb moment today, LOL and gulping my way through this facet.
OK as anyone who has plugged in a multimeter into their globe and read an excess of 500 volts would have grasped in the dark as well as I am.

If Don is correct about flipping the block wall and learning to manipulate the magnetic resonance rabbit. this is a rigorous protocol of understandings.

Reading NT's patents, ED's videos and grazing the annals of others work regarding magnetic resonance. I am seriously considering just where this resonance starts accumulating.

I feel I must reproduce ED's Longitudinal test, to see how these magnetic values are amplified (Obvious Start),
Then add this knowledge to the DS circuit.
