Hi, I hope this is in the right place, if not please direct me.
I just joined and we are trying to build the generator from the video series, when we went to get the supplies it became apparent that we were missing something. The video says we need 8 1 amp germanium diodes but did not specify voltage, can anyone steer me in the right direction?
Thanks!
You'd probably be better off with a Schottky diode like the a 1N5818.
it has a 1-amp 30-volt PIV (Peak inverse voltage) rating as example.
germanium diodes can have some special characteristics of course,
but I suspect they are seeking a lower voltage drop across the junction.
You can get four or five for a buck in small quantities,
so they are an inexpensive part to start testing with.
got a link to the vid so I can see the application requirement ?
Thanks!

I work with kids[troubled and/or with disabilities] and we were looking for something new to try and this seemed to fit the bill but I have little background in electronics, despite my father spending 20+ years at Motorola.
Wow, these are hilarious,
but I will reply tomorrow after I watch these.
Please understand, I quit at 2-1/2 minutes into the first vid.
I know this will require extensive corrections from just that much.
Never ever use scissors to cut leads on parts,
as that will nick a notch into the blades of the scissors.
Never ever solder like that...ever,
much less solder parts that do not have a good mechanical connection first (tightly twisted leads, etc.).
I'll be polite and informitive tomorrow,
because you seem serious enough though.
Thank you
It's been a while since I've soldered but that didn't look right and I have way too much respect for my tools to cut any metal with scissors.
Any assistance would be great!
I'm slightly busy at the moment with something,
but I can toss a few pieces out there for now.
attached below are four minimal-HTML files to see the
introduction and that three part RF-Rectifier project.
I stripped all the crap out, and enlarged the vids a bit.
Also,
while I was following the paper-trail to get the vids,
I found a few of other files, here are two PDF's to read.

When I get a chance I'll finish following the FW-Player RTMP trail...
But I'm sure you already know there are much higher quality parts available
for very little money that are better than what I saw in the beginning of the
project video #1 below (I only watched about 2-1/2 minutes before closing).
Lightning issues bother me too ! :o

That was just a quick copy/paste of what I saw
while trying to access just one vid from their page,
No need of all that crap...
Note, this website doesn't allow .HTM attachments,
rename them from .HTM.TXT to just .HTM to use...
Wow,
I just finished enduring both the intro,
and the three part "Project" nightmare !
For the love of pizza, and all that is holy,
KrustyOne, get your $49.97 back at once !
You have 60 days for that no questions asked return.
Just download the two PDF's listed in my above post.
I had four pages of corrections for the intro,
and over six pages of corrections by the end
on just the first video for the "Project" !
I just want to slap this guy for gosh sakes !
And don't even get me started on the lack of lightning safety !
You do have one thing right (correct...),
this is a fairly good project for beginners.
No unsafe voltages or currents in fair weather.
We are bathed in electromagnetic fields of a vastly wide range of frequencies daily
do to massive power line infrastructures and way to many communication's towers.
From that loud hum when you touch a guitar amplifier input
because even your body makes a fair antenna to collect 60-CPS,
to the taxi and police splashing over on your stereo occasionally.
It is there to harvest, but the array to do that correctly is huge.
You can charge a phone, eventually even a battery,
but not really do to much more than that with this.
As long as storing for a long time, to do a little job is OK.
Others, take a glance at these pics below,
if you can't endure the vids I linked above.
This $49.97 "Project" is more shameful than "MagnaFakester" !
Thank you, I will return this.
Can you suggest a similar project that would be worth the effort?
Yes, send me an email I can send stuff to in an IM/PM.
My wife is majorly disabled too, Im glad to help with projects for them,
disregard the Schottky diode recommendation in the above post,
I took a guess on them wanting a lower junction drop voltage.
Good quality detector diodes,
and caps with high quality dialectric's are what's needed here.
For others, there is a reason why two ceramic caps are in series,
don't overlook that and just use one, it is the reason this resonates
and feeds the archaic charge pump arrangements used here.
Two caps in series have been observed to produce odd phenomena...
I'll forward info as email attachments instead,
rather than loading Stefans server up with stuff.
Thanks for bringing this scoundral to all of our attentions too.
I didn't have any schematic utilities on the Win-ME laptop
I was on at that moment, so I gave a freebee by Rimu a try.
http://www.hutson.co.nz/rimu.htm
It is free with a 100-pin limit, and runs on a 9x kernel OS just fine.
There are many out there though, here just one list.

Here is what those "Project" pictures look like in schematic form:
Great, I replied to your PM with my email.
Thanks!
I can't believe I just wasted 30min - more probably, those damn videos need to be continuously restarted manually, which seems intentional - watching one of the most tedious videos imaginable, just to see some idiot charge a mobile-phone from a battery/inverter combo!
I need alcohol after that..........
Apologies Sprocket, If you were here I give you a drink.
The neck of that guy though, that 30min video shows absolutely nothing, neither does it make any OU claims - however it's crafted in such a way that newbies to this stuff are meant to infer that that shitty little circuit/battery setup is practical.
There's a thread here on OU about another guy pulling a similar stunt, but asking much more deneros - all of this stuff has been 'made available' via a torrent, just do a search. Many of the 'plans' are quite comprehensive and although his claims are exaggerated, some may work to an extent. But all of this stuff is just pulled from patents etc. anyway, so is freely available to anyone that takes the time to search for it. Same goes for what the 30min video guy shows, and odds are that also applies to what he's selling. Here's a decent site that lists many of the patents that the ptb's don't want you to know about.

I hope you believe at least what John Bedini did say:
"There is NO free electricity produced in these systems, or any other system that I know of. I have stated this repeatedly. The only thing these systems produce are a series of “high voltage spikes†that have no current associated with them. Voltage without current is the nature of Radiant Energy. This is what Tesla said. I call this “reactive power†because it does not represent voltage and current simultaneously, that could be measured as WATTS. This Radiant Reactive power WILL charge batteries, light lightâ€'bulbs and other things but it DOES NOT meter as REAL POWER. This is why your math is useless !
So please, quit quoting your theories and analyses to me. My lightâ€'bulbs are on. Are yours ? You are welcome to believe in your theory, but I KNOW that Tesla was right about the nature of electricity, and how to successfully tap its useful fractions. If you would just build the motor the way I have said, you could begin to learn about this too.
Beyond this, I am done CHATTING with you. Leave the people alone who are trying to learn this. Your ignorant comments are of no use. That’s as nice as I can be about it."

Cheers ?
Really ?!
Your terrible attitude is not welcome here,
there are no theories being posted here,
certainly NOT specifically to you as you indicated !
And this is also NOT about a Bedini motor at all anyway !
Are you sure your lights are on ?
I think you mis-posted this in the wrong thread myself.
I think you meant to post it here instead,
as that is where your next post landed:
http://www.overunity.com/index.php?topic=10528.msg279250#msg279250
These people deserve considerably more respect,
and I have done nothing but try to help them out.
What have you done ?
