What's up with that? No delivery?!! I have wine sent to me all the time. Must be a Canadian thing.

I did come up with something that I may contribute to the cause. I design printed circuit boards and have access to extremely inexpensive fabrication. If you ever need layout done from your schematic, it's on the house. It would be kinda cool to say someday, "Hey I helped with Thanes Perepiteia."

The tragic consequences of not being able to mail beer (legally).

Remember the cute woman looking into the fridge (for a beer), that you saw on this thread a number of pages back?
Because a guy can't mail beer to his friends,  extra beer began building up in the fridge.
Yes, she drank that extra beer... and went from "Tomb Raider"  to "Fridge Raider".

That's very interesting. I did the math, and it's in agreement with the input meter -->

First stage: The input meter shows 10.9V, 0.66A, 0.42 PF = 3.0 (3.02) watts, which is in agreement with the 3W reported by the input meter.

Second stage: The input meter shows 10.9V, 0.34A, 0.54 PF = 2.0 (2.00) watts, which is in agreement with the 2W reported by the input meter.

Third stage: The input meter shows 9.9V, 0.14A, 0.70 PF = 1.0 (0.970) watts, which is in agreement with the 1W reported by the input meter.

I have no idea if the frequency is within the meters range, but the meters are showing more output than input, period.

I hope Thane Heins keeps up the good work, regardless of the outcome. There's no shame in trying. Looks like he may be on to something.

Thane Heins, I hope you don't mind that I added your above video to my Major Accomplishments Award list -->
http://greenselfreliantenergy.com/forum/index.php?board=39.0

I think that video of yours is fascinating! Maybe you'll get a Nobel prize one day. 

For those who make it to the "Confirmed" list should get an award. What should that award be?

Regards,
PL
