Wow, can I ask for your source of the mag. rod?  Also, how much?  I have not been successful in finding a company that would sell me just one.  Thank you and, good luck!  That rod with the carbon will give you great mA's I am sure.

       I got on ebay apparently "charles" sales them for 42 bucks which makes sense ,is more expensive to buy piece by piece at walmart, I didnt tell why it was for so hopefully prices stays reasonable, yes companies are thoroughly complicated I hate that, Im quite sure I will get though ma and voltage and I will try longer distances with wire , also going for earth battery I think is cheaper and more practical better technology in it, Sorrry to report that the lead acid car battery died with a 12 volt light bulb the rods were not able to sustain the voltage as claimed by others conection and all replicated. Still trying to get feedback on how to get the Joule to work at this voltage amp with my rods

Have a good one

Heyas:), a little bit off topic, i have been experimenting with telluric currents for a few years on and off, I have 12 high bright leds running, sometimes during the day they go dim for 10 min spells, otherwise there quite bright, best time is around 10.00pm to 5.00am.
the conductors consist of 1 copper pipe at one end of my section, a 3 inch galvanized pipe (in a meter) 50 foot away, a 2 inch galvanized pipe (in a meter) 40 foot away, and finally a 1 inch galvanized pipe also dig in a meter (35 feet away).
the copper pipe i use to reference the respective pipe voltages, these are coupled to a torroid transformer i wound.
on the scope is not much to look at, just a mess of AC signals combined....no radio/transmitter stations nearby :)
the primary on the torroid is 200t tapped from 80 to 200 every 20 turns and single wound
the secondary is bifilar wound 700t, then taken to rectification
torriod size is 80mm dia and 50mm hole.
the taps on the primary are quite necessary to implement as at different times a given pole will yield better results from a different tap.
you can also couple 4-5 ground stakes into various taps to increase the current slightly,
the output voltage varies considerably between 3 and 14v on the secondary, under load (12 leds) usually 2v approx.
i have wound another torroid slighty different, and can combine the 2 rectified secondarys in series, to up the stagnant voltage to avg 20v
anyway enough babble:)
good to see other experimenters doing well here & have enjoyed reading the entire thread
best regards

@ all

I am running TWO Jt's from a simple earth battery of copper pipe and galvanized  pipe 11 inches apart . Have been lighting white leds from both of the jt's now for several months . I have a small electrolytic capacitor in parallel with with the earth battery . She light all the time but when it rains the output drops. I am now in the process of experimenting with  one Magnesium rod and one carbon rod . reports are that 4.2 volts are attained at 20 foot apart . You want to rectify this output with a Bridge to use the ac mixed up in the output . The Goal is to light 1000 leds . Testing is also  being done with 2 volt lead acid batteries and Very Large Super caps as a storage Medium  and with control Electronics to only light the Leds at night .  Furthermore the results once obtained will more than likely be published in some Major Magazines like scientific American  or Green living . etc..
Using a Jt Will be a Viable Source of usable voltage/power from an earth battery . test are being done with the Lay lines Verse out of them . Output is higher on a ley line and true magnetic NS . I await permission to post visual results of  Graphs made by Very Expensive Test Equipment bought for The study of this Earth battery and magnetic Flux ..These are real time minute by minute Electronic Measurements  comparing two earth batteries 15 foot apart , one in the Magnetic Ley line the other not .
EDIT: ok here is the most current  measurements . thanks to  Greg at Alternative Systems  in the Black hills who is supplying me with the data and parts for this Major Project ,soon to be a reality and a viable Alternative power source Using Gods Green Earth and non polluting Rods .  Totally ECO friendly

@ All
here is the NEW Earth battery and Parts  Sent to me By Greg  at Alternative Systems for EarthHaven
.for me to Obtain the results and Goal : theses are Nice Magnesium and carbon rods with leads and Various Electronics for the control and a Know Value of torroids . Nice~~ Look at the super cap and Small Lead acid Battery .Notice on the Graph above that two identical earth batteries except one is in the ley lines and has higher output !!! Both cells are magnetic north . I am setting up mine next week  and tuning My special Jt to run at least 500 leds (thats lall i have ) .. the control electronics will consist of a very small solar panel to shut down the circuit to the leds in the day and also provide a regulated voltage to help boost the output of the earthbattery . haven't decided yet to do that . will see how long the cap and or battery charge with just the EB .The Consideration was done to not use cadnium cells due to hazzardus materials that might be released from them them the earth . We want TOTAL ECO FRIENDLY with NO CONTAMINATION . All the materials have been selected to insure no pollution .   I have designed My own circuit to shut down the leds and boost the Eb with just a Tiny Solarpanel 5 volts 80 ma CIS and therefor no current will be used from the EB to power the Control Electronics . .
