@akashh:

Great find!  This theory makes a lot of sense to me as well. It would explain a lot of things. I am going to start reading up on induction.

@Bruce:

Forgive my ignorance but does the TPU (What exactly does TPU stand for? I have never seen that posted) work by induction?  If so, I believe you are at the right place here. And again, if so, maybe you can educate us on the basics of the TPU theory?  I have followed some of the TPU topics with great fascination but little understanding.

@ George:

Nice experiment!  All of this is telling us something. I think this theory might be why the cells do not appear to enjoy being wired in series.  Now if we use inductive coils, as Stubblefield appeared to use, I'll be they can be wired in series for as much energy as you want. This just gets better and better.

Bill when you get a chance could you tell us how long a 30 second charge on your capicator lasts for the led.. Meaning hook it to the carbon and mg and just let it sit for 30 seconds then see how long that will run your led .. Im trying to figure out the time differential of charge to last time off the earth battery not a double a or any thing like that. By finding this information it will let us build something to draw off some power and have the cap recharging.  Wether we build the mini tpu for this purpose a battery charger or just the camera flash circuit. As well a second idea ... if i were to use a small spark gap powered by dc motor ... and put that with a small primary coil.  Could i make some hf low voltage dc that could be stepped up tesla style meaning a nice secondary to capture the impulses.. ... That would seem to be an unlimited source of power....  All the spark gap does is set the timing for the pulsed dc if anyone is unfamiliar. Mr amos being the EE, Do you think this would be an good route to go?

Hi All - I found a link with some guy's theory that is fantastic: http://www.geocities.com/terella1/

Basically he took Faraday's paradox and thought about it - there are some strange unexplainable things that happen with a Faraday disc.  He then does a couple of other experiments and concludes from that something interesting: A magnetic field CANNOT BE ROTATED ON ITS POLAR AXIS.

Which means that although the earth is rotating, the magnetic field is not!  Therefore, telluric currents are nothing other than the current induced by the earth rotating around it's stationary polar magnetic axis!!  This bring a whole new light to the phenomena and may help us in understanding how to use it.  I'm gonna spend some serious time thinking about it.

G'day all,

This agrees with my findings on the Meyer apparatus.

"When you really look at it Meyer?s device looks very much like a Faraday disk except it is stationary.

Maybe in Meyer?s device the earth does the spinning for you.

You see, when you align the device north ? south, as you must, the earth?s spin is perpendicular to the magnetic flux and in line with the ?channel?, just like a Faraday disk spinning with the magnet!"

Hans,
I've been thinking for some time already and I want to build it.  However I hate to read patents.

hey guys i did only a moments of experimenting but i have some results

i live north of atlanta GA, here my amprobe is sensitive enough to find that there is a small electrical charge in the air! not sure why thats happening since i thought it was a fluke and added a new battery it still doing it so i ran some base tests, yep a 9 volt battery is 9 volts! ok so i measured the copper and steel rods i aquired for free, (well thats just a guess of the metals)  i accidentally put them in the ground at a reverse polarity + is south, they are only 2 inches deep and not properly aligned, roughly north south. i am getting .6 volt and no amps. i checked and my new amprobe meter does read amps so i will try to rig a more proper setup later when its not raining. also for giggles i connected the 200 watt cap to it, no sparks so im guessing its not charged, but i will sacrifice my old amp meter to see the voltage later :-p   i have not checked for AC current yet. but im interested to hear if a bridge rectifier makes a difference on the battery  

i have not finished the tesla coil yet to test on the ground battery but will keep you posted on new results.

on a side note, i would say when we get something substantial, we should fax copies to the media and post it on various parts of the net! no doubt this over unity webside will want to make it front page news as well.  i like the idea of living without having to work from an invention but electricity should be free, or almost free at the very least. thats my idea about it.
