Trawoeer Power Pyramid Version 12 - Electrical output from a homemade pyramid

Ben,

Thanks for the correction on the small tubing size. Guess I just wrote it down wrong...

Sorry your initial wind didn't work out. Copper  sure isn't getting any cheaper.

I intend to post my progress on the pyramid build. I'm doing some  thing different this time around and so far things are going much smoother, though still time consuming...

Maybe an update tomorrow with pics

BTW - where did you get the 1 1/4" to 3/8" copper reducing adaptor??

Hi Duff,

Your right on the copper being expensive, should buy some CU stock.  I found some #16 solid TF 600VAC wire on Ebay, have a roll ordered, will take 3-4 days to get here probably from MO, USA.  What we really need is some SOLID 17.5KV insulated wire but if you can find it, it is worth a kings ransom for what we need internally to do the charging of the sand.  I'm going to put small silicon tubing around where the wire goes through the hole in the side to prevent galling of the wire next time.  Shesssss.  That #14 was stiff on a 3/8's tube.  If I'm lucky, that #16TF will hold up to about 2.5KV AC, I don't know how TT is doing his high voltage without breakdown.  Lots to look at there.

I made my adapters.  Used a 1 1/4 copper end cap, drilled and reamed to snug fit to outside of inner tube, then cut a 3/8 coupling in half and drilled out the slight ridge in the middle. I will solder it to the end cap tomorrow using a wooden dowel to hold it in alignment while I solder, then clean up and that will be it.  Too hot and rainy and I have to go outside to do that, wife would run me out of cond if I did large soldering with acid core in condo!   See two pictures.  I couldn't find any of those adapters that TT used here locally and I like to putter, so ordered CU from McMaster-Carr......Fast quick service.  Expensive though!  Anybody need a roll of #14Thhn cheap?

@k4zep looks like you did the same thing as me making your own reducer
from a pipe cap. and a 3/8 pipe joiner. 
To keep from damaging my wire feeding it through the hole:
I placed a small piece of a plastic straw in the hole, with a slit down the side to adjust it for the hole.

I've built several circuits including one using 400 volt capacitors. I am in the process of replicating the Danish developer device. My point is that it needs improving to get it to TUNE in to higher frequencies. Tesla hinted at tuning in to the "wheelwork of nature".
The reason I replied to this thread is that a lot of replicators didn't get anything with the pyramid device.  Not even a milliamp. P Kelly covers a pyramid patent in his free pdf book. I'm sure there's something in pyramids as they work on razor blades etc. It's just not for me.
Incidentally, I was using the Danish developers plate device to pick up radiant energy from  a usb plasma ball device. My meters were reading hardly any micro amps so I just left it for a couple of hours. I then carelessly touched the output wires and received a burn. I then powered a 20 watt unmodified CFL for a full 4 seconds at full brightness!  It taught me not to trust my meters. The Danish developer circuit can stand a lot of variations. I built one circuit from two cfl light bulb components for instance. So the circuit is a very useful one indeed. If you leave it on it's own it will even self charge the capacitors. I'm sure it will charge a super cap over a week or so with just a short aerial. The circuit can scavenge energy from just about anything.  Even the static from the front of a tv tube. But it is free energy and is perfect for experimenting with the  extraction  of energy from the earth as well as the air. I even used it to extract back emf from a pulsed electric motor. Hope this helps. Cheers.

@a.king21: that's fantastic -- so simple (like a joule thief project), almost everybody can give it a shot! I will try to get some thick aluminum wire (much cheaper than copper wires) and do a preliminary test soon. Thanks for sharing your encouraging results!

Interesting device, but need some test to prove is OU:
Put the pyramid into a Faraday cage and see the output, I'am skeptic here.
I hope he is not just collecting the ambient RF waves which is not FE and overunity of course...
