HV Electrostatic Convert to Power

I am not that serious about this project.
I looked into what would happen if I did get serious.
That is why my 'whine'
I have other projects that have more priority.
True OU is farthest from my mind.
This is only a research project that can only go so far for me
and would not likely become a product in the near future.
I just mean that it could go much further if it were pursued
in advanced research maybe.
All my money I spend is all for fun only and I never will get obsessed
with all of it.

If you want it to be researched further then give us a crt diagram, video...instructions and we will all replicate and advance the technology if it is real, that is.

Here are two photos of the Horizontal ES Generator
(Van de Graaff) type. I built the entire for experimentation.
It has an Electronic static sensor that is fairly sensitive.
2" wide x 17" long latex belt.
Aluminum and PVC rollers, 1" diameter.
Adjustable Horizontal and Vertical DC Motor Mount
for mounting different motors.
Adjustable Horizontal/Vertical Brass Brush Mounts
with the Negative collector having a brass belt collector
to increase current. The output is around 4ua at several KV.
I made it small on purpose in order to constrain my experiments.
It will make a 3/4" spark @ about every 10 seconds.
A continuous spark of 1/8" ~ long, which is what I mostly use it for.
Thought I would post this while I make the new prototype power converter.

From what I see here you need a lot of power to create electrostatic high voltage for the Van de Graaff generator (I guess the 9 Volt battery seen on the photo). And you say you can only power a small LED to about half the brightness.

I made the same observation, when I tried to "transform" the electrostatic voltage down e.g. with air coil transformers (powered by discharge impulses of lightning). I could light a weak LED to about 1/3 of its brightness, however this energy is too weak to power even the weakest toy motor available in market Absolutely not efficient, to be honest. In its default state, electrostatic HV is the boss of "Underunity".

But don't let yourself be disturbed by this, as electrostatics offer much to learn and there are many variables to play with. Besides we all know: the Testatika worked with electrostatics, so there obviously is a way to gain real power from it.

No I use a standard power supply for the generator.
At highest motor speed it is 15Vdc @ ~120Ma
The 9v batt is for the electrostatic sensor.
The led being lit was not reproducible when I did it.
Not sure why it lit to begin with because at that time
too many variables were involved. Was a strange event.

Your experiment sounds very interesting.
It has been discovered that the Old TV tubes could store lightning power.
Also one can put them is series or parallel possibly.

I do not believe that it is the 'boss of under unity'
You yourself said the Testatika has maybe proven that.
Also the new Asymmetrical Electrostatic Generator produces AC power.
I believe we will find that Electrostatics has much more to offer
than ever believed possible. I hope that this will encourage more people
to research a very elusive science that is not that well understood.
