Quantum Energy Generator (QEG) Open Sourced (by HopeGirl)

Now they are blaing it on the wrong caps and not yet tuned.

Here they show 35 % efficiency...

Well, if they tune it up, I still believe, that they don´t get this above 80 % efficiency...

Mr. Jalapeno does not sound very much like an independent evaluator to me.  He speaks very much as an apologist.  The bottom line is that these machines do not do what WITTS and FTW claim:  resonance or no resonance.

"if... fails"?  The claim it to already have produced over unity.

Paramatric generators are not new.  If I start a campaign in 2014 to use a wire to communicate 2 computers using a clock, data lines would you say its not a waste of time for experimenters out of ignorance to see if such a task can be accomplished?  Both serial communication and paramatric generators are history and in use.  The claim it to already have produced over unity.

They might claim it, but they are .... well.... let's just say that their claim is unsupported by evidence or data, and they fully know it. On this side of the Red River, we have a descriptive term for that set of circumstances.

Those pictures are very revealing. The portable Hantek scope is indicating many kV in the yellow channel, working through that impressively phallic High Voltage Probe..... and the other channel is indicating some few milliVolts. Pickup? Noise? Current in a CSR? Voltage in their improperly connected Current Transformer? Who knows.... perhaps the Shadow knows.
Now consider the construction of that HV probe. It is made that way for a really good reason. Now look around that workbench. You see all the pretty colored clipleads, the scattered wiring, the thin insulation, the absurd air-core coil? You see all the high-voltage capacitors connected in a string? You see the safety bleeder resistors.... no, wait.... you _don't_ see the safety bleeders, or crowd control, or good HV layout and operator discipline....


Can anyone tell me the actual value or approximate range of the capacitors that their build allegedly requires? I have a large box of actual HV capacitors, strontium titanate dielectric, each one 400 pF at 30 kV, they are commonly referred to as "doorknob" caps.

High voltage current monitoring ala QEGgers:

Them folks gonna find out one day just what 28 kV and a bunch of charged up capacitors can rilly do. They gwine think they God hissef done reached out and smote them.

Those little silver microwave capacitors in all likelihood are polyester.  They were designed for 50Hz/60Hz use.  The have significant ESR compared to polypropylene or air core door knob caps designed for HF use,  Above 50Hz/60Hz the microwave caps can heat up to much, and perhaps fail during a long run.  On the other hand, they usually have an internal 10meg bleeder resistor.

Miles,
