Dr Ronald Stiffler SEC technology

[antimony]

I connected an earth ground to the negative of a SEC and it lit up 9 white LEDs dimly, and i just had to ask you guys if this is something unusual, or whatever?

Maybe this is totally normal, but I was just blown away as this is totally new to me.

Here is a link to a short video.

Could this be the same as in one of Stifflers own videos where he was exciting one of his antenna coils from ground, in a Aluminium pan?

If so, did the Al-pan aCT as an antenna of sorts in that case?

I am going to see if I can find a link to that video.
It is on his youtube channel.

Do anybody have any information on the parasitic plate that Stiffler is using ?

I have tried to make my own with Al-tape on each side of the PCB that i am using as a insulator.

Stiffler is using Tin (Sb) and Copper with his plate, but I didnt have any Tin sheet or Cu so i went with Aluminium.

I notice that there is an increase in both brightness in the Leds and the mA draw, but i want to explore it futher, becouse Stiffler seemed to put emphasis on its importance for some applications, like heat for example.

Thanks.

 Dr.Stiffler shared a new Vid and Schematic
thx to user Microvolt at Aaron's forum and to Dr.Stiffler for having the schematic posted there.

That's so good to see him posting vids again.
I knew he'd not been well, but nothing about what the problems were...am certainly wishing him many good years ahead.

Will drag out my old SEC copies, built 4 or 5 back in the day.
Yes, Panacea were quite wonderful at the time, with lots of useful knowledge and experiments.
It's doubtful that an SEC 18 can be built on a breadboard, but can be made to work using the right components and soldered up on veroboard with care and in similar placements.
Pigtail length of the L3 is important and all sorts of other elements are true that Doc Stiffler always said about. Best success of an easy to make L3 was ~20AWG wound on top of an empty solder tube. L1 and L2 can be made from 1000uH axial inductors, but that will impact output, rather than a wound form. 2N2222A's seem to be best suited as the transistor, but others will work. Lots of experimentation room left in the circuit. 

Edit: found a few and wound an L3 with 26/28AWG, 90 turns:

Here we go, one of them is running now, with that L3 made earlier.
It's sat on a ceramic bathroom tile, that has 4 felt feet under it...Doctor Stiffler always used to raise the circuits out of the way of any metal or other grounding.
This one was made about, hmm 6 years ago or somewhere and is now running on a 5V USB wall adapter.
It needs a ground plane to run, in this case some transformer laminations (to the left of the circuit), connected to the variable capacitor.
A click with a BBQ lighter fires it up, then the small variable capacitor tunes it.
It's pretty poor for output, but at least runs.

The blue LED's are on AV plugs to one of the ends of ferrite chokes, salvaged from old PC monitors. They're just sat near the L3 and are running wirelessly.


Update: a new L3 has been wound. 80 turns of ~20AWG.
The output is much better, an LED on an AV plug is connected to the old L3 in the pic.
Am using a whittled matchstick to tune and even that's not the best...get anything metal or the human body near these circuits and the tuning shifts.
