Yes the sphere is hollow and the green piece is a plastic insulator.  I will place a resistor at the point you suggested and try to get a voltage reading.

Vince, Ok thx for confirming.
also are the coils wound CCW and CW as shown in Tao's original pic?

Did you try the influence of an external magnetic field, eg a Neo near by, either stationary or moving, to possibly get some oscillations going?

In some other devices it appears that there is a pm magnet required to get them going.

Maybe someone who has a clear understanding on the principles of operation and performance parameters can shed some light on how this works?

Thanks

Where are your secondary coils?  This device will not produce a phase change.

The coils are wound exactly as the rendition shows on the first post of this thread.  The primary winding is under the black one you see in the picture.  It is attached to the copper rod as the diagram shows and the outer coil is attached to the copper sphere.  I have tried resistors and led's on the load connection but I still get nothing.  I have even attached about 100 feet of coaxial cable to the sphere with hopes of  enhancing it's presence in the aether but I have seen no signs of any power whatsoever. I even tried leaving the load connections attached to various capacitors overnight to see if they would charge . NOTHING!

Yes I understand this.  You have a collector.  It looks nice.  Where is the amp (coil)?

You are missing almost a mile of wire according to these pics.

Edit: Not to be vague but according to Tesla's specifications this device should tune to 185,000 miles or there abouts.
