Selfrunning cold electricity circuit from Dr.Stiffler

[amigo]

    5 - When using the LEDs in disposition such as the one Amigo described (many AV plugs) or as I was using (many in series then
        invert them and many more in series and on each section put some in parallel), inserting a ground or antenna had interesting
        effects such as increasing the output current and brightness or depending where connected in the LEDs sections decrease
        brightness and output current.

Just a small correction here.

hoptoad was the one who first described this specific setup (multi AV chain), I have just repeated it and drew a sample circuit for confirmation.

Thanks.

Oh, and all the best with the new job. Remember it pays the bills to buy new toys

@ Amigo
Thanks mate. I was doing "piece work" contracts, but it gets a little nerve wracking not knowing when your next job will come. The Job I just scored is a full time store person job. It's not the greatest pay, but conditions seem pretty good, the people seem really nice, and at least I know I can pay my bills!.

Cheers All! From the Toad who Hops

I just inform you that I am success with Tesla's greatest work 'wheelwork of nature' and 'cosmic ray energy'.
I don't know that this Dr. Stiffler circuit work (or is just good HF transformer), but now I know that this Tesla's system is 'in my hand'.
You can found my last thoughts on my page (in bottom part):

It is real source of energy!
For now it is just embryo, and only first step, but I think it is step to right direction.

@hoptoad
Great, so it seems that using the multi-AV chains does not deplete the source as fast as when connecting LEDs in series, and I would assume that is because we are staying within the open circuit topology with single wire transmission.

I now have two test setups, one on a board with metal bottom and one without so that the effects can be compared. I also got the cores today (20 of them to be exact) so I can actually come closer to using exactly the same setup as Dr.Stiffler does.

@ Amigo
It would be great if you could reproduce as close as possible, Stifflers original idea of a parasitically coupled Primary, as well as the Secondary. That is, both coils only connected at one end.

We tend to only think of the atmosphere in terms of how it impedes or depletes our signals. It allows capacitive leakage, but it is not strictly a "Capacitor", it allows inductive leakage, but it is not inherently "Inductive" and it has resistance which varies according to a range of explainable factors. Sounds like a battery to me. An "Accumulator" that is! We really need to appreciate fully, that we are living in a medium which is at one polarity of a giant DC Battery.

It may well be possible, as many accounts of Teslas works have hinted, that the correct frequency and type of radiated energy, will "tickle" the DC Battery, that is made up of the earth and the ionosphere, to react and interwine in such a way as to release usable energy from the atmospere in quantities excessive to the input signal.

This is not O/U. It is "tapping" an energy source which we know exists! Tesla talked about it, and was reputed to have achieved it. Like a sailboat tapping the wind, he apparantly was able to use a "small" discharge in the magnitude of a Megawatts, to create a reactive local lightning strike in the order of GigaWatts. How much is true and how much is myth is the stuff of history. But we'll only know, if we seek to know!

So far, I have not come across a circuit capable of even "hinting" at how this signal might be generated, especially on small usuable and SAFE scales!  Until now! These circuits are simple but still a little mystifying?  I am still skeptical, very skeptical, about any "tapping" of the energy around us going on, but I want to be proved wrong! LOL! 

We in the present, take RF for granted. High frequencies are used every day that Tesla could only dream about in his day. And he would have dreamed BIG dreams, no doubt, if he had access to todays semiconductors. So the spectrum of 1-2 megahertz, which was an achievement in his day with the technology available to him, is flippantly disregarded today as nothing more than part of standard RF band-width. But nature has her own secret bandwidths, and more importantly, harmonics within those bandwidths. Tesla knew this, we need to re-know this.

Amigo, you're already way ahead of me with components and hands on experimenting with this circuit. It would be great if you could stick with Stifflers original ideas, get it perfected, then use it as comparison device to do a number of practical configuration changes. Direct comparison of working circuits in real time is a very intuitive way to get to "know" your circuit, and can quickly reveal the reality or illusion behind assumptions about its mode of operation.

Good Luck Amigo - 20 Cores, Now That's Commitment to the Cause! 
Cheers

I have built a working circuit using a 2SC3943 TO220 transistor. I'm driving 20 yellow LED's at present very brightly using the Dr. Stiffler recomended ferrite coil. My circuit consumes 120mA. Like others, I have found that a small magnet is a useful tool for fine tuning the oscillator.

As has been correctly reported earlier LED's need very little current to appear bright at the RF frequencies we are using here. The circuit will probably prove to be quite inneficient at around 50% typically like the Bedini SG energisers. However, in terms of actual work done, the available output energy is probably remarkably efficient, again like the Bedini SG energiser is for charging batteries. I have been very open to the idea that energy is being 'captured' from the environnment but when this type of oscillatory LCR system is viewed as a whole, the conversion from low voltage sources to high voltage precludes very high overall system efficiencies from being achieved. If we could capture high voltage energy direct from the environment, and harness this to light our LED's and charge our batteries, then real progress could be made. Tesla created some very impressive displays using HV but how much do we know about the levels of power he used to convert low voltage to high voltage and therefore his system efficiencies.
