The Tesla Project

@ allcanadian

Do you use a apark-gap like Tesla did it in some of his projects ?

In "A pratical guido to "Free Energy" Devices" they mention, that the key to OU is a disruptive discharge...

I thought it was necessary to know what Im dealing with and in that respect I have built Bill Beatys rediculously sensitive charge detector, I have tied an opto-isolator to my mosfet with an open base wire, the opto feeds an LED for visual reference and feeds an opamp to convert the signal for a frequency generator and interface with my computer microphone. This signal can then be used in a spectrum analyser program to measure electrostatic pulses and only electrostatic pulses as magnetic fields and EM have no effect on the open base of the mosfet. I can detect a person dragging there feet on the carpet 3 feet away! now thats cool. I still need to mount the circuit in a metal insulated case to reduce all interference then I can post some pictures.

I use a disruptive discharge from an inductor but have not used spark gaps persay, the arcing contacts of my relay could however act as a spark gap, once resonance is acieved this arcing should stop which is more effecient.

electrostatic induction! thats a good word. Ill have to use that more often,

@AhuraMazda

Your assumptions about the capacitors role vs the inductor are spot on. I would suggest looking up the formulas for capacitive reactance, and inductive reactance, you will be interested to note that they are exact inverses to each other, perfect mirror opposites. If you do not know what reactance is, it is the resistance to charge with relation to frequency applied.

Capacitors offer less reactance or also called impedance (measured in good old ohms) in higher frequency situations, while inductors

Offer more reactance, or impedance (measured in ohms) in higher frequency situations.

You will also be interested to note that when used in combination, they oscillate energy between them if given a push.

This is teslas secret, how he achieved frequencies many many times higher than mechanical convenience would allow.

I suggest reading up on the very basics of these two devices, on impedance, on LC circuits, both parallel, and in series, absorb all you can.

Yay! another interesting character in the OU soap opera! Keep up the good work, always need conflict, the spice of life really.

@allcanadian
The spark gap is a circuit controller nothing more, it makes and breaks the connection. The gap itself is not necessary.

@armagdn03
I am very sure you know much more about this than you are willing to tell us, I just put 2 and 2 together in the thread next to this one Patent 512340. HV/HF and the LC relationship is the answer I have been looking for and Tesla has been telling us this all along, we just haven't been listening.

  Conflict might spice life but it also has a more practical function.  It causes growth.

Tesla's capacitive inductor is interesting.
