The inventions of Captain Hans Coler

[neptune]

Captain Coler is alleged to have built a device called a Magnetstromapparat, which, using only coils magnets and capacitors could generate up to 12 volts. This was  allegedly investigated by the British Government, and was the subject of a Government report. Has anyone attempted to duplicate this, or know of any duplication? If you go to http://angelfire.com/ak5/energy21/hanscoler.htm  you will see a photo of a replication. The builder obviously went to a lot of trouble. But results are "unknown". Any comments on this?

I am a bit surprised that there has been no interest in this. It occurs to me that this device is the basis for the TPU, and is worthy of further research. Also, it might be easier to start and adjust this thing by feeding a signal from a signal generator at an appropriate frequency.

I tried a replication of the Stromerzeuger.  The information out there is very sketchy. The premise that the electron is a south pole doesn?t seem to conform to physics. Here is a link to a couple videos I did trying to understand the concept. http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=qII_gsz-7ec  and http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=0qBCHjai7Os&NR=1.  I do agree that his experiments and the tpu are one in the same. I am still working on the theory.

G'day Neptune,

I think the reason why you are not getting any big response is not that people here are not interested, it is just that this magnificently built replication of the Coler device does not tell us anything new. The circuit diagram shows exactly the same.

What is needed are data. Without data it is just a pretty picture.

Does anyone know who built this?

no, but I do know that this company: http://www.magneticpowerinc.com/
apparently has this patent application: http://www.magneticpowerinc.com/pdf/MPI-patentapplication.pdf
which anonymous sources say is strongly related to the Coler devices...
Might be interesting to check out?
Doesn't even look like it's very difficult to replicate...

But as for the Coler devices, no, don't know who built that version.
There's quite some speculation on them, but so far no really succesful replications have been reported... as far as I know.
I think they are in fact more complicated than they seem to be in the descriptions, because the described setup
is quite simple, and should have been easily replicated many times already... My guess is that the description is not
entirely complete, that Coler knew some things from hands-on experience that he didn't actually describe...
