@Groundloop,

That's great. Looking forward to see the results of your replication. Good luck.

@Omnibus,

It will take 3 weeks until I can build and test this circuit.
I will be back with more info then. Attached is the Eagle CAD
files (zipped) if anybody want them. Eagle electronic CAD is
a free design program from http://www.cadsoft.de/ that
allow you to make up to 100mm x 100mm size pcb.
One need to buy the program if one want to make larger size pcbs.

Groundloop.

@All,

Here is a 555 oscillator circuit that can be used to switch coils.

The ICM7555IPAZ IC uses only 60uA to run but is still able to
drive a mosfet gate via a pullup resistor. The frequency range
can be changed by using a different value on C1. The really nice
feature on this circuit is that the frequency adjustment does NOT
affect the duty cycle, also, the  duty cycle adjustment does NOT
affect the oscillator frequency. The duty cycle can be adjusted
from (almost) 0% to (almost) 100%. The Eagle CAD files are
attached as a zipped file.

I hope you find this circuit useful.

Groundloop.

@Omega_0,

The more I think about the calorimetry the more convinced I get it's not appropriate a technique in this case. Even if the heat is measured accurately the problem with the input power is practically unresolvable. The complicated form of the signals requires a very detailed quantization and that can be achieved for only very short periods of time, way too short compared to the periods needed for accurate calorimetry. The method I'm applying, only comparing experimentally obtained electrical quantities, is the most rigorous indeed, provided these quantities are correctly measured. Now what needs to be done is to find qualified independent parties to reproduce what I've already found. @Groundloop said he's planing replication as well as you, as far as I recall. This third party replication has been the weak point in all OU claims so far and this study should be an example as to how such claims are to be handled. I'll try to speak with colleagues these days and see if they would be interested in reproducing the results. Also, I'd appreciate it if you or the other participants in this discussion would come up with names and/or places I could contact to explore if they'd want to try reproducing these findings. The beauty here is that we're dealing with easily available apparatus (easily available where such work is routinely done, of course) and with a device which cannot be more accessible.

Most people in Academia are afraid for their careers and they won't touch such experiments with a ten foot pole. Case in point -- there's an experiment done in one of the universities on the East Coast, confirmed in several independent labs, proving OU without a doubt. This hasn't been the goal of their research but has popped-up as an unexpected byproduct. A friend of mine is involved in it and him and I are really amazed to observe how the researchers themselves are reluctant to make their finding public. This is an effect that has never been discussed in the OU forums and it may be an element of what's causing the effect I'm observing. I won't get into this now to not get distracted from the main issue but that is a telling experience in addition to everything else we know about what's going on in the OU research field.
