My circuit? That was your circuit - first one in your post above - lol anyway just wanted to mention I built it. Now here is something a bit more interesting. I got this from a scanned PDF member 'wings' posted at OU - Quest for Zero Point by Moray King. Very good book. From pages 78-80 (or 39-40 if you are using the PDF viewer page count) this info I found very interesting and I think relevant to some discussion here. Apologies for below text may not be perfect as it was OCR'd and then quickly corrected some errors.
" Pappas (1991)hypothesized all sparks produce excessive energy. Shoulders (1991) demonstrated that excessive energy can be created in any electrical discharge that produces EV's. What if every spark naturally produces submicron plasmoids (even smaller than Shoulder's EV 's)? Finally, there is abrupt ion motion on the inception of any spark, fulfilling Moray's hypothesis. There is a strong likelihood of some ZPE coupling in any abrupt electrical discharge. In fact some investigators have proposed that an abrupt voltage pulse with only (vacuum) displacement current and minimal charge motion is sufficient to produce anomalously excessive energy. Bearden (1993) proposed this is his "final secret, and Hyde (1990) used this principle in designing his invention (a mechanical electrostatic field chopper) that reportedly output 20 KW while self running. Hyde stressed there should be no corona present whatsoever. The Swiss ML Converter could likewise be sirnply explained if indeed there were energy in all electrostatic pulses.
Electrostatic pulses or abrupt voltage spikes are notoriously difficult to tap efficiently as an energy source.
Many inventors have directed high voltage pulses to recharge batteries with claims of over unity. Unfortunately such pulsing often damages the battery, and of course, an energy machine that cannot self run, but instead relies on batteries, is unconvincing to skeptics.
Clearly what is needed is a method to convert voltage spikes to a useful form of power, preferably DC. Hyde (1990) had to solve this problem in order to make his machine free running. His solution (described in figure 6 of his patent, also King, 1993) took advantage of the fact that even though the individual electrostatic pulses were of high voltage, the current (and thus power) of each was very low. This allowed Hyde to make a voltage divider current multiplier circuit utilizing a large number of inexpensive capacitors and diodes that could be run in excess of their voltage specification without damage. High voltage electrostatic pulses were converted to amplified current pulses at a lower voltage which were then rectified to DC by Standard means. Hyde empirically solved a difficult engineering problem, and the solution allowed him to build a self running energy machine. An easy to build, efficient, current multiplier would facilitate wide spread experiments to investigate claims of excessive energy in electrostatic pulses or sparks, as well as form the basis for a solid state zero-point energy machine. The following Pulse Current Multiplier (PCM) was inspired by Hyde's invention. The PCM is based on the Standard
voltage division technique of charging a bank of capacitors in series,
then discharging them in parallel. Figure 3 illustrates four stages of the
PCM. In practice it is desirable to have ten or more stages. The high
voltage pulse is input across the A terminals at the polarity shown.
The sharper the voltage spike, the better the performance.
The inductances should be the minimum value necessary to block the
input, for they must allow the output current (as a slow rise time pulse)
to pass with minimal attenuation. Hyde did not show any blocking
inductances in his patent. Since he developed his circuit empirically,
perhaps long or coiled output wires provided a sufficient blocking in-
ductance to achieve the same behavior. Ferrite beads might also suffice.
Since the PCM uses inexpensive components, it offers an economical
investigation of a possible ZPE coherence associated with high voltage
pulses and discharges.
A ten stage PCM amplifies the current by a factor of ten. Two
such PCM's can be combined in series to create a multiplication factor
of 100 (Figure 4). The output from the first PCM is impressed across the
input of the second. Since the pulses entering the second PCM will not
be as sharp, larger blocking inductances will be required in it. The principle
can be extended to a third PCM in series to give a multiplication
factor of 1000. Thus a sharp 40 KV spike could be stepped down to a
less steep 4 KV pulse and then to a wider 400 volt pulse. The second and third PCM 's will require more robust circuit components since
appreciable current is being accumulated. Once the pulses become sufficiently wide, then Standard, solid state switching technology can be used instead of the blocking inductances to create a PCM via Standard electrical engineering, voltage division techniques. Such a PCM could be
employed last in the series. An appropriate configuration of PCM's can
thus become an efficient voltage spike Converter.
output current pulse occurs across the B terminals. The inductors' purpose
is to block the sharp input voltage pulse (via high impedance) and
channel it down the (low impedance) series path which should be physically short.
