Earth Battery SG

OK Lidmotor, here it is! --- itsi bitsi bobin bedini

Tonight I made this replication of lidmotor's bobin bedini which can run from a very low amp battery source.
And it works!
So, it is plant battery number 6 which has only 5 leaves of a philo plant and 30 inches of magnesium ribbon and 20 inches of copper wire. That is it!
If this follows the pattern from the past, this will run for 5 days then as the magnesium ribbon begins to weaken, it will slow down. Then, I can restore the full amperage by adding only a small piece of fresh magnesium. 4 to 5 inches usually works and adds another week of life to the battery.

Success!!!!

That is great! From the sound of your voice in the video you feel about the same way as I do about all of this. It is just amazing to build one of these and stare down at it as it runs. They are facinating to watch and getting it to run off the plant battery is even better.

Here is another video by Min2oly of his little Bedini Window motor running off two plant batteries in series:

Hi everybody,

I have some video footage, but I need to return to my new land in the woods today and I do not have the time to edit it.

So, I will share some results with you all as a teaser or trailer

1- I made a red led for that earth battery with magnesium. The red led flashed very weakly and maybe 1 time in 2 seconds.

2- Then I added 5 feet to the copper, and put the copper in a spiral on the N side and the flashing may have gone faster, but the light was definitely bright.

3- Next, I only moved the same length of magnesium to an inch above the copper and made it into a ring. this time it went really really bright.

If you think about how a spiral increases the magnetic contact for each turn, it makes sense that this is a good shape for this.

I wonder if i am retracing Stubblefield's steps, because the next logical thought is... well, what if I make a lot more turns and next would be what about a core?

Anyway, I will continue a little while I am in the woods some more, then I will share more!

edit
this is the video I eventually made to show this progression

You maybe wanna try as next Coils like this

From my playing around with normal Coils i know, it has something,
when you drive a Coil with another just with the Poles into the middle from the other.
He use some inductive coupled and others wound around others, wich seems affect them from the side.
I only dont know, where to get the Faith for it, what he use, from the Description.

slightly off topic

does it matter if the Bedini SSG wheel spins clockwise or counter clockwise?
I have an Imotep converted fan charging batteries and it will run either direction.

Which is correct or doesn't it matter?

Thanks,

[citfta]

direction of SSG

Hello,

No it does not really matter. On some of the bike wheel SSGs some of the people have said it seems to charge better one way than the other. But most of us have not seen any difference in charging with it spinning either way.

Thank you.
Mine does charge better, use less amps from source battery, in 1 direction as opposed to the other.

I just tried a quick test for that dllabarre, and when using more amps it charges better, using less -> lower charge.

Hi everybody,

Here is another video. It is following the development of the outside plant battery (aka earth battery )

YouTube - EarthPlantBatteryJouleThief

It is only 3 minutes, but not very compressed so you can see the red led. Still, I may need to make pointers so you can see the light.

---------
And on another front:


Plant battery #1 refused to turn on after a week of rest, but it turns out that the magnesium had gone even though the circuit was off!??? Can you figure that?
So, all I needed to do was add a 4 inch piece of fresh magnesium and it started up again!

There is more thinking to do on this. If it cannot be turned off, it is really interesting to think about what is happening.
Maybe lidmotor happened on a great idea to collect the output in a capacitor when it is not in "use".

I made a couple of water batteries in Ice cube trays using copper and zinc.

here are the videos of the two trays powering two jumbo LED's. Each tray is a series battery by itself, then wired to another tray in parallel.

The LED's have been lit for over 4 days now and believe they will continue until the electrolysis destroys either the zinc or the copper.

Nothing is added to the water as an electrolyte just pure spring water run through a filtering unit. I found another video where the guy claimed 316 SS and zinc worked better and much longer, I will try that next.

here is part 1 and part 2 of my videos.

I was hoping someone would duplicate and run a circuit off it they already had built.

Has anyone replicated Lasersaber's Stubblefield?

@All
I have been trying to replicate Lasersaber's Stubblefield (out of the ground) battery that will self-run a pulse motor. No luck so far and if anyone out there has done it PLEASE let me know. Here is the last video that he posted showing the magic. Notice that there is no battery---the coil IS the battery!!!

YouTube - Working Nathan Stubblefield Coil!


Here is a video of where I am with the project.

Oh so close!

Hi lidmotor,

Please look at minute 1:08 or so of lasersaber's latest video where he says it is working.
This is where he describes that he has connected one copper and one aluminum wire to the reed switch...
"when you do a make and break switch between the al and cu wire, it generates..."
please look at 1:08 of this video
It goes by pretty fast, but this is what I am trying to describe.
And remember the other ends of those wires are open. It is only the secondary that has the led.

I hope this works!

Hi, I have tried ALL the different ways to hook this up and nothing works. Even if I put a AA battery in the circuit of the iron/copper route you describe-- it does nothing. There is something very basic wrong here. I need better details on how to build that Lasersaber coil. Right now I have a weak galvanic battery and an electromagnet but I can't get them to dance together.
I hope someone else can replicate this and tell us how it is done.

If you insulated the secondary from the primary coil using cotton then that may be your problem. In the patent it clearly shows a wooden spool for insulating the secondary. The cottons dielectric action on the secondary windings may be causing interference. Lasersabers isnt using a secondary coil as far as I know. Also from what I see from your Video is that the secondary coil doesnt look uniform. You may need these windings side by side in a uniform matter. That would keep the magnetic field itself uniform.
The core materiel may also be a problem. If your not using a core like lasersaber then back the magnets off to the max possible. That may help stop the core from being magnetized. If a small washer or paper clip hangs on to the core when its not energized then there may be too much remanence.
