Thanks.

It took about 15 minutes to wind. When I can get 22 gauge wire, I'm going to make another.

I mention in the vid I would super glue the spaced turns. It was pointed out to me that I shouldn't super glue my spaced turns since it could eat the enamel. I'm going to use a hot glue gun.

Hi Aaron. Any pics of the finished design with the 22gauge wire? Any mpg figures? thanks

Livehho,

I never used it on my car. I only did some bench experiments. My wire
gauge was smaller than what Bergstresser used so if I was going to use
it, I would rewind one with the right bigger size.

My friend used one years ago when Bergstresser sold them and it worked
for him on a big V8. More power and mileage.

I have done other inductor in series with spark plugs and have seen that
the spark does seem to be prolonged. It is a $5 project that just about
anyone could do.

so Bergstresser sold them? I don't suppose u have the link? it would be nice to have the original product. Much easier to replicate.

too long ago

No, it was back in the 70's or 80's I think.

I figured I'd cross reference this to a post I made http://www.energeticforum.com/renewa...html#post88914

Related to coil windings in opposite directions with a voltage and frequency increase in output

Marketing name.

No, it was back in the 70's or 80's I think.

By looking at the patent diagrams, as well as your replication, it appears you're discussing a device which was marketed as the "Lectran Pulsar".

I happen to have one of these devices here, though the label specifying the patent number has long since been lost.

Mileage Gain not the issue

Hi Guys,

I owned one of the original Bergstresser units. I bought it directly from Ralph. I had purchased a 1973 Chevy Impala from a friend in 1983. The car had a 454 engine and was set up to pull a huge house trailer. The engine was designed to run on 102 octane gas, available in 1973, but in 1983, I could only get 94 octane gas, and the engine was knocking like a son-of-a-bit**. Putting the spark elongator in-between the coil and the distributor allowed the engine to run smoothly on the lower octane gas, with no other modifications to the engine. I was very happy with its performance. I never did any mileage tests to see if it improved with the unit.

I just finished reading The Lost Journals of Nikola Tesla, and what do you know? a reference to bergstresser! I'm about to read up more on this guy!

Over the course of time - largely in the last decade - some of Tesla's lost journals have been uncovered, and a
number of his "secret inventions'' have been privately developed. One of these inventions is Tesla's Purple
Harmony Generator — also know as Tesla's Purple Energy Plate. Though the "generators" have been around for a
number of years, they are only now starting to receive the international attention they deserve in the alternative
energy field. In an article published in the August 2000 edition of the popular FATE magazine, author Corrie
DeWinter mentions that she first became aware of the generators while reading a book called STAR SIGNS by
Linda Goodman. "Goodman mentions that the person who created the plates with Tesla preferred to remain
anonymous. However, after the inventor's death, the company which produced the plates decided to give him due
credit. The inventor, Ralph Bergstresser was bom in 1912 in Pueblo, Colorado, of German parents who immigrated
to the United States. He was extremely interested in free energy, or Zero Point Energy" as it is now called in
scientific circles. Bergstresser carefully studied anything written about Nikola Tesla's experiments, and attended
many lectures given by Tesla. At one point they were introduced and quickly became friends, due to their shared
interest in free energy."
According to the FATE article, Bergstresser continued with his work for many years and following Tesla's death
came into possession of several notebooks which helped him further develop the harmony plates. For all intents
and purposes the plates look innocent enough. Coming in a variety of sizes, they are purple in color and are said to
be "in resonance, or in tune, with the basic energy of the universe. They function as transceivers—creating a field
of energy around themselves that will penetrate any material substance by osmosis. The energy is very beneficial
to all life... plant, animal, or human. It might be considered as Positive Energy." Somehow or other ~ according to
current thinking regarding the plates ~ the original atoms of the anodized aluminum structures are restructured
when put through a proprietary process whereby the vibrational frequency of the atoms and electrons is changed.
Non-approved FDA testing has reportedly shown that the healing process is accelerated for burns and bone
fractures when the injured party becomes the focal point of the purple plates' force field by wearing one of the self
contained generators. Aches and pains are said to go away, the quality of sleep may be improved, water and food
becomes more tasty (to establish this simply put a purple plate on a shelf in your frig. The quality of cheap
wine is remarkably enhanced. Plates have been placed under sick houseplants, and near the food dish of small
pets. Corrie De Winter in her FATE article offers several suggestions for the use of the plates: "Place a small-size
plate in a pocket or purse for energy... small plate (is often) placed on forehead to alleviate headache pain, on joints
to alleviate gout and arthritis pain, on stomach to stop nausea...Placed on forehead in the morning will help you to
remember your dreams... I have also read testimonials from plate users who claim they help with cramps,
headaches, stomach upsets, stiff joints, torticollis, swelling, ringworm, 'clicking' jaw, alcoholism, anxiety, colic and
depression."
Probably one of the most influential tests has been conducted by the Perrysburg School District allowing them
to stop using dangerous pesticides around the Frank Elementary School pupils and very naturally by utilizing the
Tesla generators or plates. According to the school custodian, the plates where installed in the cafeteria and
elsewhere around the building allowing them to greatly control the pest population. One of the most commonly
used pesticides was developed by Hitler in World War II to penetrate mustard gas masks... the purple plates
provide
a totally safe means to attack the problem of pests. Tesla's Purple Harmony Plates come in a number of sizes and
are now available through the publishers of this special insider report (see next page). Test them yourself!
