High Voltage from Thin Air?

[DrStiffler]

First results worth mentioning. Light bulb used is this - Sam's Club - Lights of America® Downlight LED Accent - 45W/2pk
Rewired all (but 5) LEDs to be connected in series, 55 total. S-Gate connected via a coil, 65 turns of AWG24 (I think).
First shot is with the flash, second is without, just to show the brightness.
Voltmeter is connected to AV plug.

Still trying to figure out how to get maximum brightness out of this little gem.

@ABC
What is the diagram you are running from? Looks like maybe you may be missing a large coil?

Dr,

I made an SGate to the specs found in sgate.pdf but I have to have a 'large coil' in between collector and the SGate. Connecting collector->Sgate->Large coil to nowhere does not work for me...
Also, does it make a difference to use 400pF instead of 470pF? That would shift the LC resonance a bit.
I've also noticed that having LEDs connected parallel (sometimes) yields better output

To change the subject for a moment - when do you think v4 will be ready to come out?

ABC,
Try the following:
Replace turning coil with 4.7 uH coil
Use 470 pF capacitor
Coil from (+) to collector 22 uH
Coil from collector to Avramenko plug 2 x 22 uH in sequence (or one 44uH)
Don't use the Sgate.
Let me know how did it go if you tried it

P.S. Forgot to mention. Connect metal plate to the one of ends in Avramenko plug, play with it for best result.

Hi Doc, any experiential stuff you want done on the RV we have a fully operational unit here and can upon your request test what ever. No point in not sharing resources.

Excess Heat

I'm doing a video this weekend on excess heat. You should look at the thread here;http://www.energeticforum.com/renewa...y-ainslie.html

I have not yet tried this circuit, I rather returned to the early 15-3 Exciter and modified it by removing parts (super simple) design. When I was doing this is was very difficult for replicators to do the heat testing as building a calorimeter was a project in and of itself. What I have done is come up with a simple unit that will get you close enough to the truth and in a way it should be accepted. I have a calorimeter design used by a majority of sciences, physics and chem classes, the simple Styrofoam cup system and a glass thermometer (some digitals may work) but you are safe with the old glass type.

So here is what you will need;

6 (minimum) 16oz Styrofoam cups. You can get them at the dollar store at 20 for $1. Some will get cut up. Get the Hot/Cold ones and the fine grain construction, the marbley looking ones are hard to work with and cut.

Glass thermometer at least 6" long and calibrated in degrees C. Degrees F is okay, but you will need to do some conversion math on the readings.

Some Elmers Glue and/or a Clear small projects adhesive such as Liquid Nails for Small Projects.

A SEC 15-3 with the coils I specify, this has to match my designs.

A Neon bulb, a small one is nice, but a 1.9mA unit is ideal.

Some distilled water.

Razor Blade

Stop watch or other elapsed time timer and a pencil and paper. A calculator will come in handy if you are not good at long hand math.

I'll post when the video is up on YT. Its worth the under five dollar cost to test this on.

How to build a simple calorimeter

@All
If you can not build this simple, yet accurate measurement device, then please do not participate in the coming Heat Experience.

Well done sir,

Bringing an accurate, and incredibly useful device into the hands of the home experimenter for the price of a thermometer!

Thank you.

@Armagdn03
Thank you and yes it is practical for many tests. My next video will show the mounting of the neon for the following testing.

Of course if you are into chem reactions this blows the single cup away by far.

Stay tuned.

@Doc
Can I ask you a favor ?
Please confirm if you got a PM from me, a yes or no is enough.

@Eric
If you are referring to one via this forum 5/31, then yes!

I prefer private mail via my carrier so that we can encrypt if required. I just do not like going through what is really an open account. If you have a certificate send me a mail and I will forward a cert to you.

If this is the mail you are asking about, I can not answer in open form.

Thanks

[Tecstatic]

@Doc

OK, thanks, I understand.

I will look into the subjects on secure mails. Right now I just use anonymous browsing. So much info is collected during ordinary browsing. Actually secure communication on the Internet is close to impossible, I spent two months on the subject last year, it was scary.

I guess this forum has to do the difficult balance between spreading the word, and keep members safe, not an easy task.

I think many will find your calorimeter an intersting tool. Variations on your circuit will actually make energy "dissapear". The calorimeter is an intersting tool for understanding entropic interactions as a whole, no matter which direction they point!

@Armagdn03

When you say "make energy dissapear" I assume you are speaking of a (Reduction of Starting Entropy)?

Thanks

Dr. Stiffler,

Yes, this is what I meant, uncounted for energy "loss". I have done some experimenting with lumped element circuits with similar characteristics to your coheres, and found that certain configurations will have this effect. (Perhaps I was hasty in saying it was a configuration of your circuit, it was similar, but one could argue many differences) It is more easily seen in simpler "delay line" configurations where you can track charge densities around the circuit at any given time.

I have not really "seen" this with respect to heating or cooling yet, mainly because I have not invested the time into measuring these things in detail, however this is definitely a direction which should not be ignored. I have found, and im sure others have had the "inkling" that the ideal gas law, (PV=nrT) has an electrical counterpart. So thanks again for helping out with a simple, and effective measurement tool!

Perhaps someone should start a thread entitled, "High voltage INTO thin air!" he he

By the way... Has anybody seen a source for a modern Thermocouple Galvanometer? (ammeter), I can only find the occasional antique.
