Donald Smith Devices too good to be true

Once that button has been pressed there is no going back and someone with a lot of money will profit and leave the inventor behind without ever having the funds to develop the other life changing technologies they have been working on.

That's just one of the saddest thing in this cruel world.

https://ionpowergroup.com/#/?playlistId=0&videoId=0

does this group also plagiarizes Bruce's work?.. If that group isn't in anyway connected to the people in that other patent.. and bruce would state that these are also the people that plagiarizes his work.. that would really make Bruce look bad..

what I'm trying to say is, If the "Reward" is not meant for Bruce, its never going to be..
I have high respect for the man that is why I decided to follow him. but seeing the way he acts now is really disappointing.

[soundiceuk]

Personally I don't really care how we move forward.

Just As long As we do move forward.

None of us are getting any younger.

Neither are our children or grandchildren.

Whilst the internet remains somewhat free and less censored we have a chance to seize the moment.

For years I've been trying to convince Bruce that open sourcing his technology completely will see him right financially.

In the last few years my opinion changed that it wouldn't work that way.

Once that button has been pressed there is no going back and someone with a lot of money will profit and leave the inventor behind without ever having the funds to develop the other life changing technologies they have been working on.

Yes this is off topic but this thread is one of those threads that does that all the time.

It always finds its way back to Don Smith.

I just wish it would find its way to the answers that we all seek one way or another.

I agree with you based on the claims of the patents. However, the description in my patent was entered into the "public domain" once my patent was published. Only the "claims" in a granted patent have legal protection. However, US9564268 is null and void because it doesn't contain new and novel intellectual property. It's "claims" were already in the public domain. My patent description predates US Patent No. 9,564,268... which is based on information at the time my patent was placed into the public domain. This clearly shows that I'm the original inventor. My intention when I filed my patent was to put the technology into the public domain. I also intentionally allowed my patent to expire when I didn't pay its first maintenance fee. This effectively also put my patent claims into the public domain.

Have some due respect man!

-Bruce P.

Bruce, I don't think its worth the fight.. if your intention was really to put your work into the public domain as you stated so that people can learn and appreciate.. I suggest you should contact the administrator of this forum.. tell him about your work.. he might find some like minded folk that you can share your work with.. or maybe can be part of the group...

I don't know if your aware but If you didn't know.. the people of these forums [The administrators] held an annual "Energy Conference" where-in there are people that presents their work, based on "Energy".

I haven't been into an actual conference personally but by checking on these forums for few years, and watching their conferences videos. I think your somewhat in the same situation their in... I think these people already have a "working device" just like you and just not telling outright and public the actual device and just try to dwell on the science of things by holding a conference every now and then and by selling informative materials like books/ebooks, videos etc. why?.. I think because they also tried to fight...

What I think is.. if people Don't appreciate your work.. It means one thing, they are not ready for it..

The field in which you are working with relates with POWER GENERATION.. sure it will help our current state of living.. sure it will make our lives easier.. but there also exist people with malice.. and If they get their hands on this type of things what do you think will happen??..

I don't think It's worth pushing your work to people.. or arguing who's first or whatever.. I suggest you STOP.. not all people can appreciate your work..

let me just add my reason for posting another off-topic to this thread:
It just Irks me when you post more arguments topics on other forums than post directive/informative post on your own forum to your replicators.

Based upon the patent CLAIMS, my conclusions are that these two patents have little, or nothing, in common; bar the general items that are well known to those skilled-in-the-art.

US9564268 and the US7800286B2 do contain some pertinent detail.

For clarity I have included my interpretation/wording of the claims from both patents.

Now, since we are an informal group; let me just add two phrases that you may find valuable in patent and claim
construction; a) "but not limited to," and, b) "as is known to those skilled-in-the-art" or "one skilled in the art." There
are many others (as are found in most patents); but you hopefully get the idea! Happy patenting...

Two prime reasons [there are many others of course] for patenting an invention or idea; (1.) protect your invention,
and (2.) stop others from stopping you from deploying your inventions or ideas!!! Also, public domain exposure of
your idea (open source) is a gamble to some extent however it is cost effective and often times the servicing of your
idea can be more rewarding and lucrative than actually trying to manufacture and sell your invention (the idea or the product) .
Food for thought...

If my work wasn't constantly being plagiarized, and being disrespected the world would have "free energy" in their hands by now. I refuse to give such a gift to ungrateful people. Because of this there will be a price, it will be around 10 million dollars now for the public to be able to have complete access to the technology. Really, it is a small price to pay these days. I would have given it gratis if I was given credit where it was due.

-Bruce P.

Doesn't matter if that's a million people paying 10 dollars or 10 million paying a dollar.

I know a lot of folk have their own strong opinions on selling a free energy technology.

Mine has changed many times over the last 7 years.

Bruce has so much more than this it would be insane for him not to benefit so he can carry on with his research and development of his other technologies that will change our lives forever!!

A radioionic receiver would fit on your bench and power your entire house.

Just need 10 million people willing to pay a dollar and it's ours....

I'm sure I'll probably get flamed in some way for saying this.

Eventually one of you will make a demo video based on what Bruce has already disclosed and we will find these people willing to contribute.

Then Bruce hasn't got to bear the burden anymore and we will have the ability to be free and evolve as we should have a very long time ago!

Hi tswift,

and Unusual Features" book of 2015 (attached in a translated .pdf format).

He attributes the anomalies you mention to the Positron [+], it might be considered
the opposite, or conjugate, or antiparticle to the Electron [-] and he provides some interesting
evidence and observations.

Anyway, have a look...

Thanks, this looks like a very good reference! I'll take the time to digest it thoroughly, may take a while. If he's talking about electron/positron symmetries then we're probably on the same track. Conventional physics recognizes "CPT symmetry", where the laws of physics are identical considering an electron moving to the right in forward time with a positron moving to the left in reverse time. To quote from the wikipedia article:

The implication of CPT symmetry is that a "mirror-image" of our universe — with all objects having their positions reflected by an arbitrary plane (corresponding to a parity inversion), all momenta reversed (corresponding to a time inversion) and with all matter replaced by antimatter (corresponding to a charge inversion)— would evolve under exactly our physical laws. The CPT transformation turns our universe into its "mirror image" and vice versa. CPT symmetry is recognized to be a fundamental property of physical laws.

To the best of my knowledge, CPT symmetry is believed to be absolute by current generally accepted physics. However, there are known cases of CP symmetry violation, which implies T symmetry violation. So even to a university-trained physicist, the idea that some particles could be time-reversed is actually not far from what they learned in school. Like I said previously, if an inventor comes forward claiming some magic "radiant energy" machine, most scientists won't even seriously consider it because it isn't framed in language they understand. When that day comes, if there is at least a proposed theory that might be an extension of things they have been taught but doesn't require completely invalidating them, then I think at least the scientific community will find it much more palatable. Perhaps the general public probably won't care as long as it works as advertised, but a lot of people trust experts and people with "PhD" after their name. Right now there is a big intellectual hurdle to overcome where the experts won't even take this kind of work seriously.

[radioionics]

Really? Are you serious? Then, you haven't read it carefully. The description clearly shows my work predates the patent in question.

"Said modification can also be utilized without the use of the radioactive substance 4, if the input source has enough energy to excite the vapor or gas into its electrically conductive state."

"A simple earth ground and antenna raised to a suitable height can be used to take advantage of the potential difference that exists between the planet and its atmosphere, although this is not always practical. Charging capacitance 9 with this method is unpredictable and slow. Any suitable circuit may be used to supply the required potential difference to energize the alpha-fusion valve 8 and this will not depart from the spirit of the invention." Also, please study figure 2. This is as clear as day!

In fact, with the use of my unique discharge tube, my patent is much more efficient in converting the atmospheric ions into useful electrical power. My work resides in the "public domain" and can be viewed at RADIOIONICS RESEARCH TEAM, where several creame of the crop replicators are currently reproducing my contributions.

BTW, FYI, my discharge tube is even more advanced than what I've revealed in my patent, using more effective semiconductors. These have been shared in my Earth Ion Energy forum PPV Discussions. This is now in the public domain and as a result cannot be claimed in a new patent.

If my work wasn't constantly being plagiarized, and being disrespected the world would have "free energy" in their hands by now. I refuse to give such a gift to ungrateful people. Because of this there will be a price, it will be around 10 million dollars now for the public to be able to have complete access to the technology. Really, it is a small price to pay these days.

Is this what phase conjugate electricity looks like in a scope?

No, you wouldn't be able to tell by looking at a scope trace. Essentially the phenomenon of phase conjugation, as I'm referring to it here, means time reversal. The electrons, or other charge carriers in the circuit, act as if their own local sense of time is backwards to the rest of the universe. Think of Einstein's famous thought experiment of riding along with a beam of light, watching the hands of a clock. The clock would appear to have stopped. Time dilation in relativistic physics is a well-known and well-studied phenomenon. Certainly we know from this that the rate of passage of time can be different for different observers, so it's not a big stretch to take the physics even farther and postulate that since the laws of electrodynamics are time-symmetric, there is a dual component to all electricity. There is a normal, familiar, time-forward action. There is an equal and opposite time-reversed reaction by the rest of the universe trying to restore equilibrium whenever you "disturb ambient", as Don would have put it. There is no way to tell which is which by looking at an oscilloscope or a meter because both are carried by electrons. They only differ in this "character", where one acts as if it's exactly backwards to everything normal. Many experimenters have seen it manifest in some way or other, where things start going weird and all of a sudden the normal laws no longer apply. This is the famous "cold electricity". It's already everywhere, but the trick is to collect and convert it separately from the normal "hot electricity" component.

Here are a few of the characteristics normally associated with this form of energy:

-it can power loads but certain things run cold instead of hot.
-it propagates in reverse from the output of a circuit back to the input.
-it develops more power in high impedance circuits, not low.

My theory is (and it is of course just a theory at this point) that all this happens because it's actually moving backwards in TIME. The real problem is not that we don't adequately understand electricity: the real problem is that we don't adequately understand time. Is this time reversal really happening in some sense, or is it merely apparent? If it is really happening then our concept of a linear time moving uniformly from "past" to "future" is not at all a picture of reality. Of course, we already know from relativity that concepts like simultaneity and causality aren't as clear-cut as we once thought either.

There are no current math models or computer programs capable of simulating it, because all the programs are using incorrect physics. It's like the difference between Newtonian physics and relativistic physics. In the normal case of low relative velocities they are equivalent, but start to diverge under special conditions. As energy researchers, we are trying to understand and dial in on the exact conditions that produce and enhance this phenomenon. Ultimately, folks better at theory than me will come along and give us some new and improved theories that will eventually allow us to model overunity systems, but I'm not even going to speculate how long that will take. Right now we don't even have a reliably reproducible working model.

As I have said before in this forum, once I have a working prototype device that can be reproduced, I will publish details for it, and a "proposed theory" of the physics behind it. I think if mainstream scientists have at least some theory they can grasp in familiar terms they can understand, it will go a long way toward eventual acceptance by science. So far, like Edison, I know a whole bunch of ways that do not work. But I have seen enough hints to know that it is not fiction, and that I'm on the right track to eventual success. Perhaps some other dedicated person will beat me to it, and that would also be OK with me.

Conjugate's

F.Y.I

Possible initial aids in gaining a further appreciation of phase conjugation
might be to also study RF circuit matching - using a Smith Chart and a complex
conjucate matching network [plot the line/source impedance; then follow
the "real" line on the chart to the opposite (conjugate) place on the capacitive
or inductive half of the chart (upper or lower half).

Another possible insight might be to look into the phase conjugate optics arena -

And; Analysis of the Coupling Coefficient in Inductive Energy Transfer Systems:

https://www.hindawi.com/journals/apec/2014/951624/

Quote "6. Conclusions
In this paper, the coupling coefficient between two coplanar and coaxial coils was analyzed as a function of the separation distance. We derived an equation for the mutual inductance from Neumann’s equation which can be used to estimate the coupling coefficient between the coils. In order to derive the equation, we used a power series approximation for the solution of the elliptic integrals, which is usually calculated by numerical integration. The derived equation presented good accuracy when compared to simulation results. The experimental results demonstrated the limitation of the presented equation, as it can only be used for coil geometries and properties that do not lead the solution of the elliptic integral of the first kind to infinity.
The analysis presented here is useful for inductive link systems where the distance between the coils is not constant. By predicting the behavior of the coupling coefficient as a function of the variable distance, it is possible to devise a simple mechanism capable of locking the system efficiency at a desired level despite variations in the relative position of the source and load."

-Bruce P.

Good find! On a first reading, it appears to me as if the same principle is at work as in the Don Smith devices, the thing I've been trying to understand and generally calling "phase conjugate" electricity. The energy coming up from earth in response to a high voltage is characteristically different from normal electricity, and when you put it through a transformer interesting things happen. In the patent they use both natural atmospheric energy, and then give it a boost with a high voltage spark system. I think either natural or assisted the energy works the same way. This is essentially Don's demonstration of zapping the capacitor with the handheld Tesla coil all over again, and the collecting coil is between the capacitor and ground as I mentioned several posts back.

I note they don't give any performance or power characteristics in the patent, it wouldn't surprise me if a system like this could generate kilowatts with minimal input. Also the coiled extendable ground radial system is quite interesting. Dragon, is this system at all similar to your own ground energy collector?

[dragon]

Actually that makes sense, I think I understand what you mean. Have you ever found that the earth current thus tapped seems to produce a power gain on going through a transformer?

The energy that's there is free... so the question becomes, how can you take what's there and enhance it?

Fig 3 in the patent shows the formation of a current loop on the lower windings - how would that affect the magnetic field in the transformer core? I'd say it raises current to it's maximum potential which increases the field in the core and is reflected on the output windings.

From there it's a question of how much energy is needed to drive the impulse to bring the transformer into resonance.

I found the patent interesting and quite informative in its simplistic form so I thought it would be of interest to others as well.
