Tesla "Hairpin" Circuit Replication

[ilav1m8y]

Ever tried charging a battery with Cold Electricity using Negative Dipole Antenna (Tesla Capacitor). To make a dipole antenna just get 2 rolls of aluminium foil & 2 rolls of contact clear plastic film then unroll each foil roll onto the sticky side of the contact film Then you take these 2 aluminium/plastic films stack them & roll up like a coil and connect each film to each battery contact. Cold vacuum state Electricity draws charge from space & adds charge to battery. See ilav1m8y channel expl

the gap in tesla's design, is that just 2 capacitors or 4, because i can't tell. also what are you using as a power source?

Man you got some balls.

Greetings!

I tried 470pF caps, too small. Please tell where you find HV caps in Ukraine? Maby give a link. I would be very greatful!

Thanks for video!

Question: If the di-electric in the capacitors was stronger than the di-electric of the spark gap, then we would still expect to see the hot current pumping through the spark gap, even with the bar shorted across the poles, correct?

[coldarc]

the guy in the video has just proven what i thought all the time, the light bulb

is connected in serial with the spark gap that light it up with pure electron charge.

the bulb act like an independent circuit as the spark gap form an open circuit.

the same thing benjamin franklin did with his kite trough a lightning strike

magnetising an iron key

[coldarc]

paralell coupling is still 50% ineffiecient

since the acceleration of electrons spark gap is moving in serial with the bulb

where the other halved is moving directly trough the bulb, and you loose some

of the energy.

@coldarc Perhaps it's the language barrier but I don't think you understand the circuit correctly. The bulb is actually connected in parallel across the filtering capacitors, which are also parallel with the spark gap. Those caps, in that specific geometry, filter out ALL electrons, and only a potential field (displacement current) forms across that portion of the circuit, including the bulb.

How conect the caps with the aluminum rods? + to +? or +to -?

[Individualism101]

About midway through you can hear electrical pickup in the microphone circuit.

Awesome replication, really an interesting device.

Any idea at what frequency it is discharging?

If you have time, try to find out how many lamps you can connect on the same position on the bar and if they'll dim when lamps are added.

[AEVector]

My oscilloscope probes probably can't handle the high voltage so I don't know what the actual frequency is. I had some high voltage probes but they got burnt up from my Gray circuit I did years ago.

[crackahcrackah]

@AEVector May I recommend you download the entire Tesla patents e-pdf from a torrent? You can find frequency meters that Tesla designed. I would consider such projects a real adventure, but definitely a slow, long term project as there are no examples from other people floating around to streamline the process. Guys, if you're interested in high frequency research, please look at patent 568,176 and the cited patents within it (there were 2 letters on the same). Feel free to pm me too.

[AEVector]

I'm pretty sure they will dim, the more lamps I add to it. Maybe slightly, but the reason I know is because when I short the two bars, I notice the bulb dimming. I got my 2000pF caps...should make another video soon.

[crackahcrackah]

@AEVector They probably will dim. I have made a solid state version of tesla's patent 568,176; on high frequency current. I'm only working at ~9Khz for the open/shutting of the circuit. I use a large 6.5 in toroidal inductor. I can get 600V spikes from ~34V of source. The dV/dT of FETs I have tested range from 7ns,18ns,28ns,50ns. As the dV/dT gets longer the spikes get smaller. On the current isolated section, the pure voltage is like a finite stream. Loads have a noticable effect on V.

@crippled82 Hey, I'm cripple too. Being cripple, and having the personality of an INTJ, from the Meyers-Briggs test, ain't actually all that bad. I'm probably a few decades ahead of my peers in comprehending things within "reality". Any way, keep your mind focused on productive things and try not to let your ailment lead your life. Easier said than done,...I know. Regards.
