  • Hi John,

    What is the difference between amps before and after magnetic field is applied to light bulb? Does adding the magnetic field increase the current draw in the circuit?

    Thnx!

  • I have no way of measuring that.. we are dealing with a pulse...

  • John, I believe you're smarter than ya think!

    The way to measure short bursts of power is to take the average over time... If you know your pulse frequency, and accumulatively measure it the enrgy consumed by the circuit over time, you can dvide the amount of electricity consumed(Watts) by the frequency over the time the power accumulation was measured, and whalaaa you have the amount of power consumed per time... How to measure accumulative power consumption? batt volt before and after?

  • Very nicely put.(you have been following me). I am leaving this "Open" at the moment because I am more interested in the result (more light). This is just an experiment (part of) that I am looking at as part of a bigger picture (TPU). I am more interested at looking at the larger picture (for now).

  • thats how they start efishent compact floresent bulbs, it is already a known efect.

  • I understand your comment.. but what I was doing was more... the more field the lighter the tube.. If that was true than all the tubes would have a field around them. (not a current) a perm.magnet field.

  • John, if your ultimate power source is the wall socket, you can plug in a cheap ready killowatt type meter with plug in receptacle into the wall first, then plug in your power source to that device. I will record an increase in watts used or not.

    This would be a good way to really tell in any of your experiments if you have a net energy savings from one experiment to another.

  • Cool find and vid sir. If one mag works I say try more! Perhaps some small strong ones you cant get even at walmart. Put them together alternating n-s-n-s... with some insulator between like and bit of old innertube and glue them together and see if you get the same result or with more poles will it give the desired effect of more light from the mag effects on the electric flow? Keep up the great work. And thanks for doing, it's hard for a lot of us to do right now.

  • hey GREAT find, awesome!

  • Besides the magnet creating a pull on the electorns creating a greater density of electrons in one area of the tube, maby its also speeding them up, hence giving them kinetic energy which will then give a greater chance of more light.

  • Wow a blast from the past! when i was in 8th grade this is a test we did in science class, our class never found the answerer because our teacher was killed in a car accident the next day. Boy this brings back memories.......

  • cool.. i have flouresents and REM's gotta check this out.
