This is my new and improved earth battery running 4 ultra bright 10mm 28,000 MCD LEDs. I am using a standard Joule Thief circuit wound (bifilar) on a ferrite toroid this time. An N3904 transistor, 1k resistor and a 2.3 volt, 10 Farad super capacitor. The earth battery is putting enough out now to not only run these leds, but also charge the cap as you will see when I disconnect it and bring it inside. I can run more. For more information, go to Overunitydotcom in the Joule Thief topic. Thanks.

    This type of battery/generator can not be placed in series or parallel. I have tried and so have many others. The Stubblefield coil can be. Check out my latest videos where I light 400 leds from this set up.

    Thanks for your comment.

  • deeper cathode , more surface area, farther away from anode, use 2 metals farthest apart as possible on nobility scale of dissimilar metals.. make 10 of these to get 12-14 volts. From my experiments, it seems like 100 ma is doable, so ten of those and you have one amp (of 12V potential).. steady current. the stubblefield coil seems to give more power for the amount of space it uses but takes more materials and work to create, although its more efficient and more power so prob. worth it

  • @Pirate88179 @Pirate88179 nobody would care if you cancelled your electric. everyone should, and I mean every single person should cancel their electric all at once and tell them to go f themselves until they find a way to give us free energy. they will have no choice.

    Ha ha...little danger of that at this point. My best thus far is lighting 400 leds from the EB. Now, if I were running my home from it, then they might take notice.

    careful now,

    dont want to piss off any high level crude oil executives

  • @ pirate88179 I can imagine, but I would be worried about tainting the soil, if this was somehow reproduced large scale what effect on the environment reacting metals with the earth constantly. But maybe there's a way...

  • @ConnorXV

    With what I am doing, I agree 100% with this. But, remember that Stubblefield lit his house, and heated his house and ran the telephone system of Murry, KY using his earth batteries. I believe that it can be done, I just don't know how to do it yet.

  • @ricoalagoproductions you need to think about the power (wattage) rather than voltage, earth batteries are going to be very large but give out a low current as well as run out after some period meaning it needs to be replaced, if you just step up a 20v 1 Watt input to 230v output you will still only have 1W of power, that wont work to power your house.

  • @Pirate88179 You mean to tell me this knowledge is been around since the 1800s and we are now finding out? How many wars could have been avoided if this info had been released sooner? mmm.....

  • @ricoalagoproductions

    That is what everyone is working toward...we are not there yet. Stubblefield powered his farm with this technology back in the late 1800's.
