a nickel is a penny

Well,

The results of the first splash attempt are too strange.

I guess I learned that a nickel has a lot of copper.

I put 2 nickels onto 2 leads and made a saturated sol of sodium tetraborate decahydrate aka borax laundry booster.
I used a dead 9v that gave 8.45v.

I got loads of bubbles, but within 30 seconds the nickel at the positive lead was covered with green under the bubbles.
Is it copper oxide?
It was a 'new' nickel and I thought it must be a non nickel formula, so I found an older one, and got the same results.

I guess I need to buy nickel electrodes grr.
I do not see where any copper came from other than the nickel itself. There was no copper in the borax so it must be the metal.
The alligator clips were above the water level.

So, I cannot say.
but I do want to say that although the metal was green the bubbles and green dropped off the coin which made me think this dropping and starting over activity of the electrolyte might be easier to achieve than I thought.
BTW. It was a simple saturated solution which means there was salt at the bottom that was still undissolved.

EDIT
Well, it seems I might have made Ni dihydroxide. ( HO - Ni - OH )
This is brighter than what I saw, but it is green.
It is used in batteries and ultra caps and made by hydrolysis of ammonia among other things.

The sheets indicate that it is pretty toxic, so, I guess I will put all this away.

nickel borate

Hi all,

In the video that Karl posted DN said that now they have been using Nickel + borate instead of cobalt and phosphate.

I thought we could try a few combinations here.
Maybe a chemist among us could help.
My plan is to try nickel coins in some boric acid (from the drugstore) and also in water with borax (laundry booster) and apply 1.2v and see.
But then maybe the high voltage spikes from the secondary output of a joule thief would work even better.

I say lets try and then
share our results... all of them ... good results and not so good ones.

jeanna

The best reason to share and to
share all of it even what doesn't work too well,
is that it gives other people ideas.

You may never hear about what or who you have inspired, but share it anyway.

You might have a simple build solution that someone else can incorporate, but if you wait until it is all finished, and working, worse yet until YOU achieve overunity, we all miss out.

Isn't that what a forum like this is for?

stubblefield

Hi everybody,

I made a little video today.
I used some old footage of a test I made 2 years ago.
I had made an inside only- non-galvanic coil in the style of the stubblefield coil, just to test it.
So, I made a dc circuit with just the copper wire going through its traces, and a resistor and a small cd motor.
I added a memory cap in parallel with the 2.45v battery and turned on the battery, then turned it off and watched it while the cap drained.
On the movie timeline later, I timed 13 seconds on and somewhere around 30-32 seconds off.
So the break-even spot is after 13 seconds without the battery .
----
edit:
In a separate video I touch the contact for less than 1 second and the motor runs for 4-5 full seconds.

You can watch the motor continue for yourself if you want to.

My inside batteryrunStubblefield Generator

---
I see the immediate response to Aaron's fresh new stubblefield thread is a lot of stuff about other people's patents.

OK

I have made 12 or 13 of these generators in various styles, the above is one of two I made for inside use.
This is made as much as possible as he describes making the primary, except for the fact that there is no internal galvanic activity going on.

We were unsure what was galvanic, what was magnetic and what was the coil without any other influences. So, I made this coil to subtract out those galvanic and earth-magnetic elements.

Maybe this curious little test will inspire some others to try to make a real one.
He was on to something and it is worthy of our best investigation. (IMHO)

Well I would like to add to this thought some.
A little more than one year ago it was thought that a joule thief only lit one led. (please refer to amigo's thread about the joule thief right here. It is one page long and all pretty much agreed that although cool, there was not much point to research it.)

I have made the very same joule thief light 30 and now 40 leds IN SERIES which is a lot of scaling up.
It took a kind of tenacity that made my son frown when he was little, but it did not take an engineering degree.
In fact, the engineers who have helped me a lot, often helped by trying to discourage me.
Now, if you can light your entire home with a handful of 1.2v or 3 volt batteries with one year's research by a novice smart but un-electrically educated person, what can happen in 2 years?

Lets keep on doing this, guys!
We really are on to something.

There is a lot of impatience and angry energy floating around everywhere on the planet right now.
I personally respect all the people on all the sides of this current argument.

I think getting along is a choice and at the moment we are needing to concentrate a little more than normal on making the effort to get along.
Please keep the nasties to a minimum, or perhaps write them out but decide NOT to post them once they are written.

That said,
I think it would be really nice to have a separate category for those devices that have shown cop>1 for a consolidated list.
I don't care what to call it... ou or cop>1

if I can do with my easy circuit what is utterly impossible without it, then I am happy.

I would like to see all the cop>1 winners in one place, however, so I am making that request to any admin who would like to help with that.
(A locked sticky with a list of links would do well.)

And, please everyone, make the choice to get along and work together.
We must NOT allow ourselves to be divided and to fight with each other.
We are all that we have!

Whatever else happens or doesn't, I am sure glad he is out of prison.

kunkel's pump

Did you ever study the pyramid pump?

In the 50's A hydraulic engineer looking at the side view of the chambers of the pyramid claimed it was a ram pump. His name is kunkel and has a patent (on my other computer) to prove that it works.
The patent office actually made a visit to his home for proof.

The only thing it needed according to Kunkel was a flame to pull the expanded water gas out of gas state and suck the piston up.

Kunkel says the pump uses the atmospheric pressure 2 times and water pressure 1 or 2 times as well in each cycle.

I believe this pump qualifies as a hydraulic/pneumatic device. It is totally free energy, after it is built, but Kunkel said it needed to be big enough to get the forces to start. He said a kitchen table sized replication would not work.

BTW, when the extreme vacuum of the gallery pulls the water molecules apart, they look a lot like HHO, and a spark is all that would be required to keep it going.

I have not studied the link posted below, but I think it is quoting Kunkel's work.
