Actually i see no point in differ static or other electricity is all about capacitances charges and geometry...
The static is only a nice situation to start thinking about to learn it.
The difference between electrostatics and electric current, is that in electrostatic system you get collections of charges or imbalances to star with, while the current is the same method but theres no capacitance but conductance... thus it differ only in the way the potential is maintained.. (ohms law) both leads with electric fields and potentials...
I don't know why but something tells me that is possible to create such field that ionizes the molecules more than the self ionization of the water to create a condition where its like a dead short...
rubbing a plexiglass ruler in your hair and repeating the same experience in the youtube video is possible to make much greater effects on the water dropping... but this is not close to the fields required for what i mentioned before...
the tay hee patent seems to apply only dc so is kind of an electrostatic process too... good to remember stan cited this patent in one of his patents.
In every simulation I have done, once a blocking diode is introduced into a tuned resonant circuit resonance more or less stops. Not only does resonance stop, but the wave forms on both sides of the cell become synchronized in parallel rather than mirrored. Additionally, the peak voltage on the cell goes from as high as 20kV down to about 200V when the blocking diode is in the circuit.
Today I had an inspiration. I tried changing the "blocking diode" in the VIC in my simulator to a zener diode, Forward Voltage @1A at 100mV. In doing this, I was able to get the resonant action to return in the circuit where it was lost with the normal diode. Obviously this is because of the reverse current, but is it possible that the zener diode would block sufficient flow to prevent the circuit from becoming a dead short condition it would otherwise be in without the diode?
I'd love to hear some thoughts/experience on this.

Its equivalent to have a non equalized combination of antiparallel diodes... or combinations of diodes with passive components...
I achieved this pulse doubling like yours many times, with most vics with the coils in the same core, but i'm afraid its not the doubling stan meant ...
The car catalyser burns the CO with OXygen from the air and also burn the hydrocarbons not burned in the process...The geet put it to work...
The reaction i mentioned has a high efficiency this mean that for almost 80% of the CO coming out you will convert a water molecule...if i remember well
The secret behind the geet is the water gas shift reaction with CO to get CO2 and H2 .. it needs a cobalt catalyst and heat... It happens around 400°C... However i believe the reactor must only be a feed back not the petrol source... This you put in the tank. THe CO and unburned hydrocarbons shift reacts with water vapor and get into the engine together with the air and gasoline--
Read about it
This is the way hydrogen is being generated industrially where carbon residues are not a concern, i mean a highly pure hydrogen...
The fracture cell patent mention stans patent and say that his problem is to need to restrict the current since the electrodes are inside the water... The resonant action I believe that means the ions and free electrons going back and forth without touching the electrodes... accelerator... stan even put the equation of the Force = Mass * acceleration in the tech brief...
The problem is that this force vary over time the force the molecule feel vary with distance... Than there is density, mobility ... and others things that turns this frequency calculation impossible..
Don't know my friend i still think his work were related to collisions... just like the fracture cell patent explains...
I think a too big discharge would expense too much energy... not sure if i understood what you mean...
Lindemann explains what he calls a dielectric breakdown... i think is his explanation is meaning less.
The fact that the water dissociates under application of a unipolar field is known the problem is that even this is meaning less because water do this all the time... The thing is the mechanism to stabilize the gas molecules so they can get out of water and not recombine. ...
Meyer system is related to multipacting in my point of view...
we've discussed this extensively thru the threads... you are not thinking wrong only the wrong proportion Actually the sum of all this billions of picometer order size capacitors that determine the dielectric proprieties of water.
