    Any updates on the gas gun Dave?

    Nothing really to show at the moment. School just ended for me so I'll be traveling home on Sunday. I think I have most of what I need to jump in on building the first prototype. I'll be testing a few different designs and circuits. I'll try to make videos

    U should get with Russ at RWG Open Source Research
    Here is his gas gun prototype

     Russ and I have been working together since we started this stuff about teo years ago : )
    He's a good guy!

    Awesome! well dang I've been out of the loop for some years now then it seems...   :P :P

    dont forget, simply hitting a gas with a wavelength is not the issue
    a very short wavelength is required for example, UVC for hydrogen, but not so short if the atom is being subjected to static opposing fields that are helping to open it up for the photons to enter !
    so stan used the red or infrared that were the first commercially produced LEDs at the time he was experimenting

    do research on what LEDs were available in the 1980s and early 90s

    the static fields of high voltage pulses opened up the atoms by stretching them, so a very long RED wavelength could be used to pump up the protons energy level, this in turn helped to push the electrons into an outermost orbit for about half a second, weakening the electrons attachment to the proton
    the high voltage attraction to the polar components did the rest

    the LEDs were effeciancy boosters for ionization of many gases

    Thanks Ali, I read something along those lines on another forum. I haven't been able to find any study's on it but I'm sort of banking on it.

    I've got pretty much everything together except the out tube which needs a slit cut in it. I'm pretty happy with how it's coming together. I'll post some stuff as soon as I'm happy with it. I've also just started on my simplified electron electron circuit. Hopfully it works : )

    here is a picture of what it looks like so far. The bottom section houses the quartz tube with both electrodes inside of it. also the photon source is in the bottom section where it will shine through the quartz tube and through the slit cut in the outer electrode. The top part is where the electron extraction grid is. I will show everything apart once I finish the electrodes. The gauge on top is for a car with a forced induction. It shows both pressure and vacuum. I wont be putting it under pressure but I have a compressor I took of a fridge to create a vacuum.

    ps. thanks everyone for the helpful ideas

    Here is a link for an update video that I made. Almost testing time : )
