Don Smith Power Demo

[@FigmentVFX]

Great job! Absolutely fantastic. I feel like you're getting very close to a system that could be easy enough to build for others to replicate and also able to scale up to a point that it could start powering decently powerful loads. I'm excited to see where this goes!

[@ftwproject658]

Excellent work Joel. Yes, sounds like a great direction!

Hi,I have been reading a lot of your channel projects and they are very concise and interesting.You share a lot of knowledge and share it freely and seems you have a radio electronic background and have worked many a tried and true projects or have improved on them.Well to let you know I have my interests in free and alternative energy mainly and see that you have found ways to maximize BEMF,spark gap,negative grounding etc., to extract the best energy producing devices in a very positive way. Plus some innovative ideas like your plasma tube cone coils projects Don Smith,Kapanadze Moray etc. Long story short I am 72yr old basement,field engineer type experimenter and would like to say how you have resparked my interests in building again after a long absence due to health interfering any further progress of mine. Thank you for sharing with us!...Tony...aka "Foamaxmore"

P.S.didn"t know plasma tubes,neon tubes give out electromagnetic energy.Is that true?and would they become economically feasible for free energy?

[@wiretrees]

You are hella inspiring Joel...thanks for sharing

Just a related note: Gray's device for collecting energy from spark gaps, neon lights, fluorescent bulbs, and similar sources utilizes a special vacuum tube. Inside this tube, there is a spark gap surrounded by a wire mesh. The mesh acts as capacitor plates. This design allows the mesh to collect the electromagnetic/Electrostatic energy radiating outward from the spark gap.

Awesome! We are going to change the world just give it time.

FANTASTIC RESULTS BROTHER 🎉🎉🎉🚀🚀🎊🎊🎊🎉🎊👍👍👍✅

Exciting! 👍 👏

Hello! This looks promising! Is it possible to replicate with schematic?

[@badboypaulpark]

Hi Joel, thank you for your inspirational videos! I was wondering if the fluorescent tube (or plasma tube) can be replaced with a plasma ball lamp? Pf course it will have to be coiled up and wrapped with aluminum foil to become a capacitor. Also, if using a 12V lead-acid battery to run the HV oscillator, instead of using the mains, what would be your concern?

[@amontuhafeni7502]

Thank you very much my brother, I have been experimenting this device for quite a while, that I came at this effect but couldn't figure out that the system could actually be used to power a load right away. I have been charging capacitors with one wire and another hanging reaching up to 900v -1200v. Through hot wire to ground. Can you also do neon bulb on the antenna to see if it will emprove efficiency. My setup was as follow ----------------------- air | |

Interesting how the motor doesn’t drain the capacitors.

[@mrgoodman6620]

I will admit this is the first ive see of you and im not sure of your goal, but it appears that the supply, in watts is greater than the needs of the motor, in a case like this the remainder of the available watts can easily be used to charge caps?? As i say im not sure what your aiming for but i will look futher in time.

[@FooblyWoobly]

Definitely the case. Don Smith never succeeded in disproving the first law of thermodynamics. If anything it is a fairly efficient but impractical form of conversion after carefully tuning an LC circuit. EDIT: @Joel Lagace, I appreciate the work you put into this. If you still have this setup on your table, what would be interesting to see is a measurement of the output voltage and current drawn by the adapter VS the voltage + current drawn by the motor. I suppose that info would be useful in tuning the circuit anyway. Also one could then calculate how fast the capacitors charge with the remainder of energy in an ideal situation and estimate its efficiency compared to their real world charging rate.

[@kuqicouture4803]

Do you have any issues with components being in close proximity to your coil/tube/resonant field? I ask for consideration of how compact you could make such a set up.

[@ftwproject658]

What is the model of the HV oscillator? Is it for Plasma Ball toy?

[@NetworkMetatron]

I've asked him this before, the answer is yes.

[@NetworkMetatron]

Hopefully you can describe better on how you made that capacitor using aluminum foils, coil, and dielectric tape. Still not clear on the connection wiring. Keep up the good work, sir.
