@poynt excuse me sir this is completely different.you plug in your toaster here and you get a benefit over plugging direct into batteries.that is the claim
Huh  ???

Seems to me the claim is that using the GDS device, you can power say a 1kW load for 3 or so days without "fuel" and without charging the batteries.

My estimate is that 2x 100 Ahr batteries could power a 1kW resistive load (through an inverter) for about 3 hours before the batteries are considered 100% depleted. So a simple test of them showing their unit driving a 1kW resistive load (metered to prove the wattage) for 4 or 5 hours would be a very good start.

I've already been in contact with them. If they respond, I will ask if they are willing to do a demo on camera.

So its a battery efficiency booster of a few hundred percent.this is cool.just like the spanish claim

I'm responding the the post "if it worked it would be everywhere"

You would think that would be true however the point you have to remember is that, even if I or anyone else comes up with the energy answer and it works every time everywhere flawlessly, the only people who will know are the inverter and his neighbors in yelling distance. Because not everyone will be looking at him at that time.

In other words it has to catch on and be marketed and that is a challenge all by itself

Well
I really did not expect them to answer the phone on Sunday [here]
however I was a bit surprised that they have not yet setup the answering machine .


of course i will report all relevant info if they answer the phone tomorrow.


thx
Chet
ps
perhaps they will  comment here if treated respectfully ??

Hi everyone,

thanks for posting this ramset.
Nothing can be found on the net to evaluate if it's real. For all I know this could be fake as there's limited information on their site and from the size of the two batteries inside the device it could easily power the low wattage appliances he plugs in. I can also see inside his box what looks to be an Inverter which takes the DC from batteries and converts it to regular 120v / 240v AC.
The brochure says a 15 day return if you are not satisfied but "as long as the device is like new in working order"... so what if it doesn't work when you receive it?

Their site:

That phone number and address  also show up as a business offering truck storage.

Somebody might want to ask them what the water turns into after the generator extracts energy from it.

You would think there would need to be some sort of piston based engine (like a converted gas engine) for this to run off water.   It doesn't look doable with what is seen in the pics tinman posted.    This is also looking familiar to something that came up before where it turned out the pictures of the generators were just photoshopped pics from a gas based Chinese engine - pics even matched the China warehouse.  That sound familiar to anyone?

Water goes into a tank.
The water supposedly fuels an engine.
What does the water supposedly turn into as it gives up energy to run the engine?

The water tank has no visible connection to anything else in the box.

The box contains ordinary 12V batteries and two off the shelf inverters one of which is clearly wired directly to one of the batteries.

The box has at least one motor that spins.

The box is advertised as containing: 

5kw/10kW/15kW Turbine Generator
AC Voltage - 110/240
Digital Hour Meter
ON / OFF Switch

They do not say that the box has any current or voltage or power indication.

They say silly things like:  "3000 Watts per hour".

Or that a 3000W unit cannot run a single air conditioner, but that a 5000W unit (1.67X capacity) can run three air conditioners.

They do not state consumption rate of the water "fuel".

How much more does anyone need to know about this to know the claims are BS?

Perhaps send out a call to Canadians who are close to Toronto before you light the torches
Mark E.


Maybe summon Captain Zero....[I believe he is close to Toronto]




A 10,000 rpm "Turbine" was mentioned ,it runs 4 days on 4 gallons of water,  the unit in the Vid does not look like anybody is cutting and pasting anything ?


Also They don't seem timid about showing the inside works ?

I would volunteer to go test the unit with my portable 1500 watt heater... but since I'm in Ottawa which is a 4 and half hour drive each way to Toronto and also leaving the country on Saturday November 1st I don't think I'll have time.

Lets see what they say when called on Monday

Probably some sort electric-to- electrolysis-to-electric conversion efficiency thing going on here.

Chet,

Ask them if they are willing to video a 4 hour test powering a metered 1kW load.

I've not yet received a response from them to my email, imagine that.

Sorry Chet, am in the Witless Protection Program, and moved from NB to BC back in 2011.

If anyone buys one and it turns out to be a hoax, I need a new wood box for the garage.

Like others have said, I am smelling Richard Willis here.  The guy in the clip could be somebody that Richard met in some low-life bar.  Richard plus the new guy and between the two of them you probably total a grade 10 education, barely passing remedial grade 9 English.

It's just a "100% money up front" con.  I am tempted to look at the Royal Canadian Mounted Police web site.

Yes it has been used many times known as Solar Collective Amplitude Management. SCAM for short lol
