MH is not making claims, you are!
Why not take your challenge and solve it yourself first?
Thats all MH does is make claim after backhanded claim:
"Me: <<< +Robert Murray-Smith What Lasersaber, Tinman, and you need to do is make credible measurements of the capacitance of your home-made supercapacitors. Are you competitive with what is commercially available or not? Is your energy density competitive with what is commercially available or not? I looked at one of Tinman's clips and his claimed Farad capacity and what was shown in the clip was not credible. You three gentlemen need to make open, honest, and credible clips where you precisely measure the capacitance of your capacitors. Are you guys really onto something, or can anybody go onto Digikey and order supercapacitors that outperform your home-brew supercapacitors? We are talking about the difference between anecdotal demonstrations of what the supercapacitors can do vs. getting serious and making real measurements. >>>[/size]RMS deleted comment: <<<...>>>Me: <<<
+Robert Murray-Smith It's not about convincing me, rather it's about convincing yourself that you are onto something. There are several ways to measure the value of a capacitor. I suggest that you research them and then make a clip showing your measurements. Building a capacitor and measuring the value of the capacitor go hand in hand. It does not have to be a scientific paper, just a good informative clip so that your viewers will benefit from it. >>>[/size]RMS deleted comment: <<<...>>>Me: <<<
+Robert Murray-Smith No Robert, it's a perfectly sensible thing to say. You are building a capacitor, and you should make a measurement of your device. It's as plain as day. I am sensing that you might not know how to do it. Just Google it, learn about how to go about it, and then do some experiments. >>>RMS deleted comment: <<<...>>>Me: <<< +Robert Murray-Smith What I know is that I asked you on your channel to make measurements of the capacitance to back up your claims and you flinched there also just like you are flinching here. You made a serious technical mistake with your tap charging of your supercapacitors and you would not admit to it and instead of thanking me for politely pointing out the issue to you, you denied it and subsequently deleted all of my comments. So you seem to have some issues. A Maxwell K2Series BCAP 2000 Farad ultracapacitor is in a can that is 10 cm long x 6 cm in diameter. In one of your clips you claim that you made a home-brew 2000 Farad capacitor that is roughly the size of a credit card. Let us be conservative and say that you are claiming 10X the energy density by volume with your credit card sized capacitor that you claim is 2000 Farads. The onus is on you to prove that is true - that your credit-card-sized capacitor is 2000 Farads because right now I do not believe it. Apparently you are making the assumption that people don't want to see you make measurements to back up your rather fantastic claims on YouTube. I can assure you that many people do indeed want to see you back up your claims with measurements. You attract attention from free energy enthusiasts and that field is rife with people making fake claims and enthusiasts that almost never ask the basic questions that should be asked. 2000 Farads in a form factor roughly the size of a credit card does not smell right to me so I am asking you to back up your claims with credible, honest, and open measurements. Yet you are flinching and trying to be dismissive of my perfectly legitimate request and also trying to use deflection by trying to impugn my character. Why don't you just make measurements and back up your claims like any person building supercapacitors should be happy to do? >>>RMS deleted comment: <<<...>>>Me: <<<
+Robert Murray-Smith You are collapsing under your own weight and your obvious phony pretense - if you were real you would be pleased to make a credible, honest measurement of the capacitance of your devices. >>>His last comment was quite nasty, so presumably afterwards he regained his composure and then deleted all of his comments. I questioned his ability to make the capacitance measurement because in his "tap charging" clip he "tap charges" his sample supercapacitors, which presumably have a maximum voltage of under three volts, by connecting them directly to a bench power supply set to something like 18 volts. One more time, that is an almost insane thing to do if you are supposedly technically competent. I politely told him that he might damage his samples like that and "punch a hole" through them because of the serious potential to over-voltage them and he balked and refused to acknowledge that there could be a problem. This discussion was also deleted shortly afterwards by RMS."
Robert's only goal here is to get people experimenting and doing instead of sitting there typing away at the computer professing that they know it all.
Robert has done some incredible work, What has MH done? Might I suggest looking at MH's postings and you would see the content of those posts... If I have to I will post them all...
MH comes off as an egotistical electrical Theory bible thumper with zero innovative thoughts and only regurgitates equations he finds on the Internet with no real understanding that those theories don't hold well for REAL time electronics. Meaning his ideas are based on theoretical IDEAL Closed situations which those theories are based on. It doesn't matter how close they come they are not real representations of what is really going on, only close approximations, with that closeness having some big gaps. One gap being that all circuits exposed to the environment are not closed systems. In that sense there are too many variables that could creep in and fudge any measurements one desires to measure. This includes that when measuring one alters the outcome just by measuring.
Again RMS's goal is to do and try to get others to do as well. If we are looking for a way to gain in this field we have to have people doing and not just sitting there spouting BS like MH and others do.
It is funny how you made this thread MH just to stir up controversy and spread fallacies that you usually spread. One being the closed theories you spout without one shred of real example that you provide. You even open this thread with a suggestion there is something amiss? Looking for others to join in your quest to put down anything you do not want to understand.
Mr. Smith does not have to put up with that and thats exactly what he does. Why because your aim is not to further understanding of the Real, it is to further the understanding you think you know, which is the IDEAL Theoretical application to unideal situations. Meh
You really have it out for people who are not bound by your Ideal Theories and you are trying to spread that virus to everyone that will listen to you. Some like Mr. Smith are not bitting and are continuing with what their goal is and that in Mr. Smiths case is to get us to open our minds and go outside of your little boxed in world.
Let me give you an example of your tactics:
Every since an elephants birth the old circuses used to put real heavy chains on the youths ankle. This after awhile teaches the youth that no matter what the chain wont let them go beyond a point. When that youth gets to the teens stage the Elephant doesn't even try to go beyond that chains reach. they now can simply tie that elephant up with a rather weak rope. Even though the elephants strength would snap that rope with ease it never attempts to break the rope because it has learned it is futile to do so from it's experience in the past. So for the rest of it's life it "knows" it isn't possible but yet if it tried just once it could be free very easily. This is your goal and these are the tactics we all see you and your ilk use on us. This is applied expertly by you in the form of sly insults and droll regurgitated "Facts" based on your weak IDEAL theories. We know what you are doing and Mr. Smith knows how to handle your kind. Deleted.
