Wings,
very nice connection !! {Air cores}
 
This  Quote always confused me and made my head hurt.
"As Don Smith says "the electricity you pay for is simply a signature copy from the generating plant to move your electrons in your house! They did NOT travel from the power plant." Please remember this because electrons are everywhere already you only have to learn how to move them using volts and when they return to natural place current will flow as an AFTER effect IF required for free. Volts are Joules and they become watts later if a load is applied which allows electrons to flow back to the air or ground or wherever they came from."

Sigh......... I miss "bolt" [good guy!!]

Yes, I always read bolt's posts with great interest. The idea of electrons 'travelling' down a wire may not be quite accurate. Could it be that an electron is 'potentiated' or 'energised' and transfers this activation to its neighbors? With quantum mechanics, we know from experiments that a particle influenced non-locally can synchronously affect another 10 miles distant - and indeed, the observer can apparently influence the outcome of particle collisions in a cloud chamber through expectation alone, something which is not supposed to happen in a purely 'objective' scientific paradigm. Remember that kinetic coffee table-top thing with steel balls on wires, where the two outside balls, like pendulums, knock into the centre balls leaving them stationary? I often wonder whether something like this isn't going on with 'current'. Perhaps there is no physical 'movement' as such, but a holographic transfer of potential going on. Tom Bearden has interesting comments relating to this with the zero-point field.
     Cleve Baxter, who originally worked cross-examining criminal suspects with lie detector instruments, attached his electrodes to philadendron leaves and discovered a new zone of electro-sensitivity in the plant world. He discovered that plants registered 'hurt' electromagnetically - but much to his astonishment, the very thought of damaging a plant by setting one of its leaves on fire was sufficient to cause spikes in his graph monitor.
     This led to experiments using plants as remote burglar alarms. Later, he set up one experiment with an apparatus which dropped live shrimp into boiling water at random intervals. Somehow plants 'detected' the agony of the dying shrimps even under stringent conditions designed to rule out chance anomalies. In his later work, he discovered that plants were even sensitive to the death of live yoghurt culture ingested by (his own) stomach acids.
      It has also been discovered that when two agar cell cultures are placed side by side, and one of them is given a lethal virus, the healthy virus electromagnetically 'registers' the death of the infected culture even though they are seperated by glass.
      What did Baxter infer from this? that there is some means of cellular communication which non-locally connects all sentient life, some form of interactive consciousness.
      If, according to quantum mechanics, individual electrons are nothing more than vortices of vibrating energy, perhaps they too, are intimately connected with every other electron throughout the entire universe, through the principle of non-locality - and perhaps the same principle applies with living organisms, since we are on one level physical, on the next level chemical, on the next level electrochemical, then electrical, then ultimately non-physical vibrational constructs.
      Researcher Andrew Collins did controversial work with a team of psychics, seeing whether he could verify the claims of Trevor James Constable, who took infra-red photographs of what he believed were energetic organisms residing in the ionisphere. Using group meditation, Collins was able to replicate many of the strange dark blobs picked up on Constable's film. He came up with the interesting phrase, 'Non-local psychointeractive processes' to describe what was happening, and recorded these energies with instruments sensitive to infra-red, ultrasound, and background radiation.
      OK, so I digress, but in order to bring attention to the idea that electron 'a' does not necessarily 'travel' to point 'b'.
      In a holographic universe, non-locality is the name of the game.
     
       
       
       

Reading through the Colorado Springs notes I had the distinct impression that Tesla was dealing with two tuned circuits. Was able to operate both and have both store energy as dictated by the Q factor. If or when the two tuned circuits diverged in phase there would naturally be a difference in potential between the grounding points of the separate circuits. As we all know, if there is a difference in potential then current can flow. In this case the current could flow between the two 'grounds', I don't mean the ground we stand on but rather the electrical grounds.

So, two tuned circuits with slightly different periods or operating frequencies. The grounds of the two circuits tied together. Both tuned circuits are then set to vibration by a single input which maybe a fundamental to one of the coils. The other coil should have a greater period or lower resonant frequency than the input signal to allow free resonance. (I believe I remember that correctly or is it the other way around, pushing the pendulum idea.) If they are resonating then there could be enormous potential stored in the circuits. I've heard these potentials are 'hidden' and can not be tapped into directly. The potentials remain in the tuned circuit and can not be directly seen.

Let's now say that both circuits are all charged up to working potentials (ie. input * Q) and both happen to be in phase with each other. Even though the potential at the grounding point could be 10,000 Volts it would be the same for both circuits and there would be no difference between the two.

Now let's say the phase of the two circuits start to diverge, one could be at 10,000 Volts and the other is just now starting to reach 9,000 volts. There would be a difference of 1,000 volts between the two circuits.

If the two circuits reach a point where they are 180 degrees out of phase then there could be a difference of potential of 20,000 Volts! That could be 2Q * input that could be tapped in to.

You would have an AC Voltage flowing through the 'ground' at a frequency equal to the difference of the two resonant circuits.

Would this be the proper way to tap into the hidden energy stored in a tuned circuit?

Very interesting, and it sounds similar to what Tariel Kapanadze was proposing, if it turns out to be legit...

@ Angryscientist

Quite interesting points there developed, but this is a smart trick for humans and not applying to nature i think. Again, with two resonant LCs out of phase and being grounded, the whatever energy gather should be attributed tor resonance at the first place.
Is resonance alone able at making energy? I think not. Its merely a tool of energy harvesting.

And because i am reading Colorado Springs notes also, yes Tesla used tuned circuits, connected via ground destined to be as transmitter-receiver. I think, if you can manage at having energy transfer via ground from one coil to another, the two systems will be 180 degree out of phase. That does not mean anything in energy creation terms..

Concerning Don Smith
..............................

At best Don Smith has managed to hide clues in his published books, lectures and photos. Nothing more. If one follow strictly what the man says IMO he is destined to miserably fail.
Too much inconsistencies, and makeshift theories, that it can be readily understood from someone not expert and having mediocre experience in the field that they DO NOT apply.

" frequency alone, or the flipping of electrons is an energy creator"


@Sirmikey1

The wirelless energy transfer there is attributed to EM radiation that falls at the square of the distance. And as the great Tesla said, that energy is irrecoverably lost (1914 New York interview), whereas the ground onjected energy is preserved.

\The idea of electrons 'travelling' down a wire may not be quite accurate.

Seeing all the "Moths" that have been drawn to the "FLAMES" of the US Patent office [and other incinerators around the world].

It will be nice to see someone "share" without all the "FLAMES" [a paradox].

The resonance Tesla used was not common resonance as we know today. It was parametric resonance !
Whenever you smoked FET it was probably due to energy rise caused by parametric resonance.
It converts time x small energy into shortened time x huge energy, in other words : small initial voltage impulse into large compressed in time power impulse.

That's why I call it exponential resonance.  Yeah,I'm theorist , now your move experimenters
