 Read through the whole book. you will all find your answers just be patient,

In all of Tesla's books no OU.

Is true that in all the books no explicit OU, but, he had the tools to obtain this.
If anyone thinks Tesla read and find the keys to the OU that you know will not find, but certainly not a failure, you learn to use their methods of working with electricity that make possible the OU.

Quoted by The Observer in another thread -

Nothing can be OU... OverUnity.
There are however... Unrecognized Sources of Energy (USE).

        If you examine the most Impressive Joule Thief Circuits that light CFLs,
        you will find they have 1 or 2 things in common that are currently Unrecognized Sources of Energy (USE).

1. They have a Ferromagnetic Core of High Magnetic Permeability.
    That is, there are so many rotating Magnetic Dipoles, that it can amplify the Magnetic Field of a Coil by 100,000 times !

2. If there is not a Ferro Core.. the Transformer must be  Resonated to accomplish an impressive feat.
    For beginners, just remember that 2 tuning forks ring louder and longer than 1.

Hope this helps...

Another meaningful post from The Observer,

Yes ... by all means.

I believe few here understand what Magnetic Permeability is and how it works.

         Quite amazing that a piece of super-perma-alloy
                 could AMPLIFY the field of a coil
                                by 1,000,000 times !
                    Without using any extra current.

     The Field of a coil is...  B = (μ0 * μr * N * i) / l
     where μr is the Magnetic Permeability of the material within the solenoid.

     All others are constants for any given coil..
     
     Î¼0 =Permeability of Free Space
     N = number of turns
     i  = current
     l = length

If something is FerroMagnetic it is gunna have a MP in the thousands to millions. (1,000 --> 1,000,000)
ANY OTHER MATERIAL ( 99.9 percent of all materials ) is  ~ 1

A FerroMagnetic Material AMPLIFIES the Magnetic Field of a Coil many times without using any extra energy.

Hope this helps us along the road we are heading.

Been pondering SR and Cosmo's stuff. I'm pretty sure it ain't hard, guys...

It is known that an electric field of sufficient intensity will alter the permeability of ferromagnetic materials. It is being used commercially to create tunable microwave resonators, among other things.

If you can wrap your head around that one piece of information, you have everything you need to build an SR type device.

* E fields cost very little to produce.
* E fields reduce permeability of ferrite.
* Reducing permeability will reduce inductance.
* Reducing inductance in a coil will increase the energy in the coil by 0.5*dL*I².

Meaning: A high strength E field applied to the core of an inductor will cause the inductance to drop. When that field is applied at 2X the resonant frequency of a high Q LC resonator, the current in the LC will geometrically increase. It will only be limited by the magnetic saturation of the core, and although Cosmo said they couldn't get more than about 500W out, that seems very low for a properly designed high frequency system. Not sure what the relaxation time of the medium is, however, and that will define the highest operating frequency. Assuming just a few KHz at a few amps, you can make kilowatts.

I can tell you that it will be a nasty control problem, however. To keep the power stable you have to either remove exactly what is being produced (above a certain threshold), or you have to dynamically lower the Q of the resonator to keep it from running away. High speed closed loop control. Done right, it's magic. Not done right, it won't light at all or will run away.

Based on the above understanding, I would agree with Cosmo that Tiger's design was very close. I do think there are better ways, though, and there was nothing there to keep it stable, which I think was his complaint. I think SR was just using the non-linearity of the light bulb to keep it from running away, but I suspect that is a fairly narrow window. Too much resistance and it won't light. Not enough, and it get's ugly...fast...
