Well, folks, I thought I would share my problem-- I have a conceptual design for a more efficient internal combustion engine. It's not a radical departure from...
Hi all, I just heard that Al Rutan (methaneman) died. He was a wonderful member of the alternative energy community. Over the past year he emailed me several...
Hi all, This is really exciting stuff. University of Toronto research into quantum dot nanotechnology sprayable solar cells.Especially promising is the...
2005 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Nanomix Inc., a leading nanotechnology company which is commercializing a line of nanoelectronic sensors for industrial and...
Hi all, does anyone know how many watts each one of those mini christmas lights takes. I don't mean the new LED versions but the regular mini lights. I am...
It should be less than a watt, the bulb may be rated at more than 1 watt rated at the socket voltage 110 or 220 VAC, but being strung on series will not glow...
Hi all, I have always been fascinated with these types of devices. This is very interesting reading and has great potential for heating/cooling and powering...
... +++++++ But the resistance might change when the filament gets up to temp, so an ohmmeter reading may not be accurate. Better yet, rig an ammeter in line...
There is a neat little gadget you plug into an outlet and them plug your string of lights (or anything else up to I think 1500 watts) and it will tell you the...
Ahh, the kill-a-watt. I used to have one years ago when they first came out. Cost about $120. back then. Unfortunately a "friend" borrowed it and then moved so...
Some years back, I read that lights for mobil homes, operating on battery power, were high-frequency devices. My understanding was that high frequency only...
TRUE. high freq driven current is useless for LEDs. as they will appear flat as the current passes through the LEDs. MedB Arcologic@... wrote: Some years...
at the moment am looking for a means how to derive current/voltage values a certain magnet will produce. and how is a graphite magnet gauss value derived to...
Hi all, My hunch was right, you can power leds with frequency drive. A circuit was described in the free-energy news group. See Subject: Re: LED headlicht...
Flourescent light tue lights up without any electrical connection connection, when brought atop a mhz transmitter tower. Typically, transmission towers esp....
Hi all, I find it surprising that the 360 members of this group haven't had much to say lately. I work 7/7 on my main site at http://www.alternate-energy.net...
Energy is the biggest subject there is, me thinks. Nothing happens without energy of some kind. Alternative energy encompasses almost everything. How to make...
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has a schematic for the forever flashlight. Basically it is a magnet within a coil that charges a capacitor when shook up. I...
how about ifyou use the principle and the mechanics of the automatic (self-winding wrist watch. with an copper coil as the pendulum (or what is it called?)...
Hi Med, I was actually thinking on using some type of pendulum system as well but I have to make the circuit first. I have built some small voltage doublers...
Sorry, am more into drawings and plans. I'd like to complie all info into a folder but seem to have no time for that since I have to attend my building...
Hello from Bolivia, Hey maybe someone would like to take a look at our Watermotor turbine. It is the only turbine with an on/off power control switch so it can...
Kyoto sets up a legally binding agreement between the countries that have signed on. (140) This obliges U.S corps to upgrade their operations to conform to the...
Now, my thoughts on the subject-- Wind power has a lot going for it as things are, but it could be much better with distributed small generators, like up to...
Hi, folks, I really like this article, just saw it today. http://www.csicop.org/si/2005-01/energy.html Here's the intro: /Ernie Rogers Critical Thinking About...
we would gain the most benifet from combined heat and power (CHP), any place that uses or needs a lot of hot water or comfort heat would be a canadate, I could...
Daron, Start a CoGen business do it. If the idea works you'll make money. However you might like to consider that this is not an original idea and there are a ...
