Subject: Re: [Vo]: Lifters
Did they place the box (with lifter inside) on a scale?
The weight should not change if it is ion wind.
I did it with a balance beam and a pointer, and saw nothing significant.
Also did it set up as a torsion arm. Some tests have been done with digital
scales that give odd readings. Things like this must never be tested with
digital scales...they are easily spoofed by nearby fields, especially when
people are using high frequency supplies, like old computer monitors, to
drive the lifters.
