Does what -- makes simultaneous voltage and current measurements and determines power output of the battery(s), and the signal generator, and power input to the capacitors, and compares them? I watched a good bit of the video, and skipped around looking for that (it's a bit long IMHO), but I didn't see anything like it. I saw him measuring voltages and I heard him refer to the voltage as being "energy" (which it's not) but I didn't hear anything about amps, watts, or actual power drain. Did I miss the power measurement? Did he actually do it somewhere? I don't think he did, but if he did, what did he find? How did input and output **power** compare? As to his question -- how could such a low input voltage (which he called 'energy', as I recall) produce such a high output voltage -- it's disingenuous. He's got a transformer there, duh. And as to the input -- he's using a heavy duty signal generator in this video, if my eyes do not deceive me. Turn it around, you'll probably find the back is covered with heat sinks. That's a very serious power supply there, and again, he hasn't measured the *current* it's putting out, so he has no idea how much power is being injected into his circuit. Without knowing input power, the rest is just hot air. As I already observed, it's just like running a CF experiment, and claiming excess heat, but never using a calorimeter, and never measuring input electrical power. > > note: he simplified the input circuitry from test 4. > > > Harry > > > __________________________________________________________________ > The new Internet Explorer® 8 - Faster, safer, easier.
