JOULESTEEM Charging Experiments: The High Power Charger Variant - Post #50
The circuit as illustrated below is a variant of the JOULESTEEM Very Low Voltage Charger as per my last post that can be read here: https://steemit.com/offgrid/@lightingmacsteem/264x8p-lighting-for-everyone-the-steemit-way
Further, this is another offshoot of the JOULESTEEM GI Metal Variant as discussed here: https://steemit.com/offgrid/@lightingmacsteem/5s6vc3-lighting-for-everyone-the-steemit-way
AN IMPROVED CIRCUIT FOR CHARGING BIG CAPACITY BATTERIES
Illustrated below is the circuit of a JOULESTEEM High Power Charger (another variant to the GI Metal grounding approach):
It may be worth explaining as to “how” this new variant is able to charge big-sized batteries:
The output capacitor, as long as the circuit is running will gather about 50 to 70 volts which can be used for any purpose, and for this, we will use it as a voltage pressure to “charge up” huge batteries. SO how do we charge big batteries? The simple answer will be: thru the use of a huge flow of current (1 amps or more)
To be able to achieve a high current flow, even if it is just instantaneous (but should be continuous of course) is to let the output capacitor to do these things: a) control an electronic high capacity high current switch and b) to let its high voltage flow thru a lower voltage, and in this case, the 36 volts capacitor voltage flowing thru the 24 volts battery voltage (2x 12 volts in series); both can be achieved thru the circuit as laid out above
The transistor switches at a rate of about 10x per seconds, which only means that the big batteries are “charged up” with huge currents at exactly the same occurrence; we can clearly see this phenomenon because the LED bulb will light up slightly signifying a “closed” switch thru the transistor, and once this happens the huge current flows from the capacitor thru the 2x series big batteries
I purposely explained these facts in this design so that others who may have good technical backgrounds can improve on such approaches to a somewhat “crude” way of a phenomenon called the CAP DUMP circuit, a fairly famous topic on the backyard experimenters’ forums.
Some arrangements to note that differs from the previous circuit:
The previous circuit using the GI metal grounding can light up LEDs and charge a small capacity 7Ah battery; this time around, the JOULESTEEM High Power Charger is arranged so that it can charge big capacity batteries in series (2x 12 volts 70Ah batteries), this in itself is a very useful way to harness the collected atmospheric voltage as laid out by Nikola Tesla more than a hundred years ago
A 3 watt 220 volts LED bulb is used as the “trigger” mechanism to turn on a second transistor; this will create a CAP dump effect, meaning the stored voltage of the capacitor (about 36 volts everytime the LED lights up temporarily) will be dumped into the big capacity batteries
All other circuitry operations are the same, but this time an output capacitor is utilized as the voltage reservoir only to be dumped suddenly into big capacity batteries; this is in difference to the previous variant wherein the output is utilized to light up an LED and charge a small capacity battery
PRELIMINARY RESULTS AND OBSERVATIONS
High Power Charger Can Mean Huge Batteries For More Useful Offgrid Purposes
As the subtitle goes, the main purpose as to why we even bothered a high power charger arrangement for the JOULESTEEM circuit is so we can utilize big sized batteries which are in turn being charged from very small voltage sources and who knows where other source voltages came from (haha as in atmospheric voltages). Simple yet very useful approaches to power generation the offgrid way isn’t it?
Not only are the preliminary results interesting, but very very unusual indeed for this high power charger variant, I will enumerate:
The circuit is clearly gathering voltage from the atmosphere thru the antenna because the output capacitor will be filled up with up to 50 plus volts at a source voltage of only 4 volts to 5 volts
The source voltage stays at the 4 volts to 5 volts range all the while charging big capacity (70Ah) batteries totalling 24 volts in series
The frequency is fairly high at about 500 Hz to 1Khz at its optimal operation; this indicates a good perfromance
The oscillating transistor is not hot to the touch, rather it is somewhat cold and upon touching with my hand there is a sensation of electrical tingling; I can only deduce this type of electricity is from the atmosphere going into the circuit as explained by lots of good minded people over the years
The charges on the charge batteries are “for real”, this is evident with the fact that if I use the same charge battery as the source battery it is also able to power up the circuit; I have to mention here that I purposely use “half dead” batteries as charge batteries to really see if it can sustain and take a charge from this type of “unknown” electrical pressure; if DEAD batteries can come back to life with this approach I am sure NEW batteries will surely perform much much better, would you agree with me if I say so?
FINAL RESULTS FROM THE PREVIOUS GI VARIANT CIRCUIT RUN
It is also worth noting in this post the final results of the previous circuit as discussed earlier on post #49 wherein the output is used to light up an LED bulb as well as charge up a small capacity battery:
The whole circuit operation is very cold even if the output is charging (in a real sense) a small capacity 7Ah battery and lighting up a 3 watts 220 volt LED bulb, amazing to say the least; a cold operation is very much needed in any circuitry as this not only adds to the better performance and efficiency but it will also render all components to be running “as if not used up”, in my own words and this is just my personal opinion, if one can achieve a cold running circuit, the same circuit will literally “run forever”
The small capacity battery was charged very well and the 3 watts 220 volts LED bulb was lit up very bright, a very amazing achievement from a circuit that is running very cold at 11 volts; if we really need to understand this, an 11 volts voltage source if made to “upscale” into the 50 to 90 volts range needs at least 3 amperes, and, at 3 amperes, would mean a somewhat high current which should have made the transistor hot to the touch which is not what is happening; to be honest, I can not really explain anymore as to where the energy came from, the very clear effect of such “unknown” energy being that: a) the transistor is energized and oscillating, b) the LED bulb is lit at about 45 volts and c) the small capacity battery (7Ah) is charged to its max capacity
There is no shadow of a doubt as far as my observations are concerned that there is a type of electricity that can be collected and be put into good use for small scale offgrid usage in homes; no way that the transistor can be energized by the source battery by its base-to-emitter junction as only the antenna is connected at its base
These three observable and tangible facts alone can shatter any electrical engineering or electronics books that nullifies the occurrence and existence of a Tesla-type atmospheric energy; well, at least for the life of me, a down to earth backyard experimenter.
As I write this blog the JOULESTEEM High Power Charger is slowly but surely charging big capacity batteries (2x 70Ah batteries in series), this same runnning circuitry will be the subject of my next blog results.
Please comment and upvote these JOULESTEEM posts guys, tell everyone about this as this can help in lots of ways to people living in cold and frigid regions of the Earth; your location is of no importance anymore to these types of circuitry, no Sun and Wind is needed here as the atmosphere and the ground beneath us is clearly A GIANT CAPACITOR!!!
I have a very strange feeling we just hit bullseye in this quest for an alternative energy source.
Stay tuned STEEMIANS this is getting very much interesting and just right with the times!!!
