There was someone that came onto the fieldlines forum several years ago and was treated badly and left. He had done a few experiments and wanted to discuss this with members here. I made contact with him through a PM and he told me what he had accomplished.
Now, years later, after coming across similar videos, I am getting very interested.
This has everything to do with Nikola Tesla and Wardencliff, and his problems with his greedy investor, J.P.Morgan.
Tesla had found a way to extract positive ions from the atmosphere. Thus, Wardencliff tower was built. This took considerable money to complete. Tesla's idea was to give free electricity to the world. When Morgan learned of this, he immediately ordered the tower dismantled and cut funding to Tesla.
Seems to me that with Morgan spending all that money, that the idea of harnessing electricity from the air is a viable project.
I have come across a company in North Florida that is doing exactly what Tesla described, and this company has just been contracted by NASA to do research on powering the Moon and Mars from the air.
This company is Ion Power Group. I want to visit them, but, it's difficult from where I live. I found a video from someone else that is experimenting with the same idea, and Ion Power Group invited him to their site. He posted the video which confirms this Ion harvesting is viable.
MaryB of this forum offered up some valuable info to me, stating that the capacitor setup she built would self charge from the air, BUT, at a very slow rate. I believe I have a possible solution to get much more usable energy from any such system. Videos on Youtube show several people experimenting with this idea, but, they are all missing one important factor, sufficient NEGATIVE Ions. My research and paying close attention to the Wardencliff video AND the information from the person I first mentioned in this thread, confirm my suspicions.
I will ad links and then, we can start the discussion. Lets keep this civil and with a positive attitude. You all do not have to agree, but, be prepared to back up your comments with facts. A couple of these videos are basic stuff for those that may be interested but not really understanding fundamentals of electricity.
Ion Power Group have broken down their older video into shorter versions as "classes" to explain their project. There are 25 of these videos and I can add them if necessary.
