This instructable is my third instructable and it is about making free energy generators.

Now, if you are some of those stubborn people that don't think this is true or that it works, GO LOOK T !O"#T$%NG #L!# because this is not for you. !o a little background on the guy % used for a picture& his name is Nikola Tesla, he was born on 'uly () (*+,, he died on 'anuary - (./0, he was born in the ustrian empire. Nikola was also the world's leading scientist and continues to be today despite what anyone else says. 1nfortunately, after he died, the big electricity companies almost wiped Nikola from history because of his free electricity in2entions. %f you want to know more, read the book& Tesla a man out of time.

Step 1: Components and parts

The main components are listed below, take note that the kind of the specific components are listed in the assembly part. 3omponents& 4electrolytic capacitors 4ceramic capacitors 4diodes 4antenna5 4ground connection 6ou can assemble these generators on a bread board or solder the pieces. 5the construction of the antenna is the ne7t step, though it has to be built in a certain way

Step 2: Antenna making

The picture is pretty self e7planatory. Get a piece of cardboard that is around ( foot by ( foot. Get a piece of aluminum foil the si8e of your cardboard s9uare. Then staple each corner of the foil to the board using staples. %f you are like me and don't like going outside or don't ha2e the time to mount the antenna, then hang it in a room somewhere and connect it to a generator. %f you ha2e the time and like going outside, put it on a pole at least () feet high off the ground. lso, the pole that holds up the antenna has to be made of some insulating material, like a :;3 pipe. <efer to the second picture if you need help.

Step 3: Grounding connection

The grounding connection is fairly easy to make. There are two ways to do it. Number one& =the indoor way> get a long wire, strip off one inch from both sides, half way unscrew the screw on the outlet co2er, wrap one of the stripped ends around the screw once so it makes a flat coil, screw the screw back in. This is the way % did it, e7cept % used my room's light switch co2er. The second way& =the outdoor way> get a long, thin metal pole about ? feet long and stick it almost all the way into the ground, if you need to then use a hammer to do it, then connect a one end of a stripped wire to the little bit sticking out of the ground. That is the way % did not use because % don't like going outside. !o there are two methods to making a grounding connection, but % recommend using the first way because the co2er is professionally grounded. 'ust @O NOT put the wire in any of the outlet holes or you might die. % take no responsibility in any inAury or death or damage that might occur if you were to stupid to read the pre2ious sentence.

Step 4: Energy device #1

This is probably the most basic free energy generator you could make. % recommend this to beginners. Bor the capacitor, % recommend any capacitance from ())uf to as high as you can get it. C <N%NG, this is a bad generator to build since % don't think it can make more that ( 2olt. 'ust follow the schematic to build it. % tested it and it makes a little less than .( 2olts and it makes less than .( milliamps. 'ust to tell you, the charging time for the test was + minutes. % used a ())uf, ?+ 2olt cap. % gi2e credit to guyfrom-up for this generator.

Step 5: Energy device #2

This is probably the second most basic free energy generator you could make. % recommend this to beginners with more electrical knowledge. Bor the capacitor, % recommend any capacitance from ())uf to as high as you can get it. C <N%NG, this is one of the worst generators you can build, and it's worse than the first one,and % don't think it can make more that ( 2olt either. 'ust follow the schematic to build it. % tested it and it makes almost ) 2olts and it makes way less than .( milliamps. 'ust to tell you, the charging time for the test was + minutes. % used a ())uf, ?+ 2olt cap and a silicone diode.

Step 6: Energy device #3

This is probably the other second most basic free energy generator you could make. % recommend this to beginners with electrical knowledge. Bor the capacitor, % recommend any capacitance from ())uf to as high as you can get it. C <N%NG, this is the other worst generator you can build, and it's worse than the first one,and % don't think it can make more that ( 2olt either. 'ust follow the schematic to build it. % tested it and it makes almost ) 2olts, like D?, and it makes way less than .( milliamps. 'ust to tell you, the charging time for the test was + minutes. % used a ())uf, ?+ 2olt cap and two silicone diodes.

Step : Energy device #4

This is not as basic as the first three. % recommend this to beginning intermediates. Bor the capacitor, % recommend any thing from ())uf to as high as you can get it. This is the best generator in this instructable. 'ust follow the schematic to build it. % tested it and it makes ? bursts of ).* 2olts and ? bursts of ).0 milliamps. That happened because you ha2e to discharge the capacitors indi2idually. 'ust to tell you, the charging time for the test was + minutes. This is my fa2orite one because it makes more electricity in + minutes than the ne7t one. %t gi2es you two bursts, so you could flash an L#@ with it twice. % used two ())uf, ?+ 2olt caps and two silicone diodes. To get one blast of more electricity from this, connect a wire to the negati2e that %'m talking about, and a wire to the positi2e that %'m talking about. Then you will get one blast of more power if you get the polarity right. % gi2e the credit of this generator to itsthatsguy since % saw this on his instructable.

Step !: Energy device #5

This is not as basic as the pre2ious ones. % recommend this to intermediates. Bor the capacitor, % recommend any capacitance from ())uf to as high as you can get it. This is the second best generator to build since it is one of the most efficient. 'ust follow the schematic to build it. % tested it and it makes like .- 2olts and it makes like ./ milliamps =higher than the other ones>. 'ust to tell you, the charging time for the test was + minutes. This is my other fa2orite one because it almost makes the most electricity, and % designed itE the funny thing is that % designed it and then found the e7act designs on the internet. % also used this to charge up a ?./ 2olt battery o2ernight, and it charged up to ? 2olts, so it's really good. % used a ())uf, ?+ 2olt cap and four silicone diodes.

Step ": Energy device #6

This is an ad2anced free energy generator that you could make. % recommend this for the ad2anced. Bor the electrolytic capacitors, use two ())uf, +)2olt caps. Bor the ceramic capacitors, use two ).?uf, +)2olt caps. Bor the diodes, use four (N0/ germanium diodes. "y results weren't good because % impro2ised and used two ())uf, ?+2olt electrolytic capsE two ).?uf, +)2olt ceramic caps, four silicone diodes, and a ground connection instead of an antenna. fter + minutes of testing, % got less than ).( 2olt and less than ).( milliamps. !o this shows that you ha2e to use the right components. The place were % saw the schematics for this said that it produces like ? 2olts. This also shows that energy de2ice D( and D+ are the best.

Step 1#: $%eory o& operation

This is probably the most colorful part of the instructable. !o % will be e7plaining my theory of how it works, and if you want, you can time tra2el and ask Nikola if my theory is right. !o we will be using energy de2ice D +. Let's imagine that the sky is mainly positi2ely charged, but has some bits of negati2e in itE and the ground is mainly negati2ely charged, but has some bits of positi2e in it. !o the antenna collects what's in the sky, and the grounding connection collects what's in the ground. !o as shown in the second picture, The collected charges are separated by the diodes and put into the capacitor to store. %f you ha2e both antenna and ground, it charges faster than if you only use one. !o where do the charges come from you might ask. The charges come from the sun. s shown in the third picture, the sun has a corona which is a white, electrically charged layer around the sun. !o as it e7tends into space, it gradually thins out into a lot of streams of electrically charged particles called solar wind. Now our earth has a magnetic field which deflects almost all of the solar wind, but e7tremely small amounts of it pass through the magnetic shield. That makes the charges as shown in picture one. !ince the sky gets charged, the ground also gets charged oppositely by laws of physics. The generators separate the charges and put them to good use by charging a capacitor.

Step 11: Coo' mods

!o there are some cool modifications and stuff that you could do with the generators you Aust created. One is put one of the generators inside a . 2olt battery case to make a self recharging battery. nother is to short out the capacitor with an L#@ pro2iding that the 2oltage is high enough. nother is to charge a rechargeable battery instead of a capacitor. :ost a comment for a cool mod or a 9uestion or a generator that % don't ha2e posted.

'esusGeek* months ago<eply better name for this is energy con2erter, from energy in the atmosphere into electric energy.

ammush? years ago<eply gud work.. but not enough for our home supplies.. can u tell me the de2ice which can produce large amount of electricity for our home.

$iBi"an ammush? years ago<eply Take a building block of a bridge rectifier.:lace high 2oltage capacitors to the ac input terminals,these will also be your collector inputs .!tart with a group of 0.Tesla lo2ed to use multiples of 0. clue to the power of

0 is 04,4. (4?40 That's all % ha2e to say about that right now other than three is a fundamental number. On the first bridge F output will go to your load capacitor. % do not recommend using electrolytic capacitors at all.They Aust don't ha2e enough electrostatic capabilities. now connect 4 bridge( to F bridge? and 4 bridge? to F bridge0 4 bridge 0 will be your 4 load connection unless you use more blocks,in that case 4bridge 0 will connect to module? F bridge( and so on. <emember to place isolation capacitors on all ac in bridges and parallel connect those caps. 6ou now ha2e a circuit of 0 series connected bridge rectifiers that F comes from bridge ( and 4 comes from bridge 0 6ou can continue to series connect these building blocks in any 9uantity you choose.The first bridge will always be F output and the last will always be 4 output. lthough % ha2e not done this, it is said that about ?)) of these modules will power a house pro2iding your collector plate is large enough and your dedicated ground is proper.That's *)) indi2idual diodes and /)) indi2idual isolation capacitors plus a load bank of capacitors or batteries, and as large a collector plate as possible,don't forget about the earth ground it's a key element to success. "y plan is to incorporate this into a multi floor=at least ? story>building with an insulated metal roof. % ha2e a circuit board %'m de2eloping and maybe one day % will post it.

techno guy =author> ammush? years ago<eply !orry, but this is small scale only.

Ablanchard techno guy? years ago<eply Jtechno guy 4Aust because you limit yourself why should we Jhifiman4 awsome my thoughts e7act

sdfgeoff? years ago<eply "ind %f ask, but how does adding diodes help anythingH @iodes themsel2es ha2e a resistance =2ery small, but they do> so they would drop the 2oltage slightly. !ince the capacitor is polar =only works one way around>, then surely you don't need them. To me this is Aust D( but with two unnecessary components. %f there is someone out there with more electrical knowledge than me, please correct me here.

lbino"oose0)* sdfgeoff(( months ago<eply the goal of the diodes is to block one half of the radio wa2es in the air so they can charge the capacitor

freethetech? years ago<eply 3orrect me if %'m wrong, but isn't this the circuit =minus the antenna> used to con2ert 3 to @3H ..K sure it is.

techno guy =author> freethetech? years ago<eply This is the circuit used to do that, % made the prototype using the con2erter from a wall adapter, it really works for this.

Aduffy+/ techno guy( year ago<eply !oooooo, you didn't design it. 6ou literally Aust took off the transformer and called it your design. @on't say that. !econd of all,my grandmother could make this, its something someone with 8ero e7perience can understand. Oh, also, power companies @%@N'T try to wipe Tesla, as there is NO !13$ T$%NG ! B<## =significant> #N#<G6G This uses radio, micro, and other wa2es that are in the air from cell phones, wi4fi, and other wireless communications to power it. %t's free to you, not to the planet though, it still re9uires power generation elsewhere. %t's also not significant. %t's like saying that the power companies are trying to discredit the e7istence of humans becasue of the tiny ammout of elecrtical potential generated by your body.

electronic8 Aduffy+/(( months ago<eply %f it is so that the energy that this har2ests is from radio wa2es, how did Tesla use this system before the radio was e2en widely usedHHH

freethetech electronic8(( months ago<eply <adio wa2es are naturally emitted. lso, note the abo2e poster's other sources he mentioned.

Aduffy+/ freethetech(( months ago<eply :lus, e2en those still aren't technically free energy, it's free4 to4 you4 energy, and finially, his main thing in wireless power was using fre9uency4matched tesla coils to transmit the power. These would still re9uire power, it would Aust be wireless.

electronic8 Aduffy+/(( months ago<eply 6es, it still is fun to do Aust as an e7periment =not to create any significant power though>.

electronic8 freethetech(( months ago<eply Thanks for clarifying.

$iBi"an freethetech? years ago<eply

6es it's called a bridge rectifier.

freethetech $iBi"an? years ago<eply Thats what % thought. %t seemed fimiliar.

Keith le7ander(? months ago<eply Cell done for ha2ing the insight and curiousity to try this out. 1nfortunately, you ha2e confused two different effects here and both are well understood by science. The first is that the earth is surrounded by the ionosphere which is a highly charged shell of atoms and molecules surrounding the earthE it starts at a height of around +)miles and is at a potential of around 0)))));. There ha2e been proposals that power could be tapped from this. %n fact, what you ha2e created is a working but inefficient self powered radio recei2er which in the (.0)s they would ha2e called a crystal set. %n effect you ha2e rectified the many signals in the radio en2ironment around your antenna and con2erted it into the dc current that charged your capacitor. The s9uare arrangement of diodes that you'2e drawn is called a bridge rectifier and is a commonly a2ailable component. %f you want to make your circuit more efficient then % suggest that you look at using schottky diodes and a low leakage capacitor otherwise charging your capacitor is like trying to fill a bucket with a hole in it. Thanks for your work and good luck with your e7periments and your future.

sdfgeoff? years ago<eply !ince the sky gets charged, the ground also gets charged oppositely by laws of physics. 1m, e7plain this one to me. %f the air gets positi2ely charged, then surely the ground also gets positi2ely charged as there is a net decrease in electrons. Chat you may be thinking of is if you ha2e a closed system& %f you mo2e the electrons to one side, then that will create a positi2e charge on one side, and a negati2e one on the other. This doesn't apply here as there is an addition of the solar wind =not a closed system>, which by the way, according to wikipedia, has both protons and electrons, and thus no charge. %'m not meaning to pick holes in your ible =ok, maybe % am>, but would like to point these out, and that % don't agree with this. % am not a physicist, so % may be wrong but& "y threory& The facts& F2e charge in the atmosphere 42e charge in the ground =% agree with you here, % cannot deny it, because it works> The !peculation& The charge difference has to come from somewhere, and you suggested solar wind. % suggest a system similar to thunderstorms& Briction has the ability to knock electrons around. The direction of where the electrons go is determined by the elements electronegati2ity. ir, made up mostly of nitrogen, with a high electronegati2ity 2alue of 0.)),, and the ground =most other elements, like metals and such making up the ground> would ha2e a much lower o2erall 2alue. Chat all that means is that when the air hits the ground =wind etc> some electrons are knocked out of the air, gi2ing it a positi2e charge, and the ground a negati2e charge.

nyone got any other theoriesH

iceng sdfgeoff( year ago<eply F(

4ground

Aduffy+/ sdfgeoff( year ago<eply 6es, that its radioIother electromagnetic wa2es below the %< spectrum. ll electronics ha2e a tiny signature, big things like power lines and cell towers much higher. %t works because it acts like a cell phoneIradioIwhate2er antenna. They take a teeny4tiny ammount of power at a specific fre9uency and amplify it, this takes a teeny bit of power from a lot of fre9uencies, and stores it so o2er time it charges a capacitor. That's why you get so little. :lus, #":s from the sun, other stars, and the earths magnetic field may also play a part.
