Findings by video (descriptions and transcripts) [web]
GndNrgEx_1 (JAxUJODVMfY), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAxUJODVMfY
Description: first of a series that "investigates the possibility of extraction of energy from the ground"; says this "has been done before by Thomas Henry Moray in the 1920's". Demonstrates "a bank of 52 white led's can be lit brightly when an earth wire is connected. The power supply registers no change in the current supplied to the circuit whether the load is connected or not." Also: "There is no overunity performance suggested or implied."
GrdNrgEx_2 Circuit & Tuning (GufTw6ECoz4), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GufTw6ECoz4
Source of the project's schematic (the video frame matches the PNG). ASR transcript, paraphrased: - The left half of the circuit is "pretty much" a SEC 15 exciter circuit (ASR text: "sec 15 stiffness circuit", which in context is the SEC-15 exciter of Dr Ronald Stiffler; see the energeticforum notes). The components circled in the video (the alligator-clip pigtail between the two 1N4148s and, by implication, the L2/LED/earth branch) were added by the author. - Construction: Lb 1.4 uH about 20 turns of about 24 gauge wire on a hot-glue stick; L1 8.6 uH loosely wound, about 18 gauge, on an acrylic spool; all coils air-cored ("none of these coils have ferrite"). C1 is a yellow 470 pF capacitor; R1 1 Mohm under the board. - Tuning: the closer the alligator clip is to L2 (26 uH), the greater the supply current drawn when unearthed. Tune by connecting and disconnecting the earth while moving the clip until the current without earth equals the current with earth. - Warning repeated: the RF can destroy a multimeter or oscilloscope, "I know that from personal experience".
GndNrgEx_3 Analysis (6XTDBlYBqfI), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XTDBlYBqfI
Description: "addresses some questions raised on overunity.com". ASR transcript, paraphrased: - Recap: supply current 30 mA with earth connected and LEDs lit, and 30 mA with earth disconnected and LEDs dark. (Supply set 11-13 V on the schematic, so about 0.33-0.39 W input; this arithmetic is the investigator's, not the author's.) - Question tested: is the unearthed circuit dissipating the same power as heat? An infrared thermometer read about -50 near the running circuit because of the RF field, so the author ran the circuit 5 minutes, switched off and measured at once. - Transistor temperature: unearthed 23.7 C vs ambient 22.5 C (+1.2 C); earthed with LEDs lit average 23.2 C (+0.7 C). Author's conclusion: when unearthed "most of the energy is being consumed generating radio frequency rather than heat", and 52 LEDs were lit for a 0.7 C rise. Next video promised to look at how much light is produced.
GrnNrgEx_5 Path to Ground (7LkbYBLM4Dc), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LkbYBLM4Dc
Description: investigates aspects of connecting the circuit to the ground; "suggests a real ground connection is important if higher output levels are to be obtained". Thumbnail text: "First insert the diode into the connection to ground". GndNrgEx_10 description refers back to it: "ground energy appears to stop when it encounters a IN4148 diode". Transcript not read.
GndNrgEx_9 (K0YO3o4Tu9o), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0YO3o4Tu9o (2016-09-05)
Description: "I believe the extraction of energy from the ground was what Thomas Henry Moray was doing in the 1920's." 52 white LEDs lit brightly with an earth wire; "each led is only drawing 4mW from a battery despite being brightly lit!!" (52 x 4 mW = 0.21 W total; investigator's arithmetic). Components rest on a fibreglass office table, "partly responsible for the flow of magnetic - dielectric interaction and the behaviour of the leds". Powered by a 12 V 42 Ah sealed lead-acid battery (off camera); "should not be powered by a mains power supply". Thumbnail shows two meters reading 12.00 and 0.000 (the second meter's quantity is not stated). No captions.
GndNrgEx_10 Asymmetrical Pathways LED Array (Bhj8N7_stZY), 2018-03-29
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bhj8N7_stZY. Shows the LED array circuit diagram. The author's principle in his own words: "The pathways presented to RF driver and the ground are very different in properties"; ground energy stops at a 1N4148, "So the ground energy response to the RF pulses favours the LED array." Test suggestion: hold the array near the field of a Slayer exciter. Key statement of mechanism: "A small energy input from the driver produces a much larger response from the ground electrons - which lights the LED array." Supply current again said to be unchanged with or without load.
One Wire Energy 10 Metres Outdoors (xKaYttqzHcQ), 2016-08-02
Transmission over 10 m of single 30 gauge wire outdoors; driver not earthed, receiver LED load "much greater when it is earthed"; "The power consumption in the driver does not alter with the earth connection." Refers to a later experiment to address doubts that radio transmission is involved.
One Wire Energy Full Metal Jacket (kQK7yOgGKbI), 2016-08-04
Slayer exciter inside a metal enclosure ("full metal jacket") still lights LEDs through a single wire when earthed (the author's answer to the radio-transmission objection). Author frames it as "Radiant Energy or Longitudinal wave?" and "Tesla knew how to ... transmit energy using longitudinal waves and less wire!"
HV / arc videos (2015-08)
- RSVIqUlAdYY: flyback HV powers a 25 W 240 V bulb via "water capacitor, double arc and ground wire"; "no overunity performance suggested"; described as a replication of another video (link in description, not followed).
- Jqptq7A9cGU: "radiant green DC spark" causes a "felt shockwave" from a light bulb; partially lights two 25 W 240 V bulbs.
- 6iiWRKke-qM: copper foil attracted to "electro-radiant emissions" in a bulb under DC arcing; "I think Nikola Tesla did this first".
- These use Tesla / E. V. Gray "electro-radiant" vocabulary (the "electro-radiant" term association with Gray is [memory, medium]).
jKfB3p2UbtY Toroidless Joule Thief Replication
Replicates a circuit "published by Sanjev21"; peripheral.
Comments on GufTw6ECoz4 (12 comments; two read)
- One commenter (2018) attributes a pyramidal quartz crystal assembly to "Henry Murry" (a garbled form of T. Henry Moray) and tells a story of a lab fire and a body in a ditch; this is the commenter's claim, not checked, and does not match the Moray record as known [memory, low].
- Another: "You didn't show the circuit working." (1 reply, not read.)
Bearing on the claims
- Claim 1 (energy from earth): the author's own framing is a ground-energy hypothesis in the line of T. Henry Moray; he explicitly says "no overunity performance is suggested or implied" in most descriptions, while GndNrgEx_9/10 say the LEDs draw only 4 mW each and that a small driver input produces a "much larger response from the ground electrons".
- Claim 2 (circuit): confirmed and extended: base is Stiffler's SEC-15 exciter; coil construction details; air cores.
- Claim 3 (tuning to equal current): stated as 30 mA earthed and unearthed; the tuning procedure adjusts the unearthed current up to match, so equal input current is the tuned condition, not an independent observation. The author's own heat test (transistor +1.2 C vs +0.7 C) is his evidence that the unearthed power goes into RF.
- Claim 4 (RF disturbs meters): confirmed by the author's IR thermometer reading -50.
- Recorded measurement method: supply current from bench supply meter / battery meter only; no RF power, no LED light output measurement found in what was read.
