I hope that this sparks interest in other people and also sparks a questioning.

I remember having thoughts as a small child of 4 or 5 years old that the electricity coming through the wires in our house and running the TV and my old radio and record player and lights was from harvesting lightning and power in the air. I used to see large power transmission centers with large metal structures ( one looked like a large chair so we called it ' King Kongs chair ' ) when riding in the car and had the idea since I had no real idea how it all worked. When I got a bit older I found out more of how it really worked. In a Tesla world I might have been right.

Very well presented. You should definitely try it and keep us posted. For the thousands of experiments I’ve done over the many years, I am always amazed at the “not listed” abilities of circuits and components. It does however make me believe the reason for not disclosing these features is sinister so as soon as I’m told “it doesn’t work like that” then I’m usually all over it searching for secrets. Perhaps at the top of the tree is where you’d place the Aluminium plates I use in my video where I try to replicate Tesla’s radiant energy patent, which worked great even though it is sitting at ground level, I’m several weeks away from being able to hoist plates above the ground now. 😢 Keep up the good work.

In my own experiments I can only explain that energy density is important to maintain a current at a voltage for a certain time. Voltage = pressure or the difference between two points. For example if I have a 10 gal tank with 100 PSI of pressure it will provide a tenth the power of 100 gal tank at the same 100 PSI. So we must see voltage as pressure according to a volume between two surfaces of certain volumes. I have thought of the concept you just explained and done it with two parallel versions of a Walton Crofton doubler configuration circuit much like you just showed in your schematic but doubled like the Walton Crofton configuration used as one of the early accelerators only much smaller of course. I can multiply the voltage yet reaching the desired voltage then it needs to switch and release a current at set timing to maintain a certain current at a lower voltage. So let's say I have 1200 volts and I step that down to 12v. Then I can exchange voltage to increase current and if I switch that efficiently at the correct frequency I have a functional source of harvesting some energy for later use for night time charging while solar is not working. My project is still in the works and my biggest obstacles are financial since I budget to pay for my own experiments and ideas since they are so crazy that I don't care to ask for any help. My experiments are only for me to figure out things that bug me with questions to my own mind. So it's just my personal hobby. Your ideas are headed in the same direction as I have been experimenting with also so I found your video very refreshing. The multipliers help with reaching a desired voltage without having to place my plate antenna as high and with a huge surface area and hundreds of pointy needles sticking out of it like something out of a hell raiser's nightmare... lol. I also have combined this with some joule thief type circuits to switch the current. I recently been building a large electrical accumulation station. Like a power storage. Now days they call them solar generators but they are just storage units for energy harvesting from the sun or anything else you can use to charge them. Mine is an experiment in itself because I am using 3 types of storage combinations using graphene Ultracapacitors, Lithium titanate oxide, and Lithium iron phosphate together. Configuration to make them compatible in voltage was a bit challenging because of the different chemistries being uneven for voltage yet I made the adjustments and it is working but that's another story there. Keep experimenting and when I get my crazy gadget up and running fully I will make a video and share it like you have also. Alone we can achieve a certain amount of things but together we can multiply that exponentially.😊

I've come up with a similar design. you must consider that not only does atmospheric DC exist but atmospheric AC is what powers such a diode array. Separately consider your AC subcircuit behavior and your DC subcircuit behavior. If you are trying to multiply atmospheric DC with diodes , it does not work like that. Redesign your circuit to take advantage of atmospheric AC to boost the DC. Faymans works by allowing DC to flow through a wire. Your design should work by controlling AC to store DC. If you look at the basic diode multiplier that you show it has AC source powering it. Vi represented by a sinewave. DC will have no effect on such a circuit.

Seems like we should be using a weather balloon to carry a wire up to a high voltage potential. That would allow all the time needed for testing. A small blimp for lift would leave all the battery power for equipment and propulsion.

You could do what the old timers did and use a little radium chloride paint on the top. And for the first test just use a drone to raise it to see what it will do . instead of a drone a trash bag of hydrogen will work .and stay there with out additional energy. It's the dam lighting strikes. But it seems that there's natural places or spots on the earth where there more inclined to happen.there now using graphene strips to absorb the energy . I thought that a hydrogen bag on a wire that can be let up and down might be more serviceable. They can tell somehow the electrical potential in the air above and fire rockets into it to create a lighting strike that might tell you to drop the line . It's very much worth working on .

You need to collect charge carriers to get any substantial power. So you need to be ripping electrons off of air molecules or access large amounts of ion flow, and there are only so many air molecules up there. So your antenna at the top would have to be a huge array of pointy pins.

What a great idea!

Chapter 9 from Volume 2, wasn't it? Electricity in the Atmosphere. That was one of my favourite books of the series.

absolutely superb demonstration i believe the antenna should be a Dragon Kite the design would make it easy to build the capacitors on the kite segments.

Thank You my Friend , That is a very Interesting idea ⚡🙏⚡

ampere turns. dont try and charge a capacitor, but rather, build a magnetic field (due to miniscule current charging a capacitor) that can be collapsed...

the current across a capacitor can be described using the formula I=C*dV/dT where I is the current or amps(ampere units), C is the capacitance of the capacitor(farad units) and dV/dT is the slope, or derivative for calculus nerds, of the voltage with respect to time. What dV/dT basically says is that the faster the volts change with respect to time the higher the current will be(for example rapdily switching from 0 volts to 100 volts). Maybe if one were to have an antenna connected to a switch that in the "off state" was connected to earth ground and then in the "on state" disconnected from earth ground and connected to a capacitor of some kind. Then simply switching as rapidly as possible should increase the amps available to do useful work. One could potentially take the amps they would like to see as an output and then work backwards to find out how fast they would need to switch to achieve the desired output

​@@crazyham one thing I've been thinking about that I haven't really seen discussed anywhere else is a concept I'm loosely calling "short power". Just as an example, if one sticks a 1 meter long 2mm copper wire into the air, and it isn't connected to ground, then it will have roughly 100 volts and like 50 picoamps. 50 picoamps is not really enough to do basically anything useful with but if one were to short that circuit after it has the 100 volts/50 picoamps then there would be a drop in resistance to whatever the baseline resistance of the wire is, virtually nothing, and therefore, according to ohm's law, a corresponding huge spike in amps. In that specific example of 100 volts/50 picoamps it comes out to an amp spike of roughly 18,000 amps! 18k amps is enough to be extremely dangerous and is useful. In general a "short circuit" is when the resistance drops to zero or near zero and the result is always a corresponding huge spike in amps. One can kind of think of it like there being something blocking a pipe with high pressure water flowing and then it suddenly letting go. Maybe if there were a creative way to store those amps then we might be able to actually do some useful work with atmospheric and or static electricity in general(which is easy to generate in huge voltages but low amps)

@@crypticnomad Absolutely my Friend ⚡🙏⚡ I think the key is to find a method of rapid Switching or Square/Pulse Wave Oscillating (Ideally at resonance) that takes very little power to operate whilst harnessing/Storing or Using the Resulting Currents that could be generating more power than is being used by the excitation source. I do genuinely feel that this can be achieved even though it would appear to defy conservation of energy. I love your thinking my Friend & I hope that you find the Opportunity to Experiment with This. Happy Holidays from Down Under ⚡🙏⚡

​@@crazyham Also, maybe the power could be used to do something useful and negate the losses from switching, like turn a big flywheel. In my last comment I mentioned how shorting the 100 volts/50picoamps results in a huge spike in amps. Then maybe something like the lorentz force could be used to apply torque to spin some flywheel which is then useful for a bunch of different applications. Basically the concept behind magnetohydrodynamic drives and ion thrusters could potentially be used to generate useful work from rapid bursts of high amps. In the lorentz force equation if the angle is right, 90 degrees, then the resulting total force is basically the amps multiplied by the magnetic field strength. In the example of the shorted 100 volts/50 picoamps and using a basic n35 it comes out to about 1500 newtons of force or about 340 lbf(high-end electric sport cars have like 450lbf) which is on par with an electric car motor. Then if that force is applied at the correct point it could be used to create torque to turn a large flywheel.

That sure is a Fascinating Idea. No doubt there are numerous approaches that could be taken & I hope that more people experiment along these lines. I guess small scale system First to prove the over-unity would be a 1st step & then scale up in other ways. I have ideas relating to utilising resonance at hi Q in multiples at different phase angles, like 3 phases 120 degrees apart. I have observed if I Resonate a torus element (Hi Voltage/E field) it provides an impressive back EMF /current which has me considering making a branched type arrangement where I Resonate 3 tori individually each 120 degrees apart but all excited by the same source signal and combining the Back EMF/Currents taking care to correct the Phasing (Adding the 3 phases of current onto one another into a magnified single phase. I have successfully achieved 3 phases from a single HF RF signal Source. (I wish I had a 3 channel Oscilloscope lmfao.) I had to adjoin 2 scopes when I tried those experiments. I look forward to getting back into my Experiments when I am settled in my new home down the track. Keep up the great Creative Mental Work my Friend. I admire your Thinking ⚡🙏⚡

This is a cool concept I wish I new more about high voltage circuits. I am book marking this for sure and circling back when I know more. I'm working on a 420 ft tower I want to implement something like this to capture lightning and store the power in capacitors and batteries. I also seen and experiment the other day were they cut the circuit to the ground and reconnected it repeatedly fast and it increased the voltage by flatting the voltage lines when disconnecting the ground and reconnecting it to re-expand them over the tip. Maybe this is how you can increase potential as well, they did produce 5 to 6 times the voltage. Kinda like shaking that board with the sand?

That's a good question and we do of course need to keep the natural potential. I do think we could utilise the potential in an oscillating manner at resonance and keep in mind that our atmosphere and planet is part of a whole universe of interconnected electric fields.

What about Ben Franklin and Amos (cartoon) ? Sorry , it just came into my mind... I've read something about what you're talking about (not my field - I'm mechanically inclined and educated) in the Patric J Kelly book , in a chapter that is about "static systems" ; I think that Mr Henry Murray was mentioned there (100 years ago , or so) with similar kind of experiments and , apparently , the whole thing worked based on a "electrical valve" (I assume that it was something similar to a glas vacuum tubes , that lived in radios and TV sets , back in a day) , which he tried to patent , without a success , but later his son did it as a part of some medical equipment. If I remember it correctly , it has something to do with certain frequency , which certain mineral resonate with , but better to look it up yourself - it is freely available in PDF format online. There are other aerial sistems described , that supposedly worked , but , in the book , every topic connected with high voltages comes with warnings about high voltages and possible thunder stroke and I've been connected to 380 Volts AC / at 50 Hz - not a pleasant feeling , so I try (as a rule) to avoid anything that is measured in KV , even in mA...

The total charge on the surface of Earth is estimated at around ~500,000 C, and the voltage of the ionosphere ranges between ~150 to 600 kV; assuming the latter to be generous, we can calculate the total energy stored in the system, since that's equal to charge times voltage: 500,000 C * 600 kV = 3 * 10^11 J In other words, a total of ~300 billion joules is stored in the Earth-ionosphere capacitor. The global power consumption is estimated to be ~2 TW on a continuous basis, i.e. 2 trillion joules per second. As should be very obvious from this, we use almost 7 times the amount of energy stored in the entire Earth-ionosphere capacitor every single second. Do you think this entire capacitor would recharge itself every 1/7 of a second? I sincerely hope not for your sake.

Good luck with that, as wind,solar&hydro show. Energy over time performs pretty badly. Hard coal, gas and nuckear must be banned for that.
