    If you use larger surface areas and bury the metal deeper so that all the of the surface is making contact ... it will increase the voltage dramatically. Also make a 5 gallon bucket of salt water. An entire box of salt to make it strong, and pour around the area where the metal is buried, you will increase the conductivity of the soil.... Also you can drive a nail into a nearby tree and connect to the nail for positive, and the metal buried as negative. The wind blowing through the branches and leaves generates a current down to the roots because of the constant movement of the branches and leaves due to the wind. Increasing the energy output at this point is only a matter of expanding to multiple trees in a parallel manner by doubling and tripling and so on the collectors. ( 1Tree = 1 collector) ... ( 2 trees = 2 collectors) ...

    This is what Niccola Tesla was doing in Cripple Creek, Colorado. Our soil is very rocky, and quartz and granite full, which brings up our piezoelectric field, that's probably why he was here. ALL anybody knows, from seeing it, is Tesla running around putting into the ground what looked like "rods" (no one knows WHAT, a conductive device,) ESPECIALLY after thunderstorms. I am here because I have given myself the goal of not paying my gouging energy company anymore. My goal is do to this in one year, and I am just thrashing around at this point gaining knowledge.

    I remember a friend of mine who was a military contractor talking about tech like this. Basically, he said he saw a prototype prefab building with plates driven into the ground that had power with no need for an electrical grid. This was in Afghanistan back in 2010 or so. He only saw it once and didn't know if it was some proprietary corporate technology or what but it fascinated me.

    I did an art project few years ago with earth batteries but with plant pots. It was working pretty well using acidic soil (consequently with plants requiring this type of ph), copper and zinc rodes and I could gather 5volts, amps were a bit low but adding more "batteries" in serie was much better. I think humidity of the soil, the size, the surface and the distance of the anode and the cathode can make a big difference. Looking forward to try it in nature!

    I’ve experimented with earth currents. The changes in power from various materials indicates at least part of the power generated is electrochemical.
    The depth and composition of the “electrodes”, mineral makeup of the soil, pH, moisture content, and any number of other variables make a difference.
    I used stainless rods to minimize electrochemical reactions.
    There may be additive or cancelling currents as well. After experimenting for days in several locations I never did come up with definitive criteria. Inserting the spike as little as an additional inch or moving it a foot raised or lowered the voltage sometimes arbitrarily. Sometimes the power changed with moisture but not always. Sometimes it went up and sometimes it went down. I think it just depends on what the makeup of the subsurface materials and stratification, as well as the cumulative contact area between the various subsurface materials and the rods is at any given location. Like you did in the video, manipulating the rods produced variations.
    It was frustrating but fun.

    The upper layer of the earth on how dry is really superficial.
    Boring in a 4ft copper rod by a creek as the positive and the stainless steel rod by your house as the negative.
    Let's say that the creek is a hundred yards away from the house.
    Bead a wire from the creek and one by your house.
    The positive line will be inches of touching the negative stainless steel rod.
    Coil up a 1ft tube of copper wire then exit to attach the wires to a pulse motor.
    Place a narrower coiled up tube to fit in the larger one.
    Volt test the coil.

    When looking for telluric currents Use the same material for both the anode and the cathode to isolate out galvonic reaction. You'll need seperation distance to have electrical potential. And you should try placing electrodes in a circle equal distance from a center electrode as youll find one electrode on the circle has the highest voltage, and another will have the lowest voltage with respect to the center electrode. Throughout the day
    You'll find that the direction of current will change.

    To add to the conversation, I had some thing interesting and surprising that happened to me a few years ago.. I am a Ham Radio operator. I had two copper ground rods just out side my ham shack window. One was a 4 foot rod and one was an 8 foot rod. I decided to connect their #8 wires coming into the house together in hopes of an improved ground area and better grounding effects... AS soon as I touched the wires together to bond them there was a loud snap and I got one hell of a shock... I never took this any further but think the two different length ground rods had a different ground potential and in essence a potential difference between them... Any knowledgeable Ham knows that if you have a potential difference you get a voltage and a current flow when they come together. I say forget the copper and the Zinc and work with the different lengths of copper 2 to 1, 3 to 1 length variance and take some measurements to see what is happening here...... Just sharing ideas here for maybe some thing to be developed that will help humanity with cheaper power. The best to all.

    Hi Robert , it's interesting harnessing the earths energy and using it for different things .
    I lived in the mountains near Byron Bay , Australia . I lived in a little hut in the forest . Now I received an injury , a cut over my eye splitting the eye brow erea . I'm not a fan of doctors or hospitals , but lean more to the alternative side of healing :) . I happen to be ,a little psychic . I was wondering what I should do to heal the cut over my eye , when I was inspired to get a tall staff , and a crystal with a deep root . I was guided to carve a hole in the end of the staff and place the crystal root into the end of the staff with the termination of the crystal pointing upwards from the staff . The staff had a v shape , at the base where it connected wth the ground . I was then guided to go into the forest , and find the spring I knew off , as the earth energy flows most strongly through this place through the spring water . A lay line , of earth energy :) .
    So I made the staff , and took it to the spring , and was guided to put the v shaped base of the staff into the earth at the spring , and to direct the current through the staff , and crystal that focuses the current into a beam or lazier like device , and use the force to heal my cut .
    Well , imagen my surprise when I drew the staff toward my cut ,a bit quick , and a strong spark come out of the staff and went up over and zapped me on top of my head . TRUE . :)
    Of course this made me jump back in surprise , and I then proceeded again with a slower manner and alittle more distance between the wound and the crystal . This time I could control it much better and proceeded to energitally sew the wound by moving the current which clearly tingled , back and forth across the wound .
    I share this Experence , to inspire folks to EXPEREMENT for themselfs .
    You can plug your own staff into a spring or lay line , and direct the force into any wound or area that needs healing . Your literally feeding life force , directly into the desired area , by doing this , and this heals you. The crystal condenses and focuses the force for your application :) the wooden staff is a conductor connecting the earth force, life energy , from the lay line to where you point the crystal . :)
    Sounds like the work of a magician , because it is . :) and it really does work ! Enjoy :)
    Magic Happens :)

    Hi, great content by the way - but I was wondering since Aluminium surprisingly seemed to produce 1 full volt as compared to most of the other scrap metals -yielding less output and people toss out their old TV antennas - which are seemingly aluminium tubing - and one commenter below suggested that driving the metal deeper into the ground so that its nearly completely covered - increases the voltage dramatically - then getting hold of as many old discarded TV antennas as possible and using relatively long lengths of that wasted or discarded source of aluminum tubing might actually be worthwhile doing and wiring them in series over an entire backyard might produce a sizeable set up that could even be used for recharging car batteries and everyday household items and tools that use batteries - and all for free - as you could charge tools etc constantly and thus reduce electrical grid power consumption - a big consideration these days with ever increasing mains power costs to householders.

    If it's some kind of telluric current like you suggest in the beginning then why do you need electrodes made of different materials? Surely a current would just flow through even if the electrodes are the same material. The simplest answer is that the Earth battery is determined pretty much completely by the materials used through galvanic action.
    If you did see a voltage and used the same materials you would then need to rule out 60Hz line interaction and even waves produced by RF antennas both producing space waves and ground waves.

    I had read an article years ago about telegraph lines that were generating their own power, enough power that workers had received a good shock even though the power supply was off. The explanation was that it was similar to a river. The river being the electricity wanted to get from point a to point b to achieve equilibrium, but had to follow a tortuous winding path. The telegraph line produced a straight line, like a canal that allowed a less restrictive path. Interestingly when these telegraph lines fell out of favor and had been cut for some period of time the effect was gone. As though the potential had found a different path. There were other examples of this phenomenon. I chalked it all up to an internet story like the 200mpg carburetor. Maybe there was more to it?

      For some reason, this makes sense to me. And I wonder about antenna tuning to improve its effectiveness and efficiency. Tesla invented microwaves which are produced by harmonic electron resonating chambers. We know that antennas can be made to operate at specific frequencies. If everything is vibratory in nature, it suggests something about quantum physics, and how the particles interact. It also occurred to me the power of the atom, what makes the electrons orbit, spinning forever around the nucleus? And to split one is to break the mechanism that has kept it going since creation. >BOOM< like the instant unleashing of gods wrath. Lol 😂

      The atmospheric potential is ± 120V per meter! So if you rise a conductor (insulated!!) 100 metres above the ground, then you'll get 120.000V, but in the nanoAmps.. and to use it you'll need a pulse current multiplier, a spark gap that stores the pulses. The video is aout the galvanic effect in moist soil. It works, but also very small amounts of Amps, so don't expect this energy can power anything else than a small radio or a small LED light...

    Earth battery? It just simple galvanic cell, redox with an anode and cathode. It’s the basis of alkaline batteries and Cathodic protection. Look up the galvanic series chart there is a good one on corrosion pedia for the different materials voltages everyone.
    Your highest voltage difference will be between a magnesium -1.6V high purity anode and a carbon graphite +.2V cathode, it’s a 1.8v difference which is why you got 2V, only problem is that it will only work until the magnesium anode is spent. It is the electro-chemical process that causes corrosion.
    Yes, it also works better with a salt electrolyte otherwise a more conducive electrolyte in the soil around both electrodes. It doesn’t work when the soil is dry, it’s also why you don’t need to use Cathodic protection in frozen ground that never thaws, current just simply cannot flow in frozen ground.
    It is surface area of the anode and cathode and the material of both. You can increase that surface area by digging a deeper and wider hole, place the anode in the middle and backfill with coke breeze, just like a Cathodic protection technician would do.
    Oxidation reaction is the loss of electrons which can happen as rust (exposed to air) when metal loses electrons to oxygen in the air or to an anode in the ground in a galvanic cell.
    Electrons move through the electrical connection from the anode loosing electrons to the cathode making the cathode more negative. At the same time positive ions move towards the cathode in the electrolyte.
    Oxidation, anode, loss of electrons (becoming more positive)
    Reduction, cathode, gain of electrons (becoming more negative)
    The anode is sacrificed and chemically changes through oxidation and slowly disappears protecting the cathode by sacrificially giving it its electrons.
    Telluric currents would be difficult to use, they constantly change, are unpredictable, vary with the variations in the earth and even are effected by the sun.
    Also the current goes in to the earth in gradient shells, just like a ground rod or even lightning dissipating in voltage gradient shells into the earth.
    NACE International rocks, you can get a Corrosion Technician Certification through them. Cool stuff. Not free energy though. 🤣

    Obtaining 4-5 Full Milliamperes with Magnesium, Carbon and water. Two rods place in tap water. Before immersion the magnesium rod, take a hack saw blade or file and texture the length of the rod with deep triangular ridges. Electrons love pointed edges to gather and launch from on metals. The surface area is also increased which also is a natural boost to amperage.

  • @AlwaysBastos
    @AlwaysBastos Год назад

    By using different materials for each electrode you are making an ordinary battery where the metal highest up the electrochemical series will corrode away, producing current and power. You could do the same thing with sea water or lemon juice as electrolyte.
    If you are looking for potential differences in the earth then use the same material so galvanic effects are eliminated.
    And there are circulating currents in the earth, for all sorts of reasons.
