intro: Free Energy
In this instructable I will teach you how to suck energy from this planet called earth, even I don't know exactly how it works, but it works, can't argue with results!
Sorry, no video will be added, where I live it's been snowing and it's producing terrible results. Right before it started snowing it produced a thrid of a volt in a couple of
hours, now that it's snowing and that it's officially winter it's only charging up to 0.03 volts, which is terrible. If you know how to solve this problem then please comment!
The earth and it's atmosphere is basically a giant capacitor, when lightning strikes it discharges it. Tesla's device sucked power from that infinitely charging capacitor to
charge a man made capacitor. By putting an electrode in the air and an electrode in the ground, you tap into these energy source to charge your own capacitor.

Image Notes
1. Tape
2. capacitor
3. 2 alligator clips
4. 8 and a 1/2 by 11 sheet of aluminum foil
5. 8 and a 1/2 by 11 sheet of paper
6. little strip of aluminum foil
step 3: Clarification
This instructable is a proof of concept. If you would like to line the roof of your house with this stuff then you should be smart enough to do it if you're going to attempt it.
This has some advantages and disadvantages over solar cells:
Pros:
Cheaper
Lighter
Easier to Make
Doesn't require sun
It won't really break
Cons:
Doesn't produce as much electricity for the same size "cells"
Image Notes
1. Food saver/cooker, practical joke, and now free energy
Image Notes
1. Expensive somewhat efficient cells that require the sun

step 4: Tape
Tape the foil strip to the big piece of aluminum foil so that it acts as a lead, make sure the aluminum foils are touching.
Image Notes
1. tape!
step 5: Glueing
Glue a piece of aluminum foil to the piece of paper. I'm not sure why this is necessary, but Tesla said so. Tesla said to insulate 1 side, so I insulated it with paper.
Image Notes
1. tape is here if you look really closely
2. paper
3. a lead that is attached to the aluminum foil.
step 6: Clip it
Clip an alligator clip to the aluminum foil and attach the other end to the positive side of your capacitor. Clip the other alligator clip to a ground such as the third prong on a
wall socket or a metal water pipe (make sure it's all metal, not plastic).

step 7: You're done!?!
It may not look like much, but you just created a device that will obtain you free electricity! During my experiment using a 560uF capacitor it took about an hour to get to
.08 volts. Not bad considering the size of the panel and how low it is. Later I got after several hours 1/3 of a volt, exciting!
You can:
Make conductive balloons (should work really well) so that you get both huge surface area and a high altitude. The only reason why I didn't do this was because I didn't
have the resources.
I'm going to be experimenting with aluminum tape and see if it works really effectively outside

This can be achieved by using a household electrical earth, such as a computer case, pin on a socket (be careful) or any plumbing/gas you have, or by
driving a large metal stake (spike) into the ground in some soft soil outside.

To answer your question- I believe this works because water droplets in the air carry a slight charge relative to the ground (which is amplified in
thunderstorms until it sparks to earth), and when they hit the plate the charge they carry is stored in the capacitor. I'm not sure why the plate has to be
insulated on one side- why not try not insulating it and see what effect it has?
Out of interest, have you measured the amount of energy you can extract from this? 0.3V from thin air sounds like a lot, but you have to remember that it is
0.3V of static, not a 0.3V battery.
If your capacitor is 560uF = 0.00056F and the voltage is 0.3V, the energy stored is 0.5CV2 , or 0.5 * 0.00056 * 0.09 = 0.0000252 joules. To put this into
perspective, one billion billion times this much electricity costs about a dollar. Alternatively, this much energy could light up a standard 20 milliamp LED for
about half a millisecond- faster than the blink of an eye.
You are extracting energy from thin air, which is a very cool trick of itself, but this setup is never going to produce practical quantities of energy. You
mentioned a science fair project, though- if you investigated how to make the most of this generator (different positions, orientations, capacitor sizes, weather
conditions etc.) it would make a great science project.

Tesla's Radiant Energy Reciever
I have been able to replicate these results in three different counties where I live so I dont think its just geography.
I would be happy to show this to anyone who wants to know. It would be good to have multiple confirmed replications from different areas in the country.
I have pictures and video, but wont be able to post them until later tonight.
if your interested here is my e-mail.

I was actually going to your videos a while ago to find answers to some of these peoples questions

Why not scale up further? The metal roof of a house or out building. Would that work? What I'm asking is does thicker metal work?
heres a good link that will explain this to you! you will really like video 8 on this site as well!!
Make the sheet much larger, or get it higher up for better results, snow is a diffuser of energy as it is both conductive and evenly distributed so lowers the
electrostatic potential of the air it falls in by creating an impedance from sky to ground, leaking away the charge so you get less....this system when properly
set up would charge indefinately until something gives (or arcs over) in the storage cap.

With a large enough panel, you could light an LED, replacing the capacitor with it. However, a capacitor lets you use a much, much, much smaller panel.
