Attached is a file of an article by a man that tried Bearden's Radiant Battery Charging idea from his latest book. Results were less than he expected, but he did get his hands dirty and learn from the experiment.
Side note: Back in elementary school, I entered a failed experiment into a science fair and win an honarable mention for it. My father help me cleverly word the results to show that experiment had indead shown that the hypothesis was incorrect, and therefore was successful.
Even failed experiments provide results.
My take on the whole thing is to stick with what Tesla actually said and did. Do not follow the advice of using "any" material, such as steel, and 70 foot long wire. Tesla used a polished plate for good reasons. Tesla states in his patent that a battery can be placed across the capacitor instead of a ground connection. I guess the B-B Team didn't read it.
The the B-B Team of "charletans" have poisoned good minds with their crap, like the whole "different kind of energy stored in a capacitor" BS. "Negative energy" - what the hell is that? It's really sad that the B-B Team soils the name of Tesla like they do. Granted Tesla was human, not a God, an as fallable as anyone else.
When you start experimenting, it will help to have resistive voltage dividers that draw very little current, so you can see your hv signals on your scope, but keep in mind that the signal is attenuated, so detail is lost. Values can be calculated on the hyperphysics web site.
