What i see on the OU thread,i see happening here. Now there are those that are(once again)trying to put Tesla's name on this system
. It is always the same when systems like this come out-->it's related to tesla's work. NO IT'S NOT.
Tesla never had or made claim to any OU system-->the term OU is only used in situations where the extra energy coming into a system is from a yet !unknown! source. Once that source is known,you have two outcome's.
1-the unknown source turns out to be man made(eg,radio waves)which = no free lunch.
Or 2- the source turns out to be provided by nature(eg,sun light,temperature changes) which means a !free! energy source.
The only load Clarence has driven so far is a light bulb-->and that is when his system was grid tied.
He has (so far) only run the system in loop mode separate from the grid for 2 1/2 hours with no load and recorded that the battery
voltage remained fairly steady-->this is the extent of his testing so far. His statement about running loads of household appliances is only what he thinks he will be able to do once more ground rods are in place-->he has NOT run any loads on his system since it has been disconnected from the grid.
Seeing battery voltages remain at a steady or slightly increased voltage when driving very lite loads is nothing out of the ordinary-->even more so with LA or SLA batteries. Even a small temperature rise will see a voltage climb in a SLA battery.\
For those that think this is rubbish,here is a small and simple test for you to try. Take a SLA,place your volt meter on it,and warm it up by either hitting it with a hair dryer for a while,or simply place it in the sun-->you will see the voltage rise.
Seeing a voltage rise in a battery has nothing to do with it's energy capacity.
Here is what you need to see in order to determined wether or not power is being drained from your battery-->and it hasn't failed me yet.
If you disconnect the device from your battery,and the battery voltage rises,then more power was being drawn from your battery than was being returned.If you disconnect the device from your battery,and the battery voltage fall's,then more power was being delivered to your battery than was being consumed. If i see this happen,then i look further into what may be happening within the system.
Never let your schooling get in the way of your education.
