This is a response to Aussieaussieaussie on the Energetic Forum in the discussion "Renaissance November Workshop Convention:"
Don't listen to Milehigh with lightbulbs and such - this just screams scam because how do I know how brightly they were lit?
Please tell me what is your objection to putting a watt meter on the inverter?
Give me an honest answer why you are against taking this measurement and I will leave it be. MIB, NDA whatever.
But if you don't have a good reason then do the bloody test.
I realize you are not prepared to do it MileHighs way, that would take a lot of time and effort. But how can you disagree with a $20 watt meter on the inverter?
"

Aussie, I don't think that you are getting it. I am assuming that the grid-tie inverter can output a clean 120 VAC sine wave to the 100-watt light bulb. Jeff would just have to verify that the AC voltage was correct. Then it's a no-brainer, you can assume that the light bulb load will be 100 watts +/- 10%.
"

What you are saying doesn't make any sense. Once Jeff starts the 25-day test, then he has nothing to do. Just check once a day that the light bulb is lit. This would take almost no effort at all.
Let me outline a possible scenario for you:
We are going to assume that the grid-tie inverter is smart, and won't complain about low battery voltages for a while. But within a few days both battery banks will start to get too low in voltage. Then the smart grid-tie inverter is going to start beeping and flashing lights complaining about the situation. Meanwhile Jeff's swapper algorithm is gong to helplessly swap banks back and forth at the fastest rate his software algorithm will permit. It will also start to beep and flash lights because both battery banks will be too low in voltage.
Within a few days the smart grid-tie inverter will beep incessantly complaining of under-voltage and the smart battery swapper will also be complaining. The 10-coiler will start to slow down. This will last a day or two and then the smart-inverter will refuse to power the light bulb because all of the available battery voltages have dropped below a critical threshold.
So, if the system truly works like Jeff claims it does, it should sail through the 25-day non-stop test and just keep on swapping battery banks back and forth and sucking in free energy from the vacuum.
However, the problem is that for all of Jeff's hard work writing code and designing PCBs, it looks like this "reality check" has never been done. It's analogous to the optics problem that the Hubble Space Telescope had when it was first launched in 1990.
So I predict that if the test is ever done, withing two days you will start hearing under-voltage beeps and the smart grid-tie inverter and smart battery swapper will try to compensate, but it will be a losing battle. Within two more days the grid-tie inverter will refuse to power the light bulb because it will know that no matter what battery bank you give it, there will simply not be enough juice.
You will end up with both banks of batteries drained as far as the smart hardware will let them get drained and no further. The setup will die within four or five days max, and will not run the full 25 days. The reason for this is that the 10-coiler does not "extract extra energy from the vacuum." The 10-coiler is just like any other Bedini motor, and that means it is an energy loss mechanism and there is no "vacuum energy" to be found.
The proof in the pudding would be found by running the 25-day test with a 100-watt incandescent bulb.
