^^ Come on, the little circuit is awfully simple. I've built dozens of them on a holiday. School kids who know electronics build far more complex stuff. In fact, a currently popular COP>1 system by a guy of renown called John Bedini has a setup called "Simple School Girl", to honor that girl who invented it. I have the project underway myself and I have to shamefully admit that I still haven't been able to envelope everything albeit its only an hour or so from final completed and running state.
An engineer should be able to do a lot better than a school girl imho. ^^ Especially if we're going to be creative or extraordinary. I hope people will agree. 99.99% in this world are consumers who would rather work like a mule and keep paying till they die, never taking a different path out of fear, like a sheep following a herd of sheep. Only a handful out of 6.3 billion dare to abandon that attitude and doubt what they have been told. These are the pioneers and inventors who find things. Like John Bedini. When we're all dead, such names will live on.

There are some new developments related to our off grid self sufficiency of power discussion that I wanted to share.
Do you want your lead acid batteries to last longer, say, indefinitely? So you don't have to buy the battery bank powering your solar system and / or your UPS every other year or so? Do you want dirt cheap, miraculous light that stays on all night without any conventional power source to light your house or even your street? Do you have basic technical know-how? Then you can do it on your own! You can build such a battery that lives indefinitely.
I invite you to join the fun in research related to Lead Alum-Sulfate batteries. (Google / Youtube it please. AKA "Crystal battery" by John Bedini.)
Theory: It is Lead Acid battery in construction albeit the acid of the battery is replaced with a electrolytic mixture of Alum (Ammonium-Aluminum-Sulfate crystals, the alum used in food and not the other types!), water, h2so4 acid in little quantity along with some optional additives. The acid is locked into the alum crystals which deposit and grow upon both the positive and negative lead plates, thusly eliminating the "sulfation" of battery plates as well as the corrosive impact of the acid. Moreover, the gap between the positive and negative plates is somewhat taken up not only by the separator but also by these alum crystals so the chance of a plate buckling and short circuiting a cell naturally is all but eliminated.
However, this battery does not behave like a lead acid battery in its charging and discharging characteristics. It can be discharged all the way down but not to zero volts. Somewhere on the way down from 4 - 2.5 volts the battery stops discharging and keeps producing electricity indefinitely. Thats right. What happens is that the alum crystals and the chemicals remain in a state of chaos and keep building and breaking and keep producing electricity through chemical action.
I feel that in order to utilize this battery's wonderous nature to power a inverter or UPS we'll have to build more than the usual 6 cells along with a little extra arrangement to start using it once it reaches the above mentioned state and that when it is discharged to 12 volts.
Now, I have already built one such battery by adding that mixture to a brand new motorcycle battery and I'm testing it. The "Simple School Girl" monopole mechanical oscillator is also built and it is amazing. So amazing that I don't understand all of it, especially the "cold electricity" part. And that is part of the reason I'm sharing it here with you all. Also for people to step up and undertake these projects for the well being of the human society (and themselves).
So, anyone interested please give a thorough read to this thread and learn directly from the inventor, John Bedini: http://www.energysci...battery-39.html and be sure to check out the amazing videos he makes.
