Measuring Radiant Energy
I was Thinking about how to measure this kind of energy to be able to tune our system to produce more of it or make our batteries absorb more.
I did an experiment lately and it surprized me bit. While I was working with my simple buck boost dc/dc converter (a simple charge pump) I noticed that if I connect a lamp at the end of the output diode while touching the other terminal of the lamp tightly, It would light!! This is in a situation which I have NO connection to the ground! Why should it light? I concluded that this is a different form of electricity which is induced to the lamp through my body. Normal current with not definitey behave like that. I also did not feel anything.
I used many inductors but only one of them behaved that way.
I am certainly sure we have to set some parameters correctly to maximize the Radiant output.
What do you think?
