    Hi Aaron, i see, you were questioning my choice of capacitor size.
    I had them and i'm doing manual pulse tests, so big is good in this case.
    Well it seems to be working, i can't get the batteries voltage to get any lower, as of yet, so i will continue to manually pulse for awhile, to be sure.
    So far, this is showing that the load is not using up the energy in the battery.
    It's only when we loop the load back upon itself and the input battery, that we start to kill off the battery (dipole).

      Another Update

      Hi folks, here is another update.
      One of the bulbs blew, the one in-line with the series capacitor dump to battery.
      It may have blown, because i over voltaged it a few times previously and may have been compromised by that.
      I then replaced the bulb with a 12 volt, red yard bulb equivalent, however, i noticed an imbalance between the charging voltage peak, relative to how far the battery drops in voltage when charging the parallel capacitor load.
      So, i placed another bulb in parallel with the other bulb, to try and balance things out.
      It seems to have worked, where previously, when i replaced the series dump load with just the one 12 volt bulb, i then noticed the battery starting to drop in voltage a little bit.
      So it seems, that the load, in-line with the series capacitor dump, back to the battery, needs to be tuned to charge the battery up to an equal voltage or greater, compared to how far the battery then drops, when charging the capacitors in parallel.
      And when the series capacitor dump, shows a tenth or so more charging peak volts on battery, the battery standing voltage, seems to rise a bit, which may explain why the battery rest voltage increased slightly at the start of testing.
      To simplify, the battery drops say .05 volts when charging the capacitors in parallel and some time is allowed for the voltage to stabilize in caps.
      Then, when dumping the series capacitors across battery through bulb load, .05 volts gain to sometimes .06 volts gain, can be seen peaking on battery.
      This means the circuit is tuned properly and will maintain its standing voltage, for a long time.

        Hi Sky!
        I have replicate your circuit yesterday but i have to say i have no good result... my batt slowly drop... The cap i use was little value (3500 uf) mabe this is the cause...?

        I have not try it for a long time... i am really admire your patience for manually switching it!

        the rest of the evening i play with what Turion have share...

        I may try with higher value cap and automotic way for switching...

        Thank you for keeping sharing your result. It is apreciate!

        Does it is your birthday today?? If so; HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

          Hi wistiti, what battery are you using.
          Are you using a volt meter to observe how far the battery voltage drops compared to how much it rises, this should be equal for best results i think.
          peace love light
          No not my birthday, just thought it was cute graphic, hehe.

            Hi sky!
            My battery was a big 12v deepcycle. Yes i use a volt meter for monitoring the voltage of my batt... I can see the difference when charging vs discharging the cap but after mabe 15 min of switching i let it rest and i note a drop in voltage compare when it start... I think it must be use with higer value cap... like you use.
            ciao!

              Hi wistiti, ok, i guess it's possible the capacitor size matters, especially if it's a big battery.
              I started noticing a slight loss in my batteries voltage, it started to do that, ever since that bulb blew out.
              And since my experiment was interrupted by me having to use the battery to power that inverter, when the power went out.
              I am topping up the battery to full charge and will start testing again, after the battery voltage settles.

                Revised Circuit Update

                Hi folks, i revised the circuit for this setup.
                It now has only one load position, this helps keep the capacitor charging equal and the series capacitor dump equal.
                I was noticing more imbalance with the previous circuit, as far as the voltage gain and loss.
                It now seems very balanced.

                  hi Sky!
                  do you think you can recharge a deplete batt with your setup?

                    Hi wistiti, so far, it doesn't seem so, though of course, my setup is ultra low frequency, maybe other effects may manifest at higher frequencies.
                    With this revised circuit, it seems much more balanced, giving back what it takes much more equally.
                    I must also state, that with these big capacitors, the voltage needs to be stabilized.
                    Perhaps with smaller value caps., this would take much less time.
                    I plan on getting a couple more batteries in future, to replace the capacitors and make tests with that setup also.
