Energy for Mobile Home

[dmonarch]

Hi i am looking at getting a bus and turning it into a mobile home. I was wondering if anyone could provide me with good advice on providing services such as heat and electricity using radiant technology.
I was thinking the imhotep radiant oscillator would do the job of charging batteries and have a battery switching system. I am not sure about heat though other than using the electricity to run a heater or similar
Thanks heaps for your help and would appreciate any advice

Hi Monarch, i've built a permanent magnet heater based on troy reeds designs and i understand that Bill Muller and Robert Adams may have invented similar heating devices. The device rotates permanent magnets past a conducting material or vice versa, it is the safest heater i am aware of that i know works and is very efficient. as far as powering it maybe off the shelf solar panels with a wind generator. maybe someone else can help with other energy sources because i have yet to get self sustaining energy from my experiments thus far.

Thats excellent

That sounds excellent and ideal for the situation. Do you think it possible to use an SG as the motor and generator

Off the shelf panels for power, look on Craigslist I have gotten great deals on City equipment. Every couple of years they sell off those panels from Road signs and such. They put out WAY better numbers than regular store bought panels and they usually give you the GEl cells and electronics with them. I bought 4 panels for $120

Another idea for hot water, in my shop I have ran 3 Black water hoses back and forth the length of my building and it works pretty good for a solar water heater without paying a bunch for a commercial set-up.

Thats just a few ideas of things that can be permanently mounted to the Bus, but there are allot more options like wind turbines and Mini windmills Ive seen people pull out of there RV's when they are parked that you could use (Make) also.

No Radiant

Thanks for the solar panel ideas
I would have thought that there would be an ideal radiant setup. Like charging the batteries with a bedini sg and using the motor to turn that magnet heater to heat water.
Is it not at the level of usability or reliability yet.

Hi, i would say the heater works very well, you could liken it to a heat pump with similar efficiency potential that you could buy commercially, but the magnet heater would be much simpler and reliable. It could be used as a space heater or designed to heat water or enclosed with blower as central heating unit. I have not had any luck myself charging batteries to get self sustained output w/ bedinis designs although yes you can charge batteries this way and it may charge better over time with conditioning. However i have noticed w/ solid state charger when dumping cap into batts w/ 2 strand bifilar coil acting as transformer that input drops when pulsed so maybe the lutec generator design is taking advantage of that effect. The SG if scaled up could power the magnet heater, you would have to use multiple rotors probably though. Realize its more of a generator than motor because the electromagnets are energized just to null the magnets field.

Thats weird

Thanks for the info on the heat pump, very cool.
I have built a bedini sg before and had little luck with it being overunity. I did not alter anything followed his guidelines exactly. I have seen so many posts on this site crying to all that they have found the solution and that there setup produces overunity. i dont meen to pick or be horrible. I do think overunity is possible, I mean heck just look around you it is everywhere. Out of all the people here and the amount of time that is put into has not one come up with a solution that is overunity. Allot seem to put out general guidelines on construction which seems to be causing more trouble than good.
I have read a few people commenting on this and i guess i am going to chime in. Why is there no or little experimentation with gray or tesla style devices. Heck if tesla was able to produce these effects with none of the engineering benefits we have to day why cant we. Why has no one reproduced and made available there setup. From what i understand John Bedini made a can as stated by Peter Linderman. Why is the information on construction not available. It would allow people to have the direct experience that tesla and gray had. It would allow them to learn. Being afraid of what might happen if you release it is way past due the point of being valid. It would have been valid in the past with an optimistic view to the future producing other solutions. However based on history this has not been the case. For the most part those people that apparently produce devices that are overunity are bl**dy greedy and are not selfless other wise the solution would be in the public by now. Of course the other way to look at it though i dont agree is that all these devices have been scams. I just cant see this as being true and so the only answer is that the lack of selfless knoble people is appalling.
I know this is a harsh email, specially for someone who just joined the other day. I know for a fact that i would give up my life, my well being in a blink of an eye if it were to bring about a better world. I am not a religious guy in any sense i just know what is right.
Sorry if i upset anyone. I really did not mean to. I am probably just like everyone else looking change.

Thanks heaps wpage

Thanks for the links wpage. I managed to find a book on bus conversion which will help allot, specially with the details.

hi folks, monarch i think the technology not getting to the people is more related to active suppression combined with the active misinformation and dumbing of the masses to create ignorance on the matter, than inventors not wanting it marketed, though your free to believe what you like. I just wanted to mention a method of enhacing the charging effectivesness of solar panels called "Slycell". it breaks up the solar panel into groups of cells to charge individual 2 volt lead acid cells in a series parallel configuration to avoid lead acid cell to cell resistance and match impedance between solar cell groupings and lead acid cells. it rapid charges the cells and one can use less solar panels to achieve same result. hope this may be of use.

Thanks skywatcher

Thank heaps for the heads up on the slycell. I have never heard of that before. It would seem rather simple to send the information out to those interested like the forum use list in one single click of a button via email.

Any drawings or schematics of a set-up that you could share? Im very interested in this.....Im sure I could Google it, but then it wouldn't be here on our forum for our members to see!

[SkyWatcher]

heres the circuit

Hi folks, heres the circuit and numbers 40-45 on schematic are diodes or latching relays to prevent loss of charge. and latching relays are preferred due to low voltage used to charge individual lead acid cells.

hi folks, also im currently winding a small toroid transformer w/ multiple output windings to get between 1.5-2V on each to see how well this works with something other than solar cells. ill be using a 12v lead acid batt. while pulsing the primary w/ dc square waves to see how well i can charge aa cells for starters.

Dirty tricks abound

I'd have to agree with the concept of active suppression of the technology. I remember reading in last month's CACM about how Intel is going to be bringing us wireless electricity--yet another example of how this technology has been around for decades and the big, benevolent corporations are now feeding us the scraps.

Another example is my cordless phone. Not long ago the battery in the handset wouldn't hold a charge for more than a few minutes, even after sitting on the base charging all day and all night. So, I took the battery pack out and saw that it was basically a 3 cell NiCad with each cell capable of delivering 1.2V (3.6 total). I thought that putting that thing on my 12V Bedini charger (the 4PMP replica) might kill it but then again, the thing was pretty much a throwaway at that point. It took a few charge/discharge cycles but now all it needs is one hour on the 4PMP and the battery will last for days before needed a recharge (take those things off at the first sign of heat if you're going to try this ).

This got me to thinking--why aren't all rechargeable battery applications done this way? And the answer just may well be that it runs counter to our throwaway culture that we've had forced upon us. It seems that NiCads respond quite well to this kind of charging (it may also be 4:1 voltage ratio on the front end vs. the back end too ). I'm going to try to find some NiCads made in common sizes (9V, AAA, AA, C, D, etc) since once I have them I'll never have to buy disposable batteries ever again! It makes me sick to think of all the waste in that area and Bedini's technology is pretty well proven in battery charging, at least to me.

And as far as OU goes (and that's a really badly abused term) it's been done and well over 20 years ago when Jim Watson demonstrated a monster capable of delivering 8KW from 2 12V batteries (if I recall correctly). The answer has been given but it seems nobody understands it. As for me, I'm still slowly working my way towards a better understanding.

It's funny, some people seem to think that self runners are toys but I think that Jim Watson's generator was no toy! The answer is there, it's just a matter of understanding it, making it work on a small scale, and then scaling it up. If I have any success I'll definitely be sharing it with you guys.
