Why does scale lower heater efficiency? Resistive heaters are by their nature always 100% efficient. The only thing I could imagine is that scaling on the heating element slows the heat transfer causing the element to overheat and either trip a thermal fuse or increase its internal resistance thus lowering the heat output (and electricity consumption). So I genuinely don't understand how that ohmic array could save energy compared to standard resistive heater.

Sir you are a honest Man , the last comment you gave is like agreeing and authenticating in a subtle way that there is a need to work on harnessing solar thermal energy. Thanks 🙏

this is just brilliant, thank you so much for this video and incredible explanation

Forgot GM's EV1 which was before Nissan's Leaf by about a decade... Other than that, loved the overview of all these ideas for locomotion. The Zinc-Halogen batteries seem interesting, especially with catalysts...

This guy really needs a tv show!

I loved all of this. I have no idea what half of what you said meant, but I’m excited to learn!

You also can get a double channel hall sensor with output MOSFETs from a fan. It drives the coils depending on the magnet position. Can be used in different electrical toys and DIY automation.

Some really great info in here thanks for sharing!!

Why doing this when you have diodes? Make a gear rack + another gear on the generator shaft. Let it rotates any wise it wants. Rectify the generator output. Profit!

Making a wire thermal battery from a couple of thousands of wire pieces isn't that hard. And such a battery can withstand very high temperatures. Not much voltage it can give but current should be sufficient. You just need to weld all the junctions on a graphite rod. Something like constantan and nichrome is available.

Once I had to install an RCD in a house located on a separate plot. It was necessary, among other things, to correctly connect two grounding wires from electrodes in different places - one directly on the site, and the other somewhere on a power pole in the distance. Both ground electrodes are made of steel. The potential between these two grounds was sufficient to trip the RCD. I also connected the multimeter, but I don’t remember at all what it showed.

Heat is not a very good way to store energy (unless you need exactly the thermal energy), since all thermal converters (internal combustion engines, Peltier elements, Stirling engines) have low efficiency, which, moreover, drops even lower at the slightest deviation of the system parameters from the conditionally ideal. Perhaps gravitational accumulation is best suited, i.e. raising a certain working mass to a certain height. Often this is pumping water from bottom to top, but it can also be lifting a solid, heavy load. Such potential energy can be much more simply and efficiently converted into electrical energy using a conventional generator. And the efficiency of electric machines is rarely below 70%.

For reference: the resonant frequency of water molecules is about 2.4 GHz. This is what microwave ovens work on. So yes, there is definitely no resonance in this device. However, thermal effects may occur in a dielectric placed in an alternating electric field. (in case of deionized water). Electrode direct heaters ARE actually used but not in households due to their obvious inconsistency with the electrical safety rules -- water stays electrified through the process. They are also quite demanding to water "saltness" -- too many ions causes short cirquit, too few -- device isn't working or does it slow. In addition, they leave behind various electrolysis (yes, it goes but slightly different than on DC) products after the process, which may be completely unacceptable in the further use of water. Their main use -- on big production sites and with voltages like 3-12 kV considering all the safety measures. And, mainly, to just produce just heat -- not water to use it.

What is attractive in your videos is, despite all the "madness" of experiments you doing, you're definitely sane. Unlike many others I must say.

I would like to see its output on an osciliscope.. if it is possible for you to do so.

Your videos rock even if they are about dumas inventions. Love the humor and the way you explain things, solid gold!

Awesome presentation! Where may I find the Gerber file? Thank you for being such an inspiration!`

Namaste Mate!❤ Hope you are well, all taken into consideration! If you were to build the perfect home/house, with ALL taken into consideration, how would you design, engineer and build that home if the only requirement was it had to be perfectly align with the sun according to something reasonablely proximititate to the placement of that home on Mother Gaia? Mentally or physically.

love your channel, ty

First thing that came to me when I saw you test this in the wind is to put one generator at the top and one at the bottom of the blades. double the power using the same amount of wind

Hi Rob,would a flywheel help or hinder your Archimedes screw😊

Hi Rob, could you use a copper central heating tank as a sand battery as you can fit a heater easily and it already has a coil of copper pipe fitted for water or hot air, maybe even paint the tank black and use solar. All the best Chris😊

Thank you for the video! Observation… Spools of wire (already wound) are purchased to wind smaller spools of wire. Can the purchased spool be used directly?

How strong was the graphene concrete after the 28 days?

What is the relationship in volts and amp as the speed changes? When its slower, the volts dropped. Did the amps stay the same to equal the energy put in? Do volts and amps both drop with slower speeds? It would be interesting if the design set the amps and speed set the volts.

Most human movement is wanking

I know this is old now but I’d be really curious to know what model rectifier you used that has a low enough voltage drop to work with the 3 volts 0.100ma these produce?

Cheers 🎉

I have always wondered why the large wind turbines are not covered with solar panels,even the blades.

Hi Rob, could you turn the O Wind turbine into a kite😊

May I know are you selling the roof turbine generator? How much for 1 unit?

Very good concept brought back and forth by cydem. but this suits me, it is a common savonius in the garden. rotor 134x75cm metal flange 70cm with 32 magnets and 30mm plywood board with 32 coils. this almost always works even in the forest and charges 12v batteries.. the power is not great but a constant small charge keeps and fills the batteries.

What about rectified AC?

Rob there must have been a lot of redundant horses when the car became popular.....I wonder where they all went 🤔😂😂

Hey' rob I haven't give ya, no good idea's in a long time. SO, Here's a few : lay it on it's side, & put another " generator head" on the opposite 🤔 side 🤔. !!! OR : leave it straight up & down, and stack, blades & generator heads, one on the other and go as high as ya, like, that is my favorite idea " The second " one I mean... Go as high up as a light-pole......❤ or as long sideways as you're fence.....😮😊😅😮😮😮

Hey guys, is Rob ok? I haven't seen any videos in a few weeks? You all develop great content. Keep up the good work :)

You are out of this world. Good info

Anthony Hopkins explains graphene. Subscribed 😂

Your clips are very interesting. Nice to follow and exchange fun and new knowledge. Hope you will increase our following as well. Thank you very much.

I think this is my favorite video you have made. You have such a great way of teaching, inspiring, and encouraging innovation...all while making me laugh. I truly appreciate you and the information you are sharing. Thank you❤

I do not have 3D printer. Is there anywhere I can purchase already printed turbine blades like that?

I've thought more about this and think that if we had several Seiko mechanisms with jut the one wheel and each arm spring loaded the end of each one could be pulled by a number of tree branches to give a more continuous rotation.

QUESTION: Would bigger magnets produce more watts?

Mr. Murray, do you think that motor could be run with the hot side of the peltier, and if so, use the motion of the motor to pump the air from the cold side of the peltier??

Do you know the ideal ratio of Graphene to add ? Thanks in advance and thanks for all of the useful information. Oh, is deionized water important? ❤

Did you mean subscribing? Done. I thought you meant Patreon or something.😅

So Could one use your acetone method directly mixed with ABS then ?

That was a really interesting vid 👍 lots of great info 👍 thank you

9' 51" BEST SAFETY TIP EVER! BRILLIANT!!!

Would crushed glass added to the sand increase its storage capacity ?
