I'd toyed with that idea of local power converters but I must give the
credit for thumping my head on it to an interesting fellow named Bill.
Our discussions and his insights emphasized the importance and exceeding
logic of such 'perpetual batteries' that had not struck me until we
talked about it on several occasions.
There would be no retrofit, just power packs you buy at the store and
plug in to the appliance you want to run, piece of cake.
As you say, a value added product would be to include such a supply in
all new appliance, incorporating the cost into the device.
What will be interesting is the tendency to design in senescence so that
the appliance falls to pieces after a few years, thus requiring new
units. For that reason, it would seem logical to just have power units
rated at certain wattages, so that you could discard an old appliance
and not have to lose the power supply.
The trick will be to keep enough juice around to kick start the unit in
the first place so that you blow a large enough hole/drain in the aether
to fulfill the appliance power needs. Once it is going, you just tickle
the hole to keep it open so that the aether continues to flow into the
vortex in order to be translated to electro-magnetic energy to drive the
appliance. That tickle power should be able to be supplied by the unit.
There are claims that units that appear to be self-running must be
supplied by outside power because the thing seems to go into a damped
oscillation that quenches the flow. This happens when the output of
such a unit is fed back, with the intention of keeping it alive,
however, it goes into some kind of negative feedback loop or declining
hysteresis that will soon kill the energy tap.
For that reason, it might be necessary to keep an outside battery to
create not only the initial hole/drain, but also to provide the tickle,
then the output of the converter can be used to recharge the battery.
Since each device is rated to draw a maximum wattage which it rarely
does, then you might have one unit that has multiple settings so you
could blow a hole to provide the wattage you need for that appliance.
Like a universal converter that provides +/- 12VDC, 9VDC, 6VDC, 3VDC,
etc...the main limitation would be the maximum power handling capacity
of the components that comprise the circuit.
All in all, I'll take about 10 of these individual, easily transportable
zpe/aether converters over one main unit that provides 50KW. It's like
have 1 million bucks or 10 million, beyond philanthropy, what in the
heck would a person need with 10 million bucks when 10% of 1 million
will yield $100,000 per year....ok, taxes leave you with +$80,000, I
could live on that and do SERIOUS POSITIVE MISCHIEF with the
extra...<g>...so why be power hungry, use what you need, no more.
