Powering Electrical Devices With Energy Abstracted From The Atmosphere
Filed March 12, 1954
I have a bit more of the patent than is found in the book "The Free Energy
Device Handbook"...all that is in there is the pictures...which is fine, but
I have some of the documentation as well...somewhere!
I will have a look sometime this weekend...but don't hope for too much.
