G'day Jerry, Bill and all.
The first thing I thought of when I read of the high voltage needed etc. was
of the picture tube which is normally charged by an eht. supply at up to
25kv (for a 26" tube)
It will also act as a capacitor, remaining charged for a considerable length
of time. (electostatically charged) .
The inventor of this device wrote....
"The energy comes from harnessing a perpendicular field that exists
within a normal electrostatic field. "
The tube is also under vacuum !

Dont ask me what or how ; just my first obvservations.
