I'm thinking you can use a 24-hour plug timer from your local store $3 for the sun tracker, just attach a metal pole horizontal to the ground at the center of the timer and lay the other end of the pole in a hole/groove slick with grease and/or ball bearings, then place solar panel centered on...

Update - I got another free satellite dish, I'll check the voltage on it before I convert it to a DIY usb Wifi extreme antenna booster using a tin vegetable can. I also bought some land down in Mexico, enough to run a 1 mile cable around the property, with no zoning laws or inspectors like we...

Thanks, sticky stuff, I looked for aluminum tape in construction stores but you can't find anything when you need it, it seems like I would see it everywhere before, now it has just disappeared, I quickly forgot about the tape then used aluminum flashing instead but I just googled "aluminum...

I'm trying to build a DIY working model of TEG/TEC generator similar to the exhaust pipe designs that recover energy from extremely hot exhaust pipe or light those antique candle powered radios. I have 400 (1 inch) pieces of copper wire and 400 (1 inch) pieces of paper clip steel wire. I will...

Other people keep filling it with water, salt, and/or bleach then just put the probe down into the liquid. I think they are just making a chemical battery and don't know because I had no problem lighting up an led with that solution and a metal probe connected to a copper probe. So I guess...

I never could get leyden jars to work. I'm trying to use a few 3 liter bottles I have here at home. I also have quite a few solar panels and other materials like aluminum foil and copper. I was thinking today that it seems it would be easier to have 2 bottles, 1 with a copper lead dipping...

Einstein used Ammonia, Butane Gas, and Water only. It is noted in the copyright. All I'm doing is asking for better safer chemicals to replace these. I would think that basically any chemical engineer could answer these questions with all the safe modern evaporation coolant alternatives we have...

I'm thinking of maybe even using the evaporation of Carbon Dioxide by dropping a small piece of 'Dry Ice' into water the water filled condenser on the left then using propane, ethanol, methanol, or sulfur dioxide on on the right. Or should I just put water into the left, shut if off, then pour...

No replies yet, am I in the wrong forum or something? This is pretty old stuff, somebody's got to know? I've got this project planned for October, maybe I'll just build it and see if it works?

Einstein's Refrigerator - Cooling Agent & Size Matter?? I'm looking at Einstein's patent #1,781,541 for a closed non-mechanical refrigeration unit approved Nov. 11, 1930, filed Dec. 16, 1927. http://www.fourmilab.ch/etexts/einstein/uspat1781541/www/" I'd like to power it with the solar heat...

Prices finally fell for the 4th of July solar lamps at Wal-Mart that nobody bought, down to $1 a piece. I bought 12 so I can hopefully get 12 volts out of it hook up in a series to trickle charge the battery pack for my laptop. I've got 12 strips of 100 foot telephone line I could run down to...

Yeah but there isn't any dark matter in our solar system, and it sticks together just fine, and no one would dare say that the gravity due to the sun in the middle of our solar system is almost negligible. Why people have to invent dark matter is beyond me when we already know matter curves...

Yeah, it's like, once they slam together and pass each other then could we say that they are moving away from each other, nope, they would sling back around and slam together again. It seems to me that everything moves to a constant state of cancellation or combination if you will. To say things...

Uh, yes it is happening, we are being pulled into the back hole just like water spins around the drain before it goes in, we do see it happening, that's like saying we can't see the effect of the suns gravity on earth, yet obviously it is super strong to be able to hold us in orbit at this...

I like Tesla's aether better... And as far as our location using light as a point of reference, we know something really huge, most probably a black hole or bigger is at the center of every galaxy, so the sling-shot effect of the light we do receive here on Earth is most likely huge. The stars...
