Does this thing really work?  Sounds to good to be true.

This goes along with my other post about the inventions of Nikola Tesla

Today more and more people are moving towards using green renewable energy not only because of the environmental benefits of renewable energy but also because of high power bills.

Among the typical green energy sources like wind turbines and solar panels we are now looking towards techniques like “Magnetic Generators”. This device is designed to generate energy free of cost, without the use of non renewable natural resources.

Magnetic Generators are a zero point energy generation device, This type of device consumes less energy than what it generates. With a large enough generator it can easily be capable of handling all the appliances of a typical home.

These work under all weather conditions and temperature doesn’t affect their performance. These generators could be the most reliable power generating device among all the green energy power devices of today.

Solar power systems work well in locations that have an extensive amount of sunlight and home windmills are popular in areas with constant flow of wind, but the greatest benefits of magnetic generators are that they can function in all weather conditions and in all temperature ranges.

This clean energy device could likely replace all the normal home energy generators in near future because the magnetic generator, is completely harmless to the environment.

If you are interested in a method of creating your own energy with little or no cos, then you might want to look into these. Magnetic generators can be built easily with inexpensive materials and installation in a limited place is a major benefit. No costly maintenance is required and it’s easy to keep running.

All you need is a guide book to install it and there are videos and information available on the Internet that will show you everything you need to know about about how to make a magnetic generator yourself.

This type of generator could be a long term solution to power cuts and shortages. According to a recent survey, magnetic generators are the most popular source of energy generation which is also completely environment friendly.

The typical small generator can produce power up to 7,000 watts. It is by far the cheapest way to generate energy. Plus when you move to a new house it is easily movable from one place to another without any extra strenuous effort.

Here’s some interesting information about green alternative energy involving Nikola Tesla that has been forgotten about for a hundred years and just now rediscovered.

Nikloa Tesla who was born in July 1856 is a fascinating man. He was an inventor, mechanical engineer, and electrical engineer. He was also an important contributor to the birth of commercial electricity, and many revolutionary developments in the field of alternating current electromagnetism.

In 1893 Tesla, in front of many disbelievers, demonstrated wireless energy transfer to power electronic devices and later aspired to intercontinental wireless transmission of industrial power.

Tesla designed various devices that use rotating magnetic fields to operate and in 1887, he constructed the first brushless Alternating Current induction high efficiency electric motor. At the same time Edison was trying to improve his electric motor which ran on Direct Current.

Edison was having so much trouble with his DC motors and generators that upon hearing about Tesla’s high efficiency motors decided to offer Tesla the task of completely redesigning the Edison company’s direct current generators and motors to increase there power and efficiency.

The problem was Edison himself was never very impressed by alternating current and he strongly believed direct current was the only true method to deliver power.

However, the Edison company went ahead and offered Tesla US$50,000 if he redesigned Edison’s inefficient motor and generators, making an improvement in both service and economy, but later when Tesla inquired about the payment for his work, Edison replied, “Tesla, you don’t understand our American humor,” thus breaking his word.

Of course we all know that today all power delivered to our homes and businesses in alternating current and what about the “generator” in your car? It turned into an “alternator”(ac rectified to dc) years ago!

Now fast forward to today.

A New Breakthrough…

There’s a new (old) device that you can build yourself that is based on some forgotten and now re-discovered  Tesla’s ideas that would allow current traveling in the atmosphere to be tapped into and used to charge batteries. (cellphone in the video)

Guess what? It works! It works night and day, rain or shine and this could be a great addition to your green power system. The really interesting about this is it requires no external power to operate and it’s VERY easy to build a small scale one to see how it works for yourself!

Watch this video and see how easy it is to build a small scale Tesla device and see it work for yourself.

You may not have heard of him… but Nikola Tesla was a true Einstein of electricity! Unfortunately, he succeeded in making some powerful enemies while he was alive… so they literally “erased” him from history after he died.

He pioneered wireless communication… so much so that when Marconi made the first transatlantic transmission, he was using 17 of Tesla’s patents.

Radars, microwave ovens, fluorescent lights, electric motors… we wouldn’t have any of these without Nikola Tesla.

Yet with every invention he made, he was also creating more powerful enemies.

When Tesla Introduced Alternating Current, he shook the very foundation of the Big Energy establishment. His AC powered devices were much more efficient than the (soon to become obsolete) DC devices… and the powers to be were desperately clinging to a worthless technology.

Find out more about this alternative energy source and how to build your own large scale Tesla Generator Device. The small cost for this information is VERY worth it!

Tesla seems to have some competition from a Japanese inventor known as Dr. NakaMats. His actual name is Yoshiro Nakamatsu and I have read that he claims to be the inventor of the floppy disk and other devices, but what bothers me is his claim that he has a new device based on the principles of Nicola Tesla’s free energy system, that is so efficient that even after expending tremendous amounts of electricity for the needs of his house, the system still generates enough electrical energy to be sold to the Tokyo Electric Power Company!

I just do not believe this! My small scale Tesla free energy device generates enough power to brightly light an LED and yes it could be scaled up, but to run his entire huge house with over 30 guest rooms and still sell power back to the power company is pushing it in my opinion!

I suggest you go ahead and build your own Tesla free energy device and see what you think and then leave a comment.

Solar panels became commercially available in the mid 1950’s but the efficiency of the cells was quite low at that time. By the late 50’s the efficiency problem had been improved enough that the first solar powered satellite was launched in 1958.

From then until the early 90’s solar panels were only used for powering satellites, and small electronics like calculators and watches.

As I said in another living off the grid post on this blog, I was using a 120 volt DC solar array to charge a bank of batteries and converting the DC to AC with a expensive, back then, sine wave inverter to run the house. Since my house was out in “the sticks” I could only receive two TV stations and they were both weak and snowy. So I decided to build a satellite TV system.

A major misconception about solar energy is the myth that you need to live in some place like Texas with a lot of sunshine which is just not true. Take a look at this video about a guy who lives way up north in cloudy Seattle Washington! For the rest of this article visit

I myself lived off the grid for about 10 years from 1978 to 1988. Back in 1978 things were not so easy to do in solar energy, I had very little money, but I was determined to do it. I bought a small house on a dirt road far from power in the high desert region of Southern California. The real estate lady kept repeating “you do know this place has no electricity” I said yes, that’s why I want to buy it. She was totally confused.

I had previously purchased a single solar panel that produced 12 volts at 2 amps. This I used to charge a 12 volt car battery and I placed 12 volt lights around the house. It was a start but it was not enough I still had to run my little Honda generator to watch TV.

Back then the only affordable inverters you could find produced 120 volts square wave AC and TV’s or stereos do not like square wave current, they want normal 120 volt sine wave or else you have bars running through the picture and an awful hum in the sound. So on came the generator to watch TV or listen to music. This was not what I wanted so I kept searching for a sine wave inverter and I finally bought one used that required 120 to 140 volts DC input and produced 120 volts sine wave AC on the output and was voltage regulated to boot. Problem now was I needed 120 volts DC to run it.

I kept searching the classified section in the newspapers and one day I saw a notice for a government auction at a Marine base not far from me. I drove to the site and found they had a huge lot of very used panels mixed in with all kinds of stuff to be auctioned off.

I bid on the solar panels and won the lot for about $180. Now the problem was getting them back home. It took two trips in my pickup across the desert to get them all but at the end of day I found I had 15 good working panels and 8 or 9 that were broken up and damaged. I later used these to build five more working panels.

Now I had enough power to run my house without using the generator. Here’s how I did it. I really do not recommend that you do this as it is very dangerous to do and besides today you can buy nice 120 volt sine wave inverters that run on safe 12 or 24 volts input.

My system consisted of 20 solar panels wired in series/parallel to produce 120 volts DC which I charged 10 deep cycle lead acid batteries fed to my 120 volt DC inverter. This sounds easy but it had plenty of problems.

First 120 volts DC is extremely dangerous, unlike AC if you get across it you can’t pull yourself off and will be killed. The second problem was keeping the voltages regulated to the correct values to keep the 10 batteries charging properly. I finally got it working and now I had “normal” power in my house. At last I could use regular light bulbs and watch my satellite TV and listen to my CD’s all I wanted, it really felt good.

Today all the hassle and danger I went though has been eliminated and powering your house with solar panels is easier and cheaper than ever before.

If you use one of the new proven step by step guides and blueprints to do this, you too will be able to enjoy running your house on solar energy safely without spending a ton of money.

Last year my neighbors and friends all laughed when I told them I was thinking about using solar power to help reduce my power bill. They told me that it would be too expensive and I’d be crazy to even try. However I knew better because I had done it before, more than 20 years ago. Back then it was much more difficult to find parts then it is today. Plus now you can get big tax breaks and rebates for doing it.

So I did some research on where to get cheap parts and I found there’s a ton of information out there. Some of it really good and some of it a little sketchy. I did find one I liked called “Earth4 Energy” I bought it because it has great videos. With that information, the whole thing became an inexpensive and fun project.

After I got the panels on the roof, I started to save money every month on my power bill. This whole project was easier then I ever imagined and armed with this new up to date guide it’s even easier and cheaper than ever! My system is expanable so every few months, as I build new panels, I’ll add them to the array and save even more.

Today I’m helping my friends build their own solar power systems. Everyone says I should start a business doing this.
