IVO Electric Space Engine
A video of a serious competitor to our idea. Narrator and CEO announces that "while many people have theories, prototypes, or cool models, we made it real." Uploaded here as a point-of-reference and for historical purposes.

Biased-Lorentz Propulsion Test
A test for the forward-biased Lorentz engine tugging at a metallic suspended weight. Notice toward the end of the video how it brakes the weight against its pendulum effect.

Model 'F' Alternative Experiment
In 2012, there was a research question posed while I was at University about how power broadcast - in which direction; through the air or through the ground. This video confirms that the power between distant receivers flowed through the ground connection that contained a DIY capacitor that replicated the planetary ground.

Model 'F' Modulation Test
Volume Two: Power transmission with AM and FM modulation
Silent video of experiment conducted in April 2004 of a replica of coil arrangement and stationary capacitor transmitting power and information in the same theoretical manner as Wardenclyffe. This video demonstrates the application of AM and FM modulation to the power signal generated by the HP8640B. For this experiment power level is reduced to +13 dBm. AM modulation is at 80%, FM modulation is set with a peak deviation of 520 kHz.
The system demonstrated in this video became a part of US Patent 8,274,178 (2012) and was published in May 2013 as "A contribution to the wireless transmission of power" with Kevin Warwick and William Holderbaum in International Journal of Electrical Power & Energy Systems.

Model 'F' Broadcast Test
Volume One: Transmission of long-distance wireless power
Silent video of experiment conducted in April 2004 of a replica of coil arrangement and stationary capacitor transmitting power in the same theoretical manner as Wardenclyffe. The model is a duplication of the system illustrated in Tesla's US patent #645,576. The model has a modification where energy is delivered to a mobile card. The terrestrial coils and capacitor consist a rigid resonant structure which is "rang" by the introduction of a 78MHz sinusoidal waveform from an HP8640B signal generator. An HP141T spectrum analyzer with HP 8554A / HP8552A plugin modules displays the waveform seen by the coil on the mobile card. Power intensity is at +20 dBm. Power differential, that is difference between input by the signal generator and output measured by the spectrum analyzer is ~5.3 dBm.
The system demonstrated in this video became a part of US Patent 8,274,178 (2012) and was published in May 2013 as "A contribution to the wireless transmission of power" with Kevin Warwick and William Holderbaum in International Journal of Electrical Power & Energy Systems.

The simplest wireless power circuit
Back in 2012, I invented a simple circuit that demonstrates magnetic-resonant wireless power by acceleration. I published this circuit in 2014 but have had requests of a short video that describes the circuit. The components are:
2x - IRFZ44N n-MOSFET
2x - 10nF Tantalum capacitors
1x - 100nF metalized capacitor
In the arrangement noted in the video demonstration. The mathematical details and behaviour-mapping was first published in June 2014 as "Power transfer in velocity-vortex acceleration" in International Journal of Modelling, Identification and Control
. This paper can be downloaded freely at:
