This page shows my research, replication and verification of the Bedini patent(s). "Device and method for utilizing a monopole motor to create back EMF to charge batteries" to be exact. The construction of the bedini motor is not complex, but there is some fine tuning involved. After over 100 tests with batteries I was able to verify that the Tesla/Bedini device did in fact produce batteries that with each successive draining and charging cycle gained energy while batteries charged conventionally lost energy (joules) over time.
This page shows the circuit, photos of the process, the battery load testing results and a 20 minute video detailing everything.
HISTORY - AKA, the people/machines I studied to get to this point.
Nikola Tesla filed two very unusual patents in 1901. These were:
"APPARATUS FOR THE UTILIZATION OF RADIANT ENERGY" - US Pat. 685957 - Filed Mar 21, 1001 (Download Here)
and "METHOD OF UTILIZING RADIANT ENERGY US" Pat. 685958 - Filed Mar 21, 1901
(Download Here)
Tesla had 112 patents to his name. |

First of all Tesla almost always filed two patents with regards to one subject, one saying "here's my idea" and the other saying "here's how to build it." These patents were largely ignored because Tesla had already invented AC current and it was being rolled out to the public by J.P. Morgan. These patents are Tesla saying, "wait, this is better than my old AC patents," but it was too late. After Tesla created the AC system he didn't stop working, he found an improvement. This was pretty much the end of Tesla's radiant work.. or was it? If you want the details of the Tesla Radiant Patents explained to you, I recommend getting Peter Lindemann's "Tesla's Radiant Energy" DVD.
"Today's scientist have substituted mathematics for experiments and they wander off through equation after equation and eventually build a structure which has no relation to reality."

Enter Ed Gray
Ed Gray rediscovered this principle in the 1950-ish and built "the Gray Motor", Of course, he's dead now of mysteries causes. The following paragraph is an excerpt about Gray from a friend named Peter Lindemann's web site:
In 1958, Edwin V. Gray, Sr. discovered that the discharge of a high voltage capacitor could be shocked into releasing a huge, radiant, electrostatic burst. This energy spike was produced by his circuitry and captured in a special device Mr. Gray called his "conversion element switching tube." The non-shocking, cold form of energy that came out of this "conversion tube" powered all of his demonstrations, appliances, and motors, as well as recharged his batteries. Mr. Gray referred to this process as "splitting the positive." During the 1970's, based on this discovery, Mr. Gray developed an 80 hp electric automobile engine that kept its batteries charged continuously. Hundreds of people witnessed dozens of demonstrations that Mr. Gray gave in his laboratory. His story is well documented in the following materials.

In the 1970's, Paul Baumann created a research project to make his community energy self-sufficient. He discovered a way to harness the power in atmospheric static electricity. Here is a photo of his machine. (from the http://free-energy.ws web site) I actually a attempted to contact them and visit. I received a few email in another language and didn't really pursue it further.
Finally, it was Peter Lindemann D.Sc, that introduced me to the current state of "free energy" matters, among other things! Peter is the main reason that I made it this far. Peter (just to be clear, is still alive) use to work/associate with John Ecklin, Paul Brown, Bruce DePalma, Mike Knox, Trevor Constable and many more. Notably, Peter discovered how the Ed Gray motor worked and in 2000 he gave a lecture about it, made a book and started a company around that information. Enter John Bedini. John gets a copy of Peter's book and calls Peter to say, "...you got it right, come work with us." John and Peter worked together at Energenx (a website that I constructed, long story) creating prototypes of motors and tesla energy systems for some time. Here is page on John Bedini's website showing the motors that Peter created with John. If the web page link doesn't work - here is a PDF archive of that page.
This is how I got introduced to John Bedini and Gary Bedini. John Bedini has built about a hundred prototypes trying to research and learn. John has about 20 years on me at this point, but I have no plans to give up. People often make fun of me for liking John Bedini and his work. These are usually those that have never seen any of his work in depth. I don't care anyway, he reminds me of my grandfather. John has been featured in a TV series, below is a small trailer from part two of that series, If you want more info on Energy from the VacuumTM series (or to purchase it) go here.

"John Bedini has now moved the science of radiant energy one step farther by discovering how radiant energy can be captured in CHEMICAL loads, such as the electrolyte of a battery!"

Constructing the Bedini Motor (SSG)
Step one: Fabricate a single-coil version of the above Bedini motor. Affectionately know as the "SSG" for simplified school girl, because a school girl built this for a science fair. That fact alone forced my ego to say to me "If you can't build this then a school girl is better than you!" While in fact most school girls are better than me anyway. Here are some photos of my fabrication:

| Getting the coil as close as possible | 24" wheel with 16 magnets | The sweet spot was 138RPMs |
The Basic Schematic for this construction can be found on a bunch of different web sites. You can download it here as well. In addition to this, if you are going to try and build this, you can purchase our simple circuit diagram file, which shows you exactly how to hook this motor up. This will help if you are new to electronics.
Step two: Tune the motor to spin as fast as possible with the least amount of current (amps) draw. Known as "sweet spot" tuning, this was a little hard just because the lower the current draw the slower the wheel.. So finding the "spot" was pure trial and error. This was done by adjusting the 1,000 ohm resistor, letting the motor's speed settle, then I took RPM readings. I did this over and over, with the 1K ohm resistor set at every one hundredth value. Once I saw (for example) that the motor got progressively faster and faster until I hit 900 ohms, then looked from 800 to 900 in 10 ohm values. Each time I made an adjustment the motor (spinning wheel) needed at least 3 to 5 minutes to settle. For this motor the sweet spot was 840 ohms. This resulted in 138.1 RPM's, 77.5mA current draw, which means 2209.6 magnet passes per minute over the coil.

Step Three: Measure current out to the charging batteries. Simple stuff here, just used my analog meter and put it in series with the secondary (charging) battery to get the amps, then I measured the volts and multiplied the two together to find the watts. The joules was just watts * 3600.

| Amps, volts, watts and joules out to charging batteries. Nothing to exciting here. |
Step Four: Battery load testing. For the load testing phase I tried to leave the batteries on the SSG for exactly 12 hours at a time. Didn't get it perfect every time but still tried. I used a special "load testing" device that allowed computer controlled testing. It would sample the battery once a second and produce automatic (real-time) graphs and reports. The great thing about the device (The CBA II) was that I could do the exact same test over and over again and quickly see changes in the batteries.

All in all, I ran over 100 tests. With many different batteries. Some really small SLA (sealed-lead acid) 2.0 volts at 2.5 amp hour ratings, up to 12 volt 5 amp hour ratings. The 2.0 volts were just a little experiment. Specifically I tested two 12V batteries over 30 times. The pdf reports below are the detailed reports of those two batteries and the last 10 tests. You can see the charge time, with joules in and the battery load time with joules out. I saw a COP of over 1.0 more than once. Check them out!
Step Five: The Final Results. SO, how did the batteries compare after charging them up, draining them and charging them up again close to 100 times? Glad you asked! In fact if you have made it this far you have got to be a geek (like me)! Normal batteries, the more you use them, the weaker they get over time. Eventually we throw them away. This wasn't even CLOSE to the case with these batteries.. Take a look at the charts below, download the pdfs as they have very specific data about each battery if you care to know more.

These charts are showing that my two batteries (Radiant_1) and (Radiant_2) lasted longer the more that I charged them on the Bedini SSG. The numbers after the name denote the test number, radiant_1_1, radiant_1_2, 3, 4...10, etc..
