FAST REPORT

Post by murilo »

Hello you guys!

This is an innocent report about the promotion in bellow, with end at may/10th.
Of sure, some of you will know to IdeaConnection.

On last april/14th I sent them details about AVALANCHEDRIVE.

They should send me a confirmation in 24h and this never happened.

I can’t get any other inform there, since my password – confirmed by them – doesn’t work.

There is also none list where I can see any progress.

I thought to be interesting to share all this... just in case! I’ll be back!

Take care!

About ''ideas forum'' and crowd source, cluster or whatever, I can report another case.

Innocentives released a challenge for a client that wants to harvest energy from the lightnings, or electric storms.

They offered US$ 7,500 prizes for each these four steps:
-capture
-regulation or control
-switch
-get the energy itself

They asked JUST for these single stuffs and nothing else.

In a fast msg, I told them about an absolutely huge idea of mine for to capture and absorb most of that violent energy, for the price of 30,000.

Wow... the guy there got very upset and kick off my proposition. If one want receive intelligence from their side, will waste time!

This is an idea that may die with me and nor a word is written about, except for this msg.

To reach this stuff it's no more only a question of creativity, inspiration or intelligence... this is a question of biography!

Cheers!

Murilo, there are scammers everywhere, the world has changed : it's not the early bird that gets all the worms, it's the bird who talks the other birds out of the worms, or steals them.

Lightening ? Just get a lightning strike onto a pole anchored in a saline solution bathtub, build a capacitor capable of storing the stuff. Basic electronics :=)

nic...might I suggest tapping that static before its max potential..I'd hate to blow a hole through the dielectric and put someones eye out...then again you might have found a fuse start for your wheel..? :)

Nic, lightnings are already a stupendous capacitor.
Thousands of kV and kA at a very short time.
Pure salt NaCl is used at solar power capture and melts at 801C and boils at 1413C.
Boiling means vapor generation state and this is too low to dealing with instant sonofabeacheons of kW! This is one of the most violent nature stuffs.
Best!

( sorry, I forgot to comment about the arch temperature, that must reach to plasma levels. :(
