Duplicating Electronic Circuits

I have been searching on the Internet for the last couple of days looking for someone that has successfully built a working model of the plans for Tesla's supposed electric circuit that powered his electric car. The drawing above was produced nearly 20 years ago, all the parts are available today, then if the circuit drawing did work why hasn't someone duplicated it? There should have been at least a few people that were  able to produce it and there should have been a few people showing us on YouTube examples of their experiments. 

The circuit drawing above reminds me of  jigsaw puzzle with a few of the key pieces having been lost over time. This is a common problem when trying to duplicate experiments produced by scientists of the past.

Should someone try to duplicate the circuit?  I personally would be very hesitant to spend very much of my money on such a project that had such an uncertain  outcome. It would be like putting all my money into a lottery ticket and expecting to win every time.

In a previous post I talked about Sky4Energy which did have a youtube video that not only demonstrated that the circuit worked but showed all of us just how well it did work.

By using a known to work circuit it is a lot easer to get results than by using a circuit that has been untested.

An experiment is much like writing a computer program, you must start with a module that is working completely. Then you add another module to the first module to accomplish a different result. An example of this would be, the first module was able to produce 5 volts output by adding a second module (voltage doubler circuit) you would have 10 volts output. By designing your electronic circuits in this way if say the second module doesn't work or fails through component failure then the time required to diagnose and repair a problem is greatly reduced.

Now in saying all this when you have an electronic circuit that does work the way that you want then it is time to redesign the circuit and assemble the complete circuit on one circuit board. You do this to simplify the duplication of the working circuit.

I have been successfully building electronic circuits for over 50 years using the modular approach, it has only been when I deviate from this type of construction that I encounter problems. I hope that this post will help some of you new experimenters out there.

Let us know what you are doing in regards to alternative energy in your country, we all would like to know.

Until next time
