We live in amazing times.

If this can be scaled up, it would be incredible.

I can power a clock with a potato. The question is scale.

Notice that the article suspiciously leaves out the size of the device in question and the amount of power it produces. Both are extremely important factors in determining the feasibility of said device.

That is exactly what I noticed...

It most likely produces next to nothing, but it is a positive charge. The lack of detail is telling.

I physics you don’t get something for nothing. Solar directly captures energy from the sun. Wind energy is energy captured indirectly from the sun. Getting energy from matter is not reusable energy.

I know of a guy who invented a carburator that will give any car 100mpg but the oil companies killed him before he could sell it.

Yeah, but they discovered the carburetor was obsoleted by a perpetual motion machine that required no fuel whatsoever.

An oldie but goldie that has been around since I was a child or longer.

Volkswagon did sell a very high millage diesel car in the euro market for years. Never exported to north America.

Personally I feel it would have sold well here. Possibly the best fuel milage of any car ever commercially produced in that time. By a decent margin. Beating the diesel smart car I believe.

Why do I need this new fangled generator?
All I need to do is go on youtube and see how to use a couple of magnets, some copper and a big ass capacitor...

Not true, I'm still alive and looking for investors.

Why so hostile to basic research?

Most people have been conditioned to react like this when new energy sources are brought up. Google Bloom box.

For good reason. Every power producing device I know converts one source of energy to another.

What is the "fuel" that is being converted to produce electricity by this device?

I imagine is an electron transfer between the water and the matrix when contact is made. Not enough info to draw anymore than that. Scalability, by products, longevity. Who knows

200 years ago, photovoltaic science didn’t exist, and there were no theories, even, that would account for it.

Tell someone that you could put this thing out on a clear day, and electricity would come out of it? They would think you are crazy.
