THE PROJECT

This was the Guinea shore unit which the inventor shipped from Virginia to Conakry in 2008. A separate test device to move the weight up and down was constructed and used in Virginia. The bobbing of the weight every six seconds, about three feet up and down, would fully charge a 100 amp-hour, deep cycle 12-volt battery in about six hours.

This was the Guinea shore unit which the inventor shipped from Virginia to Conakry in 2008.

  • A separate test device to move the weight up and down was constructed and used in Virginia.
  • The bobbing of the weight every six seconds, about three feet up and down, would fully charge a 100 amp-hour, deep cycle 12-volt battery in about six hours.
  • The unit was installed in a building constructed on shore.
  • The bicycle wheels would spin the motor in the same direction regardless of the direction of the weight.

Other Works

SIMPLICITY vs. COMPLEXITY: The distances through which physical forces can be transmitted with steel cable should be obvious to those who have gone long distances over ski resorts and up steep inclines in gondolas.
