This 13-Year-Old Invented a Tesla-Inspired Free Energy Device for $14
The Antimedia ^ | May 19, 2016

Inspired by the geniuses Nikola Tesla and Albert Einstein, teenager Max Loughan loves to invent things, in fact, he says he has known his entire short life that his purpose was to change the world with his inventions. And he may just do it.

“As cheesy as this sounds, from day one, on this planet that I knew I was put here for a reason,” said Max. “And that reason is to invent, to bring the future.”

Wearing a lab coat while speaking in a televised interview with KTVN Channel 2 in Reno and Tahoe, Nevada, Max explains the free energy device that he made in his parents’ boiler room turned laboratory.

His invention looks somewhat reminiscent of Tesla coil, and operates on some of the same principles described by the electric visionary. The device is rather simple, harvesting electromagnetic energy from the atmosphere, then converting it to direct current which can be used to power electrical devices.

What’s even more incredible is that Max built his free energy device out of materials he purchased for less than $15. That’s right, for the price of an average lunch, it appears that anyone can have access to free energy.

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

“He created an electro magnetic harvester out of a coffee can, some wire, two coils, and a spoon.”

In a demonstration with KTVN, Max uses current created by the machine to power a strip of LED lights that he had wrapped around his twin brother, astonishing to both his own family and the visiting news crew.

The harvester conducts radio waves, thermal, and static energy, and turns it into electricity. “This wire takes energy from the air.” And the inside the coffee can, “We turn it from AC to DC.”

Max’s achievement is impressive, to say the least, and the fact that works of Nikola Tesla are now inspiring the next generation of inventors is quite inspiring, although one has to wonder why Tesla’s ideas have taken some 75 years to reach the mainstream.

I made one of these when I was a kid also, but back then we called it a crystal radio. :)

Nice free-energy device, kid. And it doesn’t have to look like a freaking bomb, either.

Does anyone know how to write this simple looking invention’s plan down? This info needs to be disseminated before it is eliminated along with this wonderful kid.

Correct. He may be confusing the frequency of whatever wavelength hes tapping into with ac power.

Just don’t let him within four feet of a 460V MCC. My LED tester pen lights up when I pass by those. That’s not free energy either.

460V MCC

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Do they still call them ‘buckets’?

Yeah, let some independent scientists and engineers see what is inside the coffee can, and we’ll know very quickly where the energy is really coming from.

It depends. Yes some MCC's are bucket like. But true breaker buckets you rack in and out go to 2,300 Volt transformer rooms.

Rule of death avoidance..........Never rack a bucket in or out under a load. Daily rule of death avoidance............Never pull fuses under a load from a 460V MCC. Last updated and revised death avoidance rule.........Never be in such a rush that you connect a VFD load line to the DC braking terminal screw.

Nonsense. I’ve got a book with the details of all his published inventions, patent applications, blueprints, etc. There are dozens of similar books like that one out there, they hock em in the back of magazines and on every “weird science” website’s banner ads.

I think you’d be hard pressed to find a scientist the details of whose inventions were less publicly available that Tesla!

Bingo. For example, it’s a neat trick to transmit power wirelessly, but as a general power delivery method, it’s unworkable in a society that wants to sell the electricity, because there is no feasible way to measure usage.

Not to reveal all my mistakes in the past decade........

Never slug a motor starter contactor before verifying there is no potential L1,2,3, to ground, or short between L1,2,3.

Perhaps, but that would not be “free energy”, it would just be run of the mill wireless transmission. The only novelty is that he isn’t generating the power himself, but poaching it from those who are already broadcasting it.

There is not a lot of power to be obtained this way. Unless you live very close to a TV transmitter.

Media people are scientifically illiterate mental defectives. They are so easy to sucker with a few charts and parlor tricks. Al Gore made millions doing just that with “An Inconvenient Truth”. This kid will next be seen hawking the “Retro encabulator”.

And never dismiss asking questions when someone comes and asks you for a fish tape. I had an electrician ask me for a fish tape? I gave him a Greenly 50' tape. He then went and fished a wire inside the back of an energized 2,300 Volt distribution panel to an available bucket slot. Unfortunately he didn't explain what he wanted it for? The steel tape crossed phases and there were just shoe prints left in white around a soot scorched concrete floor.

For that you need a fiberglass tape and a damned good reason to be working 2,300 live. You also need to be in your space suit. Gloves and a face shield just won't save you.
