My circuit doesn't have a diode external to the power supply. Period. There is no string of blocking diodes which "slam shut". Aaron says these are needed to get his "silent plasma burst", an effect he admits is different than what I'm using. These diodes are not shown in my drawing, or the version of my drawing Aaron put his own name and copyright on.
The circuit I discovered 11 years ago is a simpler approach to the challenge of getting the arc to expand past both grids, for the momentary longitudinal flow onto each grid. My drawing, which I eventually posted in 2005, after discussing it on the Internet as early as 2002, is not a copy of Aaron's more complicated '07 experiments. (No external diode.) He's acting childish, saying, in essence "I didn't steal your thunder, YOU stole MY thunder". What realy torqued me off was his statement: "I've shown many times that three simple discharge points are all that's needed." He never showed anything like that before I showed him the cluster electrode diagram.
When Aaron says my circuit doesn't even work, he's refering to the Phantom Diode effect which quit working years ago, after I burned out my last defibrillator diode. (That BETTER be what he's referring to.) That's when I started using just one capacitor, in series with the coil, as I stated when I posted my circuit to EF. But even with two capacitors, as shown in the version of the drawing with the non essential cap placed across the arc, potentials from the capacitors would not "collide head on" in the arc. They mearly merge and travel in step along the same wire, increasing the current. Aaron's saying that this is how my circuit works is pure disinformation. He lifted that phrase right out of my earlier post, but it only applies to the Phantom Diode effect, not to the drawing with his fradulent copyright.
Aaron had better be ready to prove, in Court, that I ever in my life claimed to have made black sparks.
And it's not polite to call Edward Mitchel a liar just because he posts details which do not support Aaron's stated opinion of how Stan Meyer's system works.
