The highly OU commercial ambient air energy pumping devices I was

(1000W out for 250W in, the excess coming from ambient air).

I thought this thread was a joke. A heat pump is NOT over unity. Using 
old-fashioned terminology, a heat pump moves heat from a cold 
"reservoir" to a hot one. When you drive a heat engine with the heat 
from the hot reservoir, the heat engine produces less energy overall 
than the heat pump consumed.




Please do not confuse this thread with such heat pumps.  This thread has nothing 
to do with that.  As Michel clearly stated, the "loop closed" thread is 
discussing that typical heat pumps.  Please reply over in the "loop closed" thread.

This thread is about a simple fact that a capacitor is always charged to some 
degree when connected to a noise source such as carbon resistor, less the 
infinitesimal time when the charge changes polarity.
