Rick always writes what he means and means what he says. He's the guy who sells the Bedini kits, there's a 10 coil monopole kit that they have released, for instance. http://rpmgt.org/order.html The Bedini Monopole Energizer kit was built by a friend and he came to the conclusion that it's only for learning-purposes, and can be taken further (it's possible that mr. Friedrich has upped his ante and knows and understands more about the Bedini monopole tech - and that the 10-pole energizer would be quite worth looking into. But at that price? Not sure how much machining something like that would cost, but they mention it'd be in the tens of thousands of usd? on the page..) Rick also features on the Energy From The Vacuum series as a spectator of Bedini showing his stuff, I think in EFTV12 perchance. The detail here that (I guess) matters, is that Bedini chose Friedrich to make the kits available via, and Friedrich also sells the Renaissance charger devices, and has relations to Bedini's EnergenX -company. It's not a random guy shooting the breeze on a mailinglist, if I'm not completely mistaken, Friedrich maintains some of the monopole lists and is in general a guy who would know what Bedini is up to, and what's next. Looking at what Friedrich wrote about 1/3 of the amps going into the secondary - he is quite probably talking about the secondary batteries that get charged while the primary batteries provide the juice for the transformation process.
