After having the information at my web sites about the Joe Cell and it's claim to be a free energy device.

Guide to the Joe cell

I have been finally able to get time to check some of the details out for myself although I have a long way to go to fit and get one working in a car as yet.

But what I have done so far seems to check out with what I have learnt from the original source of this material.

Apart from the solar panel everything is relatively cheap and this could be put together to try it out for your self for less than $40 Australian.

The most expensive part was the stainless steel plates at about $15,the plastic container at about $5

and the cutting board that I made the metal supports from at about $6.00 and some clips at $4.00 and some insulated copper wire from the junk box.

Not having a decent power supply I used a somewhat lesser source of power namely a BP solar panel module that claims 30 watts 17 volts at 2.5 amps.

( The original author of the Joe cell article at my web site from memory claims a much stronger power supply is needed. )

The seven stainless plates were some that I got last year from a wine tank maker and were cut using a normal cutting wheel and I have had them stored in the dark in a vinegar solution for over a year now.

Their plate size is approximately 4 inches by 4 inches by 1/8 inch thick and is food grade stainless steel. Or 10 cm by 10cm by 2cm approx

They are mounted on some cheap cutting board PVC and grooves have been cut in the plastic support each to allow a tight fit when the stainless plates are pressed into it.

The plates are mounted one inch apart from one another althought other harmonic values could be applied here.

No additional fasteners were used to hold all the plates in place.

The whole unit was placed into a ten litre plastic kitchen container filled with approximately 8.5 to 9 litres of rainwater water to which has been added 1/4 cup of cooking soda (calcium carbonate).

A negative lead from the solar panel was clipped on top of the centre metal plate and the positive lead were made likewise to be in contact with both the outer unit plates at each end.

On doing so bubbles were noticed to issue from the two outer metal plates and a much stronger discharge from the centre plate as would be expected in normal electrolysis.

The middle plate and the outer plate gas released seem to be coming to the surface and then disappearing into the air around it.

viewed from the side showing the plates inserted into plastic supports and wiring connection

After some time later bubbles were also see coming from the other four neutral plates to which no electrical contract was seemingly or knowingly made.

The bubbles on these plates seemed only to be coming from those neutral plates and not coming via the other plates connected within the electrical circuit..

I also noticed some bubbles gathering on the plastic inner surface of the water container as well although no gas trail seem to be taking them there.

Other bubbles were also seen to attached to all metal plates and all these bubbles seemed not to want to leave the plates and all plastic surfaces even though I shook the outer container several times to try to shake them loose.

The only way to remove the bubbles was take the entire unit from the plastic container.

I then put the unit into a smaller plastic container but it did not work as well this may be due to sunlight levels effecting the efficiency of the solar panel in the later autumn afternoon.

Up to now I have not noticed large bubbles forming but this could be due to the low power levels I was using and the wind blowing over my experimental set up at the time.

I did however notice bubbles were still coming from the plates when the power had been disconnected for a short time and most of the bubbles also remained attached under the water level at the same time.

From my limited experiment I am convinced that there's something unusual happening here but not sure what.

This experiment is not be confused with the construction of the actual Joecell but as pointer in that direction

More later.

If you have not done I suggest you check out the full details about the Joecell at.

RUNNING CARS ON ZERO POINT / ORGONE ENERGY.

The car experiments were carried out on

Please take note the photographs were taken from a video showing a test unit made of glass and stainless steel to give you some idea of what the units look like ,Later and better units were said to have been made totally out of stainless steel (food grade only ).

A plastic unit was claimed to have been constructed but was discontinued due to possible dangers invovled.

This danger was found to have been avoided when units were constructed in rigid stainless steel.

This is only a brief overview and description of the JOE device.

It seems to have some things in common maybe with the Stanley Meyers concepts but does not seem to need the complex electronics that Stan is said to have used, and also it seems that the Joe's unit can be built by anyone with access to food grade stainless steel and some home workshop tools.

The ability to run cars without fuel of any type has been claimed to have been done and is claimed also to have been demonstrated here in Australia although I haven't seen it myself apart from the video

The test unit mounted in the car the normal fuel line was removed notice the reading on the

vacuum gauge

The person that discovered this device also has claimed to have been harassed and threatened by some idiots and maybe vested interests.

They also stole all of thise 'Wizards' gear out of his shed. It only goes to show, it is gutless idiots that do this type of stuff. They must want us all to die from pollution and poisoning.

The inventors name has not been released to me apart from being called Joe.

I will call him the 'WIZARD'.

This persons work is along the same lines a William Reich.

more recent info on the Joe cell as of June 6 1999 and of William Reich website locations BASICS of the ivention:

When a automotive engine runs on a fuel, the incoming air's characteristic frequency changes because it interacts with the fuel. As the fuel travels along the manifold with the air it starts to spread(ATOMISATION) this give a greater contact area with the air .

The unit under test on the work bench notice the negative terminal at bottom of jar and the twin

positve leads in the top of open glass jar and connected to stainless cylinders.

When the mix is in the chamber and the spark plug fires the air returns to its low frequency, releasing energy.

Some of the gases in the air have to react with the fuel to lower the fuels energy state. This is the pollution bit.

What if we could increase the frequency and the energy of the incoming air without fuel. That would mean NO pollution in the end process.

another view of glass test unit mounted in automobile

This is what the 'Wizard' has done. The device is simple in principle, but without the right knowledge of the materials required and the correct characteristics of each material it will not work. The cell consists of stainless steel tubes 1,2,3,4 inches in diameter a outer casing again Stainless steel 5 inches in diameter no welding can be done any where on the unit.

The ends should be dome type and presses on to the outer case when complete. The top has a 3/4 inch hole tapped in it to allow a aluminium delivery tube to be screwed in. The bottom has a hole drilled in it to allow a electrode to pass through the case without electrical contact.

close up view of the glass unit prior to being charged

All insides of the tubes should be as polished as possible without the use of chemical or abrasive or steel brushes.(elbow grease and vinegar) The inner tubes are insulated from each other and the 1 inch one is connected to the bolt through the bottom.

The delivery tube and outer case must be isolated from the rest of the car. The deliver tube runs towards the carby or throttle body. At about 4 inches from the air metering device(carby or throttle)the aluminium stops and a piece of rubber hose connects to BLANK fitting on the device without hose clamps.

The cell is filled with specially charged water and the timing is adjusted over a couple of days. At the end the fuel is cut off all together and the motor will be running with a advance between 25 and 80 degrees. Cast iron engines are the hardest to do.

This photo taken just a current is beig applied notice the gas bubbles being formed, a few

seconds later the entire glass is filled with a white mass of bubbling foam

Aluminium is the easiest to do. Some aluminium engines one take a day of driving to completely cut over. The exhaust is ice cold, the radiator has ice on it and it has twice the power of a petrol engine. I believe it may be worthwhile to remove the water from the block and replace it with Auto Transmission Fluid as it freezes at a much lower temperature.

I would expect that the water pump vanes would need to be clipped or drilled to decrease efficiency and drag in the oil. The bolt on the bottom is connected to the chassis. This may seem too simple but if done correctly it works.

Iam currently working on my VN commodore and my other project is a turbocharged intercooled 13B rotary. I do not know what is going to happen with the turbocharged engine.

If I can make it work there will not be a engine that couldn't be converted including diesel's (replace injectors with spark plugs and electronic timing unit about $440).Imagine ever truck and car in Australia using no fuel creating no pollution.

A wonderful place, however the government and fuel companies will do every thing that they can to stop us the people. I thought that they are our servants.(I wish)

This cell functions as a tree does, it is a biocapacitor or a self charging capacitor like the "ARK of Covenent" to stop the charging you must enclose the capacitor in Aluminium.

Added Benefits: Your car will not rust the paint will not oxidise the oil will last many times longer the energy around the car will keep you healthy and heal your ills.

WATER:

The water used must be as clean as possible and alive ( none treated water) once it is energised via a special process the water can be used in the cell.

All the impurities will be removed with this process that uses low voltage electricity.

There has been some other written work on this subject however I believe that none of the money raised by the sale of this information has been given to 'Wizard' to help recover from his losses.

They do give him credit but he should get something for his trouble. This idea alone could be worth Billions world wide. The 'Wizard' has many other wonderful inventions however the world may not be ready for them yet.

Stainless Steel Specifications

As Copied from http://www.sppusa.com/reference/white_paper/wp_ss.html

As Joes devices uses a special grade of stainless steel it may be of

interest to intending builders of the device to know the differences and

types

Stainless Steel

Stainless steel is primarily when corrosion or oxidation are a problem. The

function that they perform cannot be duplicated by other materials for

their cost. Over 50 years ago, it was discovered that a minimum of 12%

chromium would impart corrosion and oxidation resistance to steel. Hence

the definition "Stainless Steels", are those ferrous alloys that contain a

minimum of 12% chromium for corrosion resistance. This development was the

start of a family of alloys which has enabled the advancement and growth of

chemical processing and power generating systems upon which our

technological society is based. Subsequently several important sub-

categories of stainless steels have been developed. The sub-categories are

austenitic, martensitic, ferritic, duplex, precipitation hardening and

super alloys.

Austenitic Grades

Austenitic grades are those alloys which are commonly in use for stainless

applications. The austenitic grades are not magnetic. The most common

austenitic alloys are iron-chromium-nickel steels and are widely known as

the 300 series. The austenitic stainless steels, because of their high

chromium and nickel content, are the most corrosion resistant of the

stainless group providing unusually fine mechanical properties. They cannot

be hardened by heat treatment, but can be hardened significantly by cold-

working.

Straight Grades

The straight grades of austenitic stainless steel contain a maximum of 8%

carbon. There is a misconception that straight grades contain a minimum of

3% carbon, but the spec does not require this. As long as the material

meets the physical requirements of straight grade, there is no minimum

carbon requirement.

"L" Grades

The "L" grades are used to provide extra corrosion resistance after

welding. The letter "L" after a stainless steel type indicates low carbon

(as in 304L). The carbon is kept to .03% or under to avoid carbide

precipitation. Carbon in steel when heated to temperatures in what is

called the critical range (800 degrees F to 1600 degrees F) precipitates

out, combines with the chromium and gathers on the grain boundaries. This

deprives the steel of the chromium in solution and promotes corrosion

adjacent to the grain boundaries. By controlling the amount of carbon, this

is minimized. For weldability, the "L" grades are used. You may ask why all

stainless steels are not produced as "L" grades. There are a couple of

reasons:

"L" grades are more expensive

Carbon, at high temperatures imparts great physical strength

Frequently the mills are buying their raw material in "L" grades, but

specifying the physical properties of the straight grade to retain straight

grade strength. A case of having your cake and heating it too. This results

in the material being dual certified 304/304L; 316/316L, etc.

"H" Grades

The "H" grades contain a minimum of 4% carbon and a maximum of 10% carbon

and are designated by the letter "H" after the alloy. People ask for "H"

grades primarily when the material will be used at extreme temperatures as

the higher carbon helps the material retain strength at extreme

temperatures.

You may hear the phrase "solution annealing". This means only that the

carbides which may have precipitated (or moved) to the grain boundaries are

put back into solution (dispersed) into the matrix of the metal by the

annealing process. "L" grades are used where annealing after welding is

impractical, such as in the field where pipe and fittings are being welded.

Type 304 The most common of austenitic grades, containing approximately 18%

chromium and 8% nickel. It is used for chemical processing equipment, for

food, dairy, and beverage industries, for heat exchangers, and for the

milder chemicals.

Type 316 Contains 16% to 18% chromium and 11% to 14% nickel. It also has

molybdenum added to the nickel and chrome of the 304. The molybdenum is

used to control pit type attack. Type 316 is used in chemical processing,

the pulp and paper industry, for food and beverage processing and

dispensing and in the more corrosive environments. The molybdenum must be a

minimum of 2%. Type 317 Contains a higher percentage of molybdenum than 316

for highly corrosive environments. It must have a minimum of 3% "moly". It

is often used in stacks which contain scrubbers.

Type 317L Restricts maximum carbon content to 0.030% max. and silicon to

0.75% max. for extra corrosion resistance.

Type 317LM Requires molybdenum content of 4.00% min

Type 317LMN Requires molybdenum content of 4.00% min and nitrogen of .15%

min Type 321

Type 347 These types have been developed for corrosive resistance for

repeated intermittent exposure to temperature above 800 degrees F. Type 321

is made by the addition of titanium and Type 347 is made by the addition of

tantalum/columbium. These grades are primarily used in the aircraft

industry.

Martensitic Grades

Martensitic grades were developed in order to provide a group of stainless

alloys that would be corrosion resistant and hardenable by heat treating.

The martensitic grades are straight chromium steels containing no nickel.

They are magnetic and can be hardened by heat treating. The martensitic

grades are mainly used where hardness, strength, and wear resistance are

required. Type 410 Basic martensitic grade, containing the lowest alloy

content of the three basic stainless steels (304, 430, and 410). Low cost,

general purpose, heat treatable stainless steel. Used widely where

corrosion is not severe (air, water, some chemicals, and food acids.

Typical applications include highly stressed parts needing the combination

of strength and corrosion resistance such as fasteners.

Type 410S Contains lower carbon than Type 410, offers improved weldability

but lower hardenability. Type 410S is a general purpose corrosion and heat

resisting chromium steel recommended for corrosion resisting applications.

Type 414 Has nickel added (2%) for improved corrosion resistance. Typical

applications include springs and cuttlery.

Type 416 Contains added phosphorus and sulfer for improved machinability.

Typical applications include screw machine parts.

Type 420 Contains increased carbon to improve mechanical properties.

Typical applications include surgical instruments.

Type 431 Contains increased chromium for greater corrosion resistance and

good mechanical properties. Typical applications include high strength

parts such as valves and pumps. Type 440 Further increases chromium and

carbon to improve toughness and corrosion resistance. Typical applications

include instruments.

Ferritic Grades

Ferritic grades have been developed to provide a group of stainless steel

to resist corrosion and oxidation, while being highly resistant to stress

corrosion cracking. These steels are magnetic but cannot be hardened or

strengthened by heat treatment. They can be cold worked and softened by

annealing. As a group, they are more corrosive resistant than the

martensitic grades, but generally inferior to the austenitic grades. Like

martensitic grades, these are straight chromium steels with no nickel. They

are used for decorative trim, sinks, and automotive applications,

particularly exhaust systems.

Type 430 The basic ferritic grade, with a little less corrosion resistance

than Type 304. This type combines high resistance to such corrosives as

nitric acid, sulfur gases, and many organic and food acids.

Type 405 Has lower chromium and added aluminum to prevent hardening when

cooled from high temperatures. Typical applications include heat

exchangers.

Type 409 Contains the lowest chromium content of all stainless steels and

is also the least expensive. Originally designed for muffler stock and also

used for exterior parts in non-critical corrosiveenviornments.

Type 434 Has molybdenum added for improved corrosion resistance. Typical

applications include automotive trim and fasteners.

Type 436 Type 436 has columbium added for corrosion and heat resistance.

Typical applications include deep-drawn parts.

Type 442 Has increased chromium to improve scaling resistance. Typical

applications include furnace and heater parts.

Type 446 Containes even more chromium added to further improve corrosion

and scaling resistance at high temperatures. Especially good for oxidation

resistance in sulfuric atmospheres.

Duplex Grades

Duplex grades are the newest of the stainless steels. This material is a

combination of austenitic and ferritic material. This material has higher

strength and superior resistance to stress corrosion cracking. An example

of this material is type 2205. It is available on order from the mills.

Precipitation Hardening Grades

Precipitation hardening grades, as a class, offer the designer a unique

combination of fabricability, strength, ease of heat treatment, and

corrosion resistance not found in any other class of material. These grades

include l7Cr-4Ni (17-4PH) and l5Cr-SNi (15-5PH). The austenitic

precipitationhardenable alloys have, to a large extent, been replaced by

the more sophisticated and higher strength superalloys. The martensitic

precipitation-hardenable stainless steels are really the work horse of the

family. While designed primarily as a material to be used for bar, rods,

wire, forgings, etc., martensitic precipitation-hardenable alloys are

beginning to find more use in the flat rolled form. While the

semiaustenitic precipitation-hardenable stainless steels were primarily

designed as a sheet and strip product, they have found many applications in

other product forms. Developed primarily as aerospace materials, many of

these steels are gaining commercial acceptance as truly cost-effective

materials in many applications.

Superalloy Grades

Superalloys are used when 316 or 317 are inadequate to withstand

attack.They contain very large amounts of nickel and/or chrome and

molybdenum. They are usually much more expensive than the usual 300 series

alloys and can be more difficult to find. These alloys include Alloy 20 and

Hastelloy.

The Joe Cell Matrix

Using The Joe Cell Matrix With the square matrix of figure1 all line row, column and diagonal values = 255. No matter which way you add all the columns, rows or diagonals they will

always add up to the single line value of 255. Also the 4 inner cells ( 51.0, 71.4, 56.1 & 76.5) all add to 255. The 4 outer most corners of the1st.outer ring (25.5, 86.7, 40.8 & 102) also add to the value 255. This function then creates a centre cross over the square/matrix when viewing only these associated values.

Other important functions of the matrix : Step Value = 5.1. Start Level = 25.5 Line Value = 255 Total Sum = 1020 Options = 10 ( 4 x rows + 4 x columns + 2 x diagonals) Inner Ring = 255 x 1 = 255 (Centre) Outer 1st Ring = 255 x 3 = 765

CYLINDER VALUES

If we use these values in a simple metric coordinate system we can apply millimetre suffix to these and can then apply them as the diameters, length and thickness of the cylinders. With hind sight, there are four cylinders in the Joe Cell, therefore there needs to be four (4) individual values, hence the matrix must be 4 x 4. Because we are also using volume (3D), each value must exist on both the X & Y planes, thus the reason why I believe we use the diagonal. I will try to explain further why I believe this X,Y, Z 3D functions the way it does at the end of this document.

DERIVING VALUES FROM THE MATRIX

Using the left diagonal from the matrix of figure 1

we have the values: 25.5 51.0 76.5 102

CYLINDER DIAMETER :

We can convert the above diagonal values directly to the metric coordinate system. So the values now become :

25.5 mm Dia. 51.0 mm Dia. 76.5 mm Dia. 102 mm Dia.

CYLINDER LENGTH :

We now know the 'line value' of the balance square is 255. This can be used as the constant length of each cylinder which equals 255mm

So the value becomes :

255 mm length

CYLINDER THICKNESS :

The wall thickness of each cylinder (pipe) may be taken from the ratio of the diagonal values. Starting from the smallest inside cylinder working out to the largest outer cylinder. That is

We normally don't use decimal placing in a

square matrix, as nature does not use decimals or fractions of a whole. But in the matrix of figure 1 we are using a dimension value which was taken from an actual physically measure. Stainless steel piping comes in 'outside diameter' values very close to the values expressed in the matrix. I wanted absolute accuracy to allow others to understand or be able to modify from these values. If I where using physical material volume and not measurement math, I would use whole values in the matrix. I could still use integer or whole math by simply removing the decimal point of the matrix values and replacing the decimal point when I derive the new cylinder physical values from the matrix.

25.5/5.1 , 51.0/25.5 , 76.5/51.0 , 102/76.5 (See figure 2 below.)

figure 2

I guess you could try to average the above values an use them as a constant cylinder thickness. (5 + 2 + 1.5 + 1.3 ) / 4 = 2.45 mm . I'm experimenting with a constant 1.5 mm thickness.

Most stainless steel pipe sizing and grades come

with a constant ratio of thickness e.g. 1.5, 1.75, 2.0 an so on. You may like to try an experiment with different constants or you may use the above ratio if you desire. There is another ratio you could apply to derive the above cylinder thickness, but it brings in the hypothetical next cell value from the above square. (See figure 3 below.) The black border around the 127.5 value designates the hypothetical next diagonal cylinder value from a larger matrix.(larger matrix not shown.)

figure 3

If the constructor is using the hypothetical next cylinder value, this will give the cylinder ratio values as : 1: 51.0/25.5, 2 : 76.5 /51.0, 3 : 102/76.5, 4 : 127.5/102.0 [127.5 = hypothetical next cell value.] I have only mentioned the above hypothetical next cell value here in case people wish to try it ?

SUMMATION & FREQUENCY:

Why use the left diagonal ?

As I believe the Natural order of the 3D universe is the balance of two forces (binary). The 3rd state could be the differential summation point, balance zero point or rest state of these two opposing forces. To have something exist it must be present on the X plane as well as exist on the Y plane (binary). When these two forces meet or combine by sum difference or force charge they force the third plane Z into existence. By two natural forces combining the energy must go some where, so it moves at any angle on the Z plane. So as I believe binary then becomes trinary (3D). This is also evident with matrices: as the X & Y plane move/intersect they create the diagonal Z plane. So we can then represent a frame of motion (matrix) on a 2D sheet of paper as a map of 3D. I therefore believe Prof. J.R.R. Searl may use the left diagonal for this reason also. There is also a mirror image-opposite of two triangle halves when balancing all matrices. Prof. Searl also uses many other functions and options from with in all matrices.

Points to Remember: If the input is random the output will be order. (As in the square in figure 1=255.) If the input is order the output will be random. (As in the unbalance matrix.)

The Line value of the Matrix is 255.

Inner Ring = 255 x 1 = 255 Outer 1st Ring = 255 x 3 = 765

Total summation value becomes 4 x 255 = 1020 This value can be converted to the Hertz frequency :

1020 Hz

This cell might or at least should give out a frequency or pulse at 1020 Hz ?

Some one may like to check this frequency against the harmonics of the vehicles ignition coil. The now mathematically tuned cell may work better or worse with resonance of the ignition coil ?

CONCLUDING:

Using the values from the matrix of figure 1 we can tabulate the following:

Cyl. O/Dia. mm

Len. mm

Thick mm

Inner/Vol. mm

1 25.5 255 5 48116

2 51.0 255 2 442410

3 76.5 255 1.5 1081943

4 102 255 1.3 1978804

The Joe Cell matrix of figure 1 could have just as easily been worked out on volume. I leave this up to other people to experiment with the different values an matrices.... I hope the above matrix material is simplified enough for all people to understand. Please share your findings with all other people, and please don't forget to share your findings with me as well!...

In case people have not noticed, all square matrices have two triangle halves that make up the total square. The upper triangle is the mirror image-opposite of the lower triangle. The triangles usually separate along the left diagonal. This mirror image-opposite function is not always obvious with every matrix. When using any unbalance square matrix, the right upper triangle is always greater in sum value than the lower left triangle, until you balance the square matrix. You may not notice the mirror image opposite triangles first up as some matrices do not display this right away. You may like to view the sporting draw matrix for a better visualisation into the mirror opposite function. At times you may need to understand this mirror image-opposite function to be able to apply it in mapping a matrix to a reality system.

Water as a Storage Medium

The Joe Cell uses water as a storage medium, which, when charged above a certain threshold, collects additional energy as needed by the engine. The initial charge is not depleted as the engine runs, but will dissipate under certain conditions. This matches a key attribute of the biodynamic ether, which attracts more ether to itself once the local concentration reaches a certain threshold. Without adequate boundaries (or storage conditions) the etheric charge build-up will dissipate.

"Implosion" as a Motive Reaction

The motive reaction in the engine seems to be *implosion*, since the ignition timing must be advanced so far into the compression stroke. (Note that 80 degrees is nearly 2/3 of a typical compression cycle, which totals about 135 degrees in a 4 stroke engine.) Implosion may be considered equivalent to "a sudden condensation of the ether" which is also thought to be the motive reaction that creates lightning and thunder in the atmosphere. According to Biodynamic researchers, condensation is a state change from a more rarefied ether into a less ratified one, releasing energy in the process. Biodynamics deals with four states of ether which are equivalent to the four elements intuited by ancient philosophers:

Warmth Ether corresponds to the Fire element Light Ether corresponds to the Air element Tone Ether (or "Chemical Ether") corresponds to the Water element Life Ether corresponds to the Earth element

In the physical world, substance tends to flow from a high potential to a low potential. This is what the concept of "entropy" and the Second Law of Thermodynamics are based on. But in the etheric world of living energies, the inverse is true. Ether is naturally attracted to itself and flows from low potential to high potential. This is why living organisms continue to draw nutrients and life forces into themselves while the rest of the world is supposedly running down. Ether penetrates substance, and substance influences ether. This dynamic interplay is essential to life on the physical plane. Under favorable conditions, the following etheric condensations will occur:

Warmth Ether --> Light Ether, releasing energy as lightning Light Ether --> Tone Ether, releasing energy as thunder Tone Ether --> Life Ether, releasing energy as biological manifestation

Recall that lightning and thunder sometimes occur independently of each other (as in "heat lightning" and "rolling thunder"), while at other times they are closely linked. Clearly any reasonable explanation for these phenomena must allow for both cases. The common notion that lightning and thunder are caused by static discharge between air masses is clearly untenable. A buildup of static charge in such magnitudes could only occur under extremely dry conditions; the typical thunderstorm is certainly not dry. The biodynamic researcher points to a well-defined cumulus cloud in mid-summer as the ideal collector of etheric energy. Hour by hour it grows, drawing abundant warmth ether from the atmosphere into itself as well as particles of dust and moisture. The cloud builds itself taller and taller, its boundaries sharply distinct from the rest of the sky. Eventually the cloud becomes saturated, turning darker and forming a mighty thunderhead. At this point, anyone who is familiar with weather patterns in open country is headed for shelter. They know that a violent thunderstorm could be unleased at any moment. Just a few months ago the author observed such a phenomena in central Maryland. The top of the cloud was puffy and brilliant white, illuminated by the late afternoon sun. In contrast, the bottom was flat and dark, laden with moisture. Great bolts of lightning began to crackle about its upper regions. The air felt clear and energized while all around trees were bending and twisting in sudden gusts of wind. When the storm finally broke it was both fearsome and beautiful, a mighty discharge of lightning, thunder, and rain. We can surmise that the Joe Cell becomes highly charged with etheric energy and that this charge is transferred through the carburetor to the air entering each cylinder. As the compression stroke begins the volume of air is compressed, causing a further concentration of etheric charge. Soon the air becomes saturated with ether. At this point conditions in the cylinder are similar to those within the thunderhead. The ignition spark, far advanced into the compression stroke, serves to catalyze a condensation reaction of the compressed ether. This sudden change of state causes the air mixture to contract sharply, generating power through the remainder of the compression stroke. Therefore the air mixture in each cylinder undergoes a structural change, not a chemical one, and the flywheel is driven by *suction* rather than combustion. With the exception of small amounts of vapor from engine oil and perhaps trace elements from the engine and muffler, the exhaust should be of substantially the same quality as the air intake. Since warmth ether is the most rarefied ether, condensation will have the effect of reducing or consuming warmth. Therefore implosion is a cool process, which tends to absorb heat rather than release it. This matches observations of the Joe Cell in which the engine runs cold. Unlike combustion, implosion is a "living" process, and as such produces no waste heat or by-products.

An Enhanced Orgone Accumulator

All three styles of Joe Cell are based on concentric, insulated cylinders. This is similar to the classic "orgone accumulator" discovered by Wilhelm Reich. Reich found that metals tended to conduct ether while organic materials tended to absorb it. By layering the two types of materials together, Reich caused a directional flow of ether to occur. The orgone accumulator

was a six-sided box constructed with alternating layers of metal and non-metallic materials. The inclusion of a 1.5 volt battery to maintain the charged condition (and a 12 volt battery to create it) is an interesting variation on the orgone accumulator design. There is precedent for this idea in electrogravity documentation that has become available in recent years. (See the USAF report "Electrogravitic Systems" that was released in 1995 as well as patents by T. Townsend Brown.) The basic idea is that a charged condenser exhibits a tendency to move towards its positive terminal. This is thought to result from a net movement of ether in the opposite direction (from positive to negative). Therefore a static electric charge stimulates a directional flow of ether. The Joe Cell design implies a net movement of ether from positive to negatively charged terminals (i.e. towards the center of the cell and towards the engine).

Transfer of Energy to the Carburetor

The transfer of energy to the carburetor is accomplished by several different conductors including plastic, copper, aluminum and rubber tubing. The common material in all of these configurations is the *air* inside the tubing. This is consistent with the biodynamic view that oxygen is an excellent carrier of etheric forces. (Fertile soils are said to contain 50% air for just this reason.) The metallic carburetor housing would conduct the etheric energy to its interior surfaces, where incoming air would absorb it and carry it into the cylinders.

Conclusions

In conclusion, the Joe Cell offers a compelling view of how ordinary combustion engines might be modified to run on natural etheric energy. This could be an important direction for future research. Validation of the concept could be approached in three phases:

1. Collecting a high concentration of etheric charge. For some ideas on how to accomplish this, see Geometric Energy Fields which includes specific instructions for building resonant etheric devices. 2. Stimulating a sudden condensation of ether by means of electric spark and measuring the implosion effect in a pressurized container. 3. Achieving reproducible evidence of successive implosion events within a small engine mounted for laboratory testing.
