Nikola Tesla reading a newspaper in his Colorado Springs Lab. • 1908 |
Nikola Tesla had an Electric Pierce Arrow back in 1930, the ICE engine was replaced with an Electric Motor. The power source was a black box of radio tubes, in the glove compartment. The box had an antenna sticking out. Tesla would fool with some tuners and tune in the right frequency and got 240 volts delivered through the air to his car. The car ran almost silent. He had the car stashed in a barn near Niguera Falls. He was sending the energy from the Power Plant, some how. He said this power could be made possible for everyone. J.P.Morgan did not like the idea, because where do you put the meter? Morgan stopped funding and Tesla's Wardencliffe Tower was taken down. We were denied FREE power. Now we pay for gas & SMOG. It was a Pierce Arrow, one of the luxury cars of the period. The engine had been removed, leaving the clutch, gearbox and transmission to the rear wheels undisturbed. The gasoline engine had been replaced with a round, completely enclosed electric motor of approximately 1m in length and 65cm in diameter, with a cooling fan in front. Reputedly, it has no distributor. Tesla was not willing to say who had manufactured the engine. It was possibly one of the divisions of Westinghouse. The "energy receiver" (gravitational energy convertor) had been built by Tesla himself. The dimensions of the convertor housing were approximately 60 x 25 x 15cm. It was installed in front of the dashboard. Among other things, the convertor contained 12 vacuum tubes, of which three were of the 70-L-7 type. A heavy antenna approximately 1.8 metres long, came out of the convertor. This antenna apparently had the same function as that on the Moray convertor (see chapter on Radiant Energy). Furthermore, two thick rods protruded approximately 10cm from the convertor housing. |

Tesla's dream was to have everyone tap into the FREE energy source that could be distrubted through the air, with power station towers in global positions. It could power cars, trains and airplanes, boats, buses, etc.A totally clean safe power source. Makes Nuclear Energy seem down right dangerous. Tesla was taken out |
A few months after this automobile test, and because of the economic crisis at the time, Pierce Arrow had to stop production. It is very likely that the interconnection between the electric motor and the transmission had been performed there. Pierce Arrow's tools were taken over by Studebaker, in South Bend. Not quite 30 years later, that company also vanished to form American Motors, jointly with Nash. Later, some of its fans attempted to resuscitate the Pierce Arrow. Unfortunately, they were not successful. Thus, today that company's name is in a mausoleum, together with others, such as Horch, Maybach, Hispano-Suiza, Bugatti and Isotta Fraschini. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tesla found that =the energy=20peaks at 12 Hz, 500 Khz and their harmonics. That is why I mentioned 12 =Hz. I=20had once thought that Tesla used the vacuum tubes because he was using =aether,=20but after looking at some of his other writtings and experiments with =this=20electricity, it seems as though he built the box to increase the current =of the=20electricity. I'm sure that this is possible and had I a better =understanding of=20vacuum tube technology I would try to explain this in more detail. The =reason I=20believe that his box was in fact built to amplify the current of the =electricity=20is because Tesla had already conducted similar experiments as Jerry =Gallimore=20had and had the same trouble that Jerry Gallimore had with a weak =current. It is=20therefore only logical to conclude that Tesla used this same atmospheric =electricity. This is not only indicated and supported by Tesla's notes =and=20diagrams, but his methods resemble the later experiments of others like =Jerry=20Gallimore to such a degree that it is silly to conclude that they were =not using=20the same kind of electricity and obtaining it from the same source. All =Tesla=20needed after tunning in the peak voltage frequency was to increase, or =amplify=20the current by some means. That is why I believe that Tesla built the =converter=20box not to convert or draw power from the aether, but to amplify the =current of=20the electricity that he was recieving from the air.
