Stealing electricity from the Phone line |
|
|
Is there anyway to utilize the electricity that comes in your phone line? How
effective and how many watts could you draw from the phone line?

Let me guess, you want to charge alkaline batteries? |

I don't know if this is stealing, but you can get free "power" from
common transmitted signals out of thin air by bringing one frequency to
resonance in an LCR configuation.
Power? I'm sure LT 1 "nanowatt"
Measuable voltage? Up to 3 volts with just an antenna and resonance
adjustable circuit from scrap tv/radio parts.
17 million in series? Who knows what's possible.........

I'm sure I've read somewhere that you can only draw a few miliamps
before the phone goes on-hook. After that, it's only a few joules of
energy before the phone company thinks you've spilled water on your
phone or something, and cuts your line off.

Go to the mall and find an outlet. Plug in your battery charger. Other than
that, not really. The power in the phone line is used by the Telco to
determine if your line is off-hook, and to run various lights and
electronics in your phone. It isn't useful for much else without
compromising the use of the phone line you're paying for anyway. |

Um, dude, why? Why would you want to steal something that is so plentiful,
that you can get for free? Here's what you do if you want some free
electricity:
First, get you some magnets. And some wire. You'll need wire. Figure out
some way to make the magnets or the wire move around. They should be close
to each other while they're moving about, and it's important that the motion
be relative. That is, one must be moving while the other stays still. Then
hook whatever it is that you need electricity for up to the wire. It really
is that simple. You can have all the electricity you want, for free, this
way.
Wind is a popular tool for making stuff move. Or running water. Or you
could hook it up to a motor, although that requires running the motor which
will burn gas.
Alternatively there are the no-moving-parts solutions, but the materials for
them can be expensive. I'm referring to solar batteries, and thermocouples
here...
The bottom line is, if you have the resources to sucessfully steal
electricity, then those same resources can be more profitably employed
generating free electricity. Stealing it thus becomes an exercise in
counter-productivity. But then you already knew that, didn't you? You just
wanted to jerk our collective chain. |

You've already used more energy just reading this message than you would be
able to recoup from the phone line or any other 'free source'. How about
buying a photovoltaic panel or a wind turbine? Much more of a challenge...

I wonder if Ben Franklin's friends told him "idiot don't go outside with
that kite" Experiment, play around, have fun, don't kill yourself or
others!

How about a remote controlled inductance-fed-battery-charger-kite flown in
the vacinity of the 25kv transformers used by the electric company. Would
it be stealing?
There is a real power transfer factor, but would it take IE from the
source, i.e.(no pun intended) the field of which dissapates in thin air
anyway?

What if you run three of these in parallel? Would that not increase

Is it possible to run say a hundred LCR circuits in parallel, on one
chip, to produce power by piling up resonnance wattage? And to insure
frequency, maybe use an low power oscillator instead of a RF out of
thin air. So a small battery to initiate the first LCR circuit, and
have a few in cascade formation, one into the other, and at the end,
rectify and feed into a device, such as a laptop for instance.

you can probally get some ok current from a cable jack more than a
phone, ive seen sparks come from those before, but very small ones.
Or better yet make a battery, like volta did, with tissue paper,
vinager, and copper and zinc plates stacked together.

Not enough to do anything with except dial the phone.
At 15 cents a kilowatt-hour, electricity is still
pretty cheap compared to say buying batteries at
rat shack..... |
