        Doug, 
      
        
        All in due time! Bedini's 
        patented battery charging process puts it to use. 
      
        
        Actually, one does not have 
        to "reprove" that the static field is really like a waterfall, but not 
        like a FROZEN waterfall (using Van Flandern's analogy). Any EM field in 
        space is comprised of photons. By standard physics, a photon in space is 
        moving at light speed, else most of modern physics is totally wrong. 
      
        
        So the photons that COMPRISE 
        the "static" EM field are in constant motion at light speed.  The 
        overall field is "steady", not "static". 
      
        
        Thermodynamically, the field 
        is a nonequilibrium steady state (NESS) system, and there is a 
        thermodynamics of such systems. 
      
        
        Where classical EM theory 
        falls down, is at the source charge. The electrodynamicists admit that 
        the source charge does provide its associated EM fields and potentials, 
        reaching out across the universe. And they admit that the EM fields are 
        comprised of photons.  So by implication, those photons are pouring out 
        of those source charges, unceasingly.  Yet there is no MEASUREABLE 
        energy input! 
      
        
        The answer has been in 
        particle physics since 1957.  The charge polarized the vacuum so that 
        the observable source charge is surrounded by virtual charges of 
        opposite sign in the vacuum. That makes a dipolarity in the "source 
        charge ensemble". 
      
        
        Well, broken symmetry of 
        opposite charges has long been experimentally proven in physics, and was 
        one of the reasons Lee and Yang were awarded the Nobel Prize in 1957 for 
        predicting broken symmetry. 
      
        
        But the asymmetry of that 
        source charge ensemble rigorously means that the ensemble absorbs 
        virtual photon energy continuously from the active vacuum, coherently 
        integrates it into real observable EM energy, and re-emits it as real 
        observable photons in all directions. 
      
        
        The basis for all of it is 
        already long proven and known in particle physics. 
      
        
        In the 46 years since the 
        Nobel Prize award to Lee and Yang, it just has not migrated across the 
        university campus from the physics department to the electrical 
        engineering department, to get them to change their horribly obsolete 
        model that assumes a flat spacetime (falsified since 1916) and an inert 
        vacuum (falsified for many decades). 
      
        
        Cheers,
