Obvisouly, 12 florscent tubes cannor be powered by a few lantern < batteries, and there was NO trickery to be seen... it seems that the machine < was actually putting out more energy than it was taking in... < For your information a standard Duracell lantern battery ( 2.5"X2.5"X4.2") will put out 6 volts at 20 amp * Hours. Several of them can put on an impressive demo as long as his device has a low enough power loss. John Eaton !hplabs!hp-pcd!john
