Capacitor electric Charger power from the air
They say there is current in the sky and stuff. any HAMs familiar with getting shocked off an antenna?
Also what do you think the effects in the environment would be?
Since they say you can use a zig zag of wire i might get a few thousand feet of magnet wire(at the high static voltage and low current thin is ok,plus its safer as its like a giant fuse) and put in on my roof in some kind of asinine tangle
Maybe i could make a voltage divider with one of those gigaohm resistors to measure voltage.
put all the electronics on the roof along with a small regulator and who knows what you could power.
even if its just sensors in a remote area it would still be cool.
EDIT:
this thread would seem to add credibility:

seeing as how they claim it to be a problem(why lie that you have an extra problem)
