I never tried it. How does it work?

if you're seriously asking this question you are a few centuries behind or failed grade nine science

O rly? Cant you see that the lightbulp is lighted by 2x "+". So in theory the energy goes back in another battery.

You can charge a battery with the "+"..

A normal battery is 1.5volt so lets say we have 3volt left and 1.5 volt right. You still have a (+/ -) ratio. -->. 3 - 1.5 = 1.5!
If you put a bulb instead of the resistor the bulb will shine =)

I honestly don't know what question it is that you're trying to ask, and only partially because the Batt # labels keep rotating. Are these theoretical batteries? Or are these real batteries like Duracell or Energizer?

Either way, you can't end up with more stored energy at the end than at the beginning. If they're theoretical batteries, then there will be energy losses in the wires, which also carry a non-negligible resistance. If they're real batteries, then you have to understand how energy inside them is generated (chemical electrical). Not all batteries can simply recharge like this. Some will heat up and explode.

Ask a clearer question.


Also, that's not how batteries work. The 3V battery wouldn't simply become a 1.5V battery if you charged something this way. The 3V battery would simply have less stored energy in it, sort of like siphoning gasoline out of a 15 gallon gas tank into an empty 10 gallon gas tank.

a battery is a constant voltage source.
a 1.5 volt battery doesnt have 1.5 volts in it. it discharges 1.5 volts for x amount of time.

...

these are real batteries. it is also called the tesla switch. tesla switch is designed with 4 batteries. 2 parralel and 2 serie.




the main thing is to switch between parralel and serie!


the picture i posted earlier is just to learn u the base

A tesla switch is a theoretical perpetual motion machine. Again, you don't have wires with resistance = 0 ohm, so there's energy lost there.

One thing you might be able to do is use solar powered batteries to charge the other batteries, but then you're receiving energy from an outside source (the Sun), and then you've removed what made this ... thing? interesting to begin with.

Even with this in mind, the first picture still doesn't make any sense.

the first picture has the same function as the second one. Only, the first one tells you how it works and the second one has been built (with 4 batteries instead of 3)
It is also possible to make it with 3 batteries.
if you switch with the 'tesla switch' the same thing is happening with the batteries as in picture 1.
you can switch it with you hand, but that would be nonefficient. The goal is to make it switch at 120hz or even faster (but dont blow op your batteries). You can use a relais or transistors or even a mechanical switch (rotor).
the tesla switch is not a perpetual motion machine. its a circuit that will make your batteries last longer then when you use it like we always do.
using this method (when adjusting it propperly) you can use your batteries up to xx time longer.
using a conductor and a coil will boost up the result.
there have been experiments from the year 1905. These experiments have been verified in the 80's and once again in the year 1995. These expirments indicates that this works.

It's a perpetual motion machine because it either has no energy loss or actually outputs more energy. You're making claims without backing anything up. Do you have evidence that this has been verified?

/e and that first picture is still pretty meaningless. Elementary circuit analysis techniques would still yield the result that no energy is gained from any of those circuits.
