It has been a couple months since the last update The AEFC was temporarily disassembled while waiting for apartment window replacements and for reorganizing the workspace The system ended up split into two sections a standalone large coil in the bedroom and a second assembly that houses a large coil a smaller coil the rectification circuit and the supercapacitor bank For safety I shorted the supercapacitor bank before moving it During this downtime the sections were left unconnected and ungrounded After moving everything back into the studio I measured the bank and found three point three volts across the zero point thirty three farad capacity matching earlier single coil behavior which confirms the device still harvests ambient charge even in partial configuration The diode arrangement suggested by a community member continues to perform well and I remain grateful for that guidance The bank has previously climbed to about eight volts which is enough to energize and transmit from a low power LoRa module showing that the architecture can deliver usable energy with no conventional input The next step is full reassembly so I can resume experiments refine rectifier efficiency track charge rate under different grounding states and log environmental variables such as humidity and coil spacing The goal remains autonomous ambient energy accumulation capable of powering brief data bursts from simple electronics.
