Without air gaps ?

Yes, as close as possible

If we place a parametric inductance between the capacitors.
At the moment of charge transfer from one capacitor to another, it will increase its inductance.
Then we could be charge into second capacitor more than  was into the first. :)
But we need energy for change its parameter. :'(

Or if you had opposing variable capacitances, you could shuttle the charge back and forth between the two capacitances, conserving the charge, all while powering a resistive load.  This is what Chris Carson was doing I do believe.

Yes.

But again, energy is needed to move the plates apart.

Has anyone considered what effect resonance has in a CLC circuit?


---------------------------
Electrostatic induction: Put a 1KV charge on 1 plate of a capacitor. What does the environment do to the 2nd  plate?

Yes, the CLC energy transfer is already fully resonant, i.e. it happens at the natural LC frequency.

If the plates of the capacitor are not moved from each other, but moved, similar to what is done in a variable capacitor of a radio receiver. Thus reducing the capacity. The attractive forces will be applied to the capacitor bearings. And less force will be needed for the shift. Why won't this work ?

Because force is not energy.
Force times distance is energy.

Even if the force to slide capacitor plates past each other is smaller for the same capacitance change, the distance of that movement is proportionally larger.

A very interesting video detailing Lagace's equipment and plans.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Et5KmCJj7fY

Long leads with crocodile clips = LF or DC thinking.

Lagace's latest video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBisYxSyXhY

Interesting vid, in 2 parts (see photos /screen shots) .
Which part do you all think is most interesting - part 1 with the fluorescent tube, or
Part 2 with the "Russian " noise generator?

I don't have a preference, I am waiting to see what he comes up with  He's getting his act together so we'll see.
However, I do have doubts about his measuring ability.
But I have no doubt we'll all learn something.
