Testatika Generator and Over-Unity

The document summarizes a proposed design for an over-unity "Testatika" generator that captures energy from radioactive beta particles. It speculates that the generator described may derive its excess energy from beta particles emitted by radioactive material in spiral wound foil capacitors. It then proposes an alternative design where a radioactive beta source is at the center of a spirally wound conductive foil coil. Magnetic fields would cause the beta particles to spiral outwards, increasing their chances of being captured by the foil and inducing a voltage along its length. The author expresses surprise that this concept for directly capturing energy from radioactive decay has not been investigated before.
