A fellow researcher with the ZPE Project Group discovered nearly a 12-fold increase in effective power efficiency using a TENS unit (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) to light up a bank of LEDs. 

What the heck is a TENS unit?

TENS devices are used for pain relief and muscle stimulation. They work by sending low-voltage electrical pulses through electrodes placed on the skin in order to stimulate the nerves and block or reduce pain signals traveling to the brain.

In the video below, Richard “Blake” Hasty goes into further detail as to what interested him about the TENS unit (scalar waves) and the various explanation behind this remarkable level of efficiency lighting up LEDs. Yes, it is a method for powering specifically LEDs. More details in video – enjoy!

The following is a summary by researcher Blake Hasty’s of his findings:

The TENS unit delivers biphasic voltage pulses, and I found it capable of powering a bank of 34 LEDs connected in series—each LED requiring roughly 3.2 volts at around 20 milliamps—with a DC battery power input of 9 volts. 

When powered without the TENS unit and ONLY a conventional 9 volt battery, this LED bank lit only 3 LEDs fully. However, with the TENS unit’s biphasic pulses—45V positive and 45V negative pulses roughly 265 microseconds in duration applied simultaneously to opposing terminals—the entire 34-LED bank illuminated vividly under the same current.

This experiment demonstrated nearly a 12-fold increase in effective power efficiency (about 1210%). Attempts to replicate the effect using other TENS units with similar waveforms failed, underscoring the critical nature of the exact pulse shape and timing specific to this unit.

Conclusion:

Based on ongoing research and parallels drawn from the works by Tom Bearden, Floyd Sweet, and the Vacuum Triode Amplifier concept, Blake hypothesizes the circuit operates by establishing a highly polarized environment at the LED’s PN junction. These biphasic signals appear to facilitate coupling with virtual particles in the quantum vacuum field or zero-point energy, thereby enhancing electron-hole recombination and photon emission efficiency beyond classical expectations.

The circuit’s simultaneous positive and negative pulses—each 45 volts for 265 microseconds—interact with the LED’s crystalline lattice. The unidirectional current flow inherent to the LED’s diode junction breaks symmetry, making it a likely site for vacuum energy interactions manifested as amplified light output. This leads to luminous efficiency far exceeding that predicted by simple DC power theory.

Interested in building one?

Below is a summary of the parts involved, as well as a rough outline for putting it all together. I intend to replicate this, with Blake’s help, over the coming weeks. In the meantime, feel free to have at it yourself and lets compare notes!

Parts list:

1. T.E.N.S. unit (TENS 3 model by the brand LibertyMade). No other model or brand has worked except this one so far.  

2. Gator clips & jump wire

3. Four rectifier diodes

4. L.E.D. bulbs

5. Breadboard & jumper cables

Rough diagram of the circuit (below the circuit is a general outline for putting it all together):

Instructions for putting all together:

1. With all of your components now collected, attach one of the included TENS unit probes to the TENS unit. Adjust the 2 knobs on the front of the unit, turn them all the way up. Also turn up the pulse intensity knob, but only for the channel you are using. The TNES unit has two channels, but we will only be using one. 

2. Attach your gator clips to the positive and negative ends of the TENS unit probes, this will make it easier to clip them on to your rectifier leads later. 

3. Now for the rectifier: The diode has a small white line on it to indicate the direction of charge flow. We can refer to this as the positive end of the diode, and the opposite end being the negative.

Charge will flow in the direction of the positive end of the diode. So we’re going to take 2 of our diodes, and connect them together at their negative ends: negative to negative. Then, take the remaining two diodes, and connect them by their negative ends, to the positive ends of the previous diodes. You should now have a string of 4 diodes,

The last step is to connect the positive terminals of your second set of diodes together: positive to positive. You now have an H bridge rectifier.

The end where positive and negative terminals meet, should be used as the AC input, or where you’re going to hook up the leads of your TENS unit:

  • The double negative end of the rectifier is the Negative terminal
  • The double positive end of the rectifier is the Positive terminal

The rectifier is used in this case to clean up the waveform. A performance increase on the brightness of the LEDs was noted during testing with the use of the rectifier, compared to without it. 

4. Connect the positive and negative probes from the TENS unit to the AC input of the diode rectifier (where the positive and negative terminals of the diodes meet together). 

5. Then, connect the negative terminal/cable of your series LED bank to the negative output terminal of your rectifier, and the positive terminal/cable of your LED bank to the positive output side of your diode rectifier. 

6. The led bank should consist of 32 to 34 of your LED lights, wired in series on your breadboard, i.e. positive to negative. 

7. With everything connected, turn the TENS unit on, or if using a DC power supply: set the voltage to 9 volts, and the amperage to 20ma, i.e. .020 amps. 

8. (If using a DC power supply) connect the positive cable of your power supply to the positive terminal of the TENS unit, and the negative cable to the negative terminal of the TENS unit. This is normally where the unit would be powered by a 9v battery. But to really observe the efficiency increase, a DC power supply should be used. 

9. Turn it on, and watch it light up :).  Play around with the pulse width, and frequency and ENJOY!
