Electronic Rust Protection (Couplertec) - Does it work?

[Mr Ed]

KDog, being of the scientific persuasion, finds factual and informative posts somewhat humerous.

Hi guys we have noticed that there is a lot of miss-information being contributed to this forum and we would like to help
with any concerns/questions.Below is a short description aimed at the two most common misunderstandings we have found on forum threads.

WHAT CAN BE PROTECTED?
CouplerTec’s Patented ‘Capacitive Coupling Technology’ is an Electronic corrosion process that can be used on any mobile or
fixed above ground (non-submerged) application such as; motor vehicles (cars, trucks buses), heavy machinery/equipment
(tractors, forklifts, graders. loaders, dozers, excavators and cranes etc), towers, generators and sheds. Almost any above
ground metal structure can be protected using CouplerTec’s Patented Capacitive Coupling Technology.

THE COUPLERTEC DIFFERENCE!
CouplerTec’s Patented Capacitive Coupling Technology is demonstrably different from more traditional forms of electronic
corrosion control because it was specifically designed from the outset to operate in an open air environment, unlike Impressed
Current Cathodic Protection (ICCP) which requires a relatively abundant conductive medium (moist soil or water) completely
surrounding the metal object being protected.

Please feel free to contact us on free call 1800 667 878 for any more information or If you have any further questions.

Please explain how it works?

[BigMuz]

Explain why these devices are banned in most of the world?

Describe the way an applied current works without an earth path.

[rowdytoot]

in what way is this better than rubbing the whole vehicle with the oil of a snake, which I can also afford?

Nice to see you here.
Any chance of providing a kit so I can do some independant testing?

Please direct us to your published patent. I am very interested in your service and/or product.

why not just have a sacrificial anode of magnesium?

why not just have a sacrificial anode of magnesium?

Won't work without water contact, like with a boat..

[Greg Rust]

So it uses capacitors, then what?

[rowdytoot]

here is the patent FWIW (nothing)

This should be good...

lol.

you're lucky we have the ACCC, who do nothing.

also, if you can register a trademark referring to Air as an Airlectrolye (sic) your literature may have some creedance.

also converting paint into a capacitive dielectric? maybe between the contact plates themselves, to a small extent, but nowhere else. i dont want an entire cars surface area storing charge at 400V to discharge through me when i go to open the door... luckily, you need to have an applied electric field on boths sides of the dielectric gap for this to occur. which is does not.

Let's keep it civil. Cheers.
