Light Life Ring Ice Experiment
07/21/10

Recording apparent affects on the melting of ice in proximity to a light life ring.

Light Life Rings are simple coils of copper. The copper is cut at specific lengths, twisted, and joined into a ring. (The little beads/balls are just there for fun.) Specific lengths of copper and ratios of those lengths interact with electromagnetism, producing effects which can be observed at our ‘human’ scale. There are some fantastical claims about the affects of these rings. This document describes a simple observational experiment, involving a change of state in water from solid to liquid.

room temperature 87 degrees F
four glasses of equal size at room temperature are arranged on a table
two glasses placed with light life ring on top (L,R)
one glass, on slight riser, in center of light life ring (C)
one glass three feet away (x)

two ice cubes are placed in each glass and the timer is started.

the ice cubes used in the sample were made from carbon filtered phila city water.  the cubes used in the test were, unfortunately, not of uniform size.  The laboratory does not have sufficient equipment to measure small volumes of water accurately, volume variations are estimated.  Cubes C appeared hollow after initial melting, perhaps taking the total volme of water down by one quarter.  Cubes L and R were similar and contained small voids.  Cubes X were simliar to L,R but contained larger voids.
