+Our Conclusions:
+
+#The lifter effect is real and repeatable.
+#The effect is ion wind, not antigravity.
+#Weight of the lifter device is very important - it must be as light as possible.
+#Scraping the positive wire is critical for lift.
+#Arcing between the positive and negative capacitor plates occurs with less than 3.5 cm of separation.
+#Conversely, the lift decreases the farther apart the plates are.
+#Playing with high voltage is fun.

JJ and I enjoy a cold beer in celebration of our success.
