Is his claim correct as to wheather the voltage can be filtered and
coupled to do work?

What you seem to have failed to understand is that the _tree_ is not
producing the electricity - it's coming from the gradual destruction of the
metal. Now if you can convince the tree to recharge the battery, you have
an amazing discovery!

How do you get all those trees into series so a decent
voltage can be had for powering my cottage then?

The claim is that no matter how many connections to a single tree are
made that a further volt ( more or less) comes from each connection.
Maybe fifty needle sized connections would produce 12 volts at one amp
, is at least the hope.

How would you get these in series though. This doesn't
work having more than one per tree and I strongly
suspect this stems from one electrode being grounded.

How do you like them apples?
