You can stop right there. This step can not be part of a
con. That's the end of the road; at that point we're done. The New
Day has Dawned. No need for transparent panels, save to show
there's no hidden battery anyplace.
And, of course, it's the step we're never going to see.
That step is very much part of the con. Suppose the battery is a red
herring. The energy is coming from a hidden source, and it is
perfectly capable of boosting the capacitor voltage for a time. That
you think that this demonstration would seal it shows that you've
been successfully distracted by the magician. The con could be
extremely sophisticated, the hidden source could provide the boost
needed in a quite measured way, even difficult to detect by measuring
voltages in the system. I believe that it would still be possible to
detect, but it could take very careful measurement, and a more
fruitful approach would be a detailed and very careful examination,
including x-rays, of a working model.
That or multiple fully independent replications, from detailed design
information, perhaps part of a patent application. That's what
patents were supposed to encourage. Full disclosure, in return for protection.
Patent for Design that Increases Run Time of a Battery-Powered Motor.
Design that provides charging current for a battery from rotary motion.
If the essential operating details for an over-unity device are
there, the device is effectively patented without needing to claim
over unity, which becomes a mere new application for a patented
technology. I'm not a patent lawyer, for sure, but that really ought
to be enough.
If you aren't engaged in conning investors.
