The pancake coil.
But the coil is driven by the capacitor, is it not?
The total energy (electric and magnetic) of the coil is equal to the energy of the capacitor.
The energy of a coil is contained in the magnetic field. The formula is e = LI^2. Where e = energy, L = inductance and I = current(magnetic field). However, in this case the capacitor receives extra charge in the shape of the external electric field of the pancake coil. So each time the capacitor is charged it receives more than the previous time.The same applies to the coil.

Again. Where does the energy for the external electric field of the pancake coil come from if not from the capacitor? Something has to provide the energy to create that external electric field. What is the source?

You didn't really answer my question but what I had taken from your reply is that you decided to post this on ATS so people would know about it, so you can't make money out of it.
If so, a strange decision indeed.
If I was you, and if this worked of course, I would seek investment so I could create my own energy company offering extremely cheap energy to the population. You would destroy all competition and do a great service to mankind and the planet.

An inductor does not generate an external electrical field. The field generated by an inductor is magnetic.

A battery would be required to start. After that it's the interaction between the coil and capacitor. The extra energy, which is not accounted for in a normal rcl circuit, comes from the external electric field of the pancake coil. This is possible because of the geometry of the coil and capacitor. Also the proximity of both.
I can't explain it any better than that.
