The post is to present to the Free Republic assemblage of great technical thinkers a concept that seems to be an improbable and irrational prospect but is in fact a real conundrum. A generator has been created that produces the electric wattage to drive an electric motor that causes the rotor of the generator to spin and produce the electric current. Not only does the generator produce the power to run the motor, but it produces a considerable excess for other electric devices. The generator produces free energy, forever.
The video depicting the fabrication and assembly of the generator/motor is below.

As a scientist, the producer chose an elegantly simple collection of new magnets assembled with a magnetically modified electric motor and another electric motor for what amounts to an experiment. His video is an invitation to those so inclined to make the effort to duplicate his hypothesis and results. The video headline says he used an auto alternator but that seems to be incorrect.
The experiment uses the rotor from an old Headon Diaphragm pump motor to which he glues strong neodymium permanent magnets in reversed polarity around the circumference. The brushed rotor is simply fastened to a simple wooden board with a glue gun. At the side of the rotor, a strong toroidal magnet is glued to the board. An electric motor is positioned such that a belt drive connects the motor to the generator.
In a test, the rotor is turned with an electric drill and seemingly unbelievable, the meter indicates 220 volts. The generator is connected to a multiple strip outlet into which the motor is plugged. A drill, a grinder and some light bulbs are also plugged in. The rotor is flipped generating a current thar runs the motor
One thing is certain- if a free energy machine is ever developed, a hot glue gun will be used to build it.
That isn’t FUEL. Magnets moving electrons in wire has efficiency losses, it’s called ‘resistance’. A static magnetic field is performing no work. It has to move to do work. To cause a change in state requires energy.
This is snake oil and barely high school physics.
I’m rather sure the YouTube guy is running a scam. It would be easy to rig the tools shown with internal batteries such that they ran by battery power, and not by the device as it appears.
But why bother?
Maybe he’s a prankster.
Maybe he’s looking for YouTube hits.
Maybe he’s setting up a company that will fleece investors.
Take yer pick.
Maybe I will finally stop getting calls from the solar companies.
Now how do I get rid of the extended auto warranty companies.
It comes from the kinetic energy of the planet. Yes, the planet giving the boost slows by some infinitesimal amount.

So why hasn’t it been made commercially available by someone? Anyone?
I remember hearing something about that a while back. Some guy I think from Florida had come up with a way to do it using solar cells and some kind of catalyst. But then I heard that the military scooped up that idea. As soon as it came out. He was doing some kind of welding using a hydrogen Arc. Then again this was maybe 20 years ago or so. That’s all I know. I do know the Russians are working on it recently.
Are you messing with us? Lol
Yeah, you’re right about that, a small transference of energy. I had forgotten about that. I’m NOT very well versed in physics , lol.
My idea is to chamber human flatulence, then compress with my new (high bypass) turbojet underpants.
... just add re-fried beans, roller skates and...adios!
Will beat the sh t out of a flux capacitor.
I learned as a Cub Scout that if you coiled wire around a screwdriver and attached the wire to a 6 volt battery, the screw driver or nail would become magnetized.
It would appear that the numerous Indian mechanics who have created various similar constant running generators have learned to reverse that process and to use magnets in a process of generating continuous electricity.
You have stored energy in the magnets which is converted into electron flow in the windings. Let's not forget that this "machine" doesn't just take off by itself. You have to exert energy when you spin it to initially make it go. The whole idea on its face is pretty ludicrous when you discover how much horsepower it takes to generate, say, 500 watts with an automotive alternator.
Always, or at least nearly always
Heinlein, not Asimov.
I have a pet unicorn and it is real. LOL
That's not possible. Do some research into how much horsepower it takes to spin an automotive alternator under a load to generate 600 watts.
Thanks for the hilarious entertainment bert!
I was dazzled by this inventors brilliance!
Not only did he find a way to defy the laws of the universe but he also managed to run brushed dc motors from an ac wall wart connected in reverse. How could he do such magic???
(I really really really hope a sarcasm tag isn’t necessary.)
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention he has a battery (DC power) inside the fake power strip.
Did you watch the video...... I’m almost certain you did not.
Had you done so you would have seen the hot glue gun used in several applications to hole the working and stationary parts together.
There was however, no duct tape or bailing wire involved
Bump for later
