Overunity

A project log for Almost Perpetual Motion

a no (wishful, but it's gonna be close) emission motor

legit, that actually spins. maybe instead of creating something outta nothing, something out of less would be more doable. i dunno, i found that, and he uses clear plastic, so that must go for something.

If over unity were true, then energy would have increased exponentially over time and at some point a big kaboom wiping out the universe.  :P

The best we can hope for is 'unity', and the only way to achieve it is to condense matter to release the energy contained. The sun does this... If you extrapolate it out to super-massive black holes eating each other until only one remains then I suppose it's achievable, eventually. ;-)

'Oh and obviously it stops here because its attracting.' Yeah, thats the point where the machine proves that one end of a magnet is the same strength as the other.

'So I'll be using electromagnets' powered by what exactly, so its a DC motor then, with a commutator that switches at 180 degrees. Inefficient DC motor at that.

AD, Read up on Maxwell's Demon to find out why these things dont work.

Maxwell's equations should suffice.

hint: clear plastic only on the top surface.

Hmmm. Legit? Lets see:

Two people.

Rats nest of crap on a table. Doing this in open air on old tarmac is more convincing...

'Dodgy Connections'....

Large piece of iron rod off camera (Probably has a coil round it).....

Bedini motor configuration (Bedinis are NOT even over-unity, they condition the charged cell to improve it's performance, its a one-time only increase in COP with that cell).....

This is a classic hoax, AD, and not even well implemented.

You dirty old man made me search that term on the googlenet...

It looks like a Joule Thief with the coil replaced with a flywheel, I don't see the point...

"Joule Thief" and/or "Free Energy" are some of the keywords in my noob filter.

"Joule Thief" is working pretty well though. I played with that circuit 15 years ago and I learned a lot :-)

There was a comedy sketch of a famous scholar studying at night using light from fire flies.  "So what do you do all day?"  "Well, I have to catch those fire flies so that I can study at night."

Joule Thief is just like that because of its poor efficient.  At the end of the life, the impedance of the battery is so high that it won't extract much power to compensate for the energy squandered by the low efficiency when the battery was good.  May be better off not using it.  :P
