My question was “how does it work?”. His answer was …<BR/><I><BR/>Where is the bug?<BR/>- The bad lighting, hiding the boundaries<BR/>- The bad sound, hiding other noises<BR/>- The close-up, hiding all the other equipment in the room<BR/>- The way the machine is manually placed on the table at a very precise spot, twice<BR/>- The way he is holding the machine with his left hand<BR/>- The size which can hold batteries<BR/>- The very flat build of the machine, making possible to connect with a magnet under the table<BR/><BR/>Conclusion:<BR/>- The machine is driven from under the table. The noise of the thing is to hide any motor noise <BR/>- The magnetic coupling is weak (large air gap), that’s why it has to be started by hand<BR/>- At 1:08 in the movie “See if I can get it to synchronise” the amplitude of the noise doubles: something is turned on out of view<BR/>- I don’t expect pressured air drive, makes even more noise<BR/></I><BR/>That was it.<BR/>And I thought to be a skeptic.Ping1400https://www.blogger.com/profile/05945825996144115384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2087544938250245173.post-75489092388787875162008-01-08T06:57:00.000-08:002008-01-08T06:57:00.000-08:00Howdy OC!I'm working on something a touch more pow...Howdy OC!<BR/><BR/>I'm working on something a touch more powerful.

If you stop something from spinning, you remove its angular momentum. The magnetic gear coupling may be one way the energy is transfered rather than lost as heat into his hands. Doing the same experiment with out magnets would help discern this possibility. And it sounds like OC and Al will try it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2087544938250245173.post-21976624985189211812008-01-06T14:52:00.000-08:002008-01-06T14:52:00.000-08:00Ok..

Then he engages the counter magnet. Lets say the magnetic fields are perfectly in sync, we can assume that the energy from the rotor, and two remaining magnets is transferred to the counter magnet, ie the counter magnet is free to accelerate, while the rotor and two magnets - locked magnetically - decelerate, naturally.<BR/><BR/>Now, he stops the two magnets that are in sync with the rotor, which are at this point decelerating with the rotor as it transfers energy into the counter magnet. The rotor now becomes synced and driven by the counter magnet and accelerates.<BR/><BR/>Removing the the two initially synced magnets from the rotor has actually reduced resistance by a huge amount, allowing the counter magnet to accelerate the rotor.<BR/><BR/>A test in spinning just the rotor by hand would not be enough to determine that this is false, because the initial input is the total amount of energy it takes to spin the whole rig, which is magnetically geared into itself.<BR/><BR/>Is this correct? Is this just an example of using magnets to gear something? Or am i completely wrong?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2087544938250245173.post-31679244263915111592008-01-06T10:07:00.000-08:002008-01-06T10:07:00.000-08:00"Al's machine is REAL.

However, it must be validated or no one will believe it."<BR/><BR/>Of course it's real but it's not overunity.<BR/><BR/>Please don't recycle absurd bull crappola from Steorn's playbook. First, these guys do NOT claim overunity. Second, it's very simple to test this or any other device that claims a significant amount of overunity. I've proposed just such a test for Al in the Steorn forum and he agrees with it. You make a run with magnets and then you make a run with bits of identically shaped inert metal instead of the magnets and compare the results under a slight external load. See-- no jury, no delay, no problem.<BR/><BR/>Please-- study some basic physics. There is nothing difficult or time consuming about testing overunity, scientists are not reluctant to get involved (ie. the Kinetica "demo"/fiasco) and the government and big companies are not conspiring to suppress it.

I think there...Thanks BC!<BR/><BR/>I agree it is a flywheel. I think there is a resonance point which has a lower energy state at a higher angular spin than what they started with. It's that simple.<BR/>It could probably be modeled as pure dipoles with the outer ones free to rotate on their axies and inner ones fixed to the wheel. They already found there is an optimal distance between magnets and wheel, so that's pretty good proof to me it is a resonance condition.<BR/><BR/>But it is fun to watch, and the skills of Alsetalokin are worth admiring. That people are still having fun is a very good sign all around!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2087544938250245173.post-42094541085669856032008-01-06T04:34:00.000-08:002008-01-06T04:34:00.000-08:00I think what OC has done is replicate an AC elect...I think what OC has done is replicate an AC electric motor mechanically. Instead of the alternating magnetic field in the stators being driven by current passing through coils, he has used rotating magnets.<BR/><BR/>In an electric motor, electricity is input to generate the alternating field. In this case, he has input the energy by hand. It's basically a fancy flywheel. Friction will cause it to slow down, losing sync, and eventually the device will stop.<BR/><BR/>If levers or whatever are used to keep the stator magnets in sync, this simply adds friction and makes it stop quicker.<BR/><BR/>This perhaps illustrates why the magnetic PMM myth is so enduring, people keep coming up with creative ways to obscure simple physics. This device is as futile as all other PMM devices before it. It can never run continuously, nor could it ever produce useful work.<BR/><BR/>Meanwhile, I hope DrMike gets somewhere with Bussard fusion.bchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12014883276329736216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2087544938250245173.post-18818530570177904612008-01-06T04:18:00.000-08:002008-01-06T04:18:00.000-08:00Al's machine is REAL.
