How to Build a Free Energy Magnetic Motor

Ovidiu Sandru — Mon, 18 Mar 2019 04:15:24 +0000

Many have tried building a free energy-producing magnetic motor. I am seeing a lot in my daily quest through alternative energy news, but what I have learned is that energy is not free, perpetual motion machines do not exist, everything is taken from somewhere and put elsewhere. Free energy from magnets respects the same rule. […]

How to Build George Green’s Magnetic Motor With Magnets and Scotch Tape

Ovidiu Sandru — Tue, 18 Jul 2017 04:37:07 +0000

Magnetic motors are something every DIYer should experiment. Some say they are endless sources of free energy, some say they aren’t. The fact is that they need an outside energy source since magetic fields are just what the name suggests – fields. They are closed loops and do not produce mechanical work by themselves, without […]

New Japanese Magnet Has Fewer Electrons, Leads to More Efficient Energy Tech

Leigh Hutchens — Sat, 19 Jan 2013 06:12:22 +0000

Researchers at the RIKEN Advanced Science Institute at Wako, Japan have discovered a magnet that becomes weaker as the number of electrons increases. In other words, a magnet can be stable without excess electrons, signifying the presence of an energy-dissipation-free electrical mode suitable for low power electronic applications. Powerful magnets do not need an abundance […]

A guy named Mylow has tried to, and seemingly succeeded to build a magnetic motor whose power was self-sufficient to run it. The invention was not his, but Howard Johnson's, who, in the 80's, tried the same experiment and at that time it's said it was a success. Anyway, nobody seems to have publicly replicated the magnetic motor until Mylow.
