Magtap: harvesting electricity from a magnet!

[shylo]

hi all .....been doing lots of reading in many topics ....seems voltage is pretty much useless,..........it's all about amperage.........everything I read says voltage is only the potential to deliver amperage due to resistance...24 volts through a 1k ohm resistor should give  .24ma is this right or not??.........if this is right the math dose'nt work   not with the batteries I made anyway.....shylo

Maybe this is a similar effect: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/10/091011071349.htm

classic theories does not apply to nano science, they don't work.
The second law of Thermodynamics is supported by several loose analogies. The second law break down in the nano scale realm. It's called Reverse Thermodynamics.

The metal 200 nm ring is an effect of thermal radiation, Thermal radiation only becomes heat when it contacts a medium where the radiation energy is the energy source that becomes kinetic energy.

Charles Brown of Kauai Hawaii has done lots of work in this field with his Super Diode Array free energy device.
The diode array is intended to escape the second law of thermodynamics by passively directing with acceptable losses the random movements of electrons in nanometer scale diodes. The diodes are organized into a coherent collective which aggregates the small rectified intermittent outputs into useful power. The diode array is intended to absorb heat from a macroscopically uniform temperature of zero ordinary thermodynamic potential while releasing exactly as much electrical energy; it converts heat directly into electricity. The intermediary is Johnson noise a random radio frequency power expression of thermally moving electrons. The diode array should produce power anywhere warmer than absolute zero; indoors, in chassis boxes, in the dark, on winter nights, in the abyssal depths of the ocean.

A far infra red photovoltaic cell is a follow up device which should do the same thing with less practicality. The ability to convert macroscopically uniform heat into another form of energy is so basic that if it is possible at all then there should be many ways to do it. There would be many applications of the process.

Voltage alone has nothing to do with energy ! Not to even mention free energy ! Oh dear ;]

@lightsaber,
If you connect a wire between the two points that you're measuring from, i.e. short it out and leave it shorted for a while, I wonder if it'll become easier to remove the keeper. In other words, would shorting it for a time drain it of energy and reduce the magnetic field?

Of course you'd have to do a control experiment where you leave it for the same amount of time without shorting it and see if the keeper still becomes easier to remove.

If you are standing in a lightning storm, you may care to rethink.
