Magnet coil cores, demagnetization power and Lenz delay.

I have no clue but ask him to show a circuit and a timing diagram and it will stop the fantasy cold in its tracks.

You don't run me chump! You're just a three shift bullshit Factory.

@MileHigh,

I'm not naive about the point you raised. It would take a team of professional actuator programers to work an actual program out to get the "Linear Stepper Motor" to behave right, but it's not an impossible task. The output coil woud need the same kind of motor and software interface. There's a company in Boston called "Epsilon" that could handle this kind of assignment. It would take enough investment and probably involve patents. However, the finished product with the software would return the investment multi-fold.

That's if you want something to take with you to Mars. That leaves alot of other approaches to fudge in with in between.

But of course such an investment would be a complete waste of time and money.  Capturing a portion of energy, losing a good deal of that to heat, storing what's left, losing more of it to heat during storage, and then returning a less than 100% fraction of what remains just introduces loss into a system.  Losses are not made up in volume.

Great for you.  Be sure to let everyone know the day that Hell freezes over and you are able to successfully close the loop and make a self-runner.
