He just needs to loop it, if he can.

Don't you think he would have, if he could? Of course he cannot, and the energy efficiency, from input from the batteries to output at the lights and other loads, is actually quite low. Peak power is not energy, pulsed voltage is not energy, and one simply cannot measure this kind of circuit properly with DMMs, without heavy filtering! Especially when they are beeping at you, complaining about all the EMI!

The same phenomenon has fooled many people with many different devices and circuits. Peak power is not energy, voltage multiplication is not energy multiplication. One needs something a bit more sophisticated than a kill-a-watt meter and a clampon DMM to measure, accurately, peak and average output power levels in a system with lots of "hash" (RF noise, high frequency/high voltage, "cold" or "radiant" electricity). The reason you don't see claimants using these proper methods and instruments is obvious to me: it's because proper measurements don't support the claims of overunity, free energy or enhanced efficiency. So they "must be wrong" and the claimant will fall back to the kill-a-watt meters and DMMs in attempts to support his claims. Sterling surely knows better, by now, but he seems to enjoy the controversy and the traffic that false claimants bring to his site.

I found one of the washer pumps its really cool the water runs around the magnet.
The spinning magnet actually pumps the water.
This is the setup, at least in the one I found.

I don't think so - the pic you show is the basics of a Synchronous motor (see: http://www.johnsonelectric.com/resources-for-engineers/ac-motors/principle-of-operation). Most of the drain pump motors I have seen appear to be Synchronous motors (as opposed to Universal or Shaded pole). The shaft end has a plastic paddle on it that moves the water.

I guess there are still plenty of people out there willing to throw time, money, and effort into the fire. If all one is going to do is replicate garbage chasing dreams of overunity, one will surely fail at every attempt.  If you really want to get anywhere at all, you need to stop chasing the rat in circles and start experimenting specifically for the knowledge.  Without knowledge and experience, you're never going to achieve anything.  I figured out very quickly that if I don't understand how something works in it's entirety, I'll have absolutely no hope of making any sort of progress in any direction.
From what I gather about this Morin fella... he's headed nowhere fast, with his "invention" or "discovery" or whatever one wants to call it.  If you'd like to follow him, there's no one that's going to stop you, but I would actually listen to TK and find something else to do, something you might actually learn something from that isn't a complete waste of effort and money. 

Remember that one guy who thought he had something a while ago...something with a BATTERY and a MOTOR and a couple LIGHT BULBS..??

The difference between Gerald Morin and many other experimenters is that he has had a Eureka moment in public, whereas most of us who have experimented for years, kept ours private. Its not nice to be told we have got it wrong and eventually realise our error, especially when told in the public domain. Having said this, I rather admire Gerald for his enthusiasm and willingness to share his learning experience on the fora. What I do object to is the rudeness that often accompanies those 'you've got it wrong' type posts, often from more experienced experimenters.
