A sincere gentleman sharing a magnet motor build .[NDA issues??]

If there are any of you that are working on the magnet motor idea I have suggestion for you.  TK has insisted we need a way to test what we are doing.  While I don't disagree with that, his idea for a test is not really a good test in my opinion.  I think I have found a better way to test your magnet motor ideas.   The first thing you need is a small DC motor with nice smooth bearings and low drag from the brushes.  Mount your rotor of your magnet motor on the shaft of the DC motor.  When you think you are getting close to a successful build then power up the DC motor with as low a voltage as you can use to get it to keep rotating.  If you have an ammeter in series with the DC motor you can easily see if any changes are an improvement or not.  If you hit the winning combination your DC motor will then become a generator and the current will reverse proving you have made a successful magnet motor.

No,no,no Chet-nothing out of the ordinary happening there.
But the one below will be a little harder for the guru's to dismiss.
How will they explain acceleration of a mass that can actually leave the gate at the end of the run?.

This one starts at a stand still,rolls up hill,and exit's the gate.

Oh come on. In each trial, Mister Hand places the magnet roller in a place where it is Drawn In to the first gate. That is, it is being placed in a position of stored MPE. Except of course for the trial that begins at about 2:19 (after a couple of _failed_ starts), where you can clearly see that he actually _pushes_ the roller along to get it started.
These things do not work!

I've suggested at least two valid ways of testing. Your suggestion is similar to my second method: Use a motor or other power source (I prefer a blast of compressed air since it is a non-contact method) to spin your rotor up to a known measured RPM, remove the power, and time how long it takes to come to a stop from that RPM. A variation is to spin the rotor up faster than some reference RPM, remove the power and start timing as the rotor slows past your reference RPM.
Obviously this requires some precise measurements: time, and speed. I've shown how to do this in a different setup using Arduino to "do it all": the Arduino records "lap time" for a ball rolling around a track and also computes the kinetic energy of the ball from its speed and its mass. This method could be easily adapted to a turning rotor to give the data that you need to tell if any changes actually improve (add energy during each rotation) or hurt by adding drag.

Hi!
"These things do not work"
It's the truth...
Sorry

You sound like a broken record.

SO EDEGEN WHAT BRILLIANT IDEAS HAVE YOU BROUGHT FORWARD
SINCE YOU HAVE BEEN BORN.. WHY JUST CRITICIZE OTHER PEOPLE CONTRIBUTIONS
COME WITH YOU OWN IDEAS OR MAYBE PUSH FORWARD SOME OTHER PEOPLES
IDEAS THAT WILL BE GREAT,, THANKS MATE..OR IF YOU WANT ME TO PROVE TO YOU
THAT IT WORK PLEASE PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR OPINION IS.. SEND ME SOME BUCKS
AND I WILL GUARANTY YOU I WILL DELIVER..
