The Steorn Permanent Magnet Motor Replication Project: It's FLUX time.

[capeguy]

what is the sheild made out of?? another magnet, metal, non metallic, plastic???

these guys sell magnets...some powerful ones at that... a description below of 1 of them.
It weighs 17.34 oz's and has a pull strength of 640 lb's ...dam

Cache,

If what you are saying is true Steorn is flat out lying with us when he says the device in that patent has nothing to do with the overunity technology. Also, technically the patented device does use magnetic shielding in at least one aspect. I sincerely hope that Steorn is not lying to us. They have boldly claimed their technology has nothing to do with that patent at all.

I have an alternate proposal. I'm willing to listen to anything you have to say, but let me get this out there. Steorn has repeatedly said they have a variety of versions of this technology. What if an EARLIER version of the technology (out of more than one) used the patented device, but others and the current implementation does not and simply uses permanent magnets alone?

There are good people that try here.

All things here are great ideas, but nothing is working.

You're so right.
But we can't stop trying. What's the alternative?

Even if Steorn is full of shit, they have managed to stir the minds of thousands-
bringing to light one of the most basic powers of the universe, and yet nobody has ever managed to 'unleash' its potential.

I believe our collaboritive efforts will eventually change our reality.




sorry for the wild-cat post earlier. I removed it.

The key, supposedly, is Frank Grimer's remark that you get OU when the magnets approach quickly and separate slowly. The actuator is used to do that - to make the fields come together quickly.

The other pieces are in this thread.

It's speculation, but at least makes sense of steorn's patenting the actuator. Even though Sean McCarthy said it had nothing to do with the OU, that can probably be taken as a bit of misdirection.
