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

...But, I have a couple of ideas for doing that with power from the device itself. The device's rotating shaft is a good place to mount a second set of magnets within a coil producing a dynamo-type electric current...

Could you incorporate the magnet(s) into a flywheel somehow?
Mount an inductive pickup near the circumference and use the induced pulse to compensate for the 20% that gets through the shielding.

Another coil (feed-forward) near the 'sticky' point could provide the inductive kick you require. see attachment

Interesting design... at its current drawing it wont work as the force to remove the shield shown would be proportional to the magnets attracted to it...

But with Lema tech that could work... the rail sliding a magnet in and out of the 'piston', however when the lema pulls back you're still going to get fields leaving from the balancer magnet, which i think would greatly hinder performance...

I don't show the shields. I was just indicating how you could add a 'feed-forward kick coil' to your existing motor.

Hi Kent767,

Yes I agree with your notice on the original design, though Anatoliy, the inventor, wrote here ( http://www.overunity.com/index.php/topic,880.msg5513.html#msg5513 ) that he has had some manufacturing secrets...   

Regarding the usage of LEMA in place of the upper magnet, I was thinking on putting 3  cylindrical magnets vertically in a line instead and the shield would never go beyond the middle and the right side magnets but would cover or uncover only the left side magnet (and the one on the right side but it would not matter much, being further away) and only this latter would be really positioned just above the piston and repel it down when in the uncovered state, the other two would be mounted further to the right (but the distances between the three magnets would be equal just like in the LEMA patent).
