Isn't Milkovic the guy who invented the Morse Code Tapping Coat Hanger?

Are the gravitational waves the cause of ultra efficiency of the two-stage oscillator?

If you mean OU by 'ultra efficiency of the two-stage oscillator', that would first have to be demonstrated.
If you mean 'close but not exceeding' 100%, that is just a matter of reducing losses.

clever there is an electric magnet under the desk.  It attracts the stack of large washers (The weight) , pulls the washers down causing the ball to move.  You turn the magnet off the washers rise up  and repeat. nice illusion.
