12 times more output than input, dual mechanical oscillation system !

Very interesting! But they don't explain anything. And that is not a double pendulum

@Omnibus re the clip you showed us of the gravity wheel of Mikhail Dmetriev . Look again at the full video on his website from which your clip was taken . You will notice that this video has been edited . I t shows several runs , And at the start of each run , the bits where the weights are reset by hand have been edited out . Look at the wheel in the start position and plot the resultant center of gravity of all the weights added together . Wait till the wheel stops , and plot again . The first plot will show the resultant c of g higher than the wheel axle . The second plot will show c of g lower than the axle . So it works the same as a weight driven clock . When it needs rewinding it stops . But a lot sooner than a clock . I am AMAZED that a man of your caliber would miss this .

I know, but, again, a weight attached to the rim can't even cause a full rotation while the same weight attached via a lever and a one-way clutch causes almost three rotations starting from the same height. What do you say to that?

@Omnibus . OK suppose there are 8 weights . Each weight is , say 2Kg . And suppose that after doing the plots as per my last post , we find a CofG drop of 6 inches . Now take the same wheel on the same bearings but remove the weight/clutch assemblies .Now take a 16 Kg weight [8x2] and attach it to a string , and place it beneath the axle . Tie the other end of the string to the axle . Rotate the wheel by hand and the axle will act as a winch , raising the weight . Stop when you have raised the weight 6 inches . You have just inputted the same amount of work as is required to set the weights by hand in the video .Now release the wheel . The weight will drop and the wheel will turn . When the weight reaches the floor quickly cut the string with scissors . I Will wager my last dime that the wheel will rotate more than 2.75 times , and likely at least 10 times . I am not the kind of guy who can quote some equations to back this up , but my instinct based on real world experience tells me it is so . I would be really interested to know what you think .

Please comment the case with only one weight as I suggested earlier.
