IEC Earth Engine First Magnet motor installed in Las Vegas

Hi Stephan,
Looked at the specs. for the inverter/grid tie inverter.  It appears to run off of a 48VDC battery or 120VAC @ 55/65 Hz in the charge mode.  Their generator I don't know if they plan to charge batteries then switch over to running off the batteries, etc. It sure would be nice if they show the wiring diagram of the complete unit as set up and running and describe how they propose that it operates.  Possibly the motor/generator simply charges the batteries and the inverter then supply's to the load.  With the isolation of the inverter from the motor/generator it becomes a question as to the requirements of the "Parasitic" needs of the motor control circuitry.  Again, removal from the grid should be very simple and straightforward.  I would be impressed if while supplying/energizing the drive circuitry to the motor and a 5KW load, it did not slowly wind down as the batteries die and the inverter quits with a low DC voltage cutoff hence loosing drive to the motor.
BTW, that is a heck of a nice grid tie inverter and very efficient!

Hi Ben,well I don´t exactly know, if that really is the shown inverter or a simular model from Schneider Electric...Also in the video you can shortly see also a second device obviously from Schneider Electric hanging at the wall...but it could not be seen completely... so We must wait and see and maybe they will show today something in the livevideo ?

by the way, here is the inventor in a picture from his Facebook profile sitting in a funny American style car ! lol....https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151159026895404

Just a heads up, I just tried to see how things were going with the Earth Engine and both my browsers red flagged them as malware. Didn't have that problem yesterday.


Redirects?

Well, no not malware or any script problem, just earthenginelive.com runs only via http and not https so your browser just  shows this in the URL box...
So giving into forms your personal information is then not transfered encrypted...but this is the only page, where you can do this:
http://earthenginelive.com/contact.html
But as these are no login informations or something very private informations, this probably is not so important and also not dangerous...

Seems to me the live demonstration is working now, but no indication of a real load.
