toroid generator

Very interesting, take another look at the open TPU and notice a cylinder in between the upper and lower rings. Is this a motor??

You know a motor wrapped up and hidden like in the later SM TPU's could have caused the slight vibration and the gyro effect...just a thought. And the heating effect.

I used Motorola pager motors as feedback mechanisms in robotic hands for amputees. They were connected to resistive strips for fingertip simulation and pressure measuement.
