New accelerating gravity wheel ! Converted video from www.newenergymachine.com !

Given the patent has been applied for it shouldnt be to much to ask to have someone take a look and independently validated it. This is the only way to avoid any speculation. up until that point it has little or no value.

Once again. I live less than 2 hours away from Bob. I can go check in on him.

Hi,
yes, please try to visit Bob and take a video camera with you and
make some video for us .

I will send you privately  his phone number, so you can
make an apointment with him.
Many thanks in advance.

Regards, Stefan.

I am not sure I understand the explanation of how/why it works.

I think the only explanation is the same as to why satellites gain energy when they travel near planets. This machine should be working on the same principle: energy is stored during 1/3 of the wheel travel path - mostly like in the case of satellites. The weight that goes from top to bottom is analogous to a small satellite, and all you need is to store the surplus energy. A simple weight without a small air-compressor tube or a spring with locker-zipper mechanism mounted on such wheel won't store any surplus energy, and it will eventually stop. The only important thing is that surplus energy is THERE: all you need is to store it.

Here is an update from Bob?s page:
http://www.newsourceofenergy.com./update.html

"Now that the patent has been filed, I am installing one at my house and will be self sufficient . Soon I will have it

running around the first week of November. This one will deliver over 2000 foot lbs of torque at 50 rpm.
After that maybe all the disbelief will be gone. (Aproximently 20 horse power with high torque and very low rpm.)
My goal is to engineer one around 40 horse power. Watch the papers or check back to the web site for updates.


The machines in the videos are of coarse only prototypes that have been used over and over to prefect
the units on a smaller scale. Many unforeseen problems have been solved, and now with confidence I can move to
the finished product. The machines will be aproximently the same size, but built much stronger."

The amount of energy a satellite gains during a flyby is actually the same as what the planet loses in momentum.  The amount lost by the planet is imperceptable, but it is there.  So no net energy gain in the overall system.

In this case, since the orbiting bit is actually tethered to the center, it would be impossible for the rotating part to actually gain energy in the manner a flyby satellite does.
