SMOT TEST- can someone do this?

infnite smot works. no ramps needed

I haven't build it cause it obviously works.
Who doesn't see it as over 100% working should change forum
immediately.
many experiments like this confirms it

infinite smot is based on rail or gauss gun.

Yes - but - the purpose of this site is to extract energy. Your design needs some sort of
output shaft. Could the balls be magnets, and pass through coils which generate electricity?
If the consequent Lenz Law resistance is reasonable, it would not come to a halt.

I'm not sure but isn't the steel ball hitting a none magnetic glass ball and launching it? I think whiz idea only uses all steel balls? I may be wrong but this would create a different result. Do any of you have a link to a video that shows a smot with a steel ball trapped at the sticky spot and another steel ball travel through the smot and launch the trapped ball? If this can be done then we might have something. Otherwise I feel the balls will just get trapped.

The poster was joking.

No, I wasn't. As the steel balls pass the bar magnets, they become
magnetised. If a coil  is wound around the track and bar magnets,
then the recently magnetised balls will generate a current in this
coil. This will tend to slow the ball,(by Lenz Law) but if this ball
has enough energy from the SMOTs, then it will keep on trucking.

The joy is that the output load on the coil(s) can be adjusted to
adjust the breaking effect experienced by the steel balls.

Sorry I was unclear, I mean wizycho:  "I haven't built it cause it obviously works."  That's the best line of all.

Paul,
     Did you miss my comments? The system in the videos has no chance of cycling back to its original position. Even if you were to create the loop previously shown in this thread.

If your referring to the display of when he lets the steel ball bearing go free on the ramp and it launches the other ball free well this is misleading if you think the "launched" ball is also steel. Its a glass marble. It has no forces holding it in place besides gravity. If it was steel and propelled the same way then yes your idea would work.
