Working Magnetic Motor on you tube??

What puzzles me in @CLaNZeR's third video is the fact that the stator seems to turn uniformly.  Try to spin the rotor slowly and watch the stators.  Each one has moments of arrest in between spinning, at that not synchronously for the three stators. Probably at high speeds some averaging of the fields occurs which makes the spin of the stator smoother and yet keeping it AGW.

@ Omni:
At high speeds the stators act like small flywheels and therefore avaraging more than at low speed, don't you think?
Looks like the field strenght values are extreemly critical here.

This is right, but I think that the lack of irregularities in rotation are due to the momentum gained by both magnets (remember they're running at high speed). The effect is visible only when they have almost no momentum (=slow speeds).

I agree. The thing is, probably there should be some conditions created for a slight dis-balance while utilizing this uniformity of spin at high speeds for the effect to kick in.

Can't agree more.

I really wish @CLaNZeR would do his fine strobo experiment with dampers not equidistant from the stator, as is in the video.

He's ahead than most of us, I think you'd agree, and has supplied so far invaluable info. Wish if he could do the separation test @MeggerMan suggested (or maybe also give some data for the kgauss on both poles of each magnet) to have a better picture for the strength of his stator and rotor magnets.

(Please, don't get mad at me, mate, for asking you to do all this. I'm not ready yet, still waiting for my stuff to arrive. I'll post such data as soon as I get the equipment and do the tests).

For anyone doing the Junk yard challenge like me here is an idea to use for the dampers, I found one of these wind chimes at the local market, the tubes are aluminum, walls are not very thick, but while trying one out on my replication there was a marked difference in operation, not easy to explain, but stator AGW syncs easier and the wind down time seems longer than it does without the dampers, still in seconds, I'm continuing to experiment, will throw out more data as I get it.
