NEW NEWMAN IDEA

[unzapped]

So I have always been a viewer and watcher on this forum, but I am now intrigued enough to post a half baked idea.

In regard to the newman motor...

If you have a working newman motor or know how to build one effectively, which several people have done, why dont you continue the research? Close the loop... or...

Stack unconnected, unpowered, newmans one on top of the other, and use the lenz effect to generate power, since it will yield a small amount of power, maybe store each in an ultra capacitor and feed it back to powers source?

The standard powered newman motor will by design, turn another unpowered newman above it because the magets are spinning! I wonder how many you could stack before it wouldnt run...maybe it wouldnt run with one??

What do you think?

Hi UZ,

Of course you would know for sure once you have tested it...   But common sense would say the extra stacks of further motors around would surely reflect in the one powered motor as increasing drags and you would pay for this drag by an increasing current draw from the one battery. 
If one such motor would be overunity in itself, then your idea would work till you reach unity with the 'loadings' from the extra motor stacks. 

You would say: but then you would supply the power back from the ultra capacitors to the one main battery....

Well,  of course you would and could but you are facing an efficiency question right at gaining in the ultracaps and next an efficiency question to connect this gain back to main battery (you have to isolate the battery from the ultracaps so that charge from the battery should not enter into the ultracaps). One thing with ultra capacitors is they need longer time to charge up so that they be able to fulfill your wishes... first normal electrolyte capacitors of some hundred or thousand microFarad values should be tried.

I do not say your idea is wrong in itself but only experimentation can say if it is practical with ou in sight...

No one knows how to build a Newman motor effectively, not even Newman.  And by "effectively," I mean over unity.  I think the closest anyone got was around 70% efficiency.

you think my idea could increase the efficiency?

I am not familiar with the lenz effect, but if you want to get some motors to test your setup with, you can probably find something more efficient than the Newman.
