Ok, I do agree with that.  But, what are everyone's goals with OU?  Are you doing it for a hobby, or to create usable OU?  I'll give my reasons now and you can think what you will:  About 5 years ago I was thinking of the idea of making an ultra efficient motor, high torque and speed, but over the years it's mutated into my current idea/project.  But essentially it's been OU, but at the time I didn't realise that.  I've lead a pretty shitty life, did crappy at school, all my mates have done something better.  And i've just thought to myself, when I die, I want to remembered for contributing something to the world that really helped.  I'd personally like to make a bit of profit from this so I can at least live a nicer life than I have, but that's just my personal reasons.

Hi,

It is ok but how you wish to make a bit of profit from your OU device? 

One problem is the moment you come out with a really working device it will be immediately copied and manufactured by much powerful individuals or companies, even if you may have already an issued patent on your principle. You do not wish to spend your life on defending your patent or your interests.

My opinion is that I would organize a manufacturing team from my family and friends circle and invest in components and produce as many devices as my team agrees on the possible profit from the sellings, considering a market price for what the device is capable of, etc etc.   This process is also risky of course but maybe still managable due to the small number of people involved.  But you need money for a start.

Here is a link how Stefan Hartmann thinks: http://www.overunity.com/index.php?topic=2157.msg31408;topicseen#msg31408

So how you think?

Being hired out by a big company sounds like the best route to me.  I tried getting in touch with Honda as I have a few contacts there, but it's not going too well. :S

@ Pagey.
Man, i FULLY relate to your situation about yourself/everyone-else/shitty upbringing deal. as i'm coming from a similar place.
But.
I reckon one of the Biggest divisions, not only in our own towns etc but World wide that can tip the balance for a person is fair access to resources namely Coal and Oil. (Light Bulbs are cheap)
If you have the guts to GIVE this to the world you WILL be remembered as great.
If you get on board with a huge company the SELL'S this to the world. Why make it any cheaper per Watt than Oil or Coal? It's Green that will mean you can charge MORE for power. There is no motivation to make it cheaper or FREE!
      Unless..... Said company was competing against numerous home based / micro company's who can make the same thing for much much less.
It's all about profit.
If i were you I'd be struggling with the same problem.
Good Luck,
Dan.
