A better ramp for a SMOT or TOMI track...

One interesting possibility; Use a 48Vdc converted Bedini Computer Fan
(with no fan circuitry) with it's two coils located 90 degrees apart running
two diode bridges charging a capacitor...As both the generator and central
pivot point of a (spiral) magnetic motor...The 48Vdc fan generator should
keep the generated voltage rather high, like maybe in the 6-12Vdc range

Use gradient accent method of sorting magnets in the spiral field from
weakest to strongest to help pull the rotor through the field.

When the wheel gets to the sticky spot have an electronic wall
clock mechanism (the kind that runs for a year or more on one
carbon/zinc battery) slowly drive a plastic tire with friction on the wheel,
through the sticky spot. When the wheel is rotated past the sticky spot
the tire looses friction on the wheel and the wheel spins around freely
to the sticky stop again.

Couple the generator capacitor to the clock motor to run it. 

As long as the clock mechanism can generate sufficient torque and hang
together, the 1.5Vdc motor mechanism should be highly efficient and
the generator should not be so bad either. Seems perpetual to me.

I honestly don't see why the below picture can't be scaled up, and in turn be over unity?. If you think about it, the length of the track doesn't matter. Say if you had a track 10 metres long and it curled up 10 metres back to the starting point, and along the track you had coils to pick up electricity... then when it gets back to the start, use that electricity generated to power a solenoid to push the ball back into its starting position, and any excess electricity you can use for what ever. this concept would be highly impracticable for the amount of electricity, but for me, i don't care about practicality, i only care about proving the existence of OU

you have to use ramps built in a circle ...........perfectly timed with the oncoming magnet on the rotor.......at the perfect height.......so gravity can be put to its' best use.....also have a magnet above  the oscilating (up & down) magnet drive,.... to help it through the "sticky spot"..........timing is crucial..........been working on this for twenty years now .....I've almost got it down ...........but close only counts in horseshoes and handgrenades.........if I get it to work you people will be the first to know........shylo

Hello fellos.
Weekend workshop.
Thats have to get running well. Chain is iron metal and also the teeth rings, better will be SS chain and SS teeht rings. but have to buy in next week.
