Bedini motor, debunked by MythBusters.

[tinu]

Yeah, right.
That?s why Bedini kept discovering free energy in the last thirty years or so while paying the power bills.
It makes sense: MythBusters were too afraid that another ?free a la Bendini? would shake the whole world. LOL

Well, you can start.  Why don't you show us an overunity Bedini motor?

Where would you like me to start? Where are your replications? The myth busters piece on JB's motor was a sham. No one builds an alternator without magnets and then says that it doesnt work period. And their switching device was pitiful. Reminds me of some of the ill informed comments of certain indivduals on this forum.

Cap Z ro, your spot on with your last remark.

"And as far as what Bedini designed, I am curious, is there is single practical application of the Bedini motor that is actually used commercially?  If not, maybe the guys are not far from wrong.  The Bedini motor runs, but it doesn't do anything useful, so screw it, it may as well be busted." -Utilitarian

Lol. Which design are you reffering to?  All of them I assume, you obviously havent done your homework. There are plenty of uses (including torque) if one but builds the correct device with the correct materials and voltage input. Oh let me guess you've built a  simple SG MECHANICAL OSCILLATOR with a tiny coil and tiny magnets and then proceed to flame it when its not powerful enough to drive your car?

Tinu, Bedini was actually accused of stealing power from the power companies so they disconnected his workshop. Its one thing to "discover" and another thing to build a device that powers your whole house/workshop. Funnily enough when power was disconnected his lights were still on at night.


But back on topic, the mythbusters episode was enough to make any backyard tinkerer let alone scientist laugh out loud. Leave out half a design and of course it wont work! I think they teach that in primary school....

Mr Bedini quite rightly pointed out why the Mythbusters setup did not work. One must then assume that Mr Bedini's own setup DOES work. It follows logically that he may claim the Overunity prize.

Has he claimed it?

Does he qualify?

The questions above are rhetorical of course.

So I take it you do not actually know of any practical Bedini applications, you are just assuming that there must be, because the technology is oh so useful.

None of the Bedini devices produce more power than they consume, so it is nonsensical to talk about scale and producing "enough" power.  The devices produce zero power.  As far as I am concerned, the myth is busted, unless of course someone can show a perpetual Bedini device. 

Maybe the Mythbusters did not bust the myth correctly, but their end conclusion was correct.

@ Utilitarian

My Bedini SG is now my battery charger. I have quite a few 12v SLA i use for lights etc. I power it using my bench top PSU and here is the good thing, it has improved the capacity of the batteries I have been using in the 6 months of use AND I have reconditioned an old car battery for someone with the same machine.

Plus, if the technology shown by the Bedini SG motor has no merit why is Mr Bedini's company selling battery chargers http://energenx.com/products.html

Build one or buy one and find out for yourself.
