the guy that builds those was using a bedini motor & car battery & inverter 12 to 120v & pulse battery charger..
and it must not work .. cause on the tv show he asked 1 million dollars for it and all that was needed is it had to work..

If these units work, is the business model the right one?   
These go for 15,000 dollars for a home unit plus you need a new breaker box and system installed by qualified electrician.  I would guess at a cost of another 1,000 dollars at best.     Next you need to consider the coils need replaced every 7 years (no cost given) per Magnacoaster documentation.
So, doing the math says this home unit is at a cost of $16,000.00 (plus taxes) and is good for 7 years.
That means my home electric bill would average $2286 per year for 7 years then need a qualified electrician to come to my home and refurbish my unit with new coils.   By that time, the unit would be out of date and most likely need to be totally replaced.  Also, by that time, power companies may be able to reduce their costs using such technology and could be more competitlive.     

No real warranty information is given.   Safety certifications  UL, CSA etc are not mentioned.  ... I would say that is very expensive considering my home electric bill is only about 1600 dollars per year in North Carolina at this time. 


A better business model may be to sell much larger units to power companies and let the cost of power go down which most likely would happen anyway if this technology really worked.

Oh,  I forgot,  you need another $2000 to $6000 for batteries.    "Batteries not included"

Also,  when I say no real warranty... the warranty they do mention is really poor.   1 year limited.  Coils 3 years.  You pay shipping back to company if the thing does not work or breaks.    Hmm,  I can see it now.  One cold night the lights and electric go out.   You call the electrician,  he says the unit is broke.  Now you need to disconnect the thing and send it in for repairs.   All at your cost.   

This is not a good business model at all.   Investors should beware.

From the  installation guide, they show a photo of bunch of wires (none labled) that need stripped and connectors need to be soldered on.   Yes you need an electrician to install this.     

http://lab.magnacoaster.com/magna/Installation_guide_09.pdf

"STEP 5)
Strip all wires that come out of the bottom of the box.
Strip off approx ¼ inch of shielding on all wires to show copper. This
will allow the wire to fit in the ring connectors and make a good
connection. Solder one ring connector onto each wire.
Notice there will be 5 sets of 2 wires or 7 sets of 2 wires (depending
on which unit you have). One set of 2 wires is thinner and should be
kept separate. These 2 wires are 12 volt only wires."
