Self-Runner NS Coil Pulse Motor Live Video Stream. It's been going for months!

Curious - have you or anyone else done the math to determine the exact amount of energy being produced (and has been produced)?  I'm not exactly a physics pro and I'm not sure where I would start.

Hi Lasersaber,

Great work and thank you for taking the time to make videos of your progress. 30+ days running is just amazing. I wonder what would happen if you take the cloth covered copper and iron wire and wound it as a Rodin or Starship coil? NS+Rodin Coil = ? Stronger magnets could give it some more kick. So much to try.

@It's Just A Battery crowd,

If it is just a battery what would you rather have. A motor that runs off an AA battery for 3 hours or a NS coil that could run for 30+ days? I think I'll choose the latter.

A 12v, 110Amp hour marine battery will run a 100watt dc motor for only 5.5hours. Even if you ran a 1watt dc motor with the 12v battery would only be able to run it 550 hours which is about 23 days, that doesn't take into account losses through heating. In those 30 days you could wind enough backup NS coils to last you the rest of the year at a price lower than the cost of the battery.

Lets not forget the old ''zamboni pile'' in the oxford electric bell......

set up in 1840, still going strong

wonderful what you can do with a good battery....i really hope this one has some self susaining properties when buried.

Hi flathunter
Great link, Wow it has been running 170 years, now lasersaber has a target 
Quote from Wikipedia
Probably the most interesting part of the bell is the pair of dry piles. Nobody is certain what they are composed of, but it is known that they have been coated with molten sulphur to prevent effects from atmospheric moisture and it is thought that they may be Zamboni piles.

What size carbon rod did you use for the air battery?
Was it solid carbon or carbon fiber?

What size magnesium ribbon also?

Thanks
