similar function as my last thread, but this time it explores an overbalanced relationship

keeping in mind, another way to fight lorentz (found here^) has a main flaw being high rpm's wreaking havoc with output
i figure the only way to get over this is to keep it as low rpm as possible, for right now i would be happy with a self runner, and i believe this has the potential to do so
now lets say this version starts as shown
i am sure all of you are familiar with the motion it should exhibit, if we apply a small force, not even an inch in direction
this would be sufficient enough to have the mechanism swing all the way down, around, and back to the top where it can be stopped and repeated
the bottom line is if we are going for a self runner, time is irrelevent, meaning our mechanism can take as long as it needs to, because the slower we move something the less energy it will take us
now we know if no power were applied to this, the heavier side would bring it around and almost back to starting position, but not enough, so if we add power at the point it will be traveling the fastest (the moment it starts going back up the other side) we can figure out the exact amount of force needed to keep it going,
because this deals with a variation in weight, the amount of force necessary will be constant no matter what ratio we use, as long as its the same ratio
this means weight is irrelevant as well, as its the difference in weight and not combined weight that gives the pendulum effect
keeping all this in mind, we could rotate two large magnets with a force that is only the difference in their weight for an extremely small distance
there is no lenz drag or counter torque and it will be the same amount of energy every time, which can be increased exponentially by exploiting the weight ratio relationship
edit""
the low rpm is to ensure the counterweights will keep the disc upright relative to the magnet, and this should not get anywhere near to fast for this to occur, and at the same time adding weight to the counterweight could be used to find the right ratio instead of using different sizes of disc and magnet combo's
