Giant Killer,

Thank for the link and the information. Apparently, that guys motor used a combination of various methods to achieve overunity. However, Steorn is doing it with only permanent magnets. In my opinion, that allows experimentation by the laymen and individuals who are not educated or skilled enough to build complex circuits or complex mechanisms. What I'm hoping is that we will find a way to produce a configuration of magnets either on the stator or rotor or both that allow us to produce self sustaining motion.

My ultimate hope is that we will be able to post plans online with the exact magnets and materials someone would need to purchase. Hopefully, the parts would be affordable enough so that the average person could build one and we will get tons and tons of replications. Once that happens, if it happens, the world would change forever.

However, I'm going through that page and certainly seeing what that man had to say. Anyone that can build something that complex and something that achieves overunity deserves respect.

REVLON,

perindev hasn't done it yet either, YOU CAN STILL BE THE FIRST!!!!!
that is all i am going to say for now.

lol, keep up the good work,
sam

you could start by posting a picture of the current steorn device .. i havent seen it yet

We really don't have a picture of the Steorn device. We have pictures of a few test rigs in that there are additional arms for measuring various forces. But I cannot determine anything from them. All we really know is that when one set of permanent magnets on a rotor go through a magnetic field created by permanent magnets on the stator that the rotor will gain power when moving in one direction and lose power in the opposite direction. In one example of their technology there are four magnets on the rotor and only one on the stator, according to the claims of an individual who visited their lab.

Basically, the thing we need to do is see if we can get a rotor spinning by placing magnets on it and on an external stator. It's going to be a challenging task, but hopefully along the way we will get help from Steron. It was recently said on their website that the next part of their flash presentation would deal with the device and that it will be made clear then.

Does anyone here know of any retail outlets that sell neodymium magnets? Would there be any in common hardware stores for sale?

I have a serious question I want to ask that is important in my opinion.

To push past a sticky point requires a certain ammount of energy.

Lets say we had a magnet on a rotor with north facing out and a magnet on the stator with north facing in so we have a repulsive force.

The key question is this.

Does it take less kinetic energy to push past the sticky point than the ammount of kinetic energy given after making it past the sticky point?
I think this is a KEY and CRITICAL question we need to answer.
