Sorry, that would be the "Gravity powered devises" section; there is no "gravity Wheel" section. There is no "Beer powered" section either, as there should be.

Should probably get Stefan working on that.

Hi,

Paul's device is not a gravity powered device.  If anything it is a magnetically shielded device.
In fact, it looks simple, but its action may be more complicated with eddy currents being induced both in the steel and in the copper.  A turning ball or cylinder would have eddy currents induced in it due to relative motion to the magnet.  These moving eddy currents can cause induction in the stationary copper because there is relative motion between the sphere/cylinder and the copper.  Between the magnet and copper there is no induction.

In a way this is like a ping-pong machiine.  The turning-iron/magnet is the ping and the turning-iron/copper is the pong.

It is probably a lot more complicated to get running than it appears.

It sure is cool though.

Maybe YouTube has been forced from music industry pressure to remove all videos with music in them?

Earl,

The last paragraph of mine was in reference to another device that Paul had a video of, other than the floating ball. He mentions it on page 2 of this thread when he says:

I have gave away another Idea that may be easier for everyone, Its so simple a kid could build it, it has two floats in a tube with a weight in the middle,
the weight floats up the tube , the top becomes top heavy and flips over and it repeats forever!!!!!

This is a gravity devise. Sorry, I should have been more clear as to what I was referring to.

Hi Paul,
Another site you can use is Photobucket for your images and videos.
Videos are converted to FLV during the upload process.
They sometimes run slow and stop but never had anything deleted.
I have used them for over a year now:

Video example:

My whole album of overunity related stuff/research:

Try a few different places.

Can you post a few pictures too as I am keen to see more about this coil/magnet stack and copper tube.

Regards
Rob

Here are still a few older video of pcockriel:

Unfortunately not the one with the wire around magnets
and sticking it into the copper tube.

If somebody has stored this, please upload it again over here...

Too bad youtube.com has deleted his account...

So always download videos to your harddrive
e.g.with:
