Thane Heins Perepiteia.

[wattsup]

@all

I think what has happened, and I am basing this on the last video Thane put up before his Sunday Demo, is one of two things. First one is someone at that demo went to him and told him that they will buy him out or something like that and that he should no longer look to do this open source. That is the first one obviously.

But the second one is what i am more inclined to think and that is based on his video. During the video he uses 5 generator coils but only one is actually loaded by the bulb and counting the amps/volts in versus the amps/volts on the lit bulb, he then did a simple multiplication times 5 to get his generated output, but this is only theoretical. He says he did something like engaged the four other coils on the generator during the video but I never understood what that really meant. I think during the Demo, if it was done in the same way, someone there that knows about this stuff may have insisted on putting a real load on the four other coils and when that was done, it was probably too much for his motor and the drag just seized the motor, especially if the drag was exerted on the outer periphery of the turning magnets. I know the rpm is supposed to increase when the generator is loaded but again, load is load and the motor, regardless of an increase potential will have its limits. Based on this second point, if true, then he must be brainstorming trying to work out this thing.

I hope to hell the reason is the first one or any other positive reason. I really do because the Thane has shown an above average zest and determination that is more then admirable and I can only wish him well, either way.

Oh well. The main idea is posted already and is possesed by thousands of people.  As well as several succsessful replications by others (according the posts). Not a single word about may 3rd from thane seems strange considering amount of time already passed. On the other hand we are YET to see the first overunity device to reach general public. Lets hope open source will continue.

Engaging the four other coils is the same as shorting the coils.  Thane did this by flicking a switch that basically shorted each of the coils one by one. Each flick of the switch that shorted each generator coil increased the rotor RPM more. The coil with the light bulb load is basically shorted by putting a transformer across the generator coil instead of a dead short by way of a switch. The reasoning was that it did not matter if you shorted the coil directly by way of a switch or a transformer you could increase the rotor RPM. By using a transformer you could get useful work (lighting multiple bulbs) out of the system while increasing the rotor RPM. It stood to reason that instead of shorting the four other generator coils with a switches you could short them using a transformer for each coil and harvest the energy. Based upon the output of the one generator coil being shorted with a transformer Thane figured the other four coils being shorted with a transformer along with adding four additional coils would produce more power output than the system was using to run the Ryobi motor. Sounded simple enough but there was a lot of work to do to meet his self imposed May 3rd demo deadline.
  What is really strange is that Thane always was very open and posted good or bad results. Now he is not posting anything or logging in for over a week..

Hi Hydro
I think he also said he only had the one transformer,so he just shorted the other coils.

True. In his video you can see four transformers. Perhaps they were the wrong type of transformers so he could not hook them all up. Maybe he was waiting for better transformers to hook up. All speculation at this point until Thane confirms. At least Thane left us a direction to go in. I just wished he left us with a bit more details.
