One Way Magnetic Shielding - The Holy Grail

[goalitroll]

James,
What is the most efficient way to run down batteries?
Thanks.

replication video showing a slightly different construction

James posted a couple of comments on this video:


Wonderful construction! Far better than mine I think. You need a spacer between the magnet and the battery as you do not want the magnet to touch any metal whatsoever. Since you are using a thick steel plate on the backdoor, you can also do this with out the battery, Simply make three metal boxes around the magnet. The battery was used out of convenience as I stated in the video. You want to keep the spacing between layers around 1/4 inch.


But yes there is a way to get rid of the attraction to the shielding. Simply use bismuth for shielding. It%uFEFF will block 100% of the flux without having to layer. Trouble with bismuth is that it's like a mirror, it bounces the flux right back to your rotor. So in the end, we still have the same ole problem. There might be a clever way to use bismuth, but I'm not talking right now.

Just so we're clear bismuth doesn't block magnetic field at all i worked with james on that and he didn't know by then but still it "reflect" a small portion of it's field but it's really  not enough to make it levitate
and just to say i felt the field's forces through a 2 inch thick by 5rad disk so if it goes through that, guess it doesn't work huh ! (bismuth is natural just like magnetite and is really weak just like it's cousin execpt the effect is reversed instead of attracting it reflect "only magnets that is").

And forget the batteries in the process it's another beginner idiocy that james will confirm in due time he doesn't use them anymore knowing it's more or less useless and can be compensate simply by another layer.

hope it helps ...

Is anyone following this story? James apparently had success using 'runway plates,' but YouTube immediately banned his last two videos, under a terms of use violation (I saw it myself), and threatened to close his account if he posts any more videos showing this technique. Wtf?

I saw this. There was another one after this which started the problem.
