Don?t get me wrong:

I can picture a wheel, with magnetized weights in each ray or arm, going from center to edge, in radius, and one repelling magnet at 7 o'clock that would displace these weights towards the center of the wheel, and maybe another magnet at 1 o clock that pulls them into the edge again, thus giving the whole system the inbalance or LEVER (leverage) to keep going.

Frankly I think that even in the best of these systems, air drag and other energy losses will eventually stop it.

Anyway it might be worth a try. And I also think that the magnet at 1 oclock might not be even necessary due to centripetal force making the magnetized weigths go into the edge by themselves.

BUT BUT BUT:

It still stands that the text Mr. Quinn wrote, and I quoted about four posts earlier, is a very obvious fallacy, and as such places Mr Quinn in rather poorly grounds as far as seriousness go... I wonder, WHY did he, anyway, wrote such an obviously flawed story,

I have solved the problem, and I will not argue how here. You will have to wait until it is properly protected. It is also a waste of time without being able to show it, for it would be premature for safety sakes. I also can't say that the man from Australia has or has not done, for I don't use magnets or motors in mine. So I will just wait and see.

Hi.  I'm intrigued by your statement - is it 'Patent protection' (sigh) you are referring to, or is it a safety issue concerning its operation that needs resolving?

It takes time to cover all aspects of patent work. A mistake can be costly.

Don't take this the wrong way, but patents seem to be of of the most effective tools bigoil has in supressing FE tech. - they are used as a carrot to lure inventors to come forward, knowing full well that the all-too-human desire for fame & fortune will ensure that 'The Man' will know long before (if ever!) the general public about said invention, so that they can, if necessary, take the 'necessary steps' to see it never sees the light of day.

People often wonder why there appears to be so many FE devices successfully patented - the reason (imo) is that, were they to reject everything that seemed OU, the number of applicants would quickly 'dry-up' as inventors would see no point in applying, and the likelyhood of the invention being released into the public domain would increase dramatically - not something the supression crowd want!

Which is why I greatly admire what Archer is doing - a selfless act.  Now let's hope it works

Alan,

I hope you realize what you are letting yourself in for here.

As for this Archer-Quinn or what ever, IMO you are wasting your time. The design is not new by any means and is simply another example of trading hight for width. With the electro magnets (solenoids)  its more of a motor that will use more power than it can produce connected to a generator.  If the permanent magnets are strong enough to move the lever upward then why should they let go of it?
