A Simple Overunity

[silverdragonrs]

thaught i should add i dont completely disagree with you mr oswald i do agree the int comb engine is less effective but we are talking rednecking it.... making something out of houshold parts... really how many of us have a 'quasi-turbine motor' laying in the back yard?......  really i do think that a more up to date engine would be more productive but at the same time it is quite impossable for most people.

No need to explain.  I have no problem being disagreed with. 

My thinking is that - of course you could generate electricity with a lawnmower.  It would at least turn a generator if you connected one.  Actually you could build your own out of magnets from old hard drives form computers... There are some guys who build wind mills and turn generators made out of old brake drums and magnets.
This would work on a riding mower or a push.

So you would have a homemade generator that you could build for free - assuming you had an old lawnmower with a rusted deck you were trashing anyways.  Of course it would not be as efficient as a store bought model... but it's free.

And - maybe it wouldn't be dangerous or too costly to build the device to produce, capture and store the gas.

But even if you could rig that up for free... You'd have to convince me that you'd generate enough electricity to make the hydrogen... much less have any left to use to power anything else.
If a 9hp generator produces 4000w - all you need to know is how much hydrogen you would need to run the mower an hour... and then calculate the power needed to produce the hydrogen... and subtract from 4000w.
My bet is that it takes more than 4000w to generate the hydrogen to run a 9hp generator at for an hour.
In that case, you're better off with the homemade gas generator.

well i know lawn mowers are 2-stroke, so bleh that won't work, (decided not to change since, you know they r , and where will the oil come from , :-D)

what about a 1000cc engine , to run a generator,

i know you can convert hydrogen , with little or no power,

expand, expand and it never stops (seeking) ,

simple , like 2 triangles that make a star , but if you mimic copy it without understanding then its a muck.

convert a Lawn mower into a Generator (Lawn Mower to generator). - DIRT CHEAP and Use an alternator.

>>Is the lawn mower running a electric motor already?  (They exist in America.)  AC motors can be used as AC generators as well.  You didn't specify.

If not, what is your startup energy source?  Several solar panels to a DC motor would require startup costs, but would also be simple---in principal---to arrange construction for.

Re-edit:
I saw your drawing above.  This, as you presented it, to me, looks like a roto-verter setup. 

But without the slack straps to wheels.  The roto-verter is said to operate efficiently when there's some slack in the system, yes?   Yours reminds me of that.
