Howard Johnson Replication Tube Claim

@Tinsel
Hey, that was a thorough explanation! Truthfully, I just wanted to check if Alfparts (a long time expert in pmms, and HJ's "gopher") is telling a believable story....
(I cheated - I did read the Wiki article before....)
But I do have a prob converting this "25kgf-m/s" unit to something more understandable....
(or, a "load" terms... )

@Yucca
Nice find, quite according with all the contradictions so far....

I originally used just my eyesight to determine the "unknown accelerating energy". Later on, there were already many usefull analyses of the wheel. When a YingYang wheel was shown, it was rather easy to determine an acceleration again (I used a photodiode on a counter input (directly, no prob), pointed at the YY symbol edges (the dot was to small to collect transitions correctly...))

So, what do you guys think, where does the acceleration really comes from?
I thought in the beginning, a Small dc motor in the support/axle... Or, a blowing air (from a small compressor)...
Induced EM from other sources? What? Modified old 5 1/4"" drive motor (windings) secured under the table?  ML says he wouldn't know how to fake it... What about his brother?

With enough motivation, I would make any of the aforementioned approaches workable....

Eh, I'd rather see a real working PMM.

Why do you think he is offering a prize, keep in mind Sterlng Allan has already alienated this forum with his threat to Steph, I some how do not think Sterling has the support he used to have.

Note condition #3. Even MYLOW has not done this, why should a replicator have the burden??

Isn't that what we are supposed to be dealing with? Why isn't this interpreted as a 'kick' from the rotor group passing under the stator?

Why isn´t what interpreted as a kick? please mark the graph up if possible and post to explain what you mean.

All the graph tells me is he doesn't have an optimum diameter. If he did the 'kick' would appear closer to the bottom.

Not sure what you mean, bottom of what? The overall sinus is a result of the rig not being level and not being balanced (rotors on one side) and having a continuous external driving force. The "kick" can appear at any point of the sinus depending on how the rig is tilted. The fact that there is an overall sinus signiature is very telling and only points toward external drive force.

Is the source available for this guy's coding? I would like to see what the software is doing.

More than likely, it´s all open source libraries he´s using, glued together with his own code. His email address is at the end of his video, he´ll be happy to email you the source, he´s keen to get replicators of his analysis.

All this past talk about a vid being no positive proof. I agree with that. However, the inverse applies. A vid cannot be disproved either unless you catch a glimpse of a bird running on a mini-treadmill under the table.

The software has allowed us to catch a glimpse of such an unknown exterior force, whether it´s a bird or not, well I would expect the trace to be a little noisier in that case lol.

Also the good thing about this vid is it is full disclosure, as I´m sure he will disclose source code. Unlike Mylow who refuses to get 3rd parties involved by mailing a runner or having a visit etc.

Sterling has posted an offer for a reward to the first replicator of the MYLOW motor at Yahoo groups.

"Criteria to Claim "First Independent Replication of Mylow's All-Magnet Motor"

In order to lay claim to being the first, second, or third person or group to successfully replicate Mylow's all-magnet motor, the following criteria need to be met:

   1. Shoot a video showing the rotor accelerating through the power of magnets alone.
   2. Post the video to YouTube or send it to me (Sterling) or to someone else with a YouTube account or other public video site to be posted. This will constitute the time stamp of public disclosure.  If validated, this date will constitute the time the replication was successfully demonstrated.
   3. Have your motor validated by a qualified individual or group that is willing to make their certification made public (e.g. operates for at least one hour). [Needs to be accomplished within a week.]
   4. There must be at least a 50% similarity to Mylow's design, either the Stonehenge version or the bar-magnet rotor version. "

Note condition #3. Even MYLOW has not done this, why should a replicator have the burden??

Note condition  4 There must be at least a 50% similarity to Mylow's design
                                              Y
                           any working magnet rotor will do
                                  cum on Sterling

oops--double post, sorry, lousy software
