I posted a short video showing the uneven magnetic drag effect with a few different magnets. I am sure it is there but don't really know why at this time.

It's almost like one field direction has almost a hooking effect on the aluminum where the other direction a light push.

Hi lumen,
Could you quickly try the same experiment with nonconductively coated magnets? Curious if there is ant "skin effect" due to the typical eclectically conductive Nickel coating over the Neos, and its interaction due to eddies etc.

Nice interesting observation, thanks for posting.

I don't know how putting some dual sides tape may cause an insulation effect on the rotors or take away some of the possible skin effect. That would be very hard to test one way or the other. I am trying to find some strong ready made plastic clips that would be good to just secure the magnets in place without gluing them because this is for the sure the most time consuming part of the learning curve.

Hi wattsup,
If you are referring to electrical insulating effect, it should not make any difference since the ceramics (uncoated) are non conductive, well no Ohms readout upto 200 meg at least.

As far as magnetic insulation goes, the thin clear tape is of the order of 0.002” so the error offset introduced as it may interact with the Al base should be negligible if any, especially as it would compare to field strength variability from magnet to magnet, magnet dimensions tolerance, flatness contact to Al surface etc.

Thanks
Mike

I'm not permitted to respond to this in the thread it comes from so I'll respond here.
It's a very noble sentiment and one I would follow myself, but not with free energy, I'll try to explain.
Think of it as a chess game thinking several moves ahead, initially the rich man can employ these people to build the free energy devices and products that might go with them, now consider for the moment the advanced automated technology we presently have, what restricts full automation in most cases is the energy to drive it, but now you have free energy, essentially no restrictions, you will have mass unemployment from oil, coal and other energy providers, now I know a lot of you will be happy to see these things go as would I, but now your going to have to find jobs for the millions of unemployed who once worked in these industries.
I want free energy to be a reality, but I have no illusions that it comes with a big price tag.

Don't worry, I want all the do it your self builders to have it. I just want a better life. If I could afford to give it all away, and the world would work well with it? I would. But that becomes the big question. How many people can a wealthy man help? and how many people can a poor man help? People need jobs and good wadges and I would try to make as many jobs as possible and try to make that perpetuate even more jobs, schools, hospitals, and more. This is not happening like it should.

look at this
this is the way to  do it
leave out your logic or brains and start do some weird stuff

The surfaces of the magnet seem different (because of marking). Can that be a factor?

Asked & Answered on YT: it is just ink.

I am going to try this with a sheet of aluminum foil wapped on wood, and on the aluminum 80cm lid I have.
