Howard Johnson Replication Tube Claim

@Maw
Keep increasing the incline until the south pole side starts falling off then switch over to the north pole side. You will see it still grabbing the plate. Increase it further until it just starts to fall off and then switch back to the south pole side and it won't even make it an inch before falling off.

Nice on Lumen

As usual I got to prove everything to myself, rather than take anyones word for it.

So did a video response to you.

Hooray for discovering something new. The next question is how can it be exploited.

Nice demonstration as usual, but then it's a quality I've come to expect from you, this is one I've played with myself, thick copper plating shows the effect much more clearly, but of course copper is not cheap, one of my favorites is to drop a neo magnet down inside a thick copper tube and watch it descend slowly, of course we know this is Lenz law.
Oh how I use to dream about elevators working on this principle, if there were a power outage and the emergency breaking system failed, the lift would still fall at a slow steady state thus allowing anyone inside to come out of it alive.

Sean,

Good job,

I get the same results.    At first, using a lower incline,  the fall is the same.   But with more incline the South side falls away while the North side still grabs the aluminum.   

So, I wonder how could this affect a motor?  Maybe this key to Mylows motor?

That is the real question. Now that field direction is somehow affected differently in nonferrous metals, there should be away to use this to some advantage.  Like a magnetic field diode.

Actually I think this is what makes Mylow's motor run and really has nothing to do with the SMOT array itself since no SMOT has been proven to work in a circular fashion.
