"There are many more useful ways to use that momentum than just extracting electricity from it."

so let's qualify the top 10 ways we can use this machine to get us off oil....

What the two Mylows  now are demonstrating is absolutely amazing: a smot with only six unevenly spaced bars leads to full rotation and accelleration of Stirlings rig!

I posted the following comments at this mylow video page

"You say the spacing is different, with a different gap. How did you arrive at that difference? You do not demonstrate this. Just glue it without even precisely pointing at the center? But this is truly amazing, I don't believe what i see. You two Mylows are even doubling the amazement with this smot-demo of only six! I believe now it to be real, but am at a loss trying to replicate it. It must be my material. I'll keep trying and will post as soon as I have a working copy."

"An explanation for why it doesnt work with others is that the earth's magnetic field is not equal everywhere. Maybe you're on a vortex point of the earth's magnetism somehow.. So a similar device in the neighbourhood should also work. Does it also work outside? Please show some experimenting with this possible location effect."

"Another explanation is a high voltage powerline outside or under your house...therefore please try this at other locations, or send this to Sterling to see whether is also works at his place. It is his rig isn't it?"

At the videopage before this one where he shows the glueing strategy, I posted this:

Indeed you are building a time machine, a kind of clock..... I have video's of my own replication, but don't load them, because I don't meet your demands. Getting the right material is a problem. My magnets are those small ones you have stacked six together like a bar, and my plate is 75 cm and of zinc (permeability half of that of u-metal, but better than aluminum). I achieved two full rotations tops with the spacing you suggest, letting go by hand, but it always cogs. Whatever I try.

So has anyone a reasonable explanation of this miracle at Mylow's?

The video on The Sweet's Vacuum Triode Amplifier (VTA)
is here:

32 min. into the video he explains programming the magnets.


If you google it you can find out alot more details.

You make a bunch of little ones and use their momentum to turn a much bigger flywheel. You just let that big flywheel spin up. With the appropriate transmission you can store all the momentum that a mylow wheel creates for free, over a long period of time. Then you can draw it off to run buses or even generators.
You can build little ones into reactionless wrenches.
You can use the free momentum instead of thrusters for attitude control in your interplanetary spacecraft.
You can dribble reaction mass like water down the axle, and it will be thrown off tangentially, and surely here there will be a reaction, hence you now have a thruster that needs no power, only reaction mass.
And so forth and so on.

I do! I do!

But I'm afraid you've already heard it.
