LaFonte Equilibrium Motor

[Butch LaFonte]

http://butchlafonte.50megs.com/  till new site is up and running.
New paying web site being build at this time that will have latest updates on the Equilibrium Motor,
test data, and a video, plus in time all more than 1200 past design idea drawings from the last twenty five years.
The new site address when operating will be butchlafonte.com
Thanks,
Butch LaFonte

Norman and all,
The Equilibrium Motor can be configured using two magneto's, one in repulsion and one in attraction. The present design excludes cores in the coils because they complicate the setup due to domains having to be reversed and the rotor magnet wanting to stick to the coil cores which complicates balancing the repulsion and attraction force and EMF forces. The air core design operates in a NEAR magneto way because the voltage/current stays stable during the rotor movement away from the locked rotor/stator and the air core coils act as permanent magnets because their strength stays constant through the rotor exit, no generator drag. One coil tries to act as a generator, the other as a motor, but any EMF they produce is cancelled by each other so the coils just act like permanent magnets due to the steady main voltage/current source. This source energy is recycled or used for other existing needs. The coils try but never are able to function like a generator, or the other like a motor. The mail power supply to a degree never knows what is going on with the rotor, it is kind of like a team of 1000 horses pulling in a straight line, one horse tries to slow down, the horse in front of him tries to speed up, and the total pull of the team stays the same through it all.
What is interesting to see is what happens when you take one of the coils out of the circuit and move the rotor away from the fixed magnet and watch the volt meter peg to one side. Then take the other out and put the first back in the circuit and see the same thing except the voltage is in the opposite direction. Now put the two back in the circuit and watch the meter needle stay almost still when you move the rotor away. They cancel each out, making the coils act like permanent magnets.

Hi Butch,
are you now actually building such a motor
or are you only going to build a website of all your drawings ?

Drawings are nice, but the real expertize can only be learned by building
such a unit.
It all works out in hardware completely different than you would
think in theory and drawings...

Only via building you can learn the tricks and secrets the magnet fields
are playing on you.

Regards, Stefan.

Stefan,
Are you offering to help finance the Equilibrium Motor prototype?

Well Butch,
I have not seen any drawings from you, which will
make me say: "Well he?s got it..."

So until you can show a few first measurements of something
interesting, you will probably stay on your own...
By the way, what happened with the motor the father of Dave Squires
did built for you ? Why didn?t you report on this one and showed some pics of it ?

Regards, Stefan.
