This device is the real self-running overunity?

[mijdtr]

reply 63  gauschor asks,  I find it really strange that the Rotor accelerates *because* of Lenz Law and not slows down, how come that?

I believe the answer is:  BACK emf  This is the (joe quote) “slingshot, or cracking of the whip” that creates the increase in rpm of the rotor in the generator.

i tried to bring this to someones attention months ago,, but noone wanted to even look at this device, because the idiot behind the camera has no clue what hes talking about.
[edit: not to imply that hes "stupid", but hes just not educated on these things. i didnt buy that he came up with the thing he was trying to talk about...]
i half suspected his genius-daughter was behind the actual machine, but thats neither here nor there.

the fact of the matter is, hes "free spinning the back torque"
instead of the coil causing drag on the magnet,
it spins right off of it.
the field still causes induction. but the "back EMF" is on a free-spin rotating magnet, and has nothing to "grab on to".
its a phenominally interesting concept.
if it holds true, then i would think this changes the entire way we generate electricity... i haven't had the time/materials to give this a go yet, but its definately on my list.

instead of the magnetic bearings, i was just going to use needle-points on the spinning shafts,
divide the circle by 3, have 3 magnets and 3 coils.
3 rectifiers, or you can run them series/parallel
with an adjustable feed (potentiometer)  back to
the drive-motor.

we could potentially place several magnets/coils
around the disk

Hello Joe (mijdtr),

great that you could go and see Wendell.

I guess, everybody wants to know whether you saw there a "self running device"?

Are we talking about a "so far unsuccessful attempt to build a self running device" or "is there really a self running device"?

This is not an attack on the inventor, just the wish to clarify the situation. Whatever the "situation" is, Wendell`s device is interesting. But we should know exactly where we stand.

It is of course up to the inventor, whether he wants to fully disclose his machine or not.

According to your personal opinion, Joe, have you seen there an "over unity machine"?

(I prefer to call it a "self runner", because we would not know where the energy comes from, it could be an "energy converter".)

Please do not go into a discussion about "what is over unity, what is a self runner", I just want to know whether you saw there a device that turned for a longer time without an obvious input of energy?

Greetings, Conrad

Oh brother,, what have I gotten myself into?  Lol  I have decided to reply to questions as they appear from here on in   it appears there may have been questions already answered. So I will not reply anymore until I have read the whole thread, and will only reply to questions asked after this post. I  am up to reply # 22

Good work folks, god bless, peace out, live and let live,
joe

Hi Joe,

Many thanks for your time devoted to this topic, I guess when you were writing on your visit to him you did not know you were opening a can of worms  but just take it easy... 
I think the important thing is that your impressons are good on Wendell and if you can keep in touch with him further on, then we may all benefit from his further activities provided he is coming along with a rebuilt device sooner or later that is going to be much more robust.

rgds,  Gyula

This device is very simple.
take away all the crap on the magnetic bearings
thats unrelated to the device. YES - it helps, low friction, yada yada, but its not part of the machine.

you have only 3 things.
a rotating mass
a free-spinning magnet
a pick-up coil

the only difference between this, and any other generator of its kind (Bendini probably is the most popular example)
is the free-spinning magnet.
Its alleged purpose is to eliminate back-torque during induction. All losses aside, If the machine does this, to ANY degree, the energy balance equation is thrown off, and the device would be considered "overunity".
If it does this to a large enough degree to offset the losses,
the device would be considered a "self runner".
Wether science ultimately derrives some theoretical "source" of the energy is irrelevant. The fact would still remain that the generator coils produced more than the input motor required.

The declarations that it keeps blowing up on him, indicates that he may be onto something.  The drive motor runs directly off of the rectifier, with no limitation. If producing more power than consumed, the device would accelerate to the point of no return....

This is solved by adding a potentiometer (variable resistor) before the drive motor. Then you can control its speed and find the perfect RPM to exploit the device's potential.

I encourage everyone to grab their "magnetron rings", wind up a coil or three, and check this thing out.
theres nothing "hidden", or some "secret" this guy is keeping from us. its all there plain as you can see.

That being said, i also Echo the inventors caution. Having experienced self-accelerating devices explode, i can confirm the danger of such a thing. The above mentioned variable-resistor to the drive motor does greatly improve the safety of the device, but one should still build it securely, and use it with caution.

it seems simple enough that a child could build one.
