I didn't hear a claim of 100% efficiency. He is talking about losses.

Orbo can produce energy, so can a starter motor.

I don't get what is so great about this. It is very difficult to measure efficiency once the efficiency is high. As efficiency is the difference between input power and output power.

If your meters are 1% accurate, the efficiency calculation can be off as much as 10%.

I too have by judicious swapping of meters have seen efficiency of greater than 100%, but somehow I knew this not to be so.
