I found it on google maps.
Re: the motor they are making, well, it may very well not be a perpetual motion machine. But it may be VERY efficient and we should keep an open mind at all times. Full testing will reveal all.

ps: here's the web address, if anyones interested:Steorn - Convenient, Clean and Constant supply of Energy

I agree that we need to keep an open mind.

The demo starts back today.

The problem is when you equate scientifically impossible to the truly impossible. My first gut instinct is that it's either truthfully expensive, unreliable, or low output. And then does it even perform. But if your first instinct is, "THAT IS SCIENTIFICALLY IMPOSSIBLE!" then you've got problems. Many people swear your MPG is directly proportional to the BTU of your fuel. To them, anything else is "SCIENTIFICALLY IMPOSSIBLE!" If it generates more power than is put into it from say a battery than it is hyperefficient, by definition it doesn't add in another source of energy because all input is accounted for, therefore there is something about the design that either produces more net power than the input energy or it "unlocks" more useful energy. Most energy is "locked" in chemical bonds and for the most part is unobtainable using conventional methods. Most "unlocking" technology is the domain of modern Sci-Fi and is usually quite simply, expensive to attempt. The "cheap" or "accidental" event of someone getting hyperefficiency is usually just a myth or hoax, not that it's impossible just unheard of. Even if someone actually succeeded they would most likely be laughed out of existence as a fraud and/or never heard from again before they were given any credit. The world is full of harsh people.

MY problem is I can't watch Youtube videos due to bandwidth restrictions. If you can share anything please do.

Magnets don't really generate work, they exert a limited force right? But unless we're talking high power magnets they're not likely to be anywhere powerful enough to sneeze at. EG. A flywheel works for toy cars but it's not practical for a big vehicle. This is the first time someone's claimed "magic" magnets. I'm almost to the point of believing that there's something magical about magnets that can be further enhanced but no one has figured it out. It could just be false Alchemy again.

Well, when they've managed to turn Pb into Au, someone let me know?

However you look at it there will still be mechanical losses in the bearings of the axle, there will also be small electrical losses unless they built the whole thing with superconductors, which I find highly unlikely...

That's not to say however it can't be very, very efficient in electrical terms with low back EMF... But to claim over 100% means you are either a moron or expext your audience and buyers are... (And I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about them...) I don't buy their claim of "producing" energy in the motor... If it where that simple we would all be using EV's long ago...

This technology seems to be over 100% efficient.

Here is the latest video they have posted.

Steorn's Orbo Electromagnetic Interaction COP is greater than 1. Part 1 of 5

In the video they show how their system does not experience back EMF, performs work due to the motion of the rotor, and has an inductance gain.

Great, so now show me the other 4 videos where they show what's actually going on, please.

Steorn has posted two more videos.

They claim these videos prove the E-Orbo is overunity.

What do you think?

They'll never get a U.S.Patent.

[Rob10_99]

Can't wait for another couple of weeks when dozens of testers prove this otherwise.
If not, then I know whats going to power the rest of the world forever then don't we?

Oh, if this does work, why is it not in production now making THEM money? right.

And I, for one, welcome our new overunity overlords.
