NP Rank:
Magnetic generator that can power a home.
This amazing "engine" was announced to the world in 2006. I'd like to know what has happened to it since then.
440% over unity magnetic motor home generator
The following notes from the inventor, Lu Britts.
Overunity vs perpetuated motion.
Overunity as a comparison of electrical input power vs electrical power output.
In airconditioning, overunity is renamed as COP, where the electrical input power Watts value is compared with the heating value re-calculate to Watts
when operated in reverse mode.
Alot of people are getting confused as to what overunity is and presume it to be the same as perpetuated motion.
The favourite claim or statement, for a device to be overunity.
It must be able to run by itself without the input from any other source then
from itself is incorrect.
It should be firstly understood that the amount of power supplied by any generator is depending on the demand for power by its load.
For example;
If the load is a 100 watt. Then a generator will only supply 100 Watts and not 200 Watts or 300 Watts as demanded by the connected load.
Secondly, as in our case when the input is pulsed. It means that the generator must be able to supply the average input power as given times the rate of its ratio in relation to the power output cycle.
Example;
The average input power into the device is, lets say, 100 Watts.
The time ratio of input power "ON" - Vs - the Output cycle is equal to [5] or 20%.
The actual input power during the "ON" time is then equal to;
P input power = P average x ratio
OR
P in = P av x ratio
P in = 100 Watts x 5
P in = 500 Watts.
The continuous output power to its load is equal to lets say 500 Watts.
The input power required during the actual "ON" is then equal to;
The total power input requirement to its system during its "ON" period
would be:
P total in = P input pulsed power + P supplied continuous power to its
load
P total in = 500 Watts + 500 Watts
Or
P total in = 1000Watts during the actual "ON" pulse.
The above example clearly establishes overunity but is far away from being
a perpetual device.
Overunity;
If the electrical input power is simultaneous instead of pulsed.
Then perhaps feeding its output back to its input may be possible.
The difference to that is that;
1. - a simultaneous DC input supply in our device would be firstly an impossibility by design.
2. - a pulsed electrical DC input as in our device allows all the necessary input power to be fed to its system during a very short time in comparison to its output cycle.
3. - The AC power output from a device, rectified and filtered, may not be able to supply the required input power plus the require output power as demanded by its load, at the time of the input pulse is required.
Windmills effect or energy transfer ???

A further, similar response to answer a critic on youtube who asked "why don't you just plug the device into itself":
An overunity device is not necessary a perpetual motion device. If the input was continuous, yes then indeed it would or should be able to run itself. Our input is a DC input pulse for a duration of less then 15% of the continuous AC output cycle and which we rectify to a filtered DC to measure apples for apples so to speak.
Eg: assume that the input is measured at being 500 Watts of DC power (batteries) and the measured output after being rectified to a filtered DC equals 400 Watts continuous DC output power. If further, the ratio of the "ON" period is 15% of a full output cycle.
Then the average input power into the device equals: 500 Watts x 0.15 = 75 Watts.
Consequently the efficiency is the OUTPUT power divided by the INPUT power or: 400 Watts / 75 Watts = 533 %.

So far it is a claim that still needs to be reviewed and then I suppose if it works as they say then it may very well be worth investing into it rather then letting our tax Dollar go into another Nuclear power plant.
However, Energy has to come from some where and go somewhere and the equations i Physics are rather clear. Based on those their claim seems to be to good to be true.

there has to be a snag in this!Like Paschen think it sounds to good to be true.

The only half-way decent suggestion I've read about any system capable of power output greater than power input was made by Tesla who said that it was possible to catch energy from the cosmic wave that washes over us continuously. Much like a sailing ship seems to move without power if the observer cannot feel the wind. I think that deals more with the "zero-point" energy system though.

Hi Lu
I'm sure I could design a suitable method of driving the input from the output. I am a fully qualified geezer in power electronics. With proper power conditioning circuit I'm sure it could be done. I can't understand for the life of me why it's not possible.
