Free Energy Device, please help me

08/27/2007 6:21 AM

I am senior Mechanical engineer I have 12 experience of material testing. I have invented a Free energy device. This Device works utilising magnetic energy in magnets. This device converts magnetic energy in to mechanical energy. I have named it indus magnet. If connected with electrical generator it can genrate electrocity. it can genrate electrocity. mechanical power or any other form of energy.

My problem is that I unable to get any advantage of this device. US Patent office is refusing to give patent for all those devices that are claiming to produce free energy. they say that these devices voilates second law of thermodynamics. But my invented device is prefectly working. can any one help where should I go ? how should I produce this device to science community and to public? What should I do? please help me.....

azeeco,

If you use CR4's search engine, you'll find that all the magnet motors that have been discussed here have been ridiculed and mercilessly blasted. I suggest you go and find some other site that will support your idea.

Good luck on your venture (you'll need it).

Vulcan,

I gotta hand it to you. You really did try to warn this guy about what he was in for. And quite accurately, too.

Your a scholar and a gentleman!

Thanks vermin, I just don't like to see (or read, as the case may be) people being lambasted. I do have my lapses sometimes though .

What I didn't foresee was the polarization of the members and guests. I was seriously thinking of asking CR4 to close this thread. I do believe, however, that we should work this out ourselves.

The world is made up of all kinds of people. CR4 is just the same world on a smaller scale (and made up of engineering types too!).

Do engineers speak the same language? They do. They just don't always agree.

a perpetual machine should be used for different cause why go for patent if you really claim to have one go further and develop for society benefit , you can couple with generator, mechanical power etc , it will not have any commercial value at all .if it is not free ,or dead cheap you cannot call it free power either( example solar /wind power even though free, is quet expensive for sensors involved), science communities cannot accept such concepts like perpetual motion , many designs came from centuaries ago ,we can have near perpetuality through efficiecy , i can suggest to promot your designs in schools , institutions

If you can prove that it is a working device (post a video) and prove that the video has no trickery, then you might generate some interest, although it will be extremely difficult to convince anyone here, because we've been through this scenario many times before.

Why not just publish the plans on the Internet and give your discovery to the world? You won't get any money for it, but you will go down in history as the most famous inventor and benefactor of humanity for all time.

And the inventor of such a device would become wealthy even without a patent. The book deals and speaking engagements -- not to mention the Nobel Prize -- would pay quite well.

I doubt that your device works (I have heard many such claims, all of the unverified so far), but try contacting the people at the link below. They will lend a sympathetic ear. But, after having been disappointed so many times, they will also ask for proof.

It's an animated gif file. There's a small app available from Microsoft that allows you to put one together. Of course, there are more expensive ones out there, too. You have to have a sequence of pictures, then these apps put them together to form an animation in a single gif file.

I suggest you contact Yuval. He's really good at it and may be persuaded to animate your avatar, provided you have several images. Yuval was the one that got my eyes bouncing. So you can see he has a talent for it!

Good Luck!

heck yeah, I want to invest all my retirement money in this one!

I wonder if there would be a way to latch onto the magnetic fields of the earth and the sun and use them to generate electricity. The gravitational pull of the moon is remarkably powerful, lifting the surface of the earth a few inches as if flies by. Tidal power generators use this force by impeding the motion of ocean water into estuaries the tide is rising and impeding the water out of estuaries as the tide is falling. There's a relatively narrow band of tides high enough to make this usable--around the 45th parallel.

Using the moon and the sun's gravitational pull would reduce the amount of fuel needed to get something into orbit. Is NASA launching when the moon or sun (or both) are in the eastern sky?

You've already done the most important first step (given it a catchy name).

Next step is to (1) put a box around it, start it up and let it come to a steady state (say 1 hour continuous running) (2) Measure ALL energy going in, making sure you use true RMS meters etc (3) Convert the measurements into the correct units. (4) Calculate the energy in. (5) Repeat steps 2,3,4 for the energy out. (6) Compare the two numbers.

Then (while realising your fundamental idea is completely sound) begin to rationalise the fact that Ein > Eout. This problem can usually be corrected by building a more expensive and far more complex second prototype. If it still doesn't work it may because of "Big oil", sunspots, lack of neutronium or skeptics. Good luck. Jeff

You are asking the wrong people for help(I am sorry to say). Every one here have learned their trade from the same teachers. They have been brainwashed into believing that what they have been taught is the only way it can be. Nobody can come up with something that conterdicts what they were taught. Down the list of replys, someone suggested ,you could try a free energy web site. At least they will give you a chance to show your stuff. If it works,Great,If not then go back to the drawing board and make it work. Nikkola Tesla in 1938 drove a Pierce Arrow car for several weeks on an electric motor and out preformed the gas engined cars of that time. Do you see anyone here doing that today? NO. Everyone here just sits back and says it can't be done. It has been done, but the collective mindset says it cant work, and nobody here has the guts to prove it can. I'm sorry for this kind of a response,but for all of the collective intelligance/brilliance, they just can't think outside the box.

Rubbish, as an engineer I'd love to see a true revolutionary idea. But all the free energy gizmos I've ever seen fail. Usually there's just honest confusion because the inventor just doesn't understand the difference between energy/power or force/work or temperature/heat or voltage/current/power. A typical claim will go "I'm putting 12V 1Amp in and I'm getting pulses of 1000V, 10A out, now I just need to make the output pulses longer and it's all go".

As for Tesla, he was undoubtly a genius, but not all things that can be done are worth doing. there are always issues of initial cost, running costs, reliability, efficiency, safety etc. A few years ago I saw an article about someone who'd strapped a JATO rocket onto a motorbike, It out accelerated all the other bikes at the track. But I'm not asking why this technology isn't being used for taking kids to school.

So, if you really want to change the world, spend 6 months going through a secondary school textbook of physics, understand the language of the people you're talking to and show a bit of humility to the millions of ordinary people who (like you) want to understand how the world works, but who have actually invested the time and effort to find out.

The World's a beautiful place, find out more about how it works. Amen. Jeff

Bravo sir! Well said.

I am truly puzzled at the correlation between a lack of understanding of basic physics and the proclivity to get offended by those who engage critical thinking and attempt to point out what is commonly know and has been independently verified thousands or millions of times. Being real and speaking the truth is not negativity or a failure to think outside the box. Being able to imagine something that cannot possibly work is not the objective. Imagining it and being positive about it will not make it come true no more than wishing it to be so.

Here's a suggestion to all the free energy folks with their feelings on their sleeve: Quit whining and realize that we aren't trying to force you into boxy thinking or squash creativity. Most of the ideas I see put forward I had when I was 14 years old, seriously! Then I found out why they wouldn't work.

I find it to be quite adolescent and arrogant to presume that out of the thousands of non-working ideas that suddenly someone who hooks up a motor in a peculiar fashion or with some extra capacitors or any number of variations suddenly assumes that they have stumbled across something that will save humanity and that thousands of people before them missed. Please, get some perspective.

Almost without fail, every request for additional information meets with none or worse, accusations of negative thinking. Thousands upon thousands of people have, through a lack of understanding, assumed that they have found the holy grail of free energy yet to date none is to be found on the market. What does this say? It is infeasible that any "conspiracy" would be so effective as to squash all the systems that worked.

I put forth that those most likely to accuse others of not being able to think outside the box are those that with the greatest severity fail to realize the box they have built around their own thinking. It is they who seem to indiscriminately assume that they are immune to natural laws instead of learning what is known, refining their methods and trying to go beyond what is known instead of trying to go around it. We progress by extending what is known not by ignoring it.

This is stupidity at its best. Inventors need to forget what is known and forget what is suppose to be impossible and try everything until something works. It simple, think that it is impossible and you will fail, think anything is possible and prove that it is and you find something that proves all these idiots wrong. Think outside of everything try everything no matter how stupid it may seem and you can change the "LAWS" that all of these people hold to be true without every trying to prove they are not. If the Wright bothers thought the way these people are thinking we would not be flying today. If people all thought the "Laws" can't be broken we would not have light bulbs, electricity and countless other things that use to be out side of the "Laws" Push the envelope try it all and I bet something great can come out of it. Rewrite the "Laws" dont hold them to be Gods word. Because they are not!

The Wright brothers were well aware of the laws of physics. They applied them, and they flew. They weren't just a couple of bunglers "trying everything" until they accidentally stumbled upon the airplane. They were intelligent, educated, disciplined inventors. They built, tested, analyzed, rebuilt, retested, reanalyzed, until they achieved their desired result. They were engineers.

Bhankiii,

The Wright Brothers in turn may well have borrowed a few things from a man who flew a mono plane, in America, 2 years before the Wright brothers. Gustav Weisskopf (Whitehead) and also Wiki.. Gustave claimed that the Wright brothers visited him. He also claims to have flow twice as far as the Wright brothers, and his claims see well supported, although critical evidence seems to be missing.. but there is lots of circumstantial evidence, as well as recreations that prove his craft could easily have performed the feat. fyi... but I do believe that the Wright brothers were all that you say.

Hilltopper you said it well ,there is little room for free thinking .

When you have "know it alls" that can only say" it can't be done ".

For a current example see the discussion I posted about the possibility of cordless devices ,there were nothing but negative comments and a month later MIT came out to say they had made significant breakthroughs in exactly the same idea.

I'm not sure if it's this forum or the science community in general but there seems to be a pervasive negative overtone .

Although in fairness it is a classic that someone has found a free energy devise .

I'm willing to listen before passing judgement , thanks for your comments

They thought the Wright Brothers would never fly as well

Hello Traditional,

I love wacky ideas and seldom disagree with anyone - even those who have an idea for an invisibility cloak or a new system of time, etc. However, I do see the need to correct "bad science".

Your comment that "They thought the Wright Brothers would never fly as well" is an old urban legend. In fact, it was widely known that several dozen people had flown before the Wrights, many quite disastrously. A number of people said that the Wright Brother's machine would not work. What they did was achieve sustained, controlled, flight and that was widely acclaimed (though perhaps it was really not the first). The Wrights had an engineering success where they applied proven ideas in a novel fashion; they did not overturn the applecart.

Tom

There will be developments in our lifetime that you or I have never dreamed.

Upsetting the apple cart is how things get done that would never see the light of day if someone succumbed to those premises

There have been many further examples of defying the norm ,We went to the moon, the atom ,communication ,transportation ,have all vaulted ahead while a man in the early 1900's might have thought everything had already been invented.

I'm sure Eli Whitney was told not to upset the apple cart but he went on to revolutionize an industry .

I believe anything can be done if we have the vision to believe it can.

That's not to say the mans devise works, at all, but I would be happy for the world if it did .

I can say I'm still amazed what technology has developed and am in awe at my cellphone ,computer and the ability for some well intentioned inventor to get a chance to investigate an idea .

I hate to be so unfriendly or un-mannerly, but even Fusion (when eventually usable in probably 20-30 years time) is still not a free lunch!!!! Energy HAS to come from somewhere......

Landing on the moon was not suddenly pulled out of a hat, it took years of preparation and knowledge, it only appears "magical" to people who do not have a clue about basic physics........or who cannot learn quickly.

Basically, even Dan Dare of the eagle (I will explain more if you wish or you can look at the web) knew years and years before that a rocket was going to be the method to get to the moon, that space was a vacuum and that space suits were going to be needed - and that was a kid's comic of the 40's and 50's.......but having the technology finished to do it, THAT is what was missing. WvB learnt in Nazi Germany and brought his knowledge to the USA, nothing "Magical", just hard and clever work!!

If you suppose for a couple of seconds that this claim had any basis on fact at all, why would he come to CR4???? He would be on the front pages of every newspaper in the world!!!! Don't just think that you were in at the beginning!!!! You were, but of just someone with a false claim, nothing more, nothing less......

He does not need us at all, unless he wants to try and pull a fast one. Luckily, most of us have been around to long to be sucked in and being nice to the "Area 51 + Martian spaceship" people, just makes them worse.....I learnt that a long time ago......

Nice friendly (mannerly) Posts like yours are like a Honey pot to these people, they attract Bees AND Wasps.......you are just too nice for this world....I am old, cranky and wiser.

By the way, if it turns out that I am completely wrong, I will publish a full apology, provided I am still alive, or from heaven (hell?) if I am not.....

I seem to have ranted at you in a very unfriendly way, that was not my attention, I just wanted to divert your attention away from the crackpots around CR4 a little, I hope that you do not feel "put upon" at all.

CR4 is fantastic, and we have to put up with such claims from time to time as I feel it would detriment from CR4 as a whole, if rules were placed stopping them, it would stifle too many good things as well. Just don't get sucked in my friend!

Have a great day in spite of me please.....

Rant over!!

I got free energy from a magnetic field! I swear it's true!!!

I was talking to my meter-reader, and found out he was a nut for magnets. So I traded one of those really powerful magnets for a month's free power!

Entropy is nothing compared to greedory!

Hi TVP45,

"or a new system of time, etc."

Not new, but this one's a little out of the ordinary, especially for those who are binary challenged.

It's interesting the Wright brothers get called as an example of radical free thinking. They built their flying machine using newly developed higher powered engines and with knowledge discovered and refined by many other people. Many people around the world were at a similar stage (some claim others were slightly ahead).

So it was only a matter of time before someone came up with a working flying machine. If you really want to know grab a book on the early history of flight.

This is, of course, not a negative comment on the Wright bros achievement. I'm filled with admiration with their skill, tenacity, clever ideas and bravery. Jeff

Jeff, well said.

The facts are facts no matter how they got there, I respect them too.

What a lot of people forget is that "heavier than air flying machines / things" have been around for millions of years, they are called birds!!! So everyone knew that it was possible, but there was just the problem of "how exactly?"

Many people around the world were at a similar stage (some claim others were slightly ahead).

A Brazilian tycoon called Santos Dumont took of with his plane for a short flight in Paris a time before the Wright's did their first flight.

The Wright's also had to use a catapult for taking off, whilst Dumont made the first taxiing as well!

I used to argue with my first wife. She used wors like: always, never, everyone.

She never understood why I wa so upset by those generalizations. Of course she was but a beautiful, innocent, 22 year-old girl.

Do you understand why those comments are so frustrating?

Please be careful before unleashing all this energy which is currently safely tucked away in magnets. The resulting surge of energy into the environment could cause catastrophic global warming.

Do you have an actual working unit?

There are some magnetic drive systems known that work, but the magnetic energy as stored in magnets decays (= consumed) and the engine looses it's power over a period of time.

Could you post a sketch of the principle, when the idea would be stolen and used by another which makes nice money from it you can always find an American lawyer who can use the publication in CR4 and prove that you are the true inventor. Of coarse you should work in your own name and not under a nickname.

Hi Gwen,

You wrote:

You're not referring to *permanent* magnets, are you? On the free_energy Yahoo group (where skeptics debunk over-unity/perpetual motion machines), some apologists have argued that perpetual motion machines constructed of purely permanent magnets could operate for a long time without violating the first law of thermodynamics (conservation of energy). They argue that energy is released by the gradual weakening of the permanent magnets' fields over time. Are you thinking along these same lines, or did you have electromagnets in mind? If the former, I can explain why this won't work (hint: demagnetization of a permanent magnet is endothermic, not exothermic). If any experts think I'm wrong, I would appreciate having my reasoning corrected.

Is it possible that does in fact use energy - by essentially running down the field inside the magnet, thus demagnetising it slowly over a long period of time?

But in any event, what the hell are you worried about? Just start marketing it, with a large prominent label on it in big letters saying "Patent refused by US Patent Office"!! Then, if it really does work, and somebody else started copying it, you have an enormous case for going to Law and suing the US Patent OIffice for considerable sums!

Hi Benno,

Your comment is interesting. It is the way to prove the invention from a businessman point of view. The inventor will gain profit through winning the lawsuit, not selling his invention.

However, once you offer it for sale you only have one year to apply for a patent should it subsequently be determined to be patentable. After that, it goes into the public domain and you loose any opportunity to enjoy exclusive rights.

What do you mean? If there is no advantage from this device, then it is crap. Dont waste your time on this.

>US Patent office is refusing to give patent for all those devices that are claiming to produce free energy. they say that these devices voilates second law of thermodynamics.

US Patent office is right. They have seen a lot of cheats and frauds in this line. How do they know if you are not one?

>But my invented device is prefectly working.

Where is the proof of your work?

> can any one help where should I go ? how should I produce this device to science community and to public? What should I do? please help me.....

Go to your mama or papa and ask for some money to produce a prototype. Then make a video of this working and post it on the web, along with theory behind this, giving necessary numbers and calculations to understand what this is.

Once you are sure this is a real wrking device and not some fake, arrange an exhibition to show it to a bunch scientists, who will grill you and roll your theory over hot coals, to make sure that your theory is does really hold good and repeatable.

Although I also do not believe the claims either, it is pretty safe to be that English is not his first language, I have seen much, much worse on CR4 than his English....mine sometimes for example!!!

We all (almost all) consider the original poster as being naive to some of the most basic laws of the universe. Granted. True story.

But, I have to say ... other than this posting above me by "guest" .... shame on y'all!

I say that because I very strongly believe there to be no reason, a.k.a. zero reason, to be so rude to the original poster. He quite clearly was polite in his question. The poster above did a good deed by answering the question asked, in a professional and equally polite manner ... regardless of where this advice will lead.

"Free Energy" .... Ridiculous? Most likely. But I'd hate to think that I'm surrounded by a mob of prima donnas that use the naivete of someone as an excuse to simply be mean. "the only dumb question is the one not asked". Does that ring any bells? And what's this about wearing emotions on a sleeve. Since when has that been a crime? That's a personality type. Not an excuse to ridicule and bombard. So what if you've seen this subject many times.

The definition of that is simply put as "bully". Reflects very poorly on all of us.

Jeeze. C'mon people. We are not all Civil Engineers. But I'd like to hope that we can all be civil engineers.

There's no excuse. Now go stand in the corner, and don't come out till you can play nice.

Very well said Obie Wan.

May the farce be with you.

All joking Aside, I appreciate your speaking out against the crudeness as posted by others. Although I occasionally have brain storms (or farts not sure which) I like to think that here on CR4 we can at least discuss them in a well mannered way.

Making fun of others for their lack of knowledge or perhaps no lack at all, just someone trying something old a new way, is just wrong.

I am perfectly willing to admit that the laws of physics do not allow for the perpetual engine to work and at best it might run itself at least until it runs down. There is however the possibility that someone might be the next Einstein and figure a new theory that replaces some of the rules of Physics.

I also have to agree with others in that this is not the proper forum to try to seek help with this other than the referals that have been previously stated.

You folks in here have great minds please don't use them to belittle others at for your own amusement.

Well, here's a possibility. BBC Television runs a programme called, The Lions' Den, in which those with a money-making idea sell the concept to a panel of venture capitalists for a share of the business. You could book a slot on one of these programmes and see how you get on?

Maybe he understood that we are not believers of what was purported to have happened in area 51, or Martian space ships, or how petrol can be supercharged with oxygen by passing it through a magnet, or holding solar plasma in a copper tube at 3000°C etc etc etc, he needs people of that ilk as an audience!!! Not us! We are too boring and staid (thank God!)

I thought that if you injected a little water into a 4 stroke engine at just the right moment, the Carbon Monoxide would combine with the oxygen in the water, (burning the CO) leaving hydrogen which would then combine with any residual oxygen in the cylinder to produce more pressure. Not exactly "burning potable water", but close....

Maybe the water jet would flash into steam, using up latent heat in the cylinder for pressure rather than dumping it out into the exhaust manifold. Just wondering if it would work...

Somebody must have tired it sometime. Any firm evidence?

You are close to the reality: water is injected in Diesel engines at a moment just after full combustion, it evaporates and brings the temperature down very quickly, reducing the NOx to a very low level.

It works in labs but I don't know of any real application,

there is also a Diesel fuel with water in solution, it has the same effects.

But what I refer to is a little film on you tube or so with someone poring water in the air intake and driving 100 km with no fuel, only water that is sucked in through the air intake.

Look up 6 cycle motors on the web, they use the residual heat after burning petrol or diesel to heat up a water spray to steam to turn the engine through a further revolution. This cleans the exhaust up, keeps the motor cool (no cooling water needed) and improves efficiency!

Goto :- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crower_six_stroke

for a better explanation

There you go steve-o! You have to see the silver lining here. It is voyeurism at its best. Like a train wreck, tragic but you just have to watch to see what's going to happen. Like some of the posters have said "Anything is possible."

Perhaps if anything is possible then I can find someone to invest in my levitation device. So far the darned thing just keeps obeying Newton's second law but now that I know that anything is possible, perhaps that means I can still use it to scam investors!

Anything is possible! Weeeeeeeeeeeeee!

I m here. I can not disclose all the details about my idea. I was just willing to know what should I do and how should I produce my idea to the world. Yes thats true I m worried about my invention that some one else may steal my idea so am very cautious. I apperciate all users who spair thier valuable time to comment on my idea. some users disappoints me and made sad by thier rude behivour. I was thinking that i be aopperciated on this web site some users have done that ( for that I m thankful to them). Since US patent office is refusing for granting patent for device like this can guide me what is patent laws or patent procedure in united kingdom or in eroupean union? please guide me? can any knows addres of royel science society of lodon? can any one tell me please what is patent laws and contact information in japan? austerlia? germany? or New zealand? Please guide me do nt discourge me. I do nt want any thing but to serve humanty and mother earth.

May I guide you:-

1) Make a fully working version, without this you are completely lost, nobody will back you up without this.

2) Then apply for a patent in your home country, with the device in your hand

If you cannot do 1) then you cannot do 2), its as simple as that......

Once you have a patent and a working version, the world is your Oyster.

Please also do remember to use the spelling checker available in CR4, your spelling is dreadful, as mine would be in your language! It gives a bad impression of your capabilities if you cannot even be bothered to use a spelling checker!

Its the Green tick with ABC above....2nd Icon from the RH side. You had 16 spelling errors in your last posting........that the CR4 editor could find!!!!

I use it every time and my mother tongue is English!! as mistakes can happen.....

Tell us when your invention is working and send us also a video link, thanks in advance.

Please also note:-

By the way, it has been seen time after time, that people with something to hide or who are not quite correct or truthful, they pick on the other people who tell the truth as they see it, as being "rude", if you cannot take the truth, then something is not quite "kosher", or you would have proof that you could give us.....so please do not throw "smoke screens" each time you are asked for some form of validation in what you are saying, either supply the validations required or go elsewhere.....

If it is secret, you came to the wrong place, anywhere the internet is not a place to keep secrets!! Its a place to publicise!!!!

As the other posters say, you will have no chance for consideration for such a device without a working model. In the US we go by first to conceive and so you could in theory divulge info and not loose your right to a patent. Many other countries are first to file so you must be aware of that risk.

In fact, if someone believed you had a working device the value of such a device would be worth finding you and taking it from you by any means necessary so there would be more at risk than your patent rights, if you know what I mean.

In reality, the most valuable thing we could offer is that we might point out where you have made a mistake and save you a lot of time and money pursuing a dead end. Since you are a mechanical engineer there is a real risk that you do not have the electronic skills to properly measure energy in vs energy out which is where many who have "discovered" free energy fail.

Good luck and let us know how it works out for you.

There is a way to save your invention for yourself without having to apply for a real patent: an invention disclosure.

It can be done in Australia and the only thing you do is make a nice document with the invention explained. You don't file for a real invention but the idea is listed and later on you can transform it into a patent (when the complete work is done)

Good luck.

Well, if you go back to my previous post (#2), I did warn you about what would happen here.

The only way you can get the Patent Office to give you a patent is to bring your invention over to them (a real working invention, not just a drawing or description) to show them that it works. Seeing is believing.

I find it hard to believe, however, that this idea has not already occurred to you. If I had a working model, I'd bring be sure to bring it to the Patent Office on my first attempt. Do you really have a working model?

You claim to be a Senior Mechanical Engineer.

CR4 is an engineering forum. Engineers are supposed to use the principles and laws of physics to build all these wonderful things we have today. What you claim to have built violates those principles and laws. Therefore, the reaction of the people here is understandable. There are a few who believe you (mostly unnamed guests) and a few who will be encouraging though still unbelieving.

I have answered your question (what you should do). Take your invention and show it to a Patent Officer. If you're invention really works, we'll soon hear about it, I'm sure.

Otherwise, find some other venture to occupy your time.

great scientist often faced stiff oppositions for there theories , nobody is rude here just ! you should produce such device practically with calculations ,if you worry for someone to steal your tech it may be vice versa too .Mind it , it will not carry any comercial value as it is free power .better understand patent laws ,we still have number of questions unanswered in laws of physics ,discoveries in chemical world are going great , such devices may work in space at present as earth laws dont permit such theories as perpetual motion

Having read all of the above, and having already lectured on simple manners ... I'll get back to an engineering issue.

This thread was about a magnet based free energy source. Probbbbably not likely. But ... let me ask this: Do none of you believe that at some point in time ... in a year, or in 200 years, or more ... do none of you believe that there will ever be a true and literal perpetual motion machine devised? Yes, yes ... we have The Laws. But even so...

200 years, given the rate at which the technology curve is accelerating (i.e. 1607 thru 1807 vs. 1807 thru 2007), is an incredible amount of time for technology to build upon itself. Things "known" to be true, by every man, woman and child, have time and again been proven false throughout history. And then we look back and say "How crazy that our closed-minded ancestors could believe such a silly thing". I wouldn't so easily scoff at absurd ideas, myself. Despite The Laws. If it could be in 1000 years, it could also be in 200 years. And therefore, it could be next Thursday. Just takes the right mind, the right perspective (out of the box is my own personal favorite!), and the right inspiration.

"Free Energy". Never??

Hi Out of Box,

OK, I'll step up and be the guy to throw pies at. Most of us are practical folks - engineers, mechanics, draftsmen, electricians, etc. We deal with the possible in the now. Perpetual energy might indeed be possible in 200 years, but it isn't now. There are legitimate areas for speculation, particularly on the quantum and cosmological scales, but ordinary thermodynamics is well established and tested. Zany science is wonderful and I wholeheartedly endorse it; just don't make established science wrong in the process. We have already too much of that in the world. Believe in cloaking devices if you will, but do so without saying Maxwell was wrong.

Tom

Indeed, we only insist on starting with what is known and going onward from there. Also the ability to disagree constructively about the current understandings about what is known is critical to working together to expand what is known. This seems to be the biggest "stuck in the box" issue with virtually everyone who thinks they have discovered humankind's energy salvation. They crumble at the first question and begin accusations of "negative thinking" as if positive thinking can magically make something work in spite of what has been demonstrated incontrovertibly.

Repeatedly I ask for additional information, theory to substantiate claims, diagrams, illustrations whatever you've got and very seldom is any well thought out response rendered. I can only suspect that it is because there is none to offer and they just want it to be so because gee, it would be really great if it were.

And indeed we might have cloaking devices, albeit perhaps not in a practical sense, but the technology exists to make it feasible. It is based on optical materials with a negative coefficient of refraction. These materials exist and it is theoretically feasible to use them to conduct light around an object making it invisible. Practically speaking it seems unlikely that you'll be able to slip one on and disappear but the point is this did not come about by anyone violating the laws of physics or just wishing it could be.

The truth is that we will never violate the laws of physics. However, we all expect our understanding of what they are to evolve and change. That doesn't mean we won't be testing and challenging new ideas about what they are all along the way. To do otherwise would be to put our head in a box and tape it closed. No one can reasonably expect others to simply accept what they say because they say so or gee it is such a swell idea.

Show some basic competency. Articulate your concepts in common terms that we can all understand and engage in discussion. We don't challenge to shove old ideas down anyone's throat. We do so in order that we may educate each other as to how our understandings may be incomplete. Who can insist that this is not a reasonable approach?

By the way the original poster was obviously sufficiently drubbed into the ground ,for anyone to ever get any details there may have been an element of an idea that was still viable but we'll never know .

I realise perpetual motion machines are favorite fodder for the peanut gallery but I haven't heard any wicked good ideas thrown on the table by the tough guys .

My mother told me "you have to go out on a limb because that's where the fruit is ."

At least the guy is trying which reminds me of another pearl of wisdom

Look, no one who is resourceful enough to be an inventor is so weak as to be "drubbed into the ground" by someone's typed words. Have some spunk for goodness sakes.

If you're not strong enough to stand up for your ideas and argue your point I question if you have the wherewithal to develop new technology.

You wrote:- "At least the guy is trying which reminds me of another pearl of wisdom"

He is "trying" as you say, but he is "trying to catch people" eventually to put hard cash into his project, that will ultimately completely disappear.....do not get caught in the net....it happens about 1000 x per day somewhere in the world....

If there was a grain of fact a) he would have proved it with high quality information, which he has not b) he would not be on CR4, but on the front pages of all the world's newspapers!!

In spite of my ranting, I wish you a great day.

Of course, I'm still looking for a bank that will cash it... But I'll find one! You'll see!!!

Hi rcapper,

You make a good point. When we have ideas, the way to find out whether they're any good is to lay them out and invite criticism. That might be in the form of a paper, a design review, or a forum like this. When people poke holes in our theories, then we have some information on how to fix them.

I don't engage in ad hominem attacks and generally will defend anyone who is the target of personal attacks. But, the hard part is for newcomers to understand they are being subjected to constructive criticism and that it is meant to help them.

I had read something about negative refraction material, but hadn't thought of making a cloaking device. I was thinking more along the lines of a Romulan device. Neat.

Tom

Hello TVP45,

Which Romulan device were you thinking of. I think they were the first ones to use a cloaking device, although the Klingons did use it later on. I like the negative refraction thing though. Just thinkin...

The practical and short term application for the negative refraction optics may be nearly perfect lenses that do not exhibit chromatic aberration. The issue they are working on resolving is the low transmission since the materials are a composite of several materials.

To say a thing is impossible is assuming it adheres to a fixed set of circumstances. Telling a man what he has isn't viable with out any looksy what so ever is at the very least poor science. Many discovery's over the years have been due to accident. Bread .... mold ....... It wasn't known why it worked at first just that it did. We don't know everything (i was as shocked as you when i found out) about the universe. The rules always have a loophole ,an "unless" or a "far as we know".

Its just rude and closed minded

Gentlemen,

AZEECO is long gone, he has not come back to comment or to demonstrate some form of proof of the wide statements he claimed.

I feel that all he wanted was to see if his scheme to separate people from their money would get some credence and victims here, obviously not, so he is gone away to find easier pickings...

As I said earlier, if I am proved completely wrong, that the laws of physics can be bent to allow a true "free lunch", then I will apologize fully.

I feel that we can forget this Blog as we are now only bickering amongst ourselves about our (my) possible bad manners......totally unproductive for everyone concerned, we are all too old to change much!!

Have a great day!!!

Andy! Lighten up! Sounded to me like he was just some young kid that thought he'd stumbled on something important and was trying (though misguided) to find someone to believe him.

Who knows, when guys can't get dates, they often resort to something else to make them feel special. You may have destroyed all that was left of a sagging ego and a raging libido!

Anyway, I'm sure he wants to keep it to himself because he worries that someone else will steal the idea. What the heck, let the poor guy walk around feeling secret and special.

Please substitute "Money" for "Help" in the Blog title........

If it was so solid this "idea" of his, why has he gone?

I checked him out, he made one post only on the whole of CR4........!! Very questionable and very little info, difficult to find him, why?

Ok now, we never landed on the moon, Castro had Kennedy killed, area 51 is the alien bio-farm, the Bermuda triangle is a time/space vortex and it takes 376 licks to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Tootsie-Pop.

Now take your meds.
