It is not truly generating energy. Similar to solar powered PV panels, where what is being done is that radiant energy from the sun (free, as in without a realized cost of work) is converted into electricity for what we see as a gain of energy, where what is happening is a CHANGE in the form of energy.<br />Magnetic systems do not create energy from empty space. Magnetic systems utilize the inherent magnetism of our planet. I agree with the idea of what you are calling free energy generators, however calling them free energy generators is partly to blame for the ease of dismissal by mot reputable scientists. <br />Magnetism is obviously a stronger force than our Earth's gravity. We have used gravity to perform "free" work for us for centuries (hydro-power plants, grist mills). The obvious next step is to utilize a more powerful form of energy.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18232073356153510348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182962435875556601.post-57214904551763570692011-08-10T10:15:04.261-04:002011-08-10T10:15:04.261-04:00Comment directed to previous Anonymous, talking ab...Comment directed to previous Anonymous, talking about how firewood and oil produce more energy than is used to produce them. <br /><br />That's because firewood and oil have *chemical* energy stored in the molecular bonds of the compounds that make them up. These were formed over long periods of time, effectively from solar energy. Trees use photosynthesis to grow. Oil is the product of heat, pressure and time on biological remains, which died after a lifetime of feeding on animals which fed on plants which received energy from the Sun.<br /><br />Almost everything on Earth is powered by thermonuclear conversion of hydrogen to helium in the core of the Sun. Only geothermal energy (powered by radioactive decay of unstable elements in the Earth's core) and ocean tide energy (caused by tidal gravity due to both the Moon and the Sun) are not.Cogitationnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182962435875556601.post-11825122881026023352011-06-08T18:42:38.672-04:002011-06-08T18:42:38.672-04:00I found "electric solar theory" to be in...I found "electric solar theory" to be interesting.

It's from the burning of the wood of course.<br />Not from the chopping. And there is a lot more energy produced from the burning<br />of the wood, than the chopping. <br /><br />So far, standard electrolysis consumes more energy to split hydrogen and oxygen,<br />than comes from the burning of the hydrogen. Seems plausible that a more<br />efficient way to split the hydrogen and oxygen could be developed.<br /><br />This already occurs in the petroleum industry. It takes x petroleum energy<br />to distill a barrel of oil into its components. But more energy (x + y) comes out of<br />the burning of the resultant petroleum products such as gasoline.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182962435875556601.post-74607794899177679722010-10-30T21:10:36.488-04:002010-10-30T21:10:36.488-04:00No machine is more than 100% efficient; stop the n...No machine is more than 100% efficient; stop the nonsense words.<br />You can not get more out of a machine, than what you put in.<br />Only the simple-minded, think it all is simple.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182962435875556601.post-26736461831872809672008-12-03T03:06:00.000-05:002008-12-03T03:06:00.000-05:00That Zero Point Energy Generator is a hoax:http://...That Zero Point Energy Generator is a hoax:<BR/><BR/>http://www.wired.com/culture/lifestyle/news/2004/03/62794Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182962435875556601.post-51363193720393228122008-12-02T23:09:00.000-05:002008-12-02T23:09:00.000-05:00LOL, the Think Geek link is funny!LOL, the Think Geek link is funny!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182962435875556601.post-23971504196963022622008-12-02T23:08:00.000-05:002008-12-02T23:08:00.000-05:00LOL, the Think Geek link is very funny!LOL, the Think Geek link is very funny!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182962435875556601.post-89742531559276126172008-09-02T02:31:00.000-04:002008-09-02T02:31:00.000-04:00hey there is an actual zero point energy generator...hey there is an actual zero point energy generator i havent used it or messed with it any but it looks interesting and i hope to see if it cna be duplicated on a grander scale. heres a link to the site that sells it. http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/looflirpa/zero.shtmlAdam McChesneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17627089496339664565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182962435875556601.post-48208413229484935522008-01-31T01:01:00.000-05:002008-01-31T01:01:00.000-05:00There's an explanation for the magnet vs. electrom...There's an explanation for the magnet vs. electromagnet experiment. First of all, in the 2 magnet case, when there is no vertical motion, there is no work done and no energy expended.<BR/><BR/>In the case of the electromagnet, the current flowing produces magnetic force, and the current flowing through the wire's resistance also burns power in the form of heat. This is unrelated to the energy balance of the magnet.<BR/><BR/>As the battery gets weaker, the magnetic force generated by the electromagnet gets weaker, thus the magnet's equilibrium position becomes lower and lower. The change in potential energy due to gravity is actually transferred to the electromagnet circuit. In fact if there were no battery but instead the electromagnet is short circuited, the falling magnet is slowed down (a consequence of Lenz's law), and the potential energy from gravity is converted into a current that flows in the electromagnet's wire as the magnet drops, converted to heat. No violations of energy balance here.<BR/><BR/>This is the principle used in "eddy current brakes", which are used in elevators, for example.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
