MAGNETIC ENERGY GENERATORS — Do they work? Are they for real?
"Magniwork" is a typical magnetic energy generator concept with plans sold for $50 — not for the generator, just the plans for building one. There are a dozen other plans out there, all for roughly the same amount. It is sometimes called a Perpetual Motion Machine or a Zero Point Energy Magnetic Power Generator, but only because it's supposed to last a few hundred years. The materials are supposed to cost around $200 and take a day to assemble.
This is the explanation of the concept given on one of the web sites:
"There are three magnets involved in this motor, in which the third magnet pulls the different sides of the other two. Actually, magnets are fine being alone as they are or if they can stick with other magnets, But if you put magnets of opposing poles together, both magnets will resist each other more but both magnets will never come to terms with one another. This is what makes a magnetic energy generator tick. For as long as the magnets will resist one another, the motor will run and generate power."
And, "... unlike [one positive, one negative] pole magnets set on an axle repelling one another, thus causing the axle to spin in infinite motion, generating free energy."
This idea sounds too good to be true, and social wisdom holds that when those conditions exist, the idea usually is.
Are there professionals in our Community with the credentials to affirm or refute the claims of these "plans"? Is it simply 21st Century alchemy? Or is there some validity to the idea?
