How many on this forum have heard of Joe Newman and his energy machine?

Nope. Should I? What does he have?

He has a homemade motor that runs and produces its own power. Google The Energy Machine Of Joseph Newman.

Yup, I did. A whole lot of BS to wade through to get to the device but I have seen many similar examples of the same kind of unit before.

Good searches are for overunity, free energy, Keeleynet, water wheel, permanent magnet motors, etc.

YouTube has videos of many such devices and can provide an entire evening of entertainment.

I still believe that the Stirling heat engines have potential. One YouTube video showed one running on solar power, another from wood burning heat.

Some of the foreign builders of Stirling engines have them so refined they are getting several thousand RPMs out of them. Beautiful machines purring like kittens. Those were fueled by torches.

Every engine that I've got produces power. It just takes fuel to do it!

You believe in such a thing or you are looking for a good laugh?

This is no laughing matter. Have you read his book explaining how and why it works? If the patent had been issued when he applied for it, gas would be $.25 a gallon or less today.

Nothing ever has or ever will , "...run on its own and produce its own power." You can power things with gas , water , wood , wind , flatulence , butane , horses , flippin' kangaroos or whatever. It don't run on its own. Thems the facts of life and the laws of physics. Whether some people will believe such bullhockey is a different question.

I tend to get more excited over things like the Magnetic Wankel motor (or most any permanent-magnet motor) or Crooke's radiometer or Tesla's Radiant Energy receiver. I think we definitely went the wrong way as far as energy creation when we went to low-voltage solid-state components, I think vacuum tubes and FETs and transformers and really big capacitors and tank circuits seem to be the things to watch here.

I had fun a few years ago with a big satellite dish lined with tin foil and pointed at the sun, I could set a board on fire in under 10 seconds.

There is a reason the patent was never issued. Figure it out. There is a reason it doesn't exist today. Figure it out yet? B.S.

There are or close to perpetual motion machines. The problem is trying to extract energy from them.
Also, all these supposed great inventions that are stopped by some industry, car makers, oil companies, etc. wouldn't they try to buy it and be the first on the block with free energy and make more than they ever would off their product?
Those movies look like they're from the 70's.

Problem trying to extract energy from perpetual motion machines. Is the fact that there is no free energy to extract.
Strange how so many people wish and want "free energy" so much. That they will ignore the most basic common sense and believe fantisy.

Dave, you sure sound skeptical, perhaps if we all sent Joe a little cash he would make us partners and we could be in on the ground floor, But we'd have to take our money and run because before long there would be SO MUCH excess energy we'd have to pay others to take it.

What a nut case...sounds like every other self proclaimed prophet, except that he's expounding on how he'll save energy instead of souls.

Look at the video of the machine running on solar cells. 120 watts is about 1/6 horsepower, plenty big enough to rotate a disk & a pump rotor. I got a really good laugh about him pumping water to some height - all he's doing is running a siphon with a pump in the loop. If he was dumping water out at a level 10 ft higher, then he'd be doing real work and might actually have something. The weight of the water in the downflow side of the tube offsets the weight of the water in the upflow side, with the result that there's exactly zero net energy required to move the water (well, almost zero. There probably is some tiny amount required to overcome friction between the water & the pipe).

Never ceases to amaze me that people actually fall for this nonsense.
