  • Great Idea. Now do away with the solonid. Get yourself an old CLock. Use the large coil spring, and make a clockwork motor. then it realy is FREE. Just wind it up in the morning, and off ya go. :-)

  • MrWombatPPC, My projects are leading me to go beyond using wind up springs. It is an interesting idea though... Thanks, Donovan.

  • I assume that the problem with this method will turn out to be the magnetic resistance that forms when moving the shield through the magnetic field of the stator and the rotor. I think that the amount of energy necessary to drive the shield through the field will be equal to (ideally, and in reality more than) the enery produced bu the rotation of the motor. If one could shield and un-shield the magnets doing work that's independent of the strength of the driving magnets - voilla.

  • PeterRRadkov. Yes, there is resistance when the shield is fully extracted, but it does not have to be fully extracted to release the working magnets. Try it my friend. Thanks, Donovan.

  • I don't get it - please explain - are you saying that you are able to get enough power from the motor to move the solenoid back and forth?

  • PeterRRadkov, No, this unit was made to show the capabilities of magnetic shileding. This one is not capable of powering it self, but I am working on it. Thanks. Donovan.

  • ehnriko, Thankyou very much for the positive feed back.

  • 5 stars from me.. Excellent!!!

  • Thankyou Zeropointfuel, You & I & many more people I'm sure, can see the potential for magnetic motors. Let's keep the pursuit alive & well!!

  • excellent job! solenoid motors have great potential. keep up the good work
