Show us that this system, coupled via a pulley and an EXTERNAL measurable work load, is capable of doing more work than the same induction motor on its own, coupled via a pulley to the same measurable work load, with the same current input, and you'll demonstrate that you have created a more efficient electric motor; not perpetual motion or energy. MAYBE you've stumbled on a system that is able to recover a portion of the input energy, but not produce energy from nothing.
Since the device has no output (the coils are either shorted or open), any power it generates has to be fed back to the motor driving it. So simply remove the device and see if the motor speeds up! If the motor runs faster without the device than it does with the device and the switches closed, then it's safe to conclude that it is a net power drain. But if the motor runs slower, then you might begin to argue that it's doing something useful.
The main thing is that a normal electric motor would accelerate to infinity except back emf and friction holds it back. Thane claims he is reducing back emf, thus causing some higher speeds. Might be a more efficient motor.
However, GoodElf1 might be on to something (below) regarding how inductive circuits have a power factor (which is measurable) and thus he might be improperly measuring the current and voltage as they are out of phase at a different angle as his experiment conditions change.
if he were to allow it to accelerate for long enough, i bet that the heat from air resistance would ruin the permanent magnets, thus destroying the machine...
I'm guessing that somehow the permanent magnets on his generator apparatus is contributing to the leakage flux in the induction motor stator ( through the air ), with the return path going through the flux path from the stator to the rotor, returning through the driveshaft to the magnets. Normally, on an induction motor, rotational velocity is determined by the frequency of the source and the number of poles, however, this could be affecting the slip of the rotor/stator, increasing the velocity.
oh, and might I add to my post below, it sounds as if he has disconnected the starting winding on his motor ( you can start a motor with a bad starting winding by spinning the rotor, exactly like he is doing here ).
There it nothing odd to this. he has a motor and a generator. when the generator is turned on, then the motor wont be able to to drive as fast, as it would when the generator is turned off.
Thane has created a low frequency magnetic resonant circuit using magnetic induction feedback. Pointing to the capacitor is half the story. Instead of presenting a resistive load to the grid it is presenting a capacitively and inductively balanced load that opposes the resistive load through an ingenious system of feedback. A combination of R, L and C to cancel most of the power drawn from the grid. Unfortunately "someone" is paying for this power at the unbalanced generating end of the grid.
I may be mistaken, but it is exactly like an electric engine retarder as used for slowing heavy trucks without putting too much load on the brakes, only the circuit, or the use of the energy is just the oposite (***added*** to the engine/motor's output, not subtracted from it.
The motor turns *faster* under the *same* power input when he allows the Back EMF to enter the system.
The motor is running more efficiently, getting more RPM, but there is still power to the prime mover. There is re-introduction of the Back EMF into the system. But not enough to disconnect power. It is simply a slightly more efficient motor now.
Actually, no. Watch again. The power input is NOT driven by the motor. He NEVER claims that. He ONLY claims he can "accelerate" the motor. Then he compares the amount of power required *with Back EMF" vs. "without Back EMF" for the same RPMs. But the power required is from his external power source, just the amount changes.

Motor must have no starting torque - he has to spin it up by hand! No useful motor needs more than electricity to get going, this is why some motors have to use starting caps.
No, I'm saying spinning up a motor by hand is not useful for anything you want to sell, not just experiment with. If you want to crank a motor to become a generator, go ahead, for a few hundred milliamps.
Fair, but then you include some motor driven starter to get it going first, like how they included a battery driven starter in the auotmobile to replace the hand crank. Make sense? You have to see past the crude beginnings to what could be.
hand starting a motor does NOT make it non-useful... in fact its more efficient, you don't have to have a STARTER MOTOR and some way to power said starter motor, which requires MORE INPUT of energy
like a lawnmower... you have to pull the cord to start it... OR INPUT MORE ENERGY by having a battery and a starter motor. it just depends on how LAZY a person is
confusing an engine with a motor LOL i think thats been an undefinable argument for quite some time...why are engines on boats called MOTORS? along with a whole host of other examples. stop being so pedantic, its simply a magneto action... look up a bedini SG or maybe build one and then tell me its not useful
but since you love being pedantic, i will humor you...
"In Britain at least, one's personal transport is a motor car (with compounds such as motor trade, motor vehicle and motor sport), even though it's always powered by an engine. Small boats may have outboard motors and then are often called motor boats."
"However, the propulsion device of a rocket can be called either a rocket motor or a rocket engine, and usage here seems not to have settled on one or the other."
The magnets are slowing down the motor (that's plugged into an AC outlet btw) until he "shorts them out." After that, the motor revs up to its normal speed.
You can short the coil circuit, then accelerate the system, then turn them back on, to charge the batteries, and then when it slows down, short it again to speed it back up.
If someone says they've violated the law of conservation of energy, they either a) don't understand the law or b) don't understand their machine... that should be the law of perpetual motion machine claims. I can't believe this made it into the Star. Sad.

Correcting myself:
I said something about speed of motors, which is true for many motors, except for induction motors.
Their speed is related to the frequency of the power source.
