Aha, I know what's going on. I am physicist, and this is a fake and its likely the engineers don't even know it: Very quickly: Without friction a motor can run forever. The battery provides just enough boost to keep the system going for hours or even days and then a component breaks. But because of the way they developed this, they believe they are gaining energy. This is just an example of bad engineering and bad physics of which there are plenty in the world. Shame on Steorn for this.
There's a 1000mAH battery right there. That can run that motor for hours. I don't know about you, but its not worth my time to travel to Dublin to wait around a day to watch the battery run down. Did anyone not stop to ask about that? This is braindead.
@webfulfill More than hours. Two hours to get to the coast, a four-hour ferry ( guessing ) and then wandering lost around dublin for a another three or four hours, then finding out the showing was delayed, waiting until lunch the next day to walk in a see it, and being pretty much the only ones there. And then passing out from a coffee crash an hour later. Oh the fun times.
