This is my second Newman Motor I have built. Check My other vids to see one I made that had a small generator built in.
This Motor Was Made With:
-700 Feet 20 Gauge Magnet Wire
-2 Ring Magnets 4" OD I believe
-PVC Pipe For The Core
-2 Skateboard Bearings
-Copper Wire Commutator
- (1) 9V Battery Power Source (in this vid)
- Wood Frame

Once I improve the commutator design, I will be using this motor to take measurements and I will be sure to post up the results.
Thanks for watching!
Feel free to check out my other vids I have on youtube showing some of my other magnet related projects!

  • Not just the crude circuit, the coils and windings are not right. Try thickening the coils on the "poles" of the static cylinder (pot)and none in the middle of the cylinder, just one wire of passing by between the "two pole" coils.

  • I have done this in later videos. Thanks for the suggestions.

  • Whats the torque power level of your replication? If I create a DC generator and connect it on the other end of the spinning side to generate electricity followed by a rechargeable 12V Sealed Lead Acid Battery and a bridge rectifyer to ensure a one direction power travel, would the power of the DC generator be sronger than the power being consummed to power up your unit?

  • No, once you put an electrical load on the generator you will slow the machine down. Depending on your generator design you may have better success than I have. I was only able to get about 3-4V DC out of the generator end but again, my design was very crude.. I wouldnt get your hopes up though.

  • Remove the battery; and replace it with a capacitor? Get it going and remove the battery. 1. Will it maintain motion? 2. Charge the capacitor? 3. Turn an alternator or

    generator to produce useful work? G.

  • It wont maintain motion because of the way I have built the circuit. It will charge 200V caps though and when I power it off a 9V battery it will charge up a 9v battery at the same time while drawing less than 100 milliamps! When the battery dies I can then swap batteries and keep it going.. more work to be done here.. check my newer videos for details.

  • Could you explain the entire circuit and what order it is put together?
