A Motor that runs on Water. Runs slowly, but hey, it works! Almost like a Perpetuum Mobile. Really amazing to watch IRL.

  • I checked the website in the video and your channel without finding a good explanation on how this works...could you please describe its function?

  • @paulthehanna

    Hi. I already explained it here several times, but ok: On the left side there is water, soaked up with blotting paper, resulting in high moisture on the left side of the wheel. Some paperstripes on the wheel will deform due to this moisture, but only on the left side, causing the wheel to rotate.

  • 1st off its called a water turbine. 2ndly, totally nothing new. 3rd it would be a generator not a motor. A motor uses stored chemical or electrical energy to make mechanical energy. An generator uses mechanical energy (water in this case) and provides voltage or current (force used to push electrons). 4th, this is so not perpetual.

  • @Devoneakapimp open your eyes and look with it, then you'll realize that you are wrong and esp. ignorant. Read the working priniciple description on this page. Even a fool can understand it, if he's not too lazy to read.

  • yeah, its called a water wheel, technology old as the hills

  • @heybulldog13 You're just one more of those ppl who make a comment without read or even watch the movie with attention. There ain't no water touching the wheel. Do you really think I'd make a video about a dumb waterwheel? No, this thing is something special and the working principle is explained here several times.

  • It's not magic. It's run by a battery powered electric motor which uses water as part of the wiring system. They recommend that you add a bit of salt to the water to make it run faster. When the water evaporates you get a gap in the electric circuit and the wheel stops. I've seen these befor. There is no energy in the water.

  • Wow looking at the responses, the creator gets really defensive about this thing...

  • Vaya puta mierda de noria, que ciencia pero si no explicas ni un carajo, gilipollas anormal

  • You discredit science by stating this is magic, which reflects poorly on you.

  • how can it be magic and science at the same time?

  • @challenger159 perpetual is impossible due to friction on earth

  • with 19.90 i do a lot of pozole. i can do that by my self and it's gonna be faster and bigger and for an use

  • 19,90 $ for this piece of...? O_o

    i bet u can find it on the web 4 free

  • is that runescape music lmaoo?
