@Sohave check my video on magnetic perpetual engines

research Tesla, he had global wireless power set to go online, JP Morgan pulled the funding when he realized he couldn't meter it. Solar, is too expensive, taxed by the goverment and hogwash compared to perpetual magnetic engines or even HHO

@cyberknight2010 Why do I have to build one! it was not even my Idear. regarding mainstream BS I am already converting a car. go look at my videos.

I am a huge fan of electric cars so I would like to corect and come with help e.g. when people talk about replacing the batteries with solar cells or what I presume was some sort of badini motor setup from cyberknight2010 corect me if i am wrong . Howewer Yes solar cells are getting more efficient and cheaper.

[cyberknight2010]

@Sohave till you build one to prove or disprove it, your quoting the mainstream BS

motors, generators, even solar cells are all more efficient now

[Sohave]

@cyberknight2010 Pleas dont get arrogant! You know the power to pool amps comes from somewere! You won't expect a gennerator to be turned around as easy when it is pooling 320 amps. so your 200 amp motor would not be able to give it enough rpm/torque to gennerate the 320 Amps.

[Sohave]

@cyberknight2010 Okay, you do it then. you can start with a scale model demonstration.

[cyberknight2010]

@Sohave lol, too simple to see it's quite possible?

lets do the math, with a 20 percent increase in motor size, and a 20 percent loss of "energy"

there would actually be "NO PERFORMANCE LOSS"

so it's only a matter of figuring the right combination ;)

brw, you can buy alternators that output 320amps, and a motor that uses 50-200amps,

I don't think you would need to plug it in again, would you? :)

[Sohave]

@cyberknight2010 And what is going to spin the alternator? If you are planing on conecting the alternator to the wheels or the motor I am afriad that I am going to disapoint you. An electric motor has an efficiency of about 80-90 % most alternators are similar as far as I know so you got 20-40 % energy leaking out of a such conection.

Howewer If you have a mini bus you can place bike pedals in front of the seats and hook them up to car alternators :-)

[cyberknight2010]

@Sohave how about an alternator from a large diesel engine? or a high current alrwernator such as those available for custom car stereo installation?

epic : )

no recharge system???
