  • If you have a motor, OK. But if you are the motor, forget it.

    Relative high loses (not disclaimed on the site), heavy (3.85-3.95 kg!).

  • Due to the phase change fluid being used, internal friction losses are very comparable to any planetary-geared hub - think Nexus, for example. Or most car transmissions.

  • @Flo4u2u You obviously missed the whole concept. Badly.

  • GM developed a CVT in the 50s like that, but materials at the time couldn't effectively transmit engine power. The clamping forces needed to transfer the power of a V8 with out excessive slipping was pretty much crushing the spheres.

  • any where you touch the ball its going to be same surface!!!!

  • Dude get the big and small radius the right way round.

  • @bartdereu ditto

  • are thera any way to use it in the midime size generator ?!!

    i shud try thate mybe i can save my gas mony by that cvt transmission :)

  • @burninmunkeys immigrants would only complain and get the goverment to change it back,

    fucking immigrants.

  • watched it a hundred times, i still don't get it !

  • I have watches hundreds of simulations, none of them so clearly as how this guy explains it!

    But it doesn't look so maintenance-free as many people say it is!
