  • what side is the front? if the mesh side is the front, why the blow out tail? Wouldn't you want to concentrate current into the generator? If the funnel is the front, then plan on catching allot of debris in the mesh.

  • Hi there! The front is the part with the anti-debris. You could see it in other video of ours, at tipodmedia user... It´s a real video from a previous version.

  • 1 Minute of intro in a 2 minute video God! Anyone who wants to contact you can replay and/ or pause it!

  • :) the project sponsors´ required it!

  • and how many watts will this put out and the price of this?

  • Hi there, we can output ranges from 1kWh to 5 kWh. The price depends on the output and size.

  • like the music

  • 1/2 of the video is credits... which no one cares about unless they're converted to the product. Soooo... is this of use to anyone? How large is it? Where can it be deployed? Does it make noise? There's no information in this video. Frustrating. Dislike.

  • looks like useless crap someone drew up..

  • Free energy is finaly here!But the Establishment doesn't want ppl to know this,Go to LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM and get the blueprints for a genuine magnet motor ,Be part of the revolution!

  • what is the rotating box in the drive train?

  • One more thing: The flare on the exit end will create back flow at its exit end, really messing up the flow through the turbine and negatively affecting the efficiency to a major degree.

  • @jotagustavo - I agree with soulf2: What is the yellow flare/funnel for, if it is on the exit end? That makes no sense that I can see. I'm a mechanical engineer, and I can't see a function for the flare.

    Also what is the purpose of the gap between the flare and the turbine cylinder?

    This looks cool but the parts don't seem to make sense.

    I would go with a flare on the intake (screen, too). A smooth transition long before the cylinder body, to have linear/ laminar flow entering the blades.

  • I think it might run better backwards. :-) Have you done any simulation?
