Yes I can because I have exploded a rotor at 6000 RPM and the magnets dug a hole on the wall. That made me quit this for about 3 months, up to now that I have decided to build another unit. So be careful guys, I was lucky two of the magnets hit my left arm, all 8 of my magnets were almost like bullets. Built your rotor from strong PVC. Plexiglass tends to break at high speeds, also yout can use a cap on your magnets besides gluing them to prevent them from flying off.

Been a follower of yours for a few months now. I'm on the tail end of my HHO system. It's good see someone as serious about our safey as they are their projects. Thanks, Your Awesome! You be safe too.

@ZeroFossilFuel I agree. For me, that is the truly interesting part. No amount of input could be as free as the wind. I've built two Hugh Piggott permanent magnet alternators. Generally built with at least one extra magnet (than coil), wired in three phase, delta or wye. I will watch closely for the differences here and see if the Piggott design could be improved upon.

@ZeroFossilFuel I agree, but short of picking up the thing to prove there are no hidden batteries, and such, for a video (for example) there is no real good excuse to be moving any generator, period. I certainly wouldn't be moving my permanent magnet alternator for my windwill during operation, nor my genset, and it is my opinion this device deserves the same resepect! Cheers. Following your build closely. I've always admired how you present data, your work is appreciated.

Hi Jmes, you rigth, magnets can kill you....! i am using plastic resin in my projects and never had problems with magnets, is important that people takes in serious this message, and protections they do not cause deaths.

I like that there are only 11 people in the whole world watching you work on this project live right now. I like even more that I'm one of them.
You keep a very clean shop. Kudos! Keep up the great work.
could you add this motor to a windmill to make windmill that would work with out wind.would it help slow it down?i know probly a dumd idea but sometime it helps to think out side the box

@reelthing4u To the skeptics of this build I have said "If it doesn't self run, one thing is for sure. Everyone who did try will at least end up with one heck of a generator for their micro-hydro & wind turbines."

Zero can't a person do bores in rotor wheel and inset the magnets, then have a front a rear cover disc that ever so slightly over laps (smaller diameter bores by 1/32") both sides of the rotor, such that the magnets are encased in every direction. That seems to be the logical way, to me, to make sure nothing flies off during operation. Perhaps overall balance would be an issue, and such a thing would need be done with waterjet.

@KyleCarrington True. That will also prevent one from getting the stator poles too close to the rotor magnets. But if someone were to try to move the device while spinning, the gyroscopic effect might still flex the rotor enough to crash into the stator poles. Then what?

Hi. I've seen the arguments these motors do not work, even it seems like it. And I also believe it does not work. Reason is the measurement for the input current. The current is pulses that can not be measured correctly with an amateure multimeter, Please do proper measurement if you replicate this. Use an oscilloscope or a true RMS meter.

@pilleyuppo23 The use of analog meters is as close to true RMS as you will ever get. REGARDLESS, if the device will accelerate and produce excess power as demonstrated with the lamp, then whether or not the measurement techniques accurately convey the conditions is irrelevant. Excess power is excess power. The proof will be in the end result. Period.
