questions:if it gets hung on the last four rows, why ot eliminate them?Will momentum keep turning until it gets to the beginning again?Can you start anywhere in the sequence,or do you have to start at the beginning where the magnets are closest?does the angle of the V matter? More aggressive angle, better pull?

[DustAid]

The V is acting like one large magnet. If you where to take the four out it would just move the strong gate farther way from the small part of the V. It does not deminish the gate, I've tried it. You have to start at the small part of the V to get it going. Need to try the angle bit.

are these magnets diametrically charged versus axially charged?  You've got a row of N facing magnets and a row of S facing magnets right?

[DustAid]

The North is facing up on one side and the South on the other. They are magnetised axially. You need the length to be twice the diameter so you dont get flux loops.

one more Q: did you get it right the first time?

[masm60]

It seems like you could mount the magnet you are holding on two spring loaded arms and push it back with a cam mounted on the side of the wheel. Just a thought.

I'm going to dive back into it once I can get above water with another invention I just launched.

[DustAid]

By using the spining motor you can hook up a low friction monopole coil in a series and produce electricity.

questions: how far apart are the magnets spaced from one another?what is the diameter of the wheel?I made my own,but I think my wheel is too small in dia,and the magnets are too far apart - it wants to get hug up on each rung of the V, rather than move on to the next one.

[DustAid]

I've been slammed with launching an international product and I'm a week away from the largest trade show in Vegas, so I've had to set this aside for a little bit. Gotta pay the bills.

[Techrubbish]

Very awsome! We may be getting close to a self suficent motor... But then we have the whole energy output for uses other than to keep itself running... If that makes sense... I belive we are getting there none the less! Great job!

Bingo...thought the same thing. Wouldn't even need the springs if it was mounted on top of the rotor - gravity would hold it down as well as the pull of the magnets. The whole point being, to mechanize his hand movements.
