You aren't taking things like that into account when you say it is "free energy" or what have you. Does it create enough torque to power a 3000lb car?
How much does the motor itself weigh? I know that magnets are metal, generally, and they are heavy bitches. Ever seen a 25hp electric motor? you need a forklift to pick it up. In a power-to-weight comparison, an internal combustion engine has so far always trumped electric power.

First off, over unity is over unity, thats what makes it amazing. here is a high HP car with electric motors

Second, yes electric motors are heavy, but so are transmissions and battery packs
if I could have a car with a non-nuclear power source that would outlive me, that would cut down on my transportation expenses quite a bit.
If you have some personal vendetta against cutting edge/experimental technology, please dont post in this thread.
