I was always interested in free energy so as another idea for a new video for you I thought of trying to create a small cost effective generator using neodymium magnets. it always runs and never stops.

How many pennies would it take to power a 300 watt computer? (of course its a scrap computer) Since its dc I would need a power inverter but how would I even begin to calculate this? Yes, I'm aware its not practical but its just an experiment that I would love to try. Also, would I need to make up a bunch of penny cells and put them in parallel or series?

Well, each penny gives you about 0.6V and 500µA (= 0.0005A). So you would actually need 1 million pennies. 0.6V * 0.0005A * 1 million = 300W. But the good news is you don't need an inverter. PC power supplies can run on AC or DC. You could make a stack of 333 pennies to get around 200V and then put 3000 of those stacks in parallel to get the current up to 1.5A But why not try it with a cell phone instead? Then you'd only need 3000 pennies.

The reaction happenning is a flux of electrons from the copper to the zinc so no, it won't recharge unless you apply the same amount of electricity in the inverse way to undo the reaction, source this is a basic redox chemistry reaction and I'm studying chemichals engeneering vinegar only acts as an acid solution to help the flux work

Well it really depends in today’s world! There are units that use DC to run, but what type of A/C are you thinking of? A car unit, a window unit, a whole home forced air unit, I would imagine all could be powered by pennies. It’s just each example would need different setups to get each one a working model. And for how long are we talking about for these setups to run? You might be better off getting solar panels a bunch of car batteries and a power converter to run a window A/C then a penny battery, at least the solar can be recharged each day!

If 10 pennies = 6 volts, and a standard light bulb uses 120 volts... You'd need 20x the volts and therefore 20x the pennies. You'd need 2$ worth of pennies to light a single lightbulb. The real downfall is the space it takes up.

+MrTerminalX It won't work anyway. You are forgetting that the light he uses is a LED, not an incandescent bulb. A regular bulb is incandescent. Assuming 30W bulbs, you'll need 250 mA current at 120V to power up the bulb to sufficient brightness. Doing the math, you'll need 10,000 stacks in parallel of 200 pennies in series each, plus a DC-to-AC converter to light up the bulb. Ignoring everything else, you need $20,000 in pennies for your experiment. Plus, it'll take a hell of a lot of space.
