The hardest part about creating a perpetual motion machine is finding where to hide the battery. That's why internet marketers just decided to sell the book instead.

[@klausstock8020]

I actually own two light bulbs which have batteries inside. When they receive no electricity, they measure the resistance between the supply wires. High resistance: wall-switch is off, bulb can stay powered down. Low resistance: wall-switch is on (as long as there other devices on the circuit which lower the resistance), so the bulb should turn on. If electricity is present, the bulb turns on and recharge the battery. These are meant to provide light even when electricity fails. And they'd react just like the bulb shown at 10:40 when connected to that "free energy machine" (no free energy required, just some resistor or short-circuit).

[@foogod4237]

@@klausstock8020 Yeah, but that wouldn't explain why the motors/generators keep spinning the whole time too. Most likely, this is just using a hidden battery somewhere to drive both the motors and an (ordinary) light bulb.. (Hiding a battery isn't too hard.. You could probably power something like this off of a couple of hearing-aid batteries (and a small boost regulator) as long as it didn't have to run for very long. My guess is that may be what's wrapped up in those big blobs of tape.)

We all know that if you want induction AC is your friend.

I was even able to lift them 6 inches from the hidden coil. oh. hold on. That is exactly what I did. It worked. really poorly. The light bulb was a 12volt light bulb. Not a 110v bulb. Others say batteries...ah. No. Batteries are DC and without some kind of oscillating circuit to turn the DC into AC you are not going to get much induction. So no hidden batteries.

That idea is, kind of, based on Tesla's invention that was actually in use in the early days of electric grid. You know, there are two types of current. Alternating and direct. In the days before vacuum tubes or semi-conductors, Tesla invented the rotary DC-converter. And there it is. The reason to run generator with DC to create AC (wich was Tesla's choice over the DC favored by Edison). So that Quick Power System is _kind of_ accurate from the historical view :D

[@Qassu78]

Ofcourse, with rotary converter you'll lose some energy in conversion. Much more than with even the simplest pair of diodes. But it works and gets the job done if you haven't invented the diode or a vacuum tube yet.

[@Hyxtryx]

@@Qassu78 How come when I google "rotary dc converter" I get only 7 hits, and none mention Telsa? There is a lot of misinformation and lies about Tesla out there. Tesla invented the AC generator. Using a DC motor to spin an AC generator isn't much of an invention, really. In fact it's pretty common sense, and would only be useful when your spinning shaft (from wind or water wheel, etc.) can't spin at a constant rate, so you need to convert it to DC which then spins a governed AC generator. Governed, so that it spins at a constant speed to keep the AC frequency constant. And why are you mentioning diodes? You're talking about converting DC to AC, and then say "lose energy moreso than with diodes", but diodes (in a bridge configuration) are for converting AC to DC, so they really have nothing to do with your DC to AC conversion.

[@Qassu78]

@@Hyxtryx I tried to find again the source where Tesla is named as the inventor of the rotary converter, I couldn't find it. But, I found an article where Tesla was named as the father of AC motor and on that same article there are two inventors for rotary converter. Charles Bradley and Benjamin Lamme, latter worked for Westinghouse Company, just like Tesla. It might be that my original source has erronous information for that reason. Anyways, that hoax gizmo isn't 100% wrong, there is a rotary converter that can be used to electrify a house with solar power. But it does not create free energy. It's actually quite inefficient since some of the energy is transferred to kinetic energy and heat due to internal friction of such device.

[@Qassu78]

@@Hyxtryx And sorry for being a bit incoherrent. Ofcourse diodes are for AC-DC conversion, so was the rotary dc converter. But rotary converter can work both ways. With a pair of AC and DC motors you can go either way. From AC to DC or from DC to AC. In that way rotary converter is actually pretty clever device.

I think you have to put some energy in to drive the rotors and that is why they say the 87% cut. You can get off the grid entirely if you use the solar panels to power the motor that turns the rotor, then the machine upscales the small energy input into enough to run your house. Allegedly.

[@tfoley7553]

I have downloaded some of these systems they do come with a 60 day money back (Which I use). The big question is why the bundle with other systems build your own solar panel, your own wind generator, etc. Now there are some that you can build that do work on a small scale like the ones that use biomass (heat from Compost) you could use something like that to charge a battery or 2. Remember if you look at your electric bill your usage this is how many watts you need to replace or I should say Kilowatts (1,000 watts). Most electric co. will give you a summary of your daily use. This is how many watts you need to have per day divide that by 24 and you will have an idea of what size generator you will need. There is no way this little thing can do that. Also you need 240V. yes I know most of your stuff need 120V. but your circuit breaker panel is set up for 2 120V. input or 240V.

[@sevenbender7927]

Actually, there is a way to seemingly generate electricity from "nothing." You take a crystal radio and modify its output so that instead of audio, the radio waves would be converted into a small amount of electricity. Of course, to have any measurable amount of electricity at all your antenna would have to be absolutely huge (a rectenna 2 acres or more across), but in theory it can be done

You could also stick a specially doped silicon semiconductor in a brightly lit location. I think it's called a "solar panel" or something. (not saying you're wrong, just pointing out another source of "free" energy that's much more accessible).

17:52 it’s definitely nonsense for powering, but back when people have no IGBT/PWM components, they way to get a strong enough sine wave signal is to run a generator with another generator. Telephones used to have such mechanisms for ringback tones.

It would be fun to come up with some obvious scam that will trigger all scam-busting people to review and debunk it. And as "review and debunk" part would involve buying the scam, one could live off all the busters 😂 Seriously though, thanks for making people aware. Even if some (most?) Of scams are quite obvious

The motors at 11:16 are so called shaded pole motors. These types of motors can't even be used as generators without completely modifying the rotor as the rotor of a shaded pole motor is just laminated steel sheets and an aluminium squirrel cage. By the way: shaded pole motors are horribly inefficient. Only around 25%'ish. That's why a industrial 50W BLDC fan is so much more powerful than a normal 50W desk fan.

It can be transferred so all you have to do is find a way to transfer the energy from something with nearly infinite power to something else. So far we have never been able to get a particle down to absolute zero they always move, so harness that movement to generate usable electricity.

[@Hyxtryx]

We already do. It's called heat. ...which can boil water, which can create steam, which can spin something.

[@hedgehog3180]

Congrats you reinvented the Stirling engine.

[@MegaLokopo]

@@hedgehog3180 sterling engines don't work at the atomic scale.

[@MegaLokopo]

@@Hyxtryx yes but we don't have a way of pulling all of the heat out of a particle. Removing heat only takes you so far before we can't remove more heat with current technology.

Imagine is self powering generators were possible. It would be so annoying. Like “the lights won’t turn off again! Did someone plug an extension cord into itself again?”

[@GeekFilter]

I thought my brain was breaking because your video inserted the Birdemic ‘solar panels’ scene right when I said it out loud!

[@jonw3738]

Ken - I absolutely love your videos. I was getting ready to sign off from work for the day and found that you had just posted this video. Need to hang around a bit longer to watch it.

It can't be a scam, they didn't use the word quantum, not once!

[@mikearisbrocken8507]

As an engineer, when I see someone talk to me about “free energy” machines they found on the internet, I don’t fight their logic. i just go: “What is the stability of the voltage? Does it has surge protection? Do you need transformers to rise or lower the voltage for home use? What is its headroom of power consumption? Does it install on the measurer? Don’t you need a proper electrician to avoid accidents? How is it powered down in case of issues?” They just shut up. Because even if they believe these thing, they realize it is not as simple to implement as they thought.

[@mariobot128]

while in the us lunch break might be 45 mins, to the school where i went (in France) it would be from 11:30 (or 12:30 depending on the day) to 14:00 so they technically aren't lying...

[@georgegonzalez2476]

Those two "generators" hooked together with a belt, they look identical to the typical shaded-pole motor as used in older fans, phonographs, and microwave ovens. Just google for "shaded-pole motor images". Voila. A shaded-pole motor is a motor. It converts electrical energy to mechanical rotation. It can't act as a generator, as it has no intrinsic magnet to get things going. Ironically, it's not even a good motor, it has low efficiency. Just enough to spin a record or small fan blade. No generating going on at all. A total scam. They could have taken a small DC motor from a toy and actually generated a (very small) amount of power by spinning the motor shaft. But no, they do the opposite, and in an inefficient way. The most pitiful of scams.

[@MrCrispy1991]

For my work barn I built my own solar panels, power storage unit and a power converter and inverter. It powers everything I need there but it's just a few lights and to charge my battery powered tools and on occasion, my shop vacuum. I know it's limits and the only way to effectively get power to the barn since it is located on the far end of my property. If there was a device like this scam was trying to sell, I would have spent everything I have to build it. Foolish to believe you can have unlimited, free power in two hours and for less than $200. 😅

[@20windfisch11]

I think I remember getting spam mail about that. This already gives away the scam.

[@Boogie_the_cat]

Me so happy to see part 2 for this! I didn't know it was in the works. Also, back my Kickstarter. It's for a hamster wheel that creates ZPE through a quantum matrix of metal bars doped with germanium. Once the hanster reaches 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious shit and the wheel will spin by itself, forever and ever unto the end of days, amen.
