self power generating electrical car?
Simply put, energy cannot be created from nothing.. How are you all having trouble understanding this..They are called the LAWS of Thermodynamics for a reason lol. Sure magnetic induction creates current.. what creates the magnetic field? The energy has to come from somewhere.. Just think about it..

There are other ways to obtain energy. I tried developing this the past year while in college. There is a lot of technology out there such as the energy obtained from hitting the brakes, solar panels, etc. My idea, which I ran into a flaw is to use a magnet that spins within another magnet (or something to contain an electric field). I was able to create an electric field, but I couldn't find a way to obtain the energy. Downfall to this is weight, and it only produces so much power, not enough to transfer into kinetic energy. But, if you have multiple magnets spinning it might create a good deal of power when combined with solar panels, and the use of kinetic friction. I have given up on the experimenting, but I feel someone with more knowledge and materials could find a break through in this. The new Chevy Volt is pretty revolutionary since it uses a generator to reproduce electrical energy much like the idea of the electrical engine recharging the primary motor. hopefully someone can come with a good idea and make billions off of these concepts lol

Correct me if im wrong.... but... the magnet spinning with magnet thing, Isnt that exactly how generators and alternators work to begin with? Or did i misunderstand you.

The Chevy Volt is not revolutionary.
It's an electric car with a generator attached to it. The only way to save much money with it is to plug it in at your house so you never use the generator.
All hybrids are just regular cars with electric motors that capture energy from braking to use later.
When you charge a battery or use an electric motor, it produces/stores less energy than you used on it.

the hud is cool as hell though.

^^^^ We have a winner. How in the hell is this even still being talked about?
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE! The Laws of Thermodynamics and the Law of Conservation of Energy all contradict it.
One of the closest things to a perpetual motion machine is the Atmos Clocks.

I think as long as humans walk the earth somebody will be talking about and trying to develope some sort of perpetual motion machine. I had an uncle who tried for years, and of course, never succeeded. Even a permanent magnet motor will eventually break down.
I like how people use solar panels as and idea for perpetual motion. That isn't a machine creating it's own energy.. it's harvesting it from the sun.. You know what else did that? The dinosaurs before they died and turned into fossil fuels.. and now we burn them.. for energy.... . . . . PERPETUAL MOTION YO! >.>
