have a few comments:
The energy in the battery does not go to the kinetic energy of the
rotor, it
is used as an easy way to modify some
parameters of the device. Steorn does have all permanent magnet motors
( so
they claim ),
But you, as a knowledgeable insider, have never seen their
all-permanent-magnet motors?
By the way, this statement by Hoyt Stearns answers one question. The
folks at Steorn are not simply confused about things, and they are not
simply fooling themselves.
If they are claiming to have working all-permanent-magnet motors, then
either they're lying, or it's the Dawn of a New Era. You can't be
confused about whether you have something or not, and a motor with *no*
internal power source is not something you can "sort of" have, subject
to interpretation -- you've either got it or you don't.
In fact they claimed this back before their earlier demo, which was
supposed to show just such a motor, if I recall correctly; however, it
didn't.
