        Interesting idea, but as with many "miraculous devices" that are purported to be the future of clean energy, this one seems to fail. I've lost count of the number of inventions of this sort that never seem to make a good public demonstration, they all have "technical difficulties" that the purveyor/inventor blames on anything from excessive heat to sunspots.

        I have never seen a device capable of thwarting conservation of energy rules.

        I'll be suitably astounded if this device works as described, as will the world - but I'm not holding my breath.

        BTW, all the vids linked in the original post are gone.

          The old saying "If it sounds too good to be true.... it probably is"

          I'm still waiting for cold fusion and laser guns.

            I seem to remember that the commercially viable fusion reactor has been just some years away since the early 1970s...

              You old pessimists... So many people has failed to deliver a working device that it make no sense to you to still believe in a breakthrough.

              I am surprised that Orbos are being driven by such a big battery. If the device is recharging the battery, why didn't they use a decent capacitor instead?

                  You can't get something for nothing - it is a basic thermodynamic law... BUT you can move energy around to where you want it. Even Steorn fell into the trap of saying that their [now found to be flawed] gizmo 'broke the laws of the universe' ! ๐Ÿ˜’
                  It didn't need to for it to produce more energy out of itself than you put in... I know at first glance this seems oxymoronic BUT just think about things you see every day... โ“
                  A fridge/aircon unit moves heat energy from one place to another - it's not magic. A heat-pump uses 1kW of electricity but outputs say 3kW of heat - where'd that extra 2kW come from? it wasn't 'made', it was simply moved from somewhere else and 'concentrated' to useful levels - e.g. low-grade heat in ground-water or outside-air is moved into your home as useful heat to keep you warm. This does not break any 'laws' of the universe as the total amount of energy remains unchanged - it's just in a different place - your home is quite a bit warmer and outside is a tiny bit colder - since there's a lot more 'outside' than there is 'inside' the affects on the 'global' outside temperature is barely measurable. ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
                  So what does this mean? Well, my point is that if you can do this with simple heat energy it must be theoretically possible to make a gizmo that gets low level energy from other sources - e.g. the flux of the earth's magnetic-field or the solar-winds etc and then makes it available to you in a concentrated local form that's useful... Since electro-magnetic and electrical fields pervade everything it must be possible to 'tap' into them and 'borrow' some of that energy - it'd not be 'making it', it'd just be moving it to where it's needed in a useful form... โ˜€ ๐Ÿ’ญ

                    I think you are right TIG in what you say. 'Moving' should be the operative word not creating by means of magic!

                    I might pop up to Dublin a have a look at the machine in the new year! Check out this article 'Roll up, roll up to see the Irish perpetual motion machine!' http://www.gizmag.com/steorn-orbo-perpetual-motion-demonstration/13625/?utm_source=Gizmag+Subscribers&utm_campaign=50d4d4bdbb-UA-2235360-4&utm_medium=email

                    Tomaz, yes, I wonder why a 'decent' (size) capacitor was not used at least for the ongoing running of the machine, maybe with a battery to kick it off.

                    Mike

                      Like most start-ups and speculation, I think the important thing is to move money, not energy, from one location to another.

                              We got also a local "celebrancy" with free energy iniative... so far best he has done was moving some loose money to his own pockets. I prefer not to link to his ventures, but if you really want to find out, search for "utele theory". ๐Ÿ˜’
