Could this be the answer to our Energy Needs ?

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?

Who needs to be pessimistic when theres hard facts? http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/ireland/2009/0624/1224249416758.html

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' !
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...
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.
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...

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.

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

ROFLMAO!
How true... from the pockets of gullible people to the off-shore bank accounts of con-men.

original links in all first post are now defunct... adding weight to the conspiracy theories...

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".

Came across 'New Japanese technology to solve world fuel crisis' recently at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fg0xeZSF0E Maybe worth looking at while having some beans on toast and a bottle of Coke

Did make a quick google search with technology terms used in vid 'New Japanese technology to solve world fuel crisis' and got this http://www.modelmayhem.com/po.php?thread_id=470664
Seriously hope that these cars have no 'gas' problems.(seems that there was a blurry hint in the image)

An update. They have prepared a solid state version that has no moving parts.
