I did not now about solar motors!

Here is a home-made one.

I think if you connect a generator to the mill and achieve very high revolutions per minute figures plus storing the excess energy; you will have a good amount of usable electricity for some time.

I haven't checked the industrial ones yet but I am sure there are some for companies and end users.

a nice toy - but utterly incapable of producing any usefull work

Hey ignorant ape

I am saying imagine huuge ones and like wind mills; a field of these.

I think if you limit the rpm you can directly send the excess energy to the powerbanks also and have even more energy. Why not?

Interesting find

It seems once the weight of the device is better managed, larger versions can then maintain reasonable spinning without the weight of the design slowing them down.
Add-
Imagine a metallic circular disc fabricated into star like pattern with magnetic edges placed inside a ring with magnetic points with a reasonable clearance between them. Could that disc spin continuously within the ring then and feed residual and build up energy elsewhere w/ no input energy required except magnetic?

There is a name for it I can't remember now. Its called "something" motor. =) rotor it is called. Just remembered LOL

Those are pretty cool. Looking into those eventually led me to the wimhurst induction wheels. I've really wanted to fiddle with something like this for a while.
video link since the owner sucks...

Woooow! Great share.

These motors would work far more efficiently if operating in a vacuum. They, of course, are nothing more than an simple and easy display version of the principles displayed in the old radiodyne, I thing it was called. I have one at my desk, a bulb shaped vacuum chamber with a small armature inside with small tabs that are white on one side and black on the other. When a light shines on the black ones, the force from that light causes the armature to rotate.

You could hang a steak over it and have your dog spin it for awhile. Who needs the sun? Dog gets some exercise you get some electricity in return. Dog gets the steak at the end for a job well done.

I don't think that the dog would wait for a "well done" steak.
I don't think that the dog would cooperate at all with a steak twirling under its paws.
Naw! Bad idea.

Those solar motors look cool but they also don't have much torque. Without torque you can't do anything useful with them.

I have 2 Fresnel lenses I've had for a while but haven't made frames for. I did a smash-and- grab from a couple of projector TVs on the side of the road for big item several years ago. They've just been sitting in the shed ever since. Only problem is my lenses don't focus the sunlight into a single concentrated spot like his. Mine tend to make a bar of focused light instead of a point. They're not as cool as something that can melt steel but they might actually be more useful for solar cooking or something like that since they won't melt the pan.

They're fun, but temperature is not heat.

Turnspit dogs were used regularly to complete many duties.

On top of turning meat, these dogs were also often used in a similar fashion
for churning butter, pumping water and operating grain mills and fruit
presses, explains Stanley Coren in the book “The Pawprints of History: Dogs and the Course of Human Events.”

I never understand the naysayers complete shudowns of ideas. It works exactly as it should for a solar motor. I wonder if a black silicone drinking vessel were used if it would be too heavy. This looks like a fun experiment.

I always thought it would make a good band name.

It happens when you follow the ATS energy related thread flow:

1) wow, a dunking bird! It looks fun.
2) it is alien technology! If we could harness a million dunking birds, it would solve the energy crisis
3) obviously it uses zero point energy
4) um, no, no it doesn't, and you can't get enough energy out of it to be workable
5) SHILL! SHIIIIILLLL!

This one just got to step 4 faster than normal. I've seen a version of this same thing using propane picnic tanks. It doesn't produce squat for energy either, but it's bigger and would be sort of fun to do as a backyard mobile.

Good thinking mate, keep developing and imagineering the idea.

u should google bedini pulse motor..or radiant energy charging....combine with solor.

You are missing a few steps.
Where is the mention of tesla ,the tech is just about to be released, and its being suppressed.

The appeal to Tesla is probably 1A, the near release 3a, and the suppression 6

Oh snap i took a trip to the blacklight power site and they stepped up their game. Now they are throwing in plasma and dark matter into the equation. I can feel it , this is it.

Im going to invest before they discuss their latest breakthrough , using graphene developed in their secret nonotechnogy turbo incubator.
