I suggest all the skeptics go to this site. Itpeswiki.com... It's not a quack site and they have lots of egineers and scientists who debunk bogus claims. They also reassure real claims. As I have been going to this site for years I came to realize all the solutions for at least tripling efficiency are and have been here for years. I don't have have a strong opinion on over unity but that doesn't really matter. There are so many efficiency upgrades, stand alone energy sources, etc that would make our energy clean and cheap. Over unity would mean free and it may be possible.
The law of thermo dynamics does not need to be destroyed to have "temporary" over unity. It is just that the cycle of energy production is so long it appears that way. Like the sun giving us free energy, eventually the sun will burn out but right now it appears like an endless source of energy. Or perpetual motion machines that go on for years. It may not be truly perpetual but it sure could teach us about efiiciency and ballance in design Cold fusion is also getting close. Even the Navy labs have said so.edit on 25-2-2011 by Movescamp because: Add link

Over unity believers? Wait let me guess you are a closed minded engineer who will site the laws of thermo dynamics? They apply to mechanical energy. Not ambient energy or electricity. What he is most likely doing is just converting resonant waves into a workable form of electricity. Tesla showed how you can tune devices to change and transmit waves. I suggest you look at peswiki.com. There are a lot of inventors and scientists information there. Obviously we don't need to have over unity. All we need to do is triple our efficiency. Pretty easy to do if you just step away from combustion. If you honestly can not believe that the energy sector controls the innovation (since they were the investors when it was invented) you have absolutely no idea what has gone on through history.
I suggest reading more about the atmosphere around world war one. J d rockefellor, j p Morgan, Westinghouse, etc. It's pretty obvious there was a plan to control energy to control the economy. Rockefellor himself describes his plans.

It's sad really. But without these so called "nut cases" like tesla, the write brothers, Einstein, etc. We would still prob be apes. I am sure the first man to create fire was told it's not possible and denies the known laws of the time.

Short story is they are out there you just have to look. Go to peswiki it's a good start. Than go to the events where these people bring their products. I have.
Production and in invention are a long way from each other and require money. As does marketing.

If you went to trade shows on a regular basis, do your own research, and go to industry events you will find the answer to your argument.

Most of these inventors are well aware of what happens to their inventions once the wrong investors are in place. They are also weary of contract details and owner ship clauses for pattents.

The only energy crisis we have is perception. Once people come around to care more their will be more information available. It's already their you just aren't willing to look and the boy who cried wolf left a bad taste in your mouth.

Right because solar panels are so heavily used. The ones the mainstream uses are about 20 percent efficient and require very expensive grid tie systems or very expensive batteries.

Bucky fuller invented a better way to build houses why don't we all live in domes? He also layed out a system of hydroelectric, tidal, geothermal, wind, and solar across the us and Canada that would more than get us off oil it would have provided a switch over for oil workers. Just lime his Dymaxion
Car in the 40's would have used all the aircraft machinist who were layed off after the war. The car a real invention went 100 miles an hour, got 35 miles per gallon and seated 11 people. With a model t engine. Later he designed the car to have independent motors on every wheel to expell the loss of energy from the drive train.
So why didn't people invest in his car? They preferred their cart and buggy looking automobiles? Some people are ahead of their time and it takes years for the public to catch up.

I couldn't agree more. It applies to the energy sector too. I also said create fire. Meaning purposely making one. I suppose making lightning even though it was "all around us" took about 200,000 years to figure out it's usefulness. Your comment is ridiculous. Atoms are all around us, gamma rays, radio waves, but that doesn't mean it is obvious to provide and manipulate it's use. People thought tesla was a black magician. I am sure the first one to figure out how to make, control, and use fire seemed like a magician too.edit on 25-2-2011 by Movescamp because: (no reason given)

Because solar panels are very expensive and very ineffecient. The don't really produce "free" energy due to the periphials you need to purchase to keep the system going, and the repeat expenditures for replacement batteries.
