The machine, largely created out of leftover bicycle parts and a windscreen-washer motor uses high-powered magnets and a series of flywheels to apparently create energy from gravity.
OMG you're awesome. Throw all the physics away immediately and embrace hawkiye's precious insight on the inner works of the universe.
Err... just for the misguided among us. Would you please explain the need to "gathering more perpetual motion machines (atoms) to the form". And if your body is a perpetual motion machine as you state it shouldn't be a big deal for you to cease breathing right now.
Btw of course do "atoms don't burn sugar". The sentence doesn't make any sense. Sugar is a compound of atoms, just to help you a bit with the terminology.

How do you know that? He seems to be saying it's a generator. Which means he's probably using the rotations to turn an electric generator or something like that.
There's no output from the wheel.
As I said, if the power produced by the spinning is greater than the power needed to keep it spinning a feedback loop would make it a perpetual motion machine.
The motor is getting it past that balance point.
If only your knowledge was matched by your towering arrogance. There are so many things wrong with your statements that I'm thankful they've already been addressed. Seriously, open a textbook before opening your mouth, intelligent discussion isn't about making stuff up as you go along, it requires all parties to be informed.
Gotta love arrogant orthodoxy... As I said it is why we still use 150 year old technology for transpiration. It is amazing they cannot fathom perpetual motion...

In 1607 Cornelius Drebbel in "Wonder-vondt van de eeuwighe bewegingh" dedicated a Perpetuum motion machine to James I of England.

Perpetual motion describes hypothetical machines that operate or produce useful work indefinitely and, more generally, hypothetical machines that produce more work or energy than they consume, whether they might operate indefinitely or not.
for millions of years....

There is a fuel sorce, GRAVITY, and a secondary fuel source, MAGNETISM.
Why would I stop breathing? Should the solar system stop rotating to prove it is a perpetual motion machine? The idea of perpetual motion is to keep everything going so stopping breathing makes no sense whatsoever but I bet yo thought it sounded good when you wrote it...
Would you please explain the need to "gathering more perpetual motion machines (atoms) to the form".
Please help me out with this one. Can't find where I've stated that burning something produces electricity. Or what electricity has to do with the topic at all?
You're the one that claimed burning sugar creates electricity
Then why are you writing such nonsense:
had you read my posts more carefully I already said sugar is composed of atoms and thus atoms are gathered together to create form. No help needed here on this end might want to check your end though...
however atoms don't burn sugar.
Ah see, you have been giving people hard time because of their "orthodox learning" but, you fail to even note the definition of perpetual, or perpetual motion.

And as you said:

Millions of years just ain't infinite these days now is it?
Your own definition says it does not have to operate indefinately or infinitely.
But of course your box does not have room for the fact that millions of years of perpatual motion is millions of times more evidence for the solar system being a perpetual motion machine compared to your evidence or rather lack of evidence that it is not.
In fact that is tons more evidence then about 90% if not 100% of scientific thoery accepted as fact.
So you can continue to assert your baseless theories and I will just point to the facts of millions of years of uninterrupted motion showing the ridiculousness of your claims.
even though the solar system has been in perpetual motion for millions of years
The problem with you guys is you have to steup your own box and then claim that is the only box it can operate in. And your box assumes that things only operate within your box.
But of course your box does not have room for the fact that millions of years of perpatual motion is millions of times more evidence for the solar system being a perpetual motion machine compared to your evidence or rather lack of evidence that it is not.

Yes, but you missed the context of the "and". hypothetical machines that produce more work or energy than they consume, whether they might operate indefinitely or not.
Can you please show me a solar system that outputs more energy than is available or that has a history of eternity?
Huh? You just said that because solar systems have been around awhile your ideas are more valid than 90% of scientific theory.
Newsflash! You wouldn't know the age of the solar system if Science didn't tell you! You would still think the heavens were for Gods with thunderbolts...
