    Seems Legit

    So I was browsing around when I run across this advertisement:


    So then I searched around for what this thing actually was, because it's "Free Energy" is obviously a scam.
    Turns out it's just this shit :OPTOEMU-SNR-DR1 - Energy monitoring unit with Demand Response capability (Wired+Wireless)

    Honestly, how can people be so stupid as to fall for impossible feats such as free energy.
    Discuss intellectually challenged individuals who get scammed/Scams.

    You were seeking love.

    I was actually watching conspiracy theories regarding the free energy and it's utterly braindead.
    I know for a fact that energy can't be made and all that, but shit it's elementary if you ask me.

    I can't re-argue with this at my current state, but listen here.
    Shouldn't this work, using magnets to power a pendulum that will generate energy from it's movement, all you have to do is to push start it.

    So when it starts (maybe not a pendulum) spinning one magnet will send it going until it hits the next one and so forth until it grabs enough speed to keep at a fairly constant rate so that we can get energy from that?

    Yes?

    That has been tried many times before to no avail. The energy created by it is only enough to sustain the motion itself, not generate energy.

    1. You'd get barely any energy.
    2. How would you get the energy to something usable?

    Hmm, I see.
    If you can source that I'd be glad to check it out, because it still works out in my head :C

    I think it's called a dynamo.
    Kind of like something you would see in a sun-cell lamp.

    Dynamo's are only viable when only small amounts of energy are needed. In order to create large amounts of energy needed for day to day use, a a dynamo of grand size would be needed. Their use is rather inefficient in larger scales.

    I've had several ideas about free energy, I just can't remember them at the moment xD
    If I come to think of any I'll share them, too bad it's not currently a viable option with the magnets.
