The least I'd expect is superconductors used to create levitating zero friction bearings and the all the moving parts to be in a vacuum to eliminate air resistance.

Do you believe somethingthis simple has been overlooked? people have been trying to make a free energy device for such a long time and people who have claimed they had something that works either prove to be fraudsters or crazy (saying stuff like, it worked earlier or magically only ever working when the creator is alone).

There is a lot of skepticism for good reason, this is most likey BS, I hope that the investors didn:t spend too much money! Also there are so many questions, it looks like a simple device, why would it need way over 3 days prep work to setup? why didnt they bring a spare if it is so finicky? why did the spare bearings they installed fail also?

At the end of the day, extrodinary claims require extrodinary evidence. If they really so it, great! but dont be surprised if they fail. Of course we know the consiquences if it can work, but the physics really says it is not possible. It reminds me of the cold fusion and zero-point-energy debacles.

Theres nothing to slow the damn thing down, or keep it at a constant speed, so in theory, It'll just keep spinning until it reaches some stupid speed, then implode, or something..

I don't think their investors are creepy, I think the investors are highly intelligent. Any of those investors out there, contact me because I have a super secret device I can't even tell YOU about. Just give me the money and I gaurentee that I will get results when I am alone with the device (it won't work for anyone else and it cannot be recorded either or it won't work). I think a nice sum of say $100,000 per investor would be very nice for me, I mean so I could make my device work.

Come on people, he is a sam artist, and he really is good because he has a lot of people willing to give him money and others who are willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. ]]>Jul 11th 2007 8:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/11/steorns-orbo-device-exploded-for-dissection-not-the-apocaly/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/11/steorns-orbo-device-exploded-for-dissection-not-the-apocaly/Jul 11th 2007 8:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/11/steorns-orbo-device-exploded-for-dissection-not-the-apocaly/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/11/steorns-orbo-device-exploded-for-dissection-not-the-apocaly/Jul 11th 2007 10:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/11/steorns-orbo-device-exploded-for-dissection-not-the-apocaly/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/11/steorns-orbo-device-exploded-for-dissection-not-the-apocaly/Jul 11th 2007 4:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/11/steorns-orbo-device-exploded-for-dissection-not-the-apocaly/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/11/steorns-orbo-device-exploded-for-dissection-not-the-apocaly/Jul 11th 2007 7:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/11/steorns-orbo-device-exploded-for-dissection-not-the-apocaly/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/11/steorns-orbo-device-exploded-for-dissection-not-the-apocaly/
Leonardo DeVinci did not invent the helicopter. Leonardo designed concepts for a flying machine that was based on generating vertical lift (that bears no relation to ou rmodern helicopters whatsoever). He never made a working model. There is a vast difference between an invention and designing concepts. This is not to say that Leonardo didn't have fantastic inspiring and brilliant ideas, because he had many.

But to say that we shouldn't mock someone who is clearly making claims that violate all the known and proven laws of physics is silly. Claims of perpetual motion are ridiculous and should be summarily ignored unless extraordinary evidence is presented without regard for location, time or audience present. This has never been the case. There is no creation of energy without expenditure of energy and/or matter. In either case you lose something and the gains never exceed the losses, and in most cases the losses FAR outweigh the gains.

Those who believe perpetual motion just might be true display a fundamental ignorance of basic physics and scientific principles. Go back to the plibrary and do some reading. I will not call you foolish, however, because it's not my position to judge you, nor the circumstances of your education (or possible lack thereof).
