Hi Folks!

Received the following email claiming a successful f/e device using
toroids;

I remember reading something about Omnidyne once before but as I recall
when I checked out the the website URK it had no information, just an
announcement that the information would be posted in future.

I did a search and could find no omnidyne webpage nor any reference in
the search engines for additional information.

Anti-Lenz tapping has been claimed in several mechanical free energy
devices though to my knowledge none are commercially available as having
been proven as overunity.

You gave no information as to power input vs power output which I find
puzzling. The closest thing I know about use of toroids is a version of
Sweets vta that used a bifilar type toroid and the mysterious Mark
Stevens or Steven Marks (though I understand the name isn't valid either
way) device which uses some kind of excited coil to produce energy from
the earths ambient magnetic field.

The video shows it on a glass table with no outside wires to any remote
power source, yet running several light bulbs. One guy walked across
the room with the thing in his hands and about every 3 feet or so, the
device would push up against his hands as if intercepting a magnetic
flux line.

The video has a lot of people interested and one of my contacts says a
multimillionaire funded the inventor which is how the video was
produced. The story was the inventor was blowing this investors money
bigtime on a fancy house and a very out there lifestyle.<g>...now that's
the story I was told, I don't know and I don't care about that...my
interest was in the machine and how it works, can it be reproduced and
produce useful power, whether mechanical, magnetic or electrical.

Here is what I found on the Stevens toroidal coils;

http://www.padrak.com/ine/STEVENS.html

The device is composed of circular coils of wire, on one planar frame,
with one coil inside the other, like two concentric rings, and with the
addition one or more permanent magnets that are inserted into the center
(or so?) of the inner coil ring.

It is supposedly tuned to the 7.23 Hz Earth's EM field.

It is shown in 3 sizes: about 10 inches in diameter, larger, and the
largest one was about 18-24 inches in diameter. They are placed flat
(parallel to the ground) in the air (on a glass table).

When the permanent magnet(s) is/are inserted, the secondary coil
registers an output of about 80-100 Volts, on a regular VTVM as seen on
the tape. The tape calls this Voltage DC, and also says that it is
around 5,000 Hz, which of course does not make sense.

The interesting thing is that when the output is connected to a regular
lamp light bulb, it lights up just fine - so the promoters say see! It
lights a 100 Watt bulb, so the Amperage must be 1 Amp...--> wrong...

And - when the device is operating, they say it has a resistance to any
lateral or rotational motion, like a gyroscope has that same resistance
to a rotational (only) motion

Is this the Omnidyne group in the next email to INE?

He wanted US$25 million up front for the secret. We are aware of the
concept and have been designing our own version [snip]. He is VERY
paranoid about publicity; [snip].

The outer toroidal coil overheats and has no magic factors inside it
other than a length of the coil which is cut until resonance is
established. In the core of this outer toroidal coil is the instrument
package. A magnet is used and a resonance is established using the
mechanical (Lorentz) forces developed in the coil. The system pulses
with a DC component.

Tuning is a function of the coil mass and cross-sectional aspect ratio.
It appears an elliptical cross-section is required in the coil. The
converter package in the center of the toridal coil appears to be a
circuit to convert the pulsed DC component to AC.

This whole device is a low-voltage, low frequency, high-current form of
the high-voltage, high frequency, low current Moray device. Each system
has its good and bad points....
----------------
INVENTION:

Over Unity, solid state electrical output for lighting, no apparent
input, appears toroidal in geometry or similar to a Hendershot
Generator, will not demonstrate device running motors. Video tape shows
three devices of different sizes.

here is a rather negative report on this Steven Mark guy;

------------------
So, could you provide additional information about the input vs output,
the experiment protocols and maybe a rough layout?

Are you planning to sell it, or the plans or a working device?

What would you like me or others to do to assist?

Many would be interested for certain...thanks for any additional
information you can provide...
