Goal setting...
To All: An aggressive goal was self-set and in spite of various challenges, was in large part achieved. What is happening here is this, the doers here are aware that in the real world, human set deadlines like the one set by U.P. are not written in stone and the fact that the unit was up and running but not optimized was no big deal to most of us. Over Unity stated but not proved yet? Most of us are patiently waiting, some acquiring parts, etc. I have seen only one over unity device here that was self-looped and ran (for over a week until intentionally "turned off"). Anybody here remember Bizzy? Remember how long it took for him to optimize his device? I don't recall anyone complaining - or replicating. You know why? If I recall, right or wrong, Bizzy intentionally chose not to open source all of his information.
Then you have the... others. The type that apparently haven't noticed that it takes a 10 - 13 h.p. gasoline motor to drive (under load) a generator of that size at required rpm. Hello? No one here is asking you all for anything other than patience; the stated goal of useful O.U. is already tantalizing close. Consider that, for those of you that have little or no real world experience, a partially filled "portable" gasoline generator (without a battery and starter) weighs in at roughly 200 lbs! Here the prime mover, generator, and coupling's total weight is roughly 100 lbs. Add a wheeled frame, batteries, electrical components and NO GAS TANK! A 6 gallon tank filled with fuel weighs about 40 lbs. The initial cost? At current non mass produced mode, not much more than a mass produced quality gas generator of similar specs.
So in spite of U.P’s magnanimous take on what some of you consider his failure, a small reminder: while you’re pointing a finger at him for his “shortcomings” (actually, remarkable achievements), your 3 other fingers are pointing back at you!
