I have built a Newman motor, it runs for about 2 minutes, producing torque, at about 400 RPM, when I use a 330uF capacitor charged upto about 300 volts. The Newman motor is a very efficient motor, if not over-unity, I tried to measure some efficiency figures, but I couldn't achieve more than 1. I am going to use larger magnets to see how it goes. Maybe some measurements were indicating more than 1 but it might be due to measurement errors. The problem with the Newman motor is the Enormous Back-emf, which prevents it from speeding up.
The Adams motor seems to be another answer, that may
achieve self running.
