Hard Drive Perpetual Motion Challenge

[Vickers]

We will use the components of an old hard drive combined with natural (free energy) gravitational forces to create perpetual movement. Clue...U will need a magnifying glass and a steady hand.

Any more clues? I already have the harddrive

Got lots of old hard drives. Will you be discussing how to do this or is it a puzzle of sorts? Have you already accomplished this?

[Vickers]

Have you already accomplished this?

Of course not. Its against the laws of physics.
Anyway here is a pic of the only moving part you will need.

[Vickers]

Yeah I know its not that exciting. Watching an over size multimeter jumping about. But u gotta admit it doesn't stop.

[Zooty]

You gonna spill the beans or what?

[Vickers]

OK. Sorry.
What we got here is a delicate precision built voice/actuator coil. As well as a bunch of flat pack diodes and caps that can be manipulated to exceed the gravity of the actuator. Hence the Magnifying glass and a steady hand. Key point. It makes DC power. Either way. Bonus. It weighs nothing.
Honestly.. If u get it right . It just bounces. Not that exciting I admit but a good start to the annihilation of the RULES of physics as we blindly accept it as written by dead guys 100 years ago.

Sounds cool. Any more details of construction or a vid? I've torn a lot of hard drives apart just to get the magnets but have always tossed the heads and associated parts. Still have some here to tear apart and would really like to try this if you can give more details.

[Jiffycoil]

Yes, any insight as to what we need to do to replicate this?

Vague ....

I've been on pins and needles on this thread!
Truly a patient man's experimental model.

Are we missing something in the first couple posts perhaps? Can't tell much from the picture. Hard drive controllers work with very, very low current. ???

I'm so curious, my cat is beginning to give me dirty looks. :P

U ever pumped up a Tyre? Try pumping a capacitor.
