Simple really
Whether you like it or not, the Hubbard coild DID use a radioactive component in order to achieve OU. Also, it is why nobody can get that Gray tube to work without it either! BOTH need a radioactive component.
**** A tiny bit of energy to begin with that you 'strike' with a hammer and it 'rings' longer than a dead bit of iron.
You know that you require some sort of oscillation....a resonance of something that you can harness. Well....if something is ALREADY oscillating (even a little) and then you give it a whack in the right way, this will deliver more energy back than what you put in.
Radioactive materials are already oscillating which is what makes them dangerous....emitting all those deadly rays.
Hubbards coil was basically a radioactive battery that would last a long time but it was not perpetual motion because the radioactive material would be eventually used up (even if a tiny piece lasted 20 years).
Promethium 147 (a byproduct of Nuclear fission) can provide 10 - 20 year battery life by way of beta particle emission harvesting. Other options are Tritium (used in expensive watches and Military illuminated nightscopes). Tritium has a half life of 13.2 years but unfortunately is very expensive and the annual production is pitifully low.
Paul Browns Resonant Nuclear Battery is very similar to the Hubbard Coil.
