Another try at the perpetual motion machine – the OC MPMM

by |

 

This magnetic motor will be generating rumors and speculation shortly, so if you want to be “in the know” here is the video of it in operation. The video is called “The OC MPMM – Alsetalokin’s Video”:

This page offers a description of the history and operation of this particular design.

The idea for this motor first appeared to the Steorn forum, posted by a member named “overconfident”. That is where the “OC” in the name comes from. PMM stands for “Permanent Magnet Motor”.

Of course the video is poorly lit, etc. It will turn out that this is another hoax. See also:
