Energy expended = energy lost to frictions (loss) + energy to propel vehicle (kinetic energy) But this guy is claiming that while the car is moving: Energy created = Energy of vehicle being propelled (kinetic energy) Thus, if: Energy expended = Energy created (like he claims), then, by using substitution of the equations above: Energy of vehicle being propelled (kinetic energy) = energy lost to frictions (loss) + energy to propel vehicle (kinetic energy) So, removing kinetic energy from both sides leaves -only- energy lost to frictions (loss), so even assuming pefect electrical efficiency (unlikely), they have to overcome ALL aerodynamic drag as well as friction in the bearings, etc. to achieve their formula. This is one of the first laws of physics -- energy can not be created or destroyed; it can only shift its form. There is loss (in the form of heat due to friction) throughout this whole equation... So unless this guy has found a way around the laws of physics that rule our universe, it simply can't happen. There is no such thing as a perpetual motion machine, and there is no way this guy can get that car 1600 miles on four lead-acid batteries. Or 8, or even 12 for that matter. Nonetheless, if anyone chooses to believe this guy, they and their money will soon be parted. -Dave PS- The Fish carburetor was claimed to give cars 200 miles per gallon efficiency. It never even came close, but he got a lot of free publicity saying how the oil companies were trying to destroy him. He sold a lot of them to gullible folks who believed his impossible claims, but most who found themselves disappointed quietly resigned themselves to having been screwed, as it would have been too embarassing to have to admit to their friends that they were totally duped. ------------------------ Yahoo!
