We should not confuse the original post with generator in a wheel folks, I
dealt with those people in the early 90s when I worked at GE on electric
vehicles. The article talks about enough power for a Tire Monitoring Pressure
System, which requires milliAmps to power the sensor to send signals to the
vehicles computer via Bluetooth, so it's not actually powering a vehicle, just
a sensor

David, many years ago we often had people come to our EAA meetings with
these suggestions. Engineers in attendance would tell them such things
defy the laws of physics. One 'inventor' responded that the laws of
physics would be changing, so perhaps that has happened. :)
