That's right. It's the same old issue we've seen over and over again,  
and discussed here ad nauseam.  The I*V is not a measure of power  
when there are phase angles, transient demand, varying frequencies,  
or square waves involved. It takes a fast integrating power meter to  
measure input power.  This applies to battery DC input to a device  
with these kinds of power demands as well.


Another issue is there is no apparent measurement of power output. As  
we have seen before, driving LEDs with transients can cause the  
perception of an amount of light that requiring more power than  
actually used. It appears the power produced is a small proportion of  
the power applied.


Lastly, as we all know, if there is a claim of significant overunity,  
then the loop has to be closed for the claim to be credible.


I see no reason to think the device is not a transformer that works  
by displacing a high mu material field.  This is not a new idea.   
There are commercially produced power supply transformers that work  
on this principle. They are not overunity.

The controller is powered by DC. He measures voltage and current going

pulses which feed the toroidal coil, so don't these measurements give you an 
upper bound on the input power?

Definitely not.  Their performance was measured in the high 90's  
percent range if I recall. They were similar to the Fig. 1 drawing I  
sent, except they had 8 (or more) legs instead of two. This kept  
the permanent magnet flux more constant and permitted an 8 (or more)  
phase output which was rectified to make DC.  They were used in  
electronics power supplies.  That's all I remember.   I wouldn't know  
how to find them without doing a patent search, which is how I  
originally found them in the first place, I think.  It was years ago.

coils of wire that in turn generate electricity. But nothing seems  
to be

physically moving in this configuration. I'm confused! /:-\


I haven't been following any of this so I should have kept quiet.   
Sorry if I duplicate what has been said.
Also, I should have answered this more thoroughly, sorry.   
Transformer parts don't move, but they still get energy transferred  
from a primary to a secondary.  They can be viewed as creating  
magnetic field line loops that cut through the secondary coils and  
then retreat, cutting the coil again.  These field lines can be  
visualized as moving through the center of the transformer core -  
even though it has a low mu, in order to form the flux loop that  
goes through the core. Their density in the hole of the core is  
low  so they have to move faster when traversing the hole in the core.


It appears the primary core in the video is small compared to the  
magnets.  This means there is magnetic flux that extends out beyond  
the core and circles back to the south end of the permanent magnet  
stack, i.e. that does not go through the core.  When the current is  
high in the primary coil, then only one return leg through the  
primary torus core is available, thus even more flux is diverted  
out into the space around the primary.  To the degree the primary  
current plus permanent B field saturates the core then even more  
flux is diverted out into the nearby space.  The nearby space is  
occupied by the primary.

.
.
The last sentence above should read: The nearby space is occupied by  
the secondary.

.
.

As the primary current oscillates, the B field that projects into  
the secondary coil grows large to the side of the primary where the  
primary flux opposes it, and diminishes where the primary flux  
reinforces it, but then increases on that side if saturation occurs.


I just posted a drawing, Fig. 3, in a separate email that shows how  
the ejected flux cuts through the secondary coil.  The  
alternating current in the primary ejects one side of the flux and  
then the other, cutting the secondary coils in the process.


It would be interesting to know how much power is being drawn by  
the LEDs.

As I said earlier, there is no measurement of input energy.  So who  
knows?  I think the odds of free energy from this are *very* slim.  
The responsible thing to do is to measure it, but that spoils all the  
fun I assume.





Where's the energy coming from that allegedly powers the LEDs?


It is coming from the signal generator that drives his primary.


Speaking of
energy, I wonder if the magnet inserted into the torus will  
eventually lose

its magnetism if the device continues to power the LEDs?


Sure, all magnets do.  His will faster because there is no keeper.   
The little drawings I sent avoids the keeper problem by providing  
multiple paths for the permanent field.  The primaries simply divert  
the permanent magnet B field.  It is interesting that, in my  
drawings,  the primary current increasing eliminates the secondary  
coil magnetic field rather than increasing it.
