Progress in our labs continues and suggests that with sufficient financial
support, now a high probability, we will meet the goal of a 1kW Magnetic
Power Module(tm) pre-manufacturing prototype by the end of this year.
The most likely unit is a transformer conversion. If this proves practical,
as now seems to me a good bet, it will be about the size and weight of a
large microwave oven.
While the target market for such generators is homes, etc., -- removing the
need for a plug-in hybrid to plug-in should be possible in about a year.
The wall socket in projected Prius conversions of this type provides 1 kW.
That provides 60 miles of driving using an augmented battery pack. As a
harbinger of the future, we will modify a plug-in hybrid so that the
recharge comes from the Module.
A few sheets on our website: www.magneticpowerinc.com may prove of
interest.
A year ago this month, we filed a Provisional Patent Application on a very
different Module. The Utility Patent Application has now been filed on this
invention. If it performs as anticipated from a rough test on a very small
prototype, it may provide 50 kW in the same space as the engine of a Prius.
By the end of next year perhaps we can replace a hybrid engine and
demonstrate the potential for all new cars produced following 2010 to be
electric.
They will have no need to recharge conventionally. Burning fossil fuel may
never have been necessary. See the Chronology in the first item on the
website for an explanation.
The surprisingly rapid melting of the permafrost indicates a planetary
emergency is at hand. Replacing all power systems that produce heat as
rapidly as is possible may prove necessary for human survival.
