It's even better than the inventor thinks:
.028ms * 37.62W = 1.05mJ per pulse, 3 pulses per sec = 3.1mW input, quite
reasonable for 6W output ;) Just kidding, obviously he meant, per pulse,
0.28s instead of 0.28ms and 1.05J instead of 1.05 W.
More annoying is the inconsistency of the 10 radian/sec figure (about 1.6
turn/sec) with the 3 pulses/sec: there is supposed to be 1 pulse per turn so
it should be 1.6 pulse/sec.
I hope he has been more rigorous than that in computing his energy balance
but I wouldn't bet a million dollars on it, I'd rather bet them on cold
fusion if I had them, how funny that the boring reasonable guys on this list
are the pro-CF people ;)

Subject: Re: Sprain Mag Motor
I found the following KeelyNet reference to Sprain's motor.
You will notice that he is referred to as Paul Harry Sprain,
not Harry Paul Sprain as in the Wiki article and the patent.
Sprain seems to be a remarkably uncommon name. It is probably
a corruption of Strain. 8-)

02/28/06 - Overunity magnet motor claim
This is the first OVERUNITY magnet motor released to the public! It
produces more mechanical power than needed electrical input power for the
electromagnet. It is the video from Mr. Paul Harry Sprain. I had signed
NDA for it and now he has released it to the world! It is simular to the
Takahaski design and Mr. Sprain has got a patent for it. The electromagnet
at the end of the spiral stator switches for just a few Mikroseconds the
field to zero flux density, so the rotor can escape the stator fields. For
the rest of the rotation circle the rotor is purely accelerated into the
track. All magnets are in attraction mode, stator and rotor magnets ! This
is so far the best magnet motor shown. Mr. Sprain wrote: I have been
working on this project for 4 years. I have spent a little under a million
dollars. I have a patent and a working prototype (see attached photos).
The rotational force is measured using a torque sensor that allows me to
put it under load just like a real generat!
or. I have measured the energy going into the electromagnet voltage and
current. It comes from a digital power supply so there is no guessing as
to what is being used. I'm using a super perm alloy core for the
electromagnet. A digital encoder controls the firing of the electromagnet.
My results: out-.6 Nm at 10 radian/sec =6W in-19.8v @ 1.9A = 37.62W each
pulse is .028ms = 1.05 W per pulse 3 pulses per/sec = 3.1W total input.
Please see patent 6,954,019. Some additional info about this remarkable
claim. For more details on the Takahashi magnetic spiral motor.
