The Importance of Reproducing the Hans Coler 6 kW Generator
Magnetic Power Inc., (MPI), is developing technology that extracts
energy from the active quantum vacuum.
I think it's worth pointing out that extracting energy from the quantum
vacuum wouldn't violate the laws of thermodynamics, nor Maxwell's
equations, nor any of the other long-established pillars of scientific
thought (though it might do a number on some aspects of quantum
mechanics as currently understood).
It's more akin to punching a hole in the bucket to let in more energy
from outside, than it is to breaking the rules as to how things are
supposed to behave inside the bucket.
This subject is generally regarded as akin to perpetual motion and is
usually ignored by the scientific community. This is a brief
explanation of why it should be taken seriously.
Firstly, many eminent scientists since the time of Dirac have
proffered the view that the vacuum is an enormous source of energy,
not only in the form of classical photons but also and more
importantly as virtual photons. Thus extracting some of this energy
(and seemingly gaining energy from "nowhere") does not violate
thermodynamic principles.
Secondly, advances in materials science and in the relatively new
field of spintronics have produced insights into doing things at the
quantum level previously deemed impossible, like pumping heat "uphill"
(i.e. against the thermal gradient).
Thirdly, there is a large body of evidence that many devices have been
built which do extract quantum energy. There are sufficient reputable
claims to make widespread investigation worthwhile.
Perhaps a clear path to validation is most readily available by
reproducing the 6 kW, solid-state, generator demonstrated, in 1937, by
German inventor Hans Coler. A British Intelligence report dates from
shortly after WWII, refers to Coler’s developments in Germany going
back to 1926 (B.I.O.S. Final Report No. 1043, "The invention of Hans
Coler relating to an alleged new source of power" A copy is linked to
the Chronology on the MPI website.
There was independent examination of the Coler device by two academic
teams of Professors. They verified the excess energy and could find no
evidence that the work was fraudulent. At that time no explanation
could be given for the excess energy and the academics, fearing for
their reputation, did not wish to be associated in public with it.
Certainly the inventor himself had views that are scientifically
untenable. Today however, some 80 years later, our knowledge allows us
to understand why the device worked, and why the inventor held those
views, which is a good starting point for creating a replication.
MPI has been contacted by a scientist at one of the National
Laboratories who has unofficially undertaken to reproduce the 6 kW
Coler generator. We have encouraged other labs to do the same. Should
a replication prove successful, the door is open for a quantum shift
in mainstream scientific dogma, which today does not recognize that
such a device is possible.
An engineer/scientist member of the MPI team, who has been active in
this field for the last 10 years, and has decades of experience in
magnetics, has explored the Coler work. His analysis suggests how, and
why, the Coler device demonstrated that energy can be extracted from
magnetically active electrons in ferromagnetic material.
National Labs and universities have facilities infinitely greater than
we can muster as a small company. A successful reproduction of the
Coler 6 kW generator seems worthy of widespread efforts. Therefore,
MPI has released copies of our own analysis of the Coler work, to
scientists and engineers who supply sufficient evidence that they are
employed by National Laboratories or universities. A Ph.D. physicist
who was a member of the faculty at a campus of the University of
California and a scientist at a University in the UK are among the
recipients. The physicist intends to build the device.

Here is what has no place in science:
Claims unsupported by experimental proof.
These include the often repeated claims that you can extract energy
from magnets, or HTSC, or Orgones, without a primary source of
nuclear, chemical or mechanical energy. Unless someone can offer
serious experimental proof of such claims, I do not think we should
take them seriously.
Putting aside all discusssion of dipole magnetic moment and quantum
mechanical theory, I think we should all agree that on the
macroscopic level magnets act just the way springs do, and there is
no known method of extracting energy from them.
Of course there have been many claims of magnetic motors and Greg
Watson devices, etc., ad nauseam, but none has ever panned out. As
far as I know, they are all gross violations of elementary physics
(c. of e.) Can we agree on that?
If anyone here is aware of any such claim that has actually been
experimentally proved -- or even tested in a credible way -- please
tell us about it.
