If, in fact, there were twice as much energy appearing in the
rotor, that rotor
would accelerate with extreme rapidity, and low-friction bearings
would be
completely unnecessary.
How do you know? With regular bearings it may require more energy
then the system can
generate.
Isn't that my point? They are drawing relatively high power from the
battery. If all of that ends up as heat, and twice as much is going
into rotational energy, there should be no problem with bearings. But
hey , if I have the math wrong, let's say they haven't given us the
info to show it. I didn't do actual calculations, just seat of the
pants estimation.
