An Outline of Magnetic Power’s Goals for 2007

Background: Hans Coler, a German scientist, first demonstrated a solid-state magnetic generator in 1926. In 1937, he built a 6 kW solid-state unit and later was supported by the German Navy. His lab was destroyed by an Allied bomb in 1945, but he survived and after WWII ended, he cooperated with British Intelligence, which issued a Report in 1946, supporting the conclusion that the achievement was genuine. Coler was not able to explain how his inventions worked, but realized they were tapping what he termed “Space Energy” and challenged contemporary scientific understanding.

Conversion of energy from the Quantum Vacuum: Now usually referred to as Zero Point Energy, ZPE. Conversion of ZPE as an energy source has only emerged as serious science since publication of a 1984 paper in the refereed journal Physical Review B, by the late Dr. Robert Forward, then a physicist at Hughes Aircraft. The USAF issued a Request for Proposals based on ZPE for Power and Propulsion in 1986. Aviation Week and Space Technology featured ZPE in the March 1, 2004 issue, discussing aerospace propulsion research at BAE, which openly stated they were seeking to develop Mach 4 fighter aircraft. The article also mentioned support for ZPE propulsion research at a large, unnamed, American aerospace firm, supported by the U.S. Department of Defense. Systems based on ZPE usually refer to the Casimir Force, which is now accepted physics. Magnetic systems are not based upon the Casimir Force. Therefore, our engineers consider it more accurate to speak of converting Virtual Photon Flux. Magnetic conversion of ZPE is still not accepted science, although claims based on such magnetic systems, having no other reasonable explanation, are surfacing from a handful of companies worldwide. Most scientists consider it a career killer to publicly endorse such work, prior to the time when irrefutable proof that such energy conversion is possible is widely accepted.

Competition: A few other companies claiming to be developing self-sustaining magnetic generators, include Steorn in Ireland, Perendev Power in Germany and Lutec in Australia, the latter recently listing a Hong Kong address. Steorn published a full page ad in the Economist this past Fall. They admitted having discovered such devices by accident. All of these firms have stated they have no comprehensive theory explaining the source of the energy and describing in detail how it is converted. All are building devices with moving parts.

MPI’s Advantage: Our evolving theoretical model, continuously updated to reflect laboratory results, allows MPI to develop solid-state generators having no moving parts, as well as rotary machines.

The MPI Technical Team: Members of the team and consultants to MPI are spread around the world, with individuals residing in Mexico, the United Kingdom and Uruguay, in addition to six locales in the USA. Three of the members are degreed Electrical Engineers. Others include a patent research specialist with an almost photographic memory, a former adjunct professor of physics, a consulting physicist and four inventors active in the Company’s current development work.

What We Aim to Achieve: Early in 2007 units from both labs will be evaluated by one or more outside, independent laboratories, in order to confirm a Definitive Proof of Concept (POC). Two parallel programs are planned for initial commercial production. A self-sustaining battery replacement prototype, producing at least two watts, is the pre-commercial target, which will later have the capacity to power new lines of laptop computers. The mechanical laboratory is simultaneously developing a self-powered desktop Demonstration Device. This will light a few LEDs and power a small fan. A few large firms have signed NonDisclosure Agreements. Smaller firms have also expressed interest. A 1 kW solid-state Magnetic Power Module™, having a wide variety of potential applications, including linking a few together in order to power a home, will follow in due course. A pair of these might eventually enable removal of the plug from a plug-in hybrid car.
