Khabe,

I'm very busy working on the updated prototype video and dealing with many emails and people who want to come and document the machine.  Checking today through this website and reading your messages actually makes me laugh.  Reading through your figures of what you have tells me that you really don't know what you are talking about.  Have you ever even done anything at all with your hands or are you basically a book learner?  Not wasting any more of my time on this website - I have so many websites to look through.  It seems to me that you don't understand something that is so hard to believe.  So go back and read your books!  If you want to email me personally, I can spend some time with you if you would like to learn something and good night.

Right on James,

Keep working at your dream.  Do your thing......Just let me know when you make your next video.........

So few do anything but so many can type vitriol and total BS, I wonder what they crawl under at night to sleep......There almost seems to be a mob syndrome here on these list.....ATACKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK.  The cynicism is so deep, the attention span so short and the desire is so strong to "Prove" something!  The willingness to BUILD anything is almost zero as that would require real work and dedication for the pack.  What are we as a group of inquisitive inventors coming too?...........it makes you want to barf.

Respectfully

Ben

Is there no other place for the frustrated kxxx people to hang out ?

The world would be a better place if people like you would transform their
energy into more positive or useful things.
It?s a shame, intelligent grown-ups spend their time (instead of watching tv)
on the computer blaming, bubbling this and that.
And if thats the only gain to satisfaction - than thats very sad.
There are some quite nice online games available (this is no online game per se).
And its easier there to get the credits.
play somewhere else. build something interesting, discuss something interesting
or just dont write something if there is nothing to say.

And if a thread is running idle, just post some shit.

Believe it or not, I've been very busy.  Today was the first day that I tested the machine since we have made changes.  I have added more paddles to the wheel and I put the machine up on caster wheels.  I put it in the front of the garage and did a test run.  I just emailed my partner - the problem that I am having is that I am only getting about (300watts) and I can not change over to generator power at that time.  I don't know what I have done wrong, besides adding triple the paddles.  I was looking forward to making the new video today.  I'm waiting for my partner to get back to me and for him to get over here - it could be something that is very simple.  Just wanted to give you an update and we'll be getting to you all soon

Changing the number of paddles will give different performance.
Why do you make this change ?

All part of testing James.

Hope you get it sorted and look forward to the new videos.

Was it sat on the Ground before adding new castors out of interest?

Cheers

The maximum (theoretical) rpm of the paddle wheel is
determined by the waterspeed.
If you add more paddles - you increase the time when
the waterstream is in between paddles - which shortens
the time where the stream can accelerate a paddle.
You get less speed and less power.
Increasing the number of paddles would only make sense
if the wheel would be completly streamed within water
like a river boat wheel.
By having 2 streams, 2 pumps and pairs of paddles,
you could double the torque - but that would change
or proof nothing. If it doesnt work in a single setup -
it doesnt work in a double/pair setup.
Take the input of some people here what concerns the
waterwheel not too serious - the thing was very nice and
working at all ;-)))))

If you would play around with the performance - higher
water speed  (as long as the pump stays efficient)
and _LESS_ padles of bigger size would make sense.

rgds.

Adding more paddles should increase the performance, not decrease it.  But then I could be wrong.  My partner and his friend are coming over at 5:30 EDT to check it out.  I'm going back to work on it until they get here.  I added the extra paddle wheels before I put it up on the caster wheels.  I will get back later today or tomorrow - my partner and I think it is something simple.

Thank you for your comments in your last message.  Yes, you are correct. I'll talk to you later or tomorrow.

Hi, JDHardy,
Yes, your original paddle wheel was the weakest link in the setup. (I commented it was like 10-15% efficient...)
No need to invent a hot water again, there is already a lot  of work available on different types of turbines. Just pick one. More paddles, better...

So, your current problem is that you're getting "only 300W" out of the setup (after the turbine improvements..)? Sorry, with what input?

Can you answer at least some of our questions, like:
- provide at least a basic schematic (el. connections) with the data
- pump AND generator details (I constantly hear about CalTech T10000 pump, is this true?)
- measurements ( & procedures) made so far (flow rate, electric, t/V...)
- self-sustaining ability (this should be possible according to the claims)

I'm looking forward to your (promissed!) new video.
Cheers!
