Mylow Magnetic Motor Hoax Revealed
Through good detective work by Touko Pouko, the Mylow Magnetic Motor that was receiving widespread attention has been proved a hoax. Mylow himself has admitted this (see last video posted here), coupled with a strange claim of having being coerced into faking his later demonstrations.
Here is Touko Pouko’s first video showing how Mylow faked his “magnetic motors.” (He suggests you use HQ and full screen if possible because some of the details are difficult to notice.)
Some of the still images available here:

You can spot the lines in some of the existing YouTube backups of Mylow’s videos if you watch them in HQ/full-screen.

Mylow Magnetic Motor Update
/Field Note
Update: This has now been proved to be a hoax. See “Mylow Magnetic Motor Hoax Revealed.”
Thanks to Alan Sterling’s updates and reporting on developments with the “Mylow” magnetic motor, a number of people have been working to replicate this. And while some have used the opportunity to raise even more skepticism, it turns out that building a motor that will work the way Mylow has reportedly demonstrated in his videos is a little more challenging that it first appears.
Background: An inventor from Chicago who goes by the pseudonym, “Mylow”, appears to have a knack for getting all-magnet motor designs to work that are based on the efforts of the late Howard Johnson. And he is intent on giving his design away to the planet in an open source manner.
On March 17, 2009, he posted his first video showing full rotation of the “Stonehenge model”, that Johnson worked on in the early 1980s to demonstrate to the U.S. Patent Office. (See earlier Mylow magnet motor report.) Mylow purposely kept his replication as close as possible to Johnson’s design — per the photos, not the patent. (more…)

Magnetic Motor Experiment
/Field Note
by Blake Harris
Over the last few weeks, Alan Sterling over at the PESWiki has been reporting on a new magnet motor experiment/demonstration. The inventor, who calls himself Mylow, originally loaded up a number of videos to YouTube detailing the construction of his motor which apparently was an effort to duplicate a magnetic motor originally built by Howard Johnson back in the 1970s. In 1979, Johnson managed to secure a US patent for a “Permanent Magnet Motor.”
Here’s a video of the working Mylow motor:

Perendev Magnetic Motor Claims
A magnetic motor (or magnet motor) is a device which converts power of or relating to or caused by magnetism (e.g., “magnetic forces”) into mechanical force and motion, with no other input. It usually provides rotary mechanical motion. The machines that utilizes the properties of a magnet for mechanical energy. (more…)
