I saw a clip in a doco awhile ago about some Nasa dude, he forced two strong magnets together, bound them in something heavy and had another object of equal weight without magnets in it. He dropped both from a height and the one with magnets fell slower than the other object, would be neat to try out, but for the life of me I can't remember the details. Also want to try out that floating coil thing as well. Cheers, Rand Hi SethEden, I’m still thinking about making one, but I want to buy some of those Neodymium magnets.

Without a mechanical load it has been claimed to run for about 8 hours before needing another spin to get it going again. It is apparently incredibly sensitive to synch. At present this isn't much more then a toy. Although I'm considering to build something similar myself.
