Something incredibly important...
Apr. 16th, 2004 04:00 am...how does an electric motor that uses a nearly-flat fifth of the power of a current-day electric motor with no loss of torque or horsepower sound, under the control of someone with a sense of old-fashioned, stereotyped Japanese family honour, instead of raw profit? Pretty damn good.
I think this is something you'd like,

I think it's something almost anyone would have a hard time understanding, unless you realize that the motors work so well because they're using the usually "thrown away" magnetic radiation of a motor as a way of helping power-assist the motor. Akin to how an LED produces light without wasting massive amounts of energy on heat, these motors do the same, focussing the power purely towards motive force.
So purely, in fact, they appear to be "over unity" until you look closer and understand how they harness the magnetic forces of permenant magnets instead of wasting them like oil in a total-loss oil engine, as most electric motors do with their magnetic fields.
