Which political party do you represent, Johan?
They must be quite happy with you. Never at a loss for words, apparently.
You're a good sport.I'll take that as a compliment
I'll try to keep quiet now and wait for the original poster to update us on his progress.
I there's the toe-in problem I keep hearing our TMC folk talk about. I'm sure that makes the shoes wear out faster.
Good catch. At a first glance one might think I mistook "brake" with "break". However, in line with the original premise of this thread, I'm talking about the mythical bathroom brakes by which the old ladies are able to create regenerative braking energy to power the alternators without slowing themselves or the car down, thereby creating energy from thin air. I can't tell you more since I'm thinking of patenting the concept.
Especially inside sole wear due to bow-leggedness.

You need to harness the hydro power of the bathroom breaks too.
Any competent electrical engineer will tell you the same @#$! thing we've been trying to get thru to you re: the laws of physics, law of conversation of energy and that there's no perpetual motion machine.Of course for starters I am going to need an electrical engineer for advice.

See my response earlier in the thread + that of many others.
Nope, those ideas were not "inconceivable", they were simply not possible with the existing technology. But given the theoretical challenge any competent electronics expert could have "conceived" the idea and listed the limitations of technology and hurdles that needed to be overcome. We can "conceive" of light sabers and hyperspace travel and can list the physical and technological limits preventing them. But, perpetual motion isn't "inconceivable", it is impossible and defies the laws of physics..it's not a technologic issue, it is a physical impossibility.In the 1070s a man on television would say beam me up mr. scott or mr. spock. I thought how cool would that be if you could talk to someone in another part of the world or out of it without a telephone wire. Taking a picture without film was inconceivable. How can you take pictures without film. However, in the 1990s I went to a computer trade show at the Javitt center and these two guy were displaying a card the size and shape of a credit card. I asked, what is it ? they said we call it flash memory. This card can hold 10 megabytes, and we're working on one that will hold 100 megabytes. I said that's fantastic. You can use one at 100 megabytes as ram memory, and then stack ten others together, instead of a hard drive and you would have a hell of a computer. At the time my very expensive hp computer had a wapping hard drive of 135 megabytes and 10 megs of ram. This was pretty good for a personal computer. years later someone came up with an Ipad that does what I suggested. I didn't have the technical skill to make an Ipad but I could see that with the flash memory that this could be done. I never said anything about perpetual motion. The only perpetual motion I know pf is this planet and other that keep going round and round in what seems for ever. Someone once said anything is easy once someone show you how. I don't understand why some here keep trying to knock down what I am doing without even knowing the how if it. I not asking the wrong questions you are, you just don't know it. My question is simple but it appears I'm asking it in the wrong place.

In fact you got your answer in the post immidiately following your initial question....My question is simple but it appears I'm asking it in the wrong place...
Well, assuming you mean 12V automotive alternators, they will be able to put out about 2500 watts each (160A*15.6V) so for a decent charge rate of 10 kW you would need four. But then you need an inverter to convert 12V DC to 240V AC at 40 amps.
(a) and (b) seem incompatible. Which is it?(a) If I fail in my endeavor you will never know it. If I succeed however, you will not stop talking about it. I don't believe that I will fail. By the way the ladies don't get a bathroom break, they have to go on the go. There is no stopping on this road trip until we get to where we're going. (b) I promise that I will keep you posted as I make progress.

I hope (b).
The OP already answered this question:
The physics works just fine once you include the little old ladies.
good to see you guys have a sense of humor. I thought you would get a kick out of the old ladies thing. If I fail in my endeavor you will never know it. If I succeed however, you will not stop talking about it. I don't believe that I will fail. By the way the ladies don't get a bathroom break, they have to go on the go.

No thanks. Really, don't thank me for stating the obvious. Success with your endeavor, please keep us posted.Hi PaulusdB, yours has been the most sensible and realistic statement I have heard so far. Thank you.

The planets aren't in perpetual motion.
After a long time, they will drift further apart, the gravitational influence being reduced further each day. Like clockwork, it will eventually stop. And, like clockwork, it had a starting point, about 4.5 billion years ago.
The only true system that is believed unity (not even over-unity, the alternative name for perpetual motion) is the entire universe, as energy is constantly exchanged between forms, but it's never created or destroyed.
The thing is, one of the things science does is make assumptions. Things like, there losses in systems, energy must be conserved, etc. Engineers can then take these assumptions, which have been reasonably shown to be true, and make stuff with them. Things like cars, bicycles, and other machines.
If you go out somewhere and claim that something so fundamental as conservation of momentum is incorrect, or can be violated in certain circumstances, then you HAVE to supply evidence for why you think this is the case. You can demonstrate this with a machine. However, you should ask why no one else for over 400 years would have noticed your idea. Unless it revolves around some esoteric usage of physics, your idea has probably been tried, found not to work and put to rest.
