Perpetual motion? I dont believe it

Boobook,
you talkin about that little culvert that sits over that bore drain.

Can I get one in Red? Seriously, the same colour as a little red compressor

only Al cause there has to be something to it, I understand the intricacies of transmitting power and heat and energy, maybe it works like a heat pump or something

That is EMF braking, where the momentum of the car is used to generate power as the car slows down instead of the energy being lost in heat in brake pads.

There is no external energy being added to the system above.

yep Rob thats re-generative braking, and its quite inefficient, it makes just enough power to run the screen telling you that the power is running into the battery... just

thats what I said to the guy Derek, why cant you just connect the generating cables to the clamps for the power cables for the compressor and then when its running, disconnect the compressor clamps and keep it running on the generated power. Seems logical to me

Gee is it April all ready I must have over slept.

...its early this year...:)

well I was informed that the battery is required to run the compressor and to provide the initial power to overcome the compressor/generator inertia

Please post a link so we can do a group buy and sell the power back to the grid.

Do they supply shades so the neighbours arent kept awake at night with the million super efficient LEDs shing in their bedroom windows..

Graham,

I made some enquiries about a group buy.

Too late I am afraid. You gotta be quick on these things. The manufacturer just told me that they are not in a position to accept new orders for a while.

They just received a $2.4 Billion order from a Mr P Garrett of Canberra and their production line is full.

Base load Solar generation is the new thing.

Must be back dated then as Mr P Garret was removed from that portfolio some time ago and has now been given the chance to stuff up schools or something hasnt he.

I think that this what the system uses

Regenerative power unit

A regenerative power unit feeds back the regenerative energy of a drive into the supply system.(battery )

The released energy is not dissipated but fed back into the supply system, which saves energy.
This is especially suitable for this application.


The Gloss Over........

Increased motor efficiency
Increased inverter efficiency
Energy-efficient design of options/functions
Use of released, regenerative energy
Direct use of energy in other areas
Regeneration of energy
Energy storage

This unit will be on the market very soon.

Watch out for it at your local Bunnings Store.




Conclusion:
When using a regenerative power unit, the regenerative energy of a drive can be used by other consumers, which saves ener
