This is in the same area as the numpties that think they can run a car on
water by splitting it into hydrogen and burning it by using the "spare"
power in the alternator. You can even see videos of them doing it (but
none
without the batteries being connected).


You can see us doing this without batteries attached. Moreover, we've
posted detailed build videos on YouTube so you can build your own
working model for about $40 and prove it to yourself. Do the
perpetual motion nuts do that?

How do you think we managed to fool the aero departments at Stanford
and SJSU? How did we manage to fool the official observers from the
North American Land Sailing Association?

Perhaps it's time you consider that you simply have to try harder to
understand what's being claimed and how it works. There's no magic
(and no free energy) here.


Have you seen the cr@p in this video?

The statement that a cart on a treadmill in still air is the same as a
moving cart on road in the wind is just wrong.
Any fool can take energy from an electrically powered conveyor belt to move
the opposite way it just depends on friction. The energy comes from the
electric motor.

The claim is you can take energy from the apparent wind and accelerate the
cart into the apparent wind.
If you can do this then you should be able to go out on a still day, push
the cart to create an apparent wind and then go from that. If you do that
then that would be pretty difficult to deny. I won't hold my breath.
