Another non-boring day in the Mylow magnet motor saga, as it becomes more real, and the new world it paints begins to come more sharply into focus. What role will you play?

[Written May 4]
As has been the case so much in the last 1.5 months, I've been busy all day keeping on top of the Mylow magnet motor situation.
As I write this, Mylow and PMMTester are in Mylow's car driving to visit the burial plot of Howard Johnson. Mylow wishes to pay his regards to Johnson for inspiring him for all these years and especially in the last few months. This is also a good way for him to get a break from all the pressure he's been under since he posted a video on March 17 showing an all-magnet motor starting, accelerating, then reaching an equilibrium speed.
In a world where such things have been taught to be "impossible", he has received a barrage of negative criticism, some of which has been very crude. He's also received visits, threats, and has had eerie encounters with MIB elements. All these things have been wearing down on him, making him want to give up. He thought the world would gladly welcome what he had offered freely to help humankind, with no thought for monetary gain or fame. But instead of being a good experience, the saga has been more like a nightmare for him.
Nearly every time Mylow has posted a video in the past month, he has sworn that "this will be my last video," because that is how he feels. Then a few days later, or even a few hours later sometimes, he posts yet another video. Today, he told me that every time he feels like stopping, Howard Johnson keeps spurring him on, and that is the thing that keeps him going when he wants to give up because of all the negativism and MIB threats he's received over this.
"I'm not going to stop."
Gratefully, the MIB component seems to have pretty much gone away. Now it's just the perpetual skeptics that get to him.
Mylow said that he's proceeding in this in defiance of the advice of family, friends, and his lawyer, not just the earlier MIB threats. He feels as if he has a spiritual calling to do this. "It's as if all those great inventors from the past are telling me to go for this thing."
When he gets back to Chicago, Mylow intends to show his motor on national television. I plan to join them at that point. Maybe someone in the open source community will have achieved a replication by then. Maybe several.
More Videos
Mylow posted two more videos yesterday, after I posted my last story about this saga at PESN.
The first was another video showing his motor running on a glass table. This time he showed inside the base of the bearing assembly, and showed under the table, to further dispel the skeptics insistence that there must be a hidden motor or wires somewhere. He also purposely gets his face in the camera, crouched behind the motor, and animatedly addresses the skeptical in the audience. His wife walks in while he's filming, and vouches for the motor as well. It is probably the most convincing video yet.
The second video shows him actually struggling to get the motor to spin. Instead of proceeding as it moves past one rotor magnet set to the next, it cogs and bounces to a stop at the next magnet set. He went ahead and posted it, to illustrate that this isn't easy, even for him.
He told me today that it is "very crucial to get magnetic focusing," and that Howard Johnson spoke a lot about this.
Building Owner Sees Motor
Mylow said that the owner of his building came by to collect rent. Mylow and his wife were in another room. They heard the lady ask, "What is this thing?" It wasn't turning when she went into the room where it was, but she turned it with her hand and it continued turning, picking up speed.
Mylow said she turned pale. He also got on her case for touching his piece of equipment.
When he explained what it was, she said when she was in the Philippines years ago, she knew of a guy who had something like this, and he was killed.
Took it to Work
Mylow said he took his motor with him to work to show his boss/partner. The partner asked, "Can I put it on the compressor on the roof? We're spending $10,000 for electricity to run that thing."
Mylow's Twin Brother Vouches
I was able to talk to Mylow's twin brother by phone today. He described himself as having been "the biggest skeptic" when it comes to this kind of claim. But when he went to Mylow's place the other day when he was doing his demonstrations of the motor on a glass table top, he said he "was sitting there in amazement." He noted that the stator magnet is situated "right smack in the middle of the rotor magnets" (on a plane over them). He felt the stator magnets, and said there were "extremely cold." He used the tachometer that PMMTester sent Mylow, and said that by seven minutes, the motor finished accelerating and maintained an equilibrium speed.
"Something is going on that is way beyond normal science," he said, having had his college training and professional career in mainstream science.
He also said that he personally had a dubious government entity incident. He said a couple of people came by his place of employment asking for him in regards to the work being done by Mylow. He told them (or had an intermediary tell them), "That's my brother's business, talk to him about it."
He said he is saddened by all the ridicule that Mylow is receiving. "He's definitely opened Pandora's box."
More on MIB
Mylow said when he was in the BlackOps facility building the two devices for them, that he was under pressure to do it. "They had guys in there with guns, security guards." They called the one they were most interested in because it could turn a generator, HJA1.
Regarding their telling him that his motor could bring about economic destruction, he said that "the economic destruction began long before this motor came along." If anything, this motor could introduce an entire new industry -- one which would move people away from dependence on a central authority, and empower a distributed energy paradigm, both literally and symbolically. So yes, it threatens the status quo powers who have been rampaging our world for too long.
I was telling Mylow about another magnet motor claim in which an antigravity component seemed inextricably tied to the function of the motor, and it nearly went through the lab roof once. (BTW, I typically encounter around one new claim per month, but have been getting more frequent lately, like every 2-4 days). Mylow mentioned one he heard of by Howard Manger (sp?). It was a small magnetic device composed of three overlapping spheres, which he said was conveyed by extraterrestrials. It lifted off during one demonstration and was never seen again. In a later phone call (we had about six today), he mentioned that the BlackOps had shown him something they had which was nearly identical to what he's seen on the Internet about Howard Manger.
Interest from All Over
As added witness of each new video accumulates, as well as the increasing skeptic-proofing the Mylow is able to integrate into his shooting of the videos, the more people are taking this serious, and sending serious inquiries to know more, or to work together in some capacity.
Mylow said he's been getting inquiries from Universities, from Sandia Labs. He's had business inquiries from Germany, Holland, and Australia.
"I wish people would stop making offers of money. I'm not in this for any monetary gain. I'm in this purely for humanitarian reasons."
"I'm not patenting anything. This is a gift from God."
We at PES Network, Inc. are helping Mylow open source this technology via the official website (thus designated with his permission), http://MylowMagnetMotor.com which is housed at PESWiki.com. Anyone is free to pursue whatever commercial venture they wish with this technology. We only ask as a matter of courtesy that you provide at least a 3% royalty, which will be split three ways evenly: to Howard Johnson's heirs, to Mylow, and to PES Network, Inc. for administering and promulgating this project and like projects. This is not per Mylow's instigation, and whenever I bring it up, he seems uncomfortable, as if I'm speaking in another language. He really has no monetary interest in this whatsoever.
Plans for the motor assembly are available from http://MylowPlans.com which now include version 2.0, which is this most recent design using bar magnets on the rotor.
You can also make a donation if you wish to help that way.
More Information on the Motor
Mylow said that he doesn't think the magnets are demagnetizing now like they were before in his other arrangement. "It's not losing any speed."
He said that when he put the stator magnets he got from the electromagnetic motor on the remagnetizer to change the polarity, he left it there for two days.
While he was on the phone with me, Mylow pulled out his ruler and gave me the following measurements. Remember, Mylow is not a scientist, so there is the possibility that one or more of the measurements will not be correct.
He said the distance from the bottom of the stator to the top of the rotor magnets to be 1-1/8 inches. And the gap (horizontal parallel to the stator support bar) between the two stator magnets is 5/16 inches. He confirmed that the bar magnets in the rotor are 1/2 x 1/2 x 2 inches. He also gave me the dimensions of the stator magnets.
Finally, he measured the inner then outer distances between the rotor magnets. Inner gap: 5/16, 5/16, 4/16. Outer gap: 9/16, 8/16, 9/16, 9/16, 17/32, 8/16, 10/6. He emphasized again that these are not uniform gaps. He laid down a uniform system one time, and it did not work. Non-uniformity seems to be an important component to these things working.
He is quite sure that both the rotor and stator magnets he's using in this motor are ceramic magnets.
Before he left to go pick up PMMTester from the airport, he took a few photos of the magnet motor and its components and sent them to me, which I made available for download.
Giving Mylow a Break
So Mylow is going to be away for a few days, taking a break from all this public interface via the web. He's on a spiritual quest of sorts, to pay his respects to Howard Johnson and maybe meet a few of his family and associates in the area. He's not taking the motor with him. He'll get back to that when he and PMMTester return.
To those of you who have been following this saga, I would ask of you to look inside your soul and ponder if you might have a destiny to fulfill in helping carry this work forward. I don't think there could be too many people wanting to help. It's just a matter of people taking on tasks and initiative, and becoming leaders to carry forth their vision of how to fulfill their own personal destiny in this quest to turn the planet from the course of destruction that they've been on, to one of redemption and sustainability and abundance.
We don't have to fulfill the worst case scenario probable futures that some have envisioned for this planet. There are many gradations in-between. The more we rally to the highest that is within us, the better our lot will be, and the less painful will be the transition from the control-based world we've been in, to the freedom and responsibility-based world of enlightened, empowered individuals we're headed to.
The "kill shot" from the Sun (earth burned by fire) scheduled for Dec. 2012 (or whatever massive calamity is pending) to wipe out most of the parasitic human inhabitants doesn't have to happen, or at least not as severly, if Mother Earth is satisfied that we've changed sufficiently. Whatever your religious vernacular may be, I'm sure you won't find it hard to find parallels to your own world view in what I'm saying here. This and other breakthrough technologies that can be unleashed by this logjam-breaker development being instigated by Mylow, can emerge to the blessing and saving of mankind, if our hearts are right.
Let us choose wisely. Not only are our grandchildren depending on us, but the intelligent beings, angels, and Gods throughout the universe are watching with great anticipation, rooting for our success, and hoping for our triumph.
The coming millennium of peace and sustainable prosperity will not be something thrust upon us, it will be something we've collectively chosen, while the old, worn out models of the past fade away.

Hy.. I live in small Luxembourg, Europe. I'26 years old and following the alternative energy scene for about 6 years now. I do believe in the magnetic force fields, I believe they were known by other people during other times... My feeling about Milow tells me that not only it's possible, but I am confidend, I believe in this guy. I m happy that there are other people out there believing in a alternative, better reality. I share quite similar point of views than A.Sterling. I don't know exactly where my mission could be, but I feel that I could do play a part in this someday. Thanks people, keep it going, thanks Milow... I know how alone one can feel in a very conservative environment. This is important and inspiring, let's never give up hope, never stop thinking, never sell our souls.
Marcus T
Sterling, you must replicate it!. Replication will be the real clue.
Go ahead friends, you must raise the curtain of technologies just supressed for greedy reasons!
Thanks Millow for your patience and effort, we will follow you.
Julio S., from Spain
Hi there, I've been following the new energy scene for quite some time now. I'm a master's degree student industrial engineering electronics/ict, expecting to graduate in july. I live in Belgium, Europe. If you think there's any way I can help, just send me an email. Managing some administration tasks or doing something practical with science, it doesn't matter to me. Just saying. Let's get it going.
Kind regards, Tom from Belgium
Hi there. I'm a fan of PESN and followed the Millow's saga with his motor. As more videos are posted, i true belive Mylow as something going on.
As a civil engineer devoted to energetic certification of buildings, i see great potential for this in my area.
I just want to congratulate Sterling for his efforts and, of course, Mylow to sail against the current. You deserve all the credit and support and i hope your technology will be replicated very soon. You are inspiring to me and a lot of people. Don't give up.
T. Santos, from Portugal.
I have no doubt that the motor works and that Mylov has found a convenient if somewhat crude method of converting magnetic potential energy into kinetic energy, but why is there such a fuss over this: this is not contravening any laws of thermodynamics - how do you think those magnets are made in the first place? The clue is that it requires a LOT of energy to create a magnetic field.
Mylov is simply using the magnet as an inefficient battery - converting the massive energy that was required to line up the magnetic dipoles of atoms (against entropy, which always wins eventually) into rotating a small aluminium disc. This is not a "zero sum gain" if it requires more energy to make the parts than it produces. Also, attaching a load (i.e. to enable power generation) to the disc would likely kill the rotation, so practical generation is not possible.
I realise that a sensible scientific rejection of the quasi-religious aura attached to this "revolution" is unlikely to be published, but feel that all followers of this site should realise that there are real, ground-breaking solutions being made in wind/wave/solar technologies which take advantage of the abundance of energy all around us, and only supporting those real technologies will get us to the promised land of truly "free" energy...
@David - there were already a lot of comments about magnets behaving like a limited storage of energy, but even if that would be the case, conventional science still doesn't recognize that continuous motion via magnets alone is possible. Just google "Discussion of The Classic Magnetic Motor".
Even if your magnet-battery concept turns out to be true, people would recognize that our current scientific concepts are not correct even in such basic phenomena like magnetism, which would be very healthy for further advancement of science. People would say to skeptics afterward - "Yeah, so you claimed also that magnets cannot turn the wheel all by themselves, and you were wrong..."
The main thing in this article which makes sense is the suggestion that Sandia National Laboratory may be interested in testing Mylow's device. If you want credibility, you should contact those people as soon as possible and get the motor tested! THAT will give you credibility RIGHT AWAY.
I don't understand taking time away from verification and replication to make a visit to Johnson's grave. That makes NO sense. Why take the time? When the crying need is for a PUBLIC demonstration including taking tools to the motor afterwards.
It seems as if Sterling and his friends don't really understand how to achieve credibility. I hope they figure that out soon. For everybody's sake including Mother Earth's.
If you look at Howard Johnson's original patent's figures, the spaces between the magnets are asymmetrical, just like Mylow discovered or rediscovered. Howard Johnson did not mention the need for asymmetry in his patent if for no other reason then he wasn't required to do so. The goal of patents is to make them as general as possible, and if the patent office didn't notice or demand the asymmetry claim, then Howard Johnson was not going to narrow his patent by including it. Not that his patent ended up doing him any good while he was living.
Speaking of patents, this is the perfect situation in that the original patent works, but it is expired so anyone can use it. This stops the black-ops or powers that be from being able to buy it out or keep it off the market.
The latest news that universities and labs want to get involved with Mylow is exciting, provided their motives are genuinely supportive. Be careful they don't waste your time or worse Mylow.
Another video and he's taking the device apart and putting it in a closet. I really hate being the doubting Thomas here but, what's up? Here a guy travels to his town and winds up on a trip to visit a grave without seeing the device. We have first hand testimony from his brother and second hand from his landlord. Sure the videos are compelling, but what about the various attempts to recreate it? Nothing works differently from the hundreds of other magnetic motor attempts.
Something is very weird here. If it was me, I'd have the thing on the sidewalk in the center of town showing it off. I'd set up a bed in the same room and let Sterling sleep over for a week if he wanted to. I'd call the cops and have the MIB ejected for criminal trespass. I'd call the papers and invite them over for chips.
For crying out loud, is paranoia a prerequisite for inventors? Are they all scared of their own shadow to the point of hiding what could be the future? Mylow may be thin skinned, but this is bordering on schizophrenia.
Sterling get someone to replicate this. it cant be that hard to make this...akira in tokyo
@David
While it does take energy to set up the magnetic field, the suggestion that Mylow's device is simply acting as a crude battery with the energy stored in the magnetism slowly draining as the wheel turns, keep in mind that the device is said to be functioning as an interface to the energy source - not acting as the energy source.
Just as a windmill takes energy to manufacture, the windmill interfaces with the wind to channel the energy from the invisible wind. The windmill itself is not the source of the energy - just an interface to harness it. I'm sure the windmill harnesses far more energy than it took to manufacture the windmill.
Mylow's device appears to be channeling the magnetic wind as the cold temperature of the stator magnet is suggesting.
As far as the whole hypersensitivity issue with Mylow is concerned, I take the approach that if coddling him is what it takes to move this forward to validation, then coddle coddle coddle. Why provide Mylow with more reasons to stall and act offended? Coddle coddle coddle.
Fingers crossed.
Hi, I´m very interested in this. But one odd thing is this. In the article they tell us we could get the plans from them ro build this thing. They tell us how uncomfortable Milow is about the money-thing of all this and that thes great technology should be available to everyone solving a lot of our problems. But what do you see if you follow the link to the plans? You will find out that there is a price of 25$ for the plans. So what´s that? They try to make money with it -nothing else. Don´t get me wrong. i´m totaly with Milow. but the other guys semm to just want to make money with this. Perhaps Milow doesn´t even know about this...... That´s a shame.
@ Marcho and Thomas Paine
Thanks for your comments - dealing with each in turn:
I recognise that there is not a practical design for a "pure" magnetic motor (though all electice motors operate on the principle of magnetism, of course) currently available, and it would be marvellous for Mylow if he has designed one, but even if he makes it practical we are not talking about changing the laws of science here: we recognise that magnetism can create a force between objects, either rotational (e.g. a compass) or linear (e.g. a handbag clasp); this is merely making a design which takes advantage of this force and channels it to create useful work. Mylow admitted that the magnets go "flat" after a while - that is because they have done work, and the equal and opposite reaction of the disc spinning is the atoms in the metallic lattice re-ordering into a random orientation.
Regarding the windmill idea - what evidence is there that there is any other energy source is present? The amount of energy taken to spin the disc is not great, and it does not last very long - plus the magnets go flat. Occam's razor suggests that the simplest explanation is the correct one. Regarding the "coldness" of the magnets - I'm glad you mentioned that - I assume that you have ever picked up a room-temperature metal bar and felt its "coldness" in your hand? That is not cold: that is conduction, taking the heat away from your skin. I suggest that is what was felt: do we have any scientific evidence that the magnets are colder than room temperature?
I don't want to sound like I am putting this invention down for no reason, but some of the hyperbole I have seen around this is ridiculous, and I fear that emphasis on this will cause normal people reading about the alternative/green energy sector to combine this and other more promising technologies into a box labelled "cranks/crackpot ideas"
