Revealing what I know about building the Perendev magnet motor

Having honored the NDA long after the term expired, given new unsettling developments I now reveal blueprints, photos, and other insider information in hopes that it might help the many people out there trying to replicate Michael Brady's all-magnet motor.

My Experiences with Mike Brady

Back in May of 2002, when I first began posting material online about free energy, one of the first emails I received was from Michael J. Brady, then in Johannesburg, telling me about his all-magnet motor.  I struck up a friendship and business relationship with him that lasted off and on since then, starting out very serious.

He was going to fly to the U.S. to demonstrate his motor across the country, and I was helping to both schedule those appearances and establish various business connections to launch the technology into the marketplace.  At least three different times he had plane tickets then had to cancel, the last time being because the magnets were degaussing due to the aluminum material in the rotor and stator creating eddy currents.  So he changed out the material to polypropylene (plastic), keeping the same aluminum frame.

In December of 2002, a couple of associates and I traveled to Johannesburg to see his motor, but we couldn't get it operational in the week we were there.  Two months later, on Feb. 21, 2003, he sent us a video showing the unit rotating.  It wasn't skeptic proof inasmuch as he doesn't do his walk-around during acceleration, but it does have attributes of legitimacy, such as the rocking motion during start-up and stopping as the magnets cog.  I've always maintained that I believe that the video was genuine, though I certainly understand why some would be skeptical about the possibility of a cheater device behind the motor during acceleration.

We were poised to handle manufacturing and sales in the U.S., but his high price tag and lack of producing evidence of operation and patent information chilled our negotiations, though I did come back to the negotiations-discussion table with him a few times thereafter.  We purchased http://Perendev.com, which we still own, forwarding to our coverage at PESWiki.com  We even tried to do a 1/4-scale replication of the motor, with his permission, based on his blueprints, but couldn't get it to run.

On June 29, 2004, he gave me permission to post that video, which has now been seen by millions around the planet.  The one I uploaded to YouTube is the most-watched video of the 128 videos I've posted at PESNetwork so far.

Since that time, the Perendev motor has become perhaps the best-known magnet motor technology, though thousands of people are chasing the objective of getting a working magnet motor to market.

In 2005, Brady  moved to Germany and shifted his focus from the magnet motor to an electromagnetic version he allegedly came up with, announcing in Feb. of 2006 that a 300 kW electromagnetic motor was available for sale.

On Feb. 17, 2007, in a one-hour interview with him on our Free Energy Now radio show, he said that he had been in production since July  of 2006, and that they were manufacturing around 20 to 30 units per month.  He also said he would open source the magnet motor technology that gave rise to the electromagnetic variation.  That never happened.  Nor were we able to find anyone who had received a manufactured unit.  Brady didn't even have a photo on his hard drive that he could send us when we asked for one. 

He took a lot of people's money (half down for purchase), but I don't know of anyone who actually received a unit.

Why I'm Telling All, After All These Years

Now, in July of 2010, given that

1. Brady has been arrested for embezzling at least 60 German customers (not to mention the many other paying customers from other countries); while Brady was living the posh life in Switzerland;
2. Perendev, the company, has closed its doors;
3. The design was most likely pirated from a Brazilian patent from 1989, now expired; 
4. The NDA I signed has long expired;
5. I keep getting inquiries about details on the motor;

I have therefore decided to go ahead and publish as much key information as I have about the motor that might not already be available from other sources.  The third point above is the primary reason that I no longer feel the need to keep a lid on what I know.

I don't think replicating it exactly as I describe will result in a working unit, but there may be some info that may help those of you who are giving it a try no matter what.

I know of at least one person (not yet verified, but circumstantial evidence is strong) who has been able to replicate a variation of the Perendev motor and has been powering a modern house with it for nearly 9 months now with no problems.

Table of Contents

In adjoining pages, you will find:

• Introduction
• Blueprints that Brady conveyed, along with some notes I took about them in our phone conversations.
• PHOTOS we took while in Johannesburg, showing the motor from various angles and in process of being assembled.
  • Assembly
  • Around Johannesburg - including the machine shop we went to to pick up the newly fabricated motor components (rotors and stators); neighbor Nielson Mandella's home; opulence/poverty contrast; street vendors
  • Brady's House - including a shot of the kitchen table I was sitting at when a witness confirmed he had seen the motor running
  • History Snapshots - of various iterations also tried and claimed to work
  • Aluminum Version (pre-dated the polypropylene version seen in the video)
• Plans for the 1/4-scale version by Doug Furr
• Pre-Perendev Patent (Expired) - most likely pirated by Brady, with no credit
• Witnesses - three people who said they saw it running

Be sure to also visit our pages at PESWiki.com where I've compiled quite a bit of information over the years.  They are listed in the "See also" section below.

I'd love to see this technology validated and introduced to the public for practical use.  I wouldn't mind being part of that endeavor, but nor would I mind if someone did it without me.  I primarily want to see it make a difference on the planet.  I hope this info helps.
