Encyclopedia of free energy devices
Free energy or a device that is more than 100% effecient is the holy grail of all power generation. The current laws of physics say such devices are impossible due to the losses to friction, etc. of any system, esp. mechanical. But inventors keep trying. Mostly in the snake oil category. There is also a big industry debunking these ideas. With over $100 oil some of these are being looked at again. I found a very good summary and analysis of most of the major "free energy" inventions in the last two centuries here. Good reading. The last couple pages are a diatribe from the conspiracy guys laying out a litnay of accusations of government cover up and supression by "big money". I don't buy any of that shit. The current capitalist system of venture capitalist would fund any of these things if they worked. I hope some of them do.
