Since the start of fossil fuel shortage, all kinds of renewable energy ideas plague the internet. Solar and wind energy technology are more developed now than other energy sources such as magnetism.

Solar and wind energy are more widespread now than before. We see seminars and courses on how to build wind turbines and manufacture and assemble solar panels. Production is still a bit expensive for both technology.

While we savor on these technology, magnets as one source of energy is the current fad for many would-be inventors as well as scammers. Overunity principle or perpetual motion machines are still in its infancy. Although there are many skeptics who believes that there is no such thing as perpetual energy, many do not discount that magnets could be the solution to perfecting over-unity machines. Skeptics argue that one cannot defy the 2nd law of thermodynamics, i.e. simply, that energy is dissipated by heat and thus cannot regenerate on its own.

"The second law of thermodynamics is an expression of the tendency that over time, differences in temperature, pressure, and chemical potential equilibrate in an isolated physical system. From the state of thermodynamic equilibrium, the law deduced the principle of the increase of entropy and explains the phenomenon of irreversibility in nature. The second law declares the impossibility of machines that generate usable energy from the abundant internal energy of nature by processes called perpetual motion of the second kind." ~wikipedia.org

I are not here to argue about the 2nd law of thermodynamics. I believe that because of the properties of magnets and with probably some modifications, magnetic motors are very probable. I'd like to see a really working prototype. But I see are advertisements on buying the blue print on how to make magnetic motors.

And just like anything else: whenever there is a need for one, there is market, and sad to say, scammers abound.

In this world of internet, it is best to search and find out what is the update on a certain idea. Well, I did search the internet and I found an abundance of blogs, reports and articles about magnetic motors. YouTube is replete of videos about this sort of "invention". Just read the comments.

Also, search Google and enter keywords "magnetic motor scams"; you'll be surprised what your search spits out.

There is nothing wrong with thinking and hoping for the best to happen; just be careful when scammers take you for a ride.
