No, I haven't got one, but while looking for something else, I came across something that puts an even bigger question mark over the thing. While researching a patent topic, I came across some information on perpetual motion machines, and one of the alleged makers thereof is - John Bedini. His website can be found at: [URL]http://www.icehouse.net/john34/[/URL] and good luck to you at comprehending it! The abstract of his US patent 6,392,370 reads: [i]This invention is a back EMF permanent electromagnetic motor generator and method using a regauging process for capturing available electromagnetic energy in the system. The device is comprised of a rotor with magnets of the same polarity; a timing wheel in apposition to a magnetic Hall Effect pickup switch semiconductor; and a stator comprised of two bars connected by a permanent magnet with magnetized pole pieces at one end of each bar. There are input and output coils created by wrapping each bar with a conducting material such as copper wire. Energy from the output coils is transferred to a recovery rectifier or diode. The magnets of the rotor, which is located on a shaft along with the timing wheel, are in apposition to the magnetized pole pieces of the two bars. The invention works through a process of regauging, that is, the flux fields created by the coils is collapsed because of a reversal of the magnetic field in the magnetized pole pieces thus allowing the capture of available back EMP energy. Additional available energy may be captured and used to re-energize the battery, and/or sent in another direction to be used as work. As an alternative, the available back EMF energy may be dissipated into the system. [/i] This is a highly camouflaged perpetual motion machine, and it has to be because the US Patent Office has long had a policy of refusing all such applications. So, what does this say about the veracity of the claims for the Bedini Clarifier?
