Classic Pseudoscience - Generating More Energy Than You Put In...

[jimmydasaint]

The ORBO claims to give off more energy than it takes in to a 3:1 ratio, using energy from interacting magnetic fields. This, to my mind, is classical pseudoscience, yet the CEO seems to be deluded to the point of a contestant in "Britain's Got Talent" or the "X-Factor".

 

Orbo is a technology that creates energy from magnetic interactions. Orbo provides free, clean and constant energy at the point of use.

Orbo is a platform technology that can be engineered to power anything from a phone, to a fridge to a car.

 

Orbo technology is controversial - science tells us that energy can not be created - yet Orbo does this. Orbo is an over unity technology - it provides more energy out than is put in.

 

Orbo is a result of many man years of technological development using a "Victorian Science" approach. It is a technology that has been derived phenomologically, through test, implementation and retest.

A previous demonstration failed but the company continue to maintain that they have a clean energy source which can, one day, become a prime source for electrical cars etc... Your comments please...

I wonder if the Steorn offices and manufacturing facility are still hooked up to the electrical grid. I'll bet they are.

yeah, steorn have been claiming this for years and every time they go to reveal it something always coincidentally goes wrong.

 

its a scam, its been known to be a scam for years and it will remain, a scam.

They have to get rid of that excess power somewhere!

I've been curious enough about their claims to put myself on their mailing list.

 

So far a lot of noise, but no proven results.

Any company claiming what Steorn claims *should* be off the grid. For the same reasons a great tax accountant should never pay much in taxes.

If you burn the "literature" they send, that will be as close as you get to "free energy" from these people.

jokes on us, they have an antimatter black hole in their factory.
