Searl Effect Generator

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Searl Effect Generator is a claimed magnetic overunity device, invented by John Roy Robert Searl, in approximately 1946. While the concept remains essentially the same since that time, the means of alleged manufacture has changed radically since then.

[edit] Beginnings

As a child, John Searl claims to have received a series of dreams which revealed geometric patterns and numbers to him. Unsure what to make of these, he struggled with the dreams until (and in a manner as yet unknown) he felt a desire to construct a machine based upon the dreams.


[edit] The Device

The SEG (Searl Effect Generator) resembles a large ring with eight smaller cylinders attached to the outside edge. The ring is composed of concentric layers of Neodymium (innermost), Nickel or Iron, Nylon, and Aluminium or Copper (outermost). The Iron element is magnetised prior to the construction of the device. Owing to the extremely close tolerances involved in fitting the ring elements snugly together, the manufacturing process is alleged to have been very slow in progressing.

The iron ring is magnetised to proprietary specifications. There are eight 'rollers', smaller cylinders with the same elemental composition as the large ring, and magnetised in the same fashion which are attached to the outside of the main ring. It is claimed that when they are started in motion by an outside source, they will accelerate exponentially, rotating around the ring spontaneously. This class of device is currently regarded as pseudoscience by the established scientific community.
