If anything.
They claim that $49 for instructions, $63 for parts get you a single home "magnetic energy generator" designed by Tesla.
I assume the video has an AC coil under the table.

If anything is right. Total scam. Actually a less "sophisticated" version o f the Hendershot generator.
Actually there is a device that can ALMOST be considered a perpetual genera tor. It will provide electricity for the average home for about seven years before it needs a total rebuild consisting of som,e extremely expensive an d hard to replace components. It is in no way perpetual motion nor does it pretnd to be.
The cost is about $1.2 million. Seven years of electricity for a million bu cks let's say. That is 84 months.
So it is about $12,000 a month fo what the electric company would charge $2
00 per month tops.They're not selling well, LOL.
What's that million dollar device called?
The schematic on the RHE site must be implying a very large battery on the left side.
what is it? several Semit-trailers full of dry cells?
A gas turbine in a box and a big fuel tank?

Well, it gets them $49 for instructions, and if they're lucky, $102 for the whole shebang.
Look up the laws of thermodynamics on Wikipedia.

The thing is, if they post the schematic, then the $49 is for the parts list. A single disgruntled customer would post that and then their business model is kaput. They must not have a disgruntled customer, which probably means no customer at all.
I had the second law in mind when I assumed there must be an energy input under the table.
It does what my invention does.
Meanwhile I am heating my house with them. Lots of them.

You didn't mean it sucks energy out of the aether did you? ;-) Mikek
Now lets see, if you were to find you made such a stupid move and to your knowledge no one knew about your embarrassment, would you say anything?
I mean, that's like taking on your phone and walk into something, what do you do? You look around and if no one seen you, do you go posting it all over? Most suckers wait for someone else to step up to the plate and show their embarrassing moment, then all the other suckers come out of the wood work. It's kist amazing how that works :) Don't feel alone here, I am sure there are many here reading that has done such things, they just won't admit to it. I am trying to remember the last time I bought something that was a scam, I am sure I've done it, just don't remember the last time or what it was. I tend to try and forget those adventures and not let them haunt me.
Oh wait, I do remember something now when I was a teen ager, with one of my first sports cars, I took into that thing about putting magnets around the fuel line, yes I was one of those guys. It didn't cost me anything to try because I already had the magnets but, I did try to say the least. :)

If they had taken my money I think I would try to prevent any other suckers from making the same mistake. I would try to expose the scam.
It is entertaining that YouTube is full of so many demonstrations. It's like there is an unannounced competition for electronic magic tricks. I want Penn and Teller to do a channel exposing the tricks.
If I knew how to build a device that could make infinite amounts of energy, I would not sell the instructions. Certainly not for 49 bucks.
I would make humongous amounts of energy and sell THAT.

I remember reading some 1950's science fiction rag that had a short story about a scam artist who accidentally made a working perpetual motion machine (actually, it stole all the energy from a nearby reactor core and started delivering it to the power lines, via the coil under the table -- the author knew his laws of thermodynamics).
Good light-hearted fun.

First, since they're not posting from jail (we hope), part of their business model is to cut and run at the first sign of trouble.
Second, you're a good man.
Third, one of the ways that successful con artists operate is to arrange the scam so that it is -- at the very least -- embarrassing to admit how you were sucked in. Even better is to convince people they're doing something slightly illegal, or to target old people who are afraid that their relatives may put them in a home if they were found out. The overall idea is to make people less inclined to go to the authorities.

No shame in that... the famous Bob Pease was a sucker for all kinds of J.C. Whitney -type mileage enhancers... and he was *way* past teen age!

Sounds like L. Sprague de Camp or John W. Campbell or even Theodore Sturgeon. I'm curious now.
A magnet on the fuel line would have helped when I ended up with some flakes of rust in my gas tank. They made it through the fuel pump, and would clog the fuel filter when you hit about 35 MPH. I pulled the filter, and it was clean. I ended up cranking the engine over with the fuel line disconnected, and ended up with a 1/4 in of rust in the bottom of a soup can.
Sounds like research to me ;) Any way, when I removed the magnets after about a month or so using them, I had to replace the small cartridge filter that sits on the inlet of the carb. Apparently some crap was sticking to the wall of the fuel line and when I removed the magnets it obviously hit the filter all at once.
When examining the crap, it didn't look like rush/metal but it sure did attract to the magnet and a surge of it hitting the screen I guess was just too much at one time.
