Renewable Energy Sources – magnetic energy old invention new product MagPower

http://www.MagPower.us tutorial and testimony of building a magnetic free energy device that generates free electric energy for home use, to find out how this has been done visit: http://www.MagPower.us

Follow this easy set of plans to build your own Magniwork Magnetic Electricity Generator for your home or business. A complete system can be built AND installed easily, and for less than $100! The Magniwork plans are getting rave reviews. Great business opportunity for those who wish to build and install these systems!

Did you know that you could completely eliminate your power bill, by constructing a zero point magnetic power generator?

A Zero point magnetic power generator is basically a Free Energy Generator. It uses magnets, and magnetic force to induce perpetual motion. It runs by itself, indefinitely without stopping, thus creating completely free electrical energy, which can fully power your home for free. A Perpetual motion device refers to a machine that runs perpetually i.e. indefinitely, and produces a larger amount of energy than it consumes. Thus, it produces free energy indefinitely, runs by itself, without having to need a third-party device or resource to power it. The free energy devices have been suppressed by the corporate world, because such devices, would allow people to create their own energy for free, which would ultimately shut down the big energy corporations, because people won’t need to pay anymore for electricity to fill their pockets.

Can this device be used to power a household?

The magniwork free energy generator, can be efficiently used to power your home with almost zero costs on your side. Furthermore, the generator is eco-friendly and doesn’t produce any harmful byproducts.Hundreds of successful magnets4energy generators have been built around the world, which is a proof that this technology really works! We predict that the technology will rapidly spread, and some industry-insiders even predict that the Magnets4energy free energy generators will be the energy in the future. These experts estimate, that by 2020 energy companies will start implementing this technology in order to create cheaper and more environment friendly energy. Until that time comes, you can use our technology at a very reasonable set-up cost.

How Much Does it Cost?

The magniwork generator DIY guide is on sale today (check bottom of the page for price), and all the raw materials needed cost less than 100$. The materials needed are very common, and can be easily found at your local hardware store. Once you get our generator set-up and working, you can even start building these generators for your friends and family.Our guide
includes over 50 pages of detailed instructions which are very easy to follow, even if you’re a complete novice. Furthermore, we offer 24/7 full technical support, thus, if you have any kind of problem or get stuck, you can contact us and and our friendly tech support team will respond quickly with details on how to resolve it.We have even received an e-mail from a customer from Cabot, Arkansas, who has started a local business, making and selling our generators.We do not mind you selling our technology, in fact, we encourage you do this, the more people spread the word, the better for our environment, and the more we’re going to save on electric energy.

How Much Can You Save?

The amount you can save by building the magnets4energy free energy generator can vary. If you decide to build our generator as a supplement to your current electrical installation, meaning, you are partially powering your household with magnets4energy, you can easily save anywhere in the range of 30-50%. This means that your power bill will reduce by 30-50%.If you decide to implement magnets4energy on a full-scale, it will independently power your household, meaning, you won’t have to pay anything to the power company. Our magnetic free energy generator will work by itself perpetually, and generate 100% free electric energy.

How to Make Solar Panel – A Quick And Easy 101 Guide to Solar Energy Production

http://www.SolarEnergyGuide.net – How to Make Solar – A Quick And Easy 101 Guide to Solar Energy Production
Making a solar at home is quite a daunting task and something that shouldn’t be attempted without fully committing oneself to a great deal of work. It may not be rocket science but it is certainly a tricky and laborious process. If you are the type of person who thinks a hammer is nothing but am odd-shaped door stop, it may be in your best interest to leave the solar construction to professionals.

Having said that, making your own solar s can really be a rewarding home project and by taking on such a project yourself you can significantly cut your costs – by 50 to 80% – over a commercially available solar .

Since the prohibitive cost of solar s is in large part due to the high price of solar cells, you will achieve most of your cost reduction by purchasing damaged and used solar cells from sites such as Ebay. After that, using your ingenuity and some handy DIY skills, the only thing between you and a working solar is time and effort.

For now however, let’s take on a much more simple task and make a single solar cell. This project is great fun and can show the basic and simple concept behind solar energy.

What You Will Need:

1. Copper sheeting.
2. Two alligator clip lead cables.
3. A sensitive micro-ammeter you can find this at Radio Shack.
4. An electric stove or a one burner hot plate should you have a gas stove . If you are buying a hot plate make sure it’s at least 1100 watts.
5. A large clear plastic bottle. Think 2 Liter Coke or Mineral Water bottles with the top cut off.
6. A few tablespoons of salt.
7. Water.
8. Sand paper, steel wool or a wire brush attachment for an electric drill.
9. Metal sheers.

How It’s Done: Cut a piece of copper sheeting at approximately the size of the stove burner. Make sure to thoroughly clean the copper sheet using sandpaper or steel wool to remove any sulfide and/or light corrosion. Heat the copper sheet on the burner on the highest heat setting As the copper increases its’ temperature the color will turn black with a layer of cupric oxide. This is normal. Let the copper “cook” for around 30 minutes. After 30 minutes turn of the burner and let the copper cool. It will shrink – also quite normal. The black cupric oxide will begin to flake and detach as both the oxide and copper shrink. It will take approximately 20 minutes for the copper to cool, at which point you will need to remove any excess cupric oxide black film left on the copper. You can scrub lightly with your hands under your tap. At this point cut another piece of copper at exactly the same size and dimensions as the “cooked” copper. Place both copper sheets into the plastic bottle, bending them carefully to fit and ensuring they do not touch. Attach the two alligator clips to each sheet, connecting the positive lead from the “Clean copper sheet” to the positive terminal of the meter, and the negative lead the “cooked” copper sheet to the negative terminal of the meter. Mix your 2 tablespoons of salt in with some hot water. Stir until the salt is dissolved. Carefully pour the salt water into the plastic bottle being careful to avoid pouring onto the leads. A good rule of thumb is to leave at least an inch between the water and the leads so you can move around the device with relative ease.

A solar cell is a battery, so you can expect that even in the dark your meter will show a few microamps of current. Don’t expect that it will light a baseball field though, and it would take acres of these literally to power your house. I sincerely doubt there would be enough power generated by this to power a light bulb. However, once you put this device in the sunlight you will see the meter jump to 30+ microamps of current – which would be enough to use your new solar cell as a light meter or light detector.
