The Kromrey Converter:

These devices can exhibit interesting operation, but a much more 
sophisticated timing system is needed than is described in the published 
materials on these devices.  The batteries take quite a pounding though, 
and fail quickly.  Care needs to be taked as there is a huge amount of 
hydrogen produced.  Gell cells do not survive long in this application.  

Kromrey Converters will run self powered for far longer than can be easily 
explained, but it's quite difficult to rule out shock excitation of the 
battery electrolyte.  The quick depletion of the battery might support this 
hypothisis.  Due to the high frequancy components accross the battery while 
in operation, measurments are difficult, and the power factor is unsteady, 
making it quite hard to analize the exact performance of the system.  

Over unity operation may be present, but is hard to prove.  Special cells 
add cost faster than they add useable life to the system.  No gain there so 
far.

In any case, the Kromrey converter does not produce "free energy", as the 
cost of batteries is quite high, and you must begin with a charged battery 
to start the device initialy.  The environmental impact of battery 
manufacture and disposal appear to rule this design out from any large 
scale applications.

I lost interest in tis design some years ago due to these factors, and due 
to the fact that operating a Kromrey converter apparently produces an 
imballance in the virtual particle flux near the device, as it is 
electrically unballanced operation.  This might easilt be addressed, but 
the battery issues are more complex.

Interesting, but a dead end in my opinion.

The Brandt-Tesla switch:

The Brandt-Tesla switch suffers the same problems, it does not produce 
"free energy", but it does produce cheap energy.  In a electrostatically 
ballenced configurration (4 cell, as opposed to the simpler two unequal 
cell configuration) it does appear to go over unity for short times, but 
again, the cells take a pounding and quickly fail. Shock excitation of the 
electrolyte is difficult to disprove, so sadly this device, and any device 
dependant on rechargable batteries would appear to be a dead end.

Again, a much more sophisticated timing devices is needed, each battery 
should be monitored by a microcontroller that controlls adaptive timing for 
the switches.  The batteries will soon reach unequal electrical conditions. 
 Shutting down and physically moving the cells around, like rotating tires, 
helps to a degree, but not enough.  Teh high frequancy components accross 
the batteries make data collection difficult for the microcontroller, and 
extensive filtering is needed. This filtering effects teh microcontrollers 
response time to the state of the batteries, and lowers the useful life of 
the cells as the charging cycle cannot be as accurately controlled.  

The important lesson from this device is that in the ballanced 
configuration, the virtual particle imballence is greatly reduced or 
absent.  This imballance can be detected by a high grade electrometer 
inside a Faraday cage, or by a Gradiometer.

"N" Machines:

N machines have not proven over unity operation.  The Sunburst device 
appeared to go over unity, but once power factors and careful measurments 
were taken into account, over unity operation was not proven.  There may be 
unknown factors in it's operation though, but still not proven to be over 
unity.

There is a varient of the N machine that does not produce power, but MAY 
have an apparent loss of weight while in operation.  This variation closes 
the path of magnetic flux through the disk, but not radialy.  Equal but 
opposite currents are induced in a pattern around the disk.

My personal experience with N machines is largely limited to this varient.  
This device may have nore to do with Searl's device than the N machines, or 
fall somewhere in between.

Over all, N machines appear to still have unresolved issues in their 
operation, and may well hold some promise.  Some work done on N machine 
varients in India reported over unity operation some time ago, but little 
further has been published on these so caled "Space Power 
Generators".  I give these an "undecided" rating.

The Grey motor:

While I have no experience with this device, Grey's motor has apparently 
been shown not to be over unity recently.  I think the papers on this can 
be found in the INE proceedings.  Anyone have these referances?
