Magnets 4 Energy

Follow Along on My Build.
Get The truth about Magnets 4 Energy.
Do Not get Fooled

The buying Process Goes Real well.
First they take you to A Page that offers you some other related subjects.
I did not want any of them so I just clicked in the middle of the page where it says “No, thanks I would like to pass up this amazing offer“. Then fill in The credit card info. Click Bank is real Reputable so no need to worry about your info.

There are 5 Different Free Bonuses That You Do Get.

1 Run your car on water,
2 The Renewable Energy Handbook,
3 Living Green,
4 Gas Saving Devices,
5 Fuel Efficient Vehicles,

Check Back Often For my next report.

The first half of Magnets 4 Energy gives You some basics of solar setups
And identifies some of the components. The second half is well written
Without a lot of fluff I like it when they get to the point.
I have printed off the parts list and off to the hard ware store.
Back from the hard ware store and What A disappointing trip not a single Idem was found. Let my fingers do the walking and made some calls and was able to find some of the stuff but was not willing to do all the running. So I have decided to buy Most of the components on line and share where I found them and there cost. I have also converted the metric hardware to SAE Just easier in my area. (List at bottom)

Check Back Often For my next report.

The price of the parts are proving to be much more expensive then the $100.00 that the Magnets 4 Energy system suggest. If Someone out There finds them cheaper  please let me know so I can  pass it on.
The Molds are a pain a good saber saw worked good for cutting them out.
I have access to A metal lathe to finish them. It took a lot of sanding and many coats of varnish to get them smooth. I used shellac and that was not the best because I had some wrinkling in the mold from the heat.

Hi Sorry for not getting to this sooner I have been very busy.

I just followed the Plans for the Coils and it worked out fine.

The Magnets worked out ok on the steel plates as the plains show but I will put some mat in the next set as there was some cracking in the fiberglass nothing serious but I did not like it.

The spine with the spindle needed a cross piece for ease of fastening it down. But the rest worked out fine By the plains.

The finished product seem well built but it Does not run under its own power it does put out good power when turned by some other source.
I have hooked it up to a wind turbine but having trouble getting sufficient speed to put out sufficient power.

How to Get a Solar Panel System for Less

How to Get a Solar Panel System for Less
Everyone wants to go eco-friendly these days and is it any wonder why? The climate is changing, our lives are changing for the worse and we are damaging our planet! This is why we need to be more energy conscious. One of the best ways to do that is to install low cost solar panels.
Using the solar panel for less and wind turbine is the not such new technology, however it is becoming an increasingly popular way of saving money on home energy and becoming environmentally friendly. It is a way you can help set things right with the world.
However, until now low cost solar panels have not been available, these systems were always too expensive. New technology has brought the solar power for less and wind turbine technology that we have needed for many decades and even the least scientific of us can understand how the process works.
To really get low cost solar panels, you have to understand what solar power does and how it is effective. It is important that any low cost solar power system you use be efficient and that it retain as much solar energy as possible.
Low cost solar panels absorb the sunlight during the day. In good solar panel for less and wind turbine systems the photons in the panel retain that energy. These photons are kept in place on the panel using substances like silicone. However, for the low cost solar panels to work efficiently you need to pay close attention to details like panel tilt, shading of trees, or other obstacles.
The right installation and use of low cost solar panels can save as much as 80% on your electricity bill and in many cases even more. There are some solar panel for less and wind turbine systems which give back energy into the community electrical system, thereby giving the owners a 100% savings.
However, the savings should not be the only reason why you decide to use solar energy as the best option to energize your home. You should choose this option because it is environmentally productive and causes no harmful emissions, ecological problems or water waste. The only energy you use, is that produced by the sun. If money is tight and you can´t afford ready made low cost solar panels you can also obtain them by constructing them yourself.
Today, there are many DIY methods of producing these panels and these methods explain in detail how to go about the the process.
