EBM OU power plants. Anyone seen of heard of one?

They claim it was done in 1980's in Texas, but I have not seen any in the US.

And the control station picture looks to have like a 120Mhz 486 machine on the desk and 15" VGA tube monitor.. Humm!

Hero999 · 8th October 2006, 12:49 PM

I'm not convinced either, why haven't they taken over the world?

Marks256 · 8th October 2006, 01:01 PM

Hmm, that would be cool!

Oh, and i think that system is an AMD K6, or an INTEL PENTIUM. Not sure, though.

HarveyH42 · 8th October 2006, 01:13 PM

They didn't give much detail on what kind of fuel it uses, but did mention the purchase price includes fuel for 40 years. If fuel is consumed, then there must be emissions or some waste product. Even nuclear power plants produce waste. And of course there's the over unity claim... For a 26 year old business, selling something nobody else could accomplish, really odd that this has come up before. Wonder if it runs off 'Joe Cells'?

Mark256, I was looking at the number display on it. But you might be right, the old one were only 2 digits.

Harvey, Joe cells. That is a good one. So I guess we will still have water in 40 years.

Hero, let all build on can take other this rock.. It needs some work.

On the ABC news the AM, they said 60% on the pollution in Califonia is from China. No wonder that place has so much smog..

Energy By Motion? Seems like a complex word for generator...

Yeap, Sounds Like a generator to me. If you look at the pic, it looks like theres a motor on the back..

Hero999 · 8th October 2006, 04:57 PM

Perhaps it's nuclear but they just secretly sell the waste for use in weapons.

Usually, the numbers on the outside of the case mean a computer number. I had a computer a while back(now deceased), that had an LED display on it. It came from a computer lab. They were to stand as the computer number. So, if a computer had a problem, they could just tell the tech person "Yeah, computer 120 needs a new hard drive", instead of say "Yeah, you know that white computer next to Bob's computer, it needs a new hard drive".
Very clever design. But, i could be wrong.

I think I should leave this is chit-chat and not here, but I thought it was funny.

If you look at some of the photos I thought I saw wood holding some of the high tech coils (OK they just looked like big coils). And the size of the units, but they are talking megawatts..

Mark256: Not a bad idea on the PC numbering but I would just use stickers. I recall years ago jumpering a couple cheap PC cases with 2 digits displays. I hope that guy gets paid a lot. It took me more time to set the LEDs than to assemble the computer.

Hero: What if you are right.

North Korea is providing the fuel maybe

. Interesting, it needs fuel (that does not polute) and you get 40 years worth included free (calculated out with some formula we could obviously never understand). But that does sound like a generator, a magic one.

Is anyone gonna go see it. They have shows a couple times a month.

Overclocked: It is a special motor or fake one to protect this advanced technology (designed from Texas USA; wonder if a Bush project slipped out).

Yes, it's usually just a simple LED display with jumpers to show the speed of the processor - you have to set it twice, once for 'normal' speed, and once for 'turbo' speed.

And as you say, it's a real pain trying to get them set right - presumably, like the ones I've played with, you didn't have the instructions?.

Correct. That's the display. And that was a long time ago and I still recall it..

Marks256 · 9th October 2006, 01:40 AM

Could be. But it doesn't make any sense to say that on the front with LEDs. Sounds stupid. Also, i didn't know that the i486 was 120mhz. I thought the K6 and Pentium was?

It was common practice!, don't you remember 'turbo buttons', actually they were really 'slow it down buttons', reducing the speed down to standard PC speed, in case some software didn't like a faster nachine.

mramos1 · 9th October 2006, 10:45 AM

Yep. The button slowed the machine down for games that had software timing loops.

may be a radio thermal generator..?
