Seriously? I think the answer lies in the patent on p. 24 of 36 under "Detailed Description":
*Certain details are set forth below to provide a sufficientunderstanding of embodiments of the invention. However, itwill be clear to one skilled in the art that embodiments of theinvention may be practiced without various of these particulardetails. In some instances, well-known structures and materials have not been shown in detail in order to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the described embodiments of the invention.* <end quote> Namely, the battery which is necessary to create the initial magnetic field. Once current is flowing in the "belt" the Faraday Motor effect kicks in. So where are the power taps to feed the electrical load? And why is this 2013 patent only now making the news? It smells like I'm strolling in downtown Manhattan on Fulton.
