That's kind of what happened to one of our group (Steorn private developer's club) -- He had an ORBO running for 8 hours before he went to work. When he got home from work, it had stopped. He hasn't been able to get it to run again :-(. It was a rather crude looking affair, so I can imagine the bearings wore out, but nobody knows. He did tinker with it to make it work better :-( .

I may accidentally extinguish it and never get it back again. I've heard laments from several inventors that they rebuilt their devices to improve them, and they never worked again. So, DON'T take apart the original invention! Don't move it to another location. Don't turn the power off and back on. Just moving your arm a bit wrong might eliminate the conditions which allowed success! Once you have it working, videotape the heck out of it, call in eyewitnesses, perform experiments, maybe even build several copies and get them working. Stay paranoid that the phenomena might vanish at any time, never to return. [RULES FOR INVENTORS, rule #2 http://amasci.com/freenrg/rules1.html]
