(from overunity.com - from peswiki) The following is from Peswiki about the JLN replication:

However this does not mean that simply putting in a generator will enable him to close the loop. The reason is that the design of the 'active' coils is very important so that the input uses minimum current to cause the effect in question - the production of heat is a current^2 relationship. Unless this fact is considered in the design of the input, then while the system may be more than 100% efficient, the work done by the rotor will be less than the energy input into the system, and so a closed loop system will not be possible. Our next sequence of experiments will address these issues. We are quite happy to discuss this in more detail with Jean if he has further interest in replication (two of our engineers are French, so they should be able to communicate well).
