I have written to Turtur several times and he has generally replied. I have been unable to persuade him to replicate his experiment with the metal rotors buried in oil, perhaps on a raft as is presently done, or simply connected to the underside of the little raft. This is the only thing that will convince me that there is no ion-wind that can create spurious results. Doing it in a "Vacuum does not prove anything since the remaining molecules move more energetically.

Professor Turtur has succeeded in proving ZPE as the only possible source of energy for his electrostatic motor operated in a vacuum with a viscous liquid bearing. He has also provided detailed plans and math for a commercially viable electromagnetic ZPE motor based on same theory. The most intriguing parallel was that all these ZPE converters apparently require loading to operate. In Ni-H the heat sink must be in operation or the oscillations around the transition point will only occur slowly or in a life after death scenario after the heater is turned off [a very slow heat sink]. In Turtur’s motor the rotating permanent magnets must always lag behind a stator coil and capacitor tank circuit due to a mechanical load, an unloaded rotor will catch up to the stator and the ZPE contribution will be lost. This design requires an initiating motor to bring the generator up close to operating speed/ frequency of the stator tank circuit similar to other demonstrations of over unity motors I have seen on you tube.
