Steorn's Orbo

Steorn has announced that they will be presenting the second in their series of live Orbo demonstrations today at 5pm GMT (noon eastern time, 9 A.M. pacific in the U.S.) at the Waterways building in Dublin. The talk will be streamed live on Steorn's site.

The title for this talk is "Orbo Electromagnetic Interaction COP > 1". COP refers to the "coefficient of performance", the ratio of the energy output from a system over the energy input to the system. By proving that Orbo's COP is greater than 1 (or "overunity"), Steorn hopes to show that they've developed a way to get more energy out than was put in — that is, to generate free energy. This is the most important claim being made by Steorn, and how seriously they will be taken depends entirely on how well they can demonstrate this claim.

Steorn's previous two January demos were aimed squarely at the engineering community, and flew well above the heads of us non-engineer-types. Even still, the engineers who saw them seemed to come to no consensus about their meaning.

However, Steorn is advertising their final demo, to be held today (Saturday, January 30th) at 4pm GMT (11am US Eastern, 8am US Pacific) as the coup de grace, the demo that finally proves that Orbo puts out more energy than it takes in. The demo can be watched live on their home page and will be available later on their YouTube channel.
