		<description>The concept of &quot;Ambinet Heat&quot; can easily be confused with &quot;Ambinet Energy&quot;, there has been a trend in the &quot;Free-Engery&quot; groups around the world caused by all the &quot;Free-Energy&quot; hate against their &quot;so-called&quot; &quot;Science&quot;. The root cause being university professors and scientists who stick to their book of &quot;scientific laws&quot; and reject anything and everything outside those &quot;laws&quot; as being completely quack, going so far as to form professional panels to discredit the people researching &quot;Free-Energy&quot;. So these Free-Energy researchers have changed their tactics using words such as &quot;Ambient Energy&quot; to imply that the energy does still come from an environment that cannot be seen, such as Zero-Point Energy and therefore does not break any laws of physics. In the same way that light energy or wind energy comes from the environment and creates electric power. Only that these generators are pulling their power from an environment that is not directly observable.



Hope that clarifies things a bit.

Cheers

		<description>@ Justin:



Thanks for your opinion! As a physicist could I ask you to expand on why this could never work? Perhaps we can patch up the article a bit with some more information.



As for renewable tech and quackery, I&#039;m all-too-wary of false claims &quot;green&quot; technologies. The only reason I decided to write this article was because they promise an actual product. Someone has their money riding on it. It&#039;s certainly possible that it won&#039;t come to anything, but if it actually does I think it would be exciting. I, for one, am content to wait and see.</description>

		<description>@ Meryn:



Thanks for the link! I admit it wasn&#039;t clear to me where they made the distinction between their &quot;zero point&quot; and ambient heat technologies. The fact that there is a confusion there - and more importantly, no clarifications on their part - does raise some red flags for me. But I&#039;m content to see one or the other, if it hits the market.</description>

		<description>Thanks for all your comments, I always appreciate feedback even if it&#039;s not complimentary.



I&#039;ll be honest and say that this article isn&#039;t up to par with our others. I&#039;ve decided not to take it down, despite its faults, just because it&#039;s an exciting concept if it ever works out.



So a disclaimer for future readers: The explanations contained here are rudimentary at best. I&#039;ve already made my comments about the sources. Take away from this article the base concept: that a renewable energy source might hit the market within the next year or so, and if it actually works it could have a significant impact on the way we power our electronics.



Naturally, if it doesn&#039;t work, we&#039;ll file it away with all the other &quot;amazing future technologies&quot; that never were, and keep our eyes peeled on the ones that already exist, or come to fruition.</description>

		<description>I am not sure if these guys are quaks.  I will wait untill they prove thier claims just like previous scientists had to prove their claims.



However statements like these:

I read this blog every day and I enjoy much of the coverage, but this article needs to be deleted as fast as possible...He explains nothing and messes up an astounding amount of modern physics....but is in fact on the internet only BBS, a station full of crystal power and chi focusing...these guys you list here are perpetual motion hacks. Do not let people confuse real sustainable technology for quackery like this!



To me sound alot like religions dogma.  All of science all of it as a postulation.  A set of theories which have worked quite well to explain: &quot;EXPERIMENTAL DATA&quot;.  The only REAL law of science is &quot;EXPERIEMTAL DATA PREVAILS&quot;.  So, they may be quaks or they may not be.  But please spare us the inquisition.</description>

		<description>As a physicist, I now know how evolutionary biologists feel during school board meetings in Kansas.



 I read this blog every day and I enjoy much of the coverage, but this article needs to be deleted as fast as possible.  To start, the video explanation is of a guy who got his PhD at an unaccredited private university.  He is a quack.  He explains nothing and messes up an astounding amount of modern physics.



The companies you list have 2 patents for what they see as a world changing energy technology. TWO!!!  Does this sound like a REAL company?  Nope.  Magnetic Power Inc links to an interview on a radio show that they say is on the BBC, but is in fact on the internet only BBS, a station full of crystal power and chi focusing.



Zero point energy is real.  Casmir forces are real.  There is no debate here.  There is fundamental physics that requires it.  These guys you list here are perpetual motion hacks.  Do not let people confuse real sustainable technology for quackery like this!</description>

To start, the video explanation is of a guy who got his PhD at an unaccredited private university.  He is a quack.  He explains nothing and messes up an astounding amount of modern physics.</p>
<p>The companies you list have 2 patents for what they see as a world changing energy technology. TWO!!!  Does this sound like a REAL company?  Nope.  Magnetic Power Inc links to an interview on a radio show that they say is on the BBC, but is in fact on the internet only BBS, a station full of crystal power and chi focusing.</p>
<p>Zero point energy is real.  Casmir forces are real.  There is no debate here.  There is fundamental physics that requires it.  These guys you list here are perpetual motion hacks.  Do not let people confuse real sustainable technology for quackery like this!</p>

		<description>I believe Zero Point energy is something all together different then extracting energy from ambient heat. The first happens at a really small (sub-atom) scale, while ambient heat is wel... just molecules who are randomly moving around which can be seemingly slowed down, converting their kinetic energy to electricity.



The Ambient Heat thing seems quite real though, looking at http://www.theimagingsource.biz/en/technology/ambientheatelectricity/ and http://pesn.com/Radio/Free_Energy_Now/shows/2006/09/23/9700208_Rauen_heat_engine/ , although from my limited understanding of physics I would have said it&#039;s impossible.



I guess the devices are too costly relative to their energy output to make it ever a viable large energy source (otherwise everyone would have jumped on it?), but the technology may have its places in specific settings. It&#039;s handy to be able to generate electricity in the dark, without wind.</description>
