        Yes but it does not pass monopoles or use them. And it does have two
poles still a north and a south on either side of the disk and didn't they
use Hg for the outer brush? It Rich R would like this motor....<2V's and
thousands of amps are possible.

        Come on Lee, at least my example did not have a discrete opposing
pole. How are you ever going to get into the overunity club with practical
examples like that?
