What he’s said can be interpreted that way, if you add some words he didn’t say into this post…
… but he didn’t actually say that.
A ‘continuous self charging loop’ is not the same thing as… that, but which also generates infinite energy or is somehow overunity, over 100% efficient.
That just means there is a continuous loop by which energy can flow from the regen braking to the motor.
It doesn’t mean that energy is always flowing through that loop… it just means that some amount of energy could be.
It doesn’t mean that power coming into the motor or batteries always exceeds the maximum power consumed by the motor.
(that would infact be very bad and cause the batteries to explode/burst into flame at some point if we’re talking about LiON)
Continuous loop is… an actual electrical engineering term, and its actual meaning is basically as I have just described.
Now sure, if this actual LinkedIn post is rather recent, well its rather cute that he seems to think he is the first person to come up with this idea…
But, it is also cute that the vast majority of commenters in this thread are suggestible (by way of being mentally framed with a narrative by the comm this is posted in and the post title) and have either poor reading comprehension, or just didn’t bother to actually read what this ‘lunatic’ wrote… and are acting like they’re better engineers than this guy, that he’s bonkers… when in actuality, they’re all showing their own asses unintentionally, proving that they don’t know basic electrical engineering terms.
For this guy to have actually been trying to describe a perpetual energy devicre, he would have had to say something like ‘a continuous- ly self charging loop that is over 100% efficient’.
He even specifically said his goal was to reduce the need for external charging.
Not eliminate, which would imply he thought it was overunity, but no, just reduce, which… would indeed be the result if his system worked and granted an extra 10% or 20% to overall EV bicycle range.
Yeah, in engineering, as well as language, precision and small details can make for large differences in the end result.
They’re not actually describing that, explicitly.
