Steorn Article In Irish Business Post
Monday, June 7, 2010
Sean McCarthy, chief executive of Steorn, said he expected at least 5,000 people to pay a licence fee of €419 to use the so called Orbo technology this year. The income from Steorn’s ‘developer forum’ would help it to break even this year, he said.
In 2006 the company claimed that its Orbo device could generate free power by using magnetism to multiply energy. However, a public demonstration of the technology the following year failed and its claims have been widely criticised by the scientific community, as the first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed.
McCarthy said that about 7,000 people saw the Orbo device in action during a display in Dublin earlier this year, and it had attracted a million visitors online.
The firm opened its developer forum on April 1, a date McCarthy said was ‘‘tongue in cheek, classic Steorn’’.
He insisted last week that the system worked and had attracted interest from around the world. ‘‘We have had 15,000 pre-applications for developers’ licences; 50 per cent of those might not be real, but we are very happy with the progress," he said.
McCarthy said that the first uses of the technology were likely to be in basic applications, such as heaters. ‘‘That’s the easiest way to use excess energy. But in 18 months to two years, we expect to see it in things like chargers for mobile phones," he said.
McCarthy said he expected that Steorn would be ‘‘getting stick continually’’ over its free energy claims. ‘‘If I was watching it and wasn’t involved, I’d be saying the same things," he said. ‘‘It is a difficult thing for rational people to accept and, when something is vague, it is seen as some kind of fraud.
There is no rule book for something like this."
He said that the company would publish details of the technology behind the Orbo system on its website this week.
‘‘It is classical scientific and engineering content about magnetism and fundamental physics," he said. ‘‘It shows that what’s inside this is real."
Steorn’s latest accounts show a loss of about €3 million in 2008, bringing its accumulated losses to €12.4 million.
McCarthy said the firm should break even or make a modest profit this year, and had the support of its shareholders.
The firm has raised €16 million in funding, with all the backing coming from private investors, rather than institutions.
The company has 18 staff, down from a high of 22.
‘‘We had to take a little bit of pain, but we were lucky - we have raised a fair chunk of money and we got the money we needed when it was available," he said.

Busy Week At Steorn
Thursday, February 4, 2010
Headlines
- Commercial Organisations Have Already Pre-Applied
- Steorn To Tour USA
- Independent Calorimetry Results To Be Published Soon
- SKDB Open To Public / Developers Next Monday 8th
- Public Demo Extended Fri 26th To Enable Independent Measurement
- Over 200,000 Views To Steorn YouTube Channel
Steorn have completed their final experiment in the series, entitled "Proving Overunity" to a packed house and to a large live internet audience (videos posted below). Over the course of the experiments we have seen that the energy is not coming from the magnets themselves, there is no back EMF is an Orbo motor and that it displays some highly unique charecteristics. Orbo is now officially the worlds first commercial overunity technology.
Steorn - Proving Overunity Part 1
Also announced during the live demo was Steorn's intention to tour the USA, presumably to do more talks and presentations and to promote the adoption of their technology into the product development community.
Sean recently talked a bit in the public forum also.
Sean McCarthy - "R was a measured value (it can also be derived from the base V I data that will be published). The rotor did slow down when the coil was pushed in (i.e. more of the rotor KE was converted to electrical energy as the pick-up coil was moved in)."
The point about yesterday was how I started this thread (and how I will now leave it). We showed a significant energy result that can only be achived on the basis of the tech being real, or the experiment being rigged - a rigged experiment would be fraud and no doubt I would go to jail for that.
But it was not rigged, and people can discuss (and will discuss) at great length how they would have tested it and all that - the tests where in fact designed by people external to Steorn, who represent our core target market at this point."
Steorn SKDB - Building, Collaboration and Teamwork 2010
Friday, January 1, 2010
In ClaNZeR's own words: "Within the OS/SKDB myself and a few other members did a joint effort to get some rigs out to members for experimenting with and doing certain tests. Parts were sourced/designed/made in 4 different countries and despatched out compliments of Steorn funding it. These were just basic frames that members then built on."

ClimateGate Scandal: Gore Speaks Out
Sunday, November 29, 2009
If you've been holidaying on Venus for the last week, you may have missed some incredible news.
Remember Al Gore and his powerpoint slides? Remember that poor Polar bear swimming about as the ice around him melted while he desperately searched for a Fox's Glacier Mint to camp out on? Remember the audience full of real human beings starry eyed and swooning with admiration in the presence of a god like Vito De Gorelioni? (Don mess wit da femilee.) Well would you be surprised to know it's a steaming pile of horse manure? If you hadn't worked it out already then you definitely should have this week.
Some naughty members of the hacking fraternity obtained access to the UK's University Of East Anglia computer system and managed to get a hold of a whole stack of documents and email exchanges. This universities Climatic Research Unit is well known for it's involvement in providing global warming data which over the years has helped push public opinion to introduce laws, form government policies, and now the latest scam idea - Carbon Tax.
The emails which were exchanged by some of the most prolific scientists in the field suggest conspiracy, collusion in grossly exaggerating global warming data, organized obstruction to disclosure, manipulating data, private admissions of errors in their public claims and the list goes on.
One of the emails even pokes fun over the death in 2004 of John L Daly (a leading man-made climate change skeptic), by stating: “In an odd way this is cheering news.”
"Hang on a minute!. Some prolific scientists that the public put their trust in simply ignoring data and reaching a wrong conclusion? - Now where have I heard that before?" - Ed.
With a maximum of only 32 days left before Irish technology firm Steorn begin launch of their free energy technology ORBO, time will only tell what future lies in introducing needless fake taxes which have nothing to do with saving the earth and everything to do with corporate profiteering.

Steorn Back In Public Forum - Summary
Wednesday, September 9, 2009
Steorn posted that their ISP had major problems with their European network yesterday that resulted in a 16hr outage. While in the forum, Sean took some time to speak to some of the forum regulars.
A condensed summary of the main talking points below or if you prefer the full thread discussion is here halfway down the page
wtec - What's coming up? Any rough timetables you can share? As I recall, commercialization begins before the end of the year. Can you tell us anything about what form that will take? Or what the public rollout will look like?
Steorn: The talks have been taking place - the exact details of the launch will become clear as it happens.
Steorn: Commecialization has already started - its been in progress since Feb of this year, public launch of Orbo will be this winter.
thebadger: Can you outline what format the public launch will take?
Steorn: It will the opening of our developer forum to the wider product development community, public demos and all that stuff.
wtec: Are the talks open to the public? If so, is there any way we can find out when and where they are? If you come to the Pacific Northwest of the US, I'd like to come see one.
Steorn: They are not open to the public, they are only open to teachers and students from the Unis, we will be doing more public stuff next year.
cordex: Didn't you promise to hold off commercialization until the jury reached a verdict? If so, how does a February start to commercialization fit in with the jury's June verdict?
Steorn: First I can't talk about the details of the Jury process due to the nature of the contract that exists - so read into that whatever you want. As for demos - what makes you think that we have not been doing private demos (which we have), but not yet to the OS that is for sure. When we do do demos to the OS it will not make it into the public domain due to the license agreements in place.
wtec: Is the documentary still happening?
Steorn: Yep the documentary is still being made, and I do hope that the whole story is in a position to get released.
Barclays: Poor documentary director, four years in the make, not being able to show the result of his work due to the NDA he signed. Guess he is not being paid by the hour .
Steorn: longer than four years, and it will not be Steorn that will try to restrict content. We cant even if we wanted to - we have no right to interfer with it.
Evolvealready: Are all of your fully working rigs CEMF rigs?
Steorn: Both 'brands' of the tech (PM and EM) are based on the same principle - the EM version is far more robust and reliable and produces elec output directly - so that is the first commercial version that we will be releasing.
Kaiser Jive Albino: Sean, You said you built and demoed privately some self sustaining machines. How long did you got one to run without any energy input so far?
Steorn: Power output is a funstion of speed of the system - so if you want high power output then you need to reduce rotary losses vacuum sealing and all that stuff - we do not get too heavily involved in that area because it adds no value to what we are selling - we are selling the right to implement Orbo, not a box with it in it.
Check out the developers forum when we launch at the end of the year - then you will get all the techie details that you need.
wtec: Are the nodding donkeys ever going to happen? If so, can Forum members get one at a discount?
Steorn: Not a donkey anymore - we will put one product into the market ourselves (P-One) - but I will not go into any further details on it.
Evolvealready: Have you gotten a PM rig to self-sustain?
Steorn: Yep.
Morgenster: What's the application most likely to come out first?
Steorn: No idea - other than P-One - we will have no control over what developers try to develop - it will be up to them.
Morgenster: So how come you're so sure there's going to be a tangible product by year's end?
Have some licensees shown something tangible that's ready for production? It is after all, September.
Steorn: I did not say that there would be a tangible product this year - I said that we would have a public launch of the tech this year (i.e. it becomes available to the wider product development community).
