I sell “poor quality” Magniworks guides

David H Venaleck
Venaleck: scammed or scammer?
He’s ex-navy, he’s a magna cum laude marketing graduate and he wants you to build a perpetual motion machine.
The device has been dismissed by physicists and energy experts as “a scam” but David H Venaleck, an internet marketing consultant from North Fort Myers, Fla, has emerged as one of the people involved in selling a DIY guide to building the Magniworks magnetic power generator which claims to produce infinite free energy.

On 28 July this year Venaleck registered the domain name ‘magnetsforenergy.com’. The sole activity of the site is a link connecting to Magniworks own site. For $50 it sells guides to building what it calls “A Long Kept Secret For Generating Free Electricity.”
The site claims that the device has until now been suppressed by the big corporations. “It runs by itself, indefinitely without stopping, thus creating completely free electrical energy, which can fully power your home for free,” says the promotional copy.
It goes on to claim that the guide is easy to follow, even for a complete novice, that the materials are available from local hardware stores and will cost less than $100.

Magniworks affiliate

Venaleck admits he is a Magniworks affiliate and says that he has sold hundreds of the guides. But he denies they are a scam. “This is not an ethical situation,” he said. “The concept works and if you don’t like it you can ask for your money back and you will receive it.”

“Magniworks doesn’t promise to run infinitely but indefinitely. It works, but as there is no way of knowing when it will stop working, it is absolutely fair to describe it as ‘indefinite’.”

However he admited that the guide itself is of poor quality and that the device it describes, far from “powering your house” only produces 24 watts. “You would need five or six of them to run your home,” he added.                                      

Oversold

While he denies that Magniwork’s claims are misleading, he admits that they are perhaps “a little aggressive.” “Yes it is oversold, but on balance it is truthful,” said Venaleck.

Unlike many of the other people endorsing and selling Magniworks, Venaleck has made no attempt to conceal his identity. He has worked with computers for decades and therefore knows how to hide his tracks if he wants to.

In several articles that appear under his name, he expresses his reservations about Magniworks’ claims.  In a piece listed on residentialenergykit.com he writes: “the building instructions are not for the novice handyman. You will need some experience in construction techniques.”                                                                 

Blame Google

But on magnetsforenergy.com, there are no such reservations. Wenaleck blames  Google for preventing him from presenting his caveats fully. “I express my concerns on my site, but unlike Yahoo and MSN, Google has prevented me from using it to link to Magniworks. That means I can’t qualify what they say.”
That doesn’t prevent him from giving it the heartiest endorsement however. “This product has my top recommendation,” he concludes.

Off-grid concludes that you shouldn’t buy it. If however after reading this you are still interested, you might want to know that we have access to twenty million dollars belonging to a Nigerian oil magnate who needs to get his funds out of the country. He would like to park them in your bank account for a while. Send us two hundred dollars and we’ll send you the $20 mill.

  1. This is my email to Alex:

    Alex,

    Thanks for you comments. Yes I am an affiliate of Magniwork. Of course you are entitled to say and think what you want; but as a journalist shouldn’t you be objective before you publish?

    Let me help you. I agree with you IF Magniwork was promoting perpetual motion, over unity and something for nothing, that would be a scam. There is a part of the world population always looking for something for nothing and when they find something that looks like something for nothing they jump on it. Because this population views this science as something for nothing it does not mean the science is claiming something for nothing. Let me give you a few examples.

    A solar panel gathers energy for free. The source is the sun. It will not do this for ever. It is not perpetual. For your lifespan the solar panel is capable of “producing” (gathering) energy for your entire life. Does it make a difference to you that, it is not perpetual? Interesting lesson on perspective.

    Magnets opposite poles attract. Move a strong magnet towards another’s opposite pole and they will snap together. What is the force that moved them? Is this force perpetual? Can this force be used over and over again to do work? Before we in the scientific world fully understand magnetism, we will make false calms about it because we do not have a choice. We just don’t know better. It’s a mystery and it is human nature to apply reason, even though the reason may be faulty. False claims should not prevent us from using magnetisms force for work. Wouldn’t you agree?

    Magniwork (or I as an affiliate) is not promoting perpetual motion in my opinion. They have implemented instructions to build a scientific experiment in magnetism. I’m sure you have investigated all the related material and know that this magnetic motor design has been around for over 25 years. Because the implemented design will “produce” (gather) power from a seemingly absent force, it looks like something for nothing; but is it really?

    I challenge you to present the dilemma of something for nothing and perpetual in an objective way.
