Another one of my inventions circa 1980. I still think this technology is feasible as an assist to electric vehicle power. The first reviewer thought I was trying to create perpetual energy. It was all a little bit oversimplified and I didn’t know how to present it at the time, but the idea was to recapture the vertical energy wasted by the up and down motion of vehicles rather than wasting it all on heating up the shock absorbers.
It may have been a bouncy ride, but I’m sure there is a technical way to get around that. The more potholes, the better.
