There was a question on a boondocking forum about using an electric motor to spin a generator to charge your batteries. He wasn't sure where the energy to run the electric motor would come from, if not the batteries, but once he figures it out, he's gonna be rich!
These people have no business anywhere near any sort of energy transfer systems

There are people that flat out do not understand impedance and that you can't just hook up an infinite number of generators to a turbine shaft. The lower power your car is the more this is evident when you turn on the AC (except modern systems now shut off the AC during max accel/demand from the engine), but they still "don't get it". They truly believe it's unlimited power.
