Wired calls him "The Linus Torvalds of Antigravity", but NASA still won't return his calls. Since the birth of American Antigravity in 2002, Tim has been featured on a multitude of television networks, such as Nippon TV and the BBC, as well as extensively covered in print by sources as diverse as Wired Magazine and Jane's Defense Weekly.

Balance Beam Experiment

Sometimes the simplest experiments are the best: for Bill Mehess, the idea came from noticing that a magnet placed perpendicular over a flat-magnetic field seemed to lose weight. Several hours later, he'd perfected a unique design that appears to negate gravity. Mehess claims a true 450-grams of weight reduction, and has video to back it up...*

"This device will exhibit a verifiable weight loss when activated. The weight loss can be measured from a distance up to 24 inches from the bank of permanent magnets to the device located in the plastic box.

A 12 volt deep cycle battery powers 2 electromagnets. When the remote control hand held unit sends a 24mhz signal to a receiver in the box it triggers a relay which energizes the two electromagnets.

The flux field from the electromagnets is of course vertical-north to south. The flux field from the permanent magnets are horizontal. When the two fields intersect the weight of the electromagnets is reduced.

At this point a measurable weight loss is shown on the scale. Also to illustrate this more graphically I have set up a simple beam balance. The weight loss can be increased greatly by:

a. Adding more electromagnets
b. Varying the distance from the permanent magnets to the electromagnets
c. Physically increasing the size of the electromagnets."

*NOTE: We'd also like to note that in this experiment, the permanent magnets are located in an external enclosure, which still offers valuable practical applications, but is not unqualifiably an AG effect at present. However, Mehess is confident that future iterations of the device will contain the magnets onboard to fully demonstrate a true antigravitic effect.

    I think that his preliminary test is good. However I would like to see the perpendicular(horizontal permanent) magnets be placed on the same beam extended from
    the electromagnet assembly. Then operate and test on NS EW planes.

    Exellent! This is the kind of news I like to see at AmericanAntigravity. I sent an email to the inventor to check if there is a vertical column of lesser gravity as with podkletnov and suggesting placing a watch on the electromagnet to test for time variations as gravity affects time.

    Surely this is an electromagnetic field effect
    since the external magnets are not resting on the beam but the ground.
    The electromagnetic force is levitating the beam by a coupling effect but is in turn exerting extra force on the ground

    looks like the videos are down too bad there isn't a mirror available

    Is very simple to find out that is just and effect product of magnetic rejectionand lack of deeper knowledge of the forces involved........a different situation would've arised if permanent and electro magnets would've been on the same balance beam

    You should be able to replace the electromagnets with permanent magnets oriented to match the polarity of the electromagnets. If you repeat the experiment with the permanent magnets and still get a gravity reduction then you can position a pinwheel halfway into the field and then you will have your perpetual motion machine.

    Has anyone tried replicating this
