Revolutionary invention or fraud? </p><p><strong>Maxwell Chikumbutso</strong>, an inventor from Zimbabwe, claims to have <strong>created a vehicle powered by free energy</strong>, without the need for fuel or recharging. His technology supposedly converts radio waves into usable energy, ensuring unlimited autonomy.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading">What are radio waves ?</h3><p><a href="https://science.nasa.gov/ems/05_radiowaves/" title="">Radio waves</a> are a type of electromagnetic radiation that have the lowest frequencies and the longest wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum. Their wavelengths can range from the length of a football to larger than our planet, making them crucial for various communication technologies. These waves are generated by alternating currents in conductors, allowing them to transmit information over distances, which is the foundation of radio technology.</p><p><strong>But why hasn&#8217;t this invention gone viral</strong> like it would have if <strong>Elon Musk</strong> had announced something similar? While some believe that this could be one of the greatest revolutions in history, scientists and engineers question the viability of the project.</p><p>His device is classified as<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perpetual_motion" title=""> <strong>perpetual motion devices</strong></a>.</p><p><strong>A perpetual motion device</strong> is a hypothetical machine that can operate indefinitely without any external energy source. However, according to the first and second laws of thermodynamics, such a device cannot exist. The concept has been explored since the Middle Ages, but it fundamentally contradicts established physical principles.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The Microsonic Energy Device</strong></h3><p><strong>Microsonic Energy Device (MSED)</strong>, which aims to convert naturally occurring radio frequencies into usable energy. </p><p>One of the motives that they didnt accept to patent his work is because his invention brake one of the fisics termodinamic laws, that is energy canot be created or destroyed only transfered, but in this case his device amplifyies the wasted nano wats to the power the hole car.</p><p>There is still not much information about how it works, because he couldnt patent his work, otherwise his idea could be stolen.</p><p>Thats why he went for the trade secret root, that is a strategy used by business to protect valid information when presenting theyer work.</p><p>Is this innovation real or just another impossible promise? And what&#8217;s more: is there a global prejudice that prevents African inventors from being taken seriously? </p><div class="wp-block-query is-layout-flow wp-block-query-is-layout-flow"><ul class="wp-block-post-template is-layout-flow wp-block-post-template-is-layout-flow"><li class="wp-block-post post-2846 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-automotive category-formula-1 category-motorsports"><div class="wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex"><div class="wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:25%"><figure class="wp-block-post-featured-image"><a href="https://imcarenthusiast.com/gp-de-singapura-2025/" target="_self" ><img width="1200" height="675" src="https://imcarenthusiast.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/george-russell-vence-o-gp-de-singapura-2025-e-mclaren-conquista-o-titulo-de-construtores.jpg" class="attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="George Russell vence GP de Singapura 2025 e McLaren conquista título de Construtores da F1" title="George Russell vence GP de Singapura 2025 e McLaren conquista título de Construtores da F1" style="object-fit:cover;" data-wp-pid="2847" /></a></figure></div>
