Wonder Device Gives Unlimited Power!

Brilliant Invention Suppressed by British Secret Service!

World’s energy shortage solved!

Details of an amazing invention have just been released after lying in secret files gathering dust for over 30 years in British Intelligence vaults. This Invention of the Century - one cannot call it less than that - draws energy from the fabric of space itself and consumes less than a tenth of the power that it produces.

The unorthodox German inventor - a Herr Coler (here) - who stumbled across this incredible effect in the late 1920’s after years of research, was ridiculed by his peers and rejected by the Nazi authorities. The details of the invention were confiscated after World War II by the British Secret Service and deemed worthy of suppression to protect business interests.

The Space Magnetic Energy Generator (SMEG) uses magnets and coils of wire to extract almost unlimited energy from the Earth’s very own magnetic field. How it actually works is under investigation but it is promised that a practical SMEG will be in production in the near future.

The first step will be to produce an Intermediate Technology SMEG - code named SMEGIT leading to the Operational and Fully Functional device - the SMEGOFF.

Late Breaking News on the SMEG device!

Our British scientists, located at a top secret research laboratory (this reporter has promised not to reveal its whereabouts) have succeeded in making the SMEG device small enough to fit into the palm of ones hand for low cost mass production. A well known manufacturer, who does not wish to be named, has expressed interest in producing the miniaturised SMEG. A company spokesperson informed me: “That by using an ordinary 1½ volt torch battery as the power source the user can, for instance, power a 60 watt bedside lamp for five hours or your transistor radio at full volume for up to 120 hours. The Miniaturised Appliance (MA), which we have named the SMEGMA, will be in the shops in time for Christmas”.

Latest developments.

A new audio amplification unit using the SMEG device has been developed and has been shown to have extraordinary Hi-Fi performance. The main feature of the new amplifier is its ability to convert, for example, Country & Western to total silence with zero distortion. A well known petroleum giant (a household name) has expressed an interest in this new concept as part of its program of diversification into other fields. The amplifier has been technically described as a High Energy Amplification Device (HEAD). This will mean that all Hi-Fi enthusiasts will be able to justifiably call themselves TOTAL SMEGHEADs.
