What is in a magnetic field is matter in motion, traveling and spinning at C which is the speed of light and the speed of electricity. It is not coincidence that they are the same. The power of a magnet comes from the atoms of the material. You can try to charge a piece of wood, but it will never align its atoms to produce a magnetic field. But there are man made mixtures of materials that will align & produce a strong field when charged by a stronger magnet. But it only takes a few watts to align the atoms & after that a pm is producing its own power by E= mc2. E is energy, M is mass (matter in motion) C is the speed of light (186000 miles per second) times itself because it is spinning at C also. The magnets in a starter will last for years if the right material is used to make them. If they weren't making there own power, the small wattage used to charge them would be used up in a few starts. Clear as mud? Any more ????S

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
