− | Bearden was among the inventors of the "motionless electromagnetic generator" (MEG), a [[Perpetual Motion]] device which allegedly creates a hundred times more energy than it consumes. The "energy source" is claimed to be "vacuum energy" and the design is similar to a simple transformator. He never provided any evidence the generator actually works. While a patent was granted<ref>U.S. Patent 6,362,718</ref>, a patent in no way implies the device will produce energy. The term "patented" simply means that a device was registered with the appropriate US government authorities, nothing more. The product or idea is not endorsed in any way, nor does the term indicate the device will work — at all. Promised commercial activities and public presentations of the MEG were never realized. | + | Bearden was among the inventors of the "motionless electromagnetic generator" (MEG), a [[Perpetual Motion|perpetual motion]] device which allegedly creates a hundred times more energy than it consumes.
