'''John Bedini''' is an US-American electrical engineer, businessman and developer of snake oil products like [[Free Energy]] Generators, which are claimed to be [[Perpetuum Motion]] machines. He founded Bedini Electronics Inc. in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho<ref>[http://www.bedini.com/ Website of Bedini Electronics Inc.]</ref> and is a co-owner of Energenx Inc. in Hayden (Idaho 83835)<ref>Energenx, Inc., 10183 N. Aero Dr. Suite 2, Hayden, Idaho 83835</ref> which claims to sell revolutionary battery chargers.

*Bedini has invented the "Audio Spectral Enhancer", a device that allegedly improves low-frequency signals in electro-acustic systems. He filed several patents for this technology.<ref>US5,748,745 (1998-05-05) Bedini, John C., Analog vector processor and method for producing a binaural signal</ref><ref>US5,487,057 (PDF version) (1996-01-23) Bedini, John C., Apparatus and method for reducing electronic relaxation noise present information recording medium</ref><ref>US5,464,442 (PDF version) (1987-02-17) Bedini, John C., Anti-copy system</ref><ref>US5,455,785 (PDF version) (1985-11-26) Bedini, John C., Monaural to binaural audio processor</ref>

*The "Compact disc clarifier" is a further invention, which is sold through his company. He claims that the CD&nbsp;clarifier improves the quality of sound and videos on DVD by bathing it in an electromagnetic field. The concept of this clarifier is physically unsound. The CD&nbsp;clarifier was criticized by experts because of that.<ref>[http://www.randi.org/jr/082704gluton.html#4 Commentary: A Murky Clarification]</ref> Bedini Electronics Inc. changed their marketing claims, the CD&nbsp;clarifier allegedly removes electrostatic charges since then. This is bogus too, since a DVD is an optical device.

*Bedini also invented battery chargers which consume less energy then they charge into a battery or refresh battery life. Both claims are unsound and violate laws of physics.

==Bedini and Free Energy Generators==

On his private website <ref>[http://www.johnbedini.net Private Website John Bedini]</ref> construction plans for various kinds of [[Perpetuum motion]] devices can be found which are claimed to create energie out of thin air. Bedini has filed several patents for these devices.<ref>US7,109,671 (2006-09-19) Bedini, John C., Device and method of a back EMF permanent electromagnetic motor generator</ref><ref>US6,545,444 (2003-04-08) Bedini, John C., Device and method for utilizing a monopole motor to create back EMF to charge batteries</ref><ref>US6,392,370 (PDF version) (2002-05-21) Bedini, John C., Device and method of a back EMF permanent electromagnetic motor generator</ref><ref>U.S. Patent 6,545,444 (April 2003) "Device and Method for Utilizing a Monopole Motor to Create Back EMF to Charge Batteries". Expires March 13, 2021</ref><ref>U.S. Patent 6,677,730 (Januar 2004) "Device and Method for Pulse Charging a Battery and for Driving Other Devices with a Pulse". Expires December 21, 2021</ref> "Patented" only means that it's been given a number by the US government, nothing more. It doesn't in any way endorse the product or idea, nor does it indicate that it works — at all.

Bedinis Free Energy Generators were copied and used by others, like [[Magniwork]], which scams customers on various websites with the plans.
