1.)System with clamp wire coming from battery source then attached to “real” amp meter. Clamp wire coming from “real” amp meter then attached to nick wire. Clamp wire coming from nick wire then attached to “fake” amp meter. Clamp wire coming from “fake” amp meter and then attaching to the battery source.Fake amp meter read 40 mA

Real amp meter moved 1/6 or about 17% of a magnet length

The fake amp meter was then removed from the system.The clamp wire was reattached to the battery source.

Real amp meter moved ¼ or about 25% of a magnet length

17%/25%=.68

The fake amp meter changed to real amp meter by 32%

2.) System with clamp wire coming from battery source then attached to “real” amp meter. Clamp wire coming from “real” amp meter then attached to nick wire. Clamp wire coming clamp attached to nick wire(allowing nick wire to hang loose, unattached to anything at other end) then attached to “fake” amp meter. Clamp wire coming from “fake” amp meter and then attaching to the battery source.

Fake amp meter read 70mA

Real amp meter moved 1/5 or about 20% of a magnet length

The fake amp meter was then removed from the system. The clamp wire was reattached to the battery source.

Real amp meter moved 2/5 or about 40% of a magnet length

20%/40%= .5

The fake amp meter changed the real amp meter by 50%

3.) System with clamp wire coming from battery source then attached to “real” amp meter. Clamp wire coming from “real” amp meter then attached to nick wire. Clamp wire coming from nick wire then attached to “fake” amp meter. Clamp wire coming from “fake” amp meter and then attaching to the battery source. Clamp wire is added between the two clamp wired that are attached to the ends of the nick, providing a bypass.

The fake amp meter read 85mA

The real amp meter moved ¼ or about 25% of a magnet length

The fake amp meter was then removed from the system. The clamp wire was reattached to the battery source.

Real amp meter moved 2/5 or about 40% of a magnet length

25%/40%= .625

The fake amp meter changed the real amp meter by 37.5%

This shows that the presence of the nick does cause some loss of energy from the system. This loss is obviously smaller than the gain of energy received by adding more paths for the energy to flow through.
