Permenent magnets for electric motors.

Some companies have developed electric motors that use permanent magnets instead of the electromagnet variety and are claiming above unity (more energy out of the system than you put it). It is very difficult not to believe their claims having seen the prototypes on youtube. It actually helps not being an engineer because that makes it far easier to believe these inventions. I think we need thinkers who can think out of the box to discover these types of devices. We cannot be so arrogant to believe that we already know all there is to know and cannot possibly have overlooked something. These devices like the TPU can in fact be explained with the current newtonian laws if someone were to do the calculations. They are not necessarily breaking any laws of physics in the process. But like they say, laws are there to be broken.
