I spent a lot of time trying to design a device like this with magnets as a kid, because my grandpa was interested in the idea in a kind of humorous sense, semi believing that it was possible, and I still have some interest but I don't think it's actually possible. I think these are all parlor tricks that they're putting on the Internet to mess with people. If it was so easy that you could just do it with a basic computer fan on your desk in a few minutes, there would be countless commercial examples and people would be generating power at their house using devices. if you could do something like this in a few minutes with some basic garbage on the desk, imagine the kind of power you could generate with a few thousand dollars of expensive parts and highly efficient fly wheels, neodymium magnets, and a closed vacuum housing. You could produce free electricity in your garage.
There are so many experiments out there where they think they have free energy, only for them to add actual load and actual work and then BOOM, it does not work.
The magnet will lose its charge over time.

I'm guessing this is more proof-of-concept rather than anything you could make use of. Still, pretty sweet idea.
Where's the load?

I would like to see more. Have you got a parts list? I'm especially interested in the kinds of magnets.
EDIT: Looking through the comments, I want to make it clear that this is not free energy.
