I really don't think the copper is being used up.
So maybe we could precision weigh it before and after as a test of your hypothesis.
I really don't think the copper is being used up.
Stainless steel 430 insulated wire could displace copper by 40 times, thereby making SS430 more efficient than copper, and lighter with less mass, for the same electro-mechanical effect.
PS. One power, yes. We should not judge. Thanks for the reminder. And I was not judging, Insted I was saying that how they tested the unit was not how it operates.
So what they did is a good exzample on how we don't mesure the output.

Sorry for the rant it was late. The problem many of us see is that sometimes something is working then for reasons we may not understand it stops working. It doesn't mean it doesn't work it means we don't understand whats wrong. It may be this is what happened to Newman's device when it was tested. Which relates to the golden rule of OU devices... if it's working do not touch anything. Build a second prototype to see if it works and then only change variables on the second device.
I can't tell you how many times I built something and something strange was happening so I adjusted some stuff never to see the same behavior again. Science never was an exact science in my opinion and it seems more like best guess.
Newman talks about the reasonably larger gauge?? Definitely not 30 awg.
There must be a rule of thumb that can guide us in deciding what gauge to get and how much of it.
