Here is some video on YouTube of my permanent quadrupole magnet. It is
actually a magnet with 4 poles, and they are only found inside of
particle accelerators used in nuclear labrotories.

In the video I rotate a ceramic magnet in my hands along its horizontal
axis, just partially underneat the quadrupole magnet. And simply
because of the design in the quadrupole magnet, it rotates around its
vertical axis, and because it is a ring shaped magnet with a hole just
small enough for a rotor, it becomes a spinning disk. I do this to
show all 4 poles, and you can see how when I raise the little magnet
above and below the quadrupole magnet, it causes it to spin a half
rotation.

Does anyone have ideas for parts I could by to run some further
experiments. I want to get a very slow moving, extremely low voltage
motor to spin one of the magnets, and I want to get an equally low
power generator, that can work when the other magnet rotates in the
fields created. There is virtually no extra force required to spin
either magnet, and it feels like I am spinning the quadrupole magnet
with free energy.

But I don't know how to test the theory.

Thanks!!!

What theory? Free energy? Forget it - unless want to wind up as another
internet crackpot. Read this instead:

Quadrupole magnets are nothing special:

These days it's possible to make magnets with many poles. They're often
used in brushless DC motors:
