If anyone tries it to use as a tabletop cooling fan, let me know how it works out.
This has been addressed in a few other threads. You cannot power ANYTHING with a
magnet. Magnets have NO energy. Magnetism is a force, but does not have any energy of it's own. Magnetism can be used to convert energy from one form to another, all of our electrical systems are based on magnetism, but it has no energy to power anything. The first law of thermodynamics is Energy can be neither created nor destroyed. A magnet with no energy cannot create energy, but can be used to convert energy from one form to another, which is why we use them in motors.
I make and sell solar generators from scrap UPSs I find. These are often referred to as "free energy generators" which just isn't true. They get their energy from the sun's radiation which is converted into AC that we use in common devices. If you put the generator in a dark closet and it has no access to light, eventually all the energy stored in the batteries will be lost and it will not work.
Any type of motor has some type of energy source. It could be solar, fossil fuel, nuclear, wind, ect.. but there has to be some kind of energy introduced to work. It's an undisputed law of physics.
