Someone shared a "free energy generator" link on my video, where a generator supposedly powers an alternator which provides power to the generator. Here is the reason why and how it is FAKE. (This is not me in the video.)

P.S. Free energy IS POSSIBLE, but it comes from the Earth's geomagnetic field as demonstrated by Nikola Tesla. NOT from any "perpetual motion machine" because there is ALWAYS energy lost from heat and no system is 100% efficient. But even if it were 100% efficient, it would NOT generate MORE power than it used.
For example: Even if it were possible to have 100% efficiency, which it is not, then if you power a 2000W device with another 2000W device, you cannot power anything else with it, it only would generate enough to power the other device and back. In real life, however, power is lost as heat and due to mechanical inefficiency and friction, so the first 2000W generator would supply less than 2000W to the alternator which also would supply less than the less-than-2000W back to the generator, and this would continue for a little bit until both stopped. Even if you add neodymium magnets, this will have little to no effect.
Now, consider you added a solar panel to make up for the inefficiency. Unfortunately, your total output would be LESS THAN the solar panel alone when including a generator and alternator, because a lot of the energy sent from the solar panel would be lost due to heat, mechanical ineffiency, friction, etc.
So, in other words, it would generate MORE power to just use the solar panel or other input device (wind, etc), than it would be to hook it up to this energy "loop" to account for the loss of power in the system due to heat, friction, etc.
As a result, such a generator makes zero sense in real life. The only reason a car alternator generates power is because it utilizes some of the LOST energy from the car's engine, which actually by the way makes the engine less efficient than without an alternator - that is, it pulls some of the engine's energy to power itself.
An alternator does not make free energy, it just transforms mechanical energy into electrical power to recharge the car's battery (but it is not 100% efficient). Effectively, the car's alternator is actually run by gasoline. You are able to recharge your car battery from the car's alternator because you power your car with another energy source.
This "free energy device" is a fraud. There is no question whatsoever, it is a 100% fraud. Anyone who understand electronics and physics can see very clearly that this device cannot work. It is preying on people who do not know how these devices work. It is a clever and devious trick because it is believable by those who do not know about how the devices work. But worse, it is dangerous because it is causing people to spend money trying to replicate it.
