The basic design is relatively simple: When the electromagnet (stator) is switched on, the magnet (rotor) spins end-over-end.[1] According to the claims of the inventor, Joseph Westley Newman, electrical charges are not "consumed" by the circuit of his machine, but rather, they move along the wires of the coil in such a way that when the circuit is cut open, a voltage spike from the mechanical commutation of the system is produced, sending charges back in the opposite direction with greater power (in this case VARs) than the wattage from the batteries. Therefore, unlike conventional DC motors, Newman Machines rely dangerous high-voltage inductive back spikes for motive power.[2]

Newman's attempt to patent the device was rejected by the United States Patent Office. When the rejection was later appealed, the United States district court requested that Newman's machine be tested by the National Bureau of Standards, or NBS. An NBS test program was conducted to measure the root mean square voltage and current signals at the beginning (input) and the end (output) of the circuit using various experimental methods. The test results were published in June 1986 and concluded that the machine had a input power in excess of its output,[3] and the patent was again denied.[1] Newman later withdrew the patent.[3] The subject is controversial, with critics concluding that many of Newman's claims about electricity and magnetism are false and pseudoscientific.

Should that be "rely on"? Not sure of the intended meaning.
