I saw this once on ``Beyond 2000'', and if I remember correctly, the
gadget is driven by an internal combustion engine.  Unfortunately,
because the gadget is consuming fuel, it will become lighter.  In
addition, the vibration caused by the motor would upset the balance
arm.

Whether he did or did not discover an anti-gravity device is hard to
say, but he should be more careful with his measurements before
declaring anything.
