Are they set in flux collectors?

For the most part they are mounted on steel brackets held in place with spot welds.

The brackets are actually flux collectors, cutting in half or removing the magnets will reduce the strength substantially.

A flux collector is a simple device, it takes the power of the magnet on one side and dumps it to the other side almost doubling the power.

Are those sorta like a flux capacitor that generates the 1.21 "gigawatts" of electricity needed for time travel?
