Hi Beaner,
This was a cool trick learned back in electronics class in high school. All electric motors work the same way, including this one. You're not seeing any new technology or any kind of perpetual energy or anything like that. The energy source is still the battery, and it will stop spinning when the battery is drained. It's cool looking, not its not magical or exotic.
If you want to see something really, really cool, watch this video:
But don't be fooled by the word "levitates" in the video descriptor. What you will see is "Quantum Levitation of a Super Conductor". and "Quantum Locking" It's 10 minutes long but really worth watching if you like cool science.
