Gas powering and the specific electromagnetic pulses

I assume that the natural gas is supplying most all of the thermal component. Short of having a small generator or fuel cell, he appears to believe or is leading us to believe, that an EM field is also necessary to get the reactions to work or to work efficiently. It is no surprise, noisy switching and/or electrostatic or magnetic biasing is often seen in LENR as many here have noted. The amount of energy involved in this "tickling" or otherwise "driving" the reaction(s) may be quite small compared to the random thermal component.
