MFMP Glowstick Test Provides Hope of Excess Heat Detection from LENR — What Next?

If I understand correctly, they've got the PID numbers recorded, in real time. For us in the peanut gallery, watching, would the real-time and constantly changing inputs (we had a graph and periodic numbers to see--if we could resolve them on our screens) be informative? There was one heater on the outside of the reactor. As the temperature targets changed, the PID automatically responded by supplying power. On and off, like a home heater responding to a thermostat. It would probably not be useful for us observers to try to interpolate the aggregate of those quickly changing numbers in real time.

The actual power required to heat two sides of the reactor/experiment was subject to a host thermal variables, demands, and losses. There was no attempt at holistic calorimetry calculation in this experiment. We get a gross comparison of fueled and un-fueled vessels. Thermocouples to measure heat on two sides, some radiation monitoring, and pressure monitoring are pretty much the experiment. Crude, maybe, but coupled with subsequent analysis of ash we should be able to detect LENR. If there was any.

I am glad to see folks continuing to defy conventional wisdom about the physics of transmutation. Humanity has historically shunned, and scorned, alchemists. Until, of course, they produced some useful process or discovery: then, they became historical heroes. (Albeit often posthumously.)

I'm pretty old. Old enough to remember fairy tales like wrist-watch personal communicators, light-ray-beam-energy devices, distributed portable personal electronic computing devices, distributed commercial sunshine-to-electricity converters, etc., etc...

"Bah, humbug," said many of then-experts. (Many of them my teachers and professors.)

What next? Fiery fairy tales like nuclear fusion in a take-home bottle? Bah, humbug!

You say.
