"Patents" even have to be considered when selling demonstration kits I think.
Agree. If me356 has the goods, it is highly likely some other patent troll already has it covered, given the large number of as-generalailized-as-possible LENR patents in existence. He/she might not even be able to sell his kits, if a claimant objects.
He himself cites historical prior art for his technology, so that might work against any dreams of exclusive patent rights.
As unjust as it is, a hell of a lot of extremely talented artists, musicians, scientists are doomed to live lives of un-remunerated excellence.
