Are these reactors he has sold and rented the same as the R20?
@Director
Have to ask Ruby about that. On another matter, I take it from reading Mizuno's new comments, that he is no longer on the payroll of, or employed by IH. He is doing this research using his own money, and might have to close his company "Hydrogen Engineering Application and Development" soon.
Is it confirmed that he was ever employeed by IH?
I believe they had him bring a reactor for testing and was unable to produce expected results. Some have stated not enough time or possibly other reasons for the lack of confirmation, however I believe it is accepted that they did not find excess heat.
However, this would not mean Mizuno was employed or on IH payroll. Is there verified confirmation that he was actually in employment or contracted other than the one test? If so, it would be quite interesting to know why they parted ways. I thought I read where there were no particular hard feelings between the two.
Unfortunately, this is a bit of a mystery. Based upon my understanding of other legitimate researchers such as Cravens, Letts and HIggins, I have read of no issues with them and IH, thus seemingly to confirm IH is a good partner. My readings of the IH dispositions of the Doral fiasco indicate they tried to give Rossi as much opportunity as they could.... he simply screwed them over. It is very strange they parted ways, especially if Mizuno needs funding. IH has the resources and the commitment. What would have caused the separation. Please, no speculations about venture capitalist being evil! I am not interested in politics nor personal views on this. If Mizuno really has the goods and needs the funding, it is very odd that the two are not working together.
If the true reason of the parting of ways was known, it may cast a clearer light on the current situation.
A) It would indicate what IH thought of the reactors and or testing methods and likelihood of commercial potential.
B) Cast some light on IH's approach to working with researchers.
But then, if as I suspect, that Mizuno was never in IH's employment or had a research contract with him, then there was no "parting of ways" as they were never
connected.
So.... is it confirmed that MIzuno was employed by IH?
Thanks,

I did not read it like that Shane D. but it would be a shame if he is forced to close, but seems he might be saved by a positive replication. One can only hope. It’s truly a shame that LENR is so frequently perceived as being pending of a thread.
as being pending of a thread
Interview .... arigatou gozaimasu .. Ruby
Mizuno like many other researchers talks of existing on " sparrow's tears"
however 300,000 US$ is a significant pool of debt which will take many sparrows to fill
Its great to hear
that Gundersen will run Hikoboshi this fall.
and that Cravens will attempt replication of R20
..I am sure that Mizuno will have a different name for R20..
there are many stars in the sky
perhaps some of them run on LENR

I was under the impression the reactor Gundersen was about to test, is the R13 (ICCF21) he received as a gift from Mizuno after the earthquake?
Here is why I think that may be the case:
"Zeiner-Gundersen, based in the Oslo-area of Norway, has just received the reactor from Mizuno.
“I’m guessing I was one of the first to contact Mizuno after his lab went down in the earthquake, to continue and verify his important work, and I’m also working in a well equipped lab as well. Opening the shipping box was like Christmas. All the excitement in the world.”
“I believe its not the glow discharge reactor but filled with ZrPd powder that will activate when the temperature reaches a critical point after being loaded with deuterium. I think this is the same design that yielded 12% excess heat that Jed presented at ICCF21.”

12% excess
50% excess
500% excess
Big difference...
Has autocorrect changed LENR to "Ellie and I are".
Obviously AI is not convinced LENR is a thing.
DENEUM, you claim failure to replicate but you did not follow the long vacuum and bake out protocol. You also had termography instead of calorimetry. I am in no way criticizing your efforts, but you have to be clear that you did not perform a replication but an analogue experiment. Have you kept it ongoing or you already ended it?
