Direct Production Of Electricity - Infinite Energy.

Just been reading this short George Egely collection from IE:

Forgotten Inventions of LENR, Parts 1-4

It is mostly about direct electrical energy production, a lot of which I've been familiar with for a while.

However, I'd missed what George terms a "Dark Horse":  GB763062A_Original_document_20230316224934.pdf

I started a thread on the Colman patent a couple of years back,,, Can't locate it now.

Was it this one, referring to a different forum?

E-Cat Quark-X LENR in 1956? (Alan Smith)

The patent does seem a bit of an outlier. Whether the inventors actually built and tested the device does have to be questioned, since there seems to be little record of it (other than the patent application) anywhere else.

Thank you- that was the one. As you say, there is nothing else (that I could find) on the web. Finding this did inspire a group of Italian independent scientists to attempt replication, but unfortunately their group leader and financier became gravely ill and it never happened.

If the idea that the "cell" is some sort of short-lived radioactive battery, that needs hourly RF activation, is taken with a pinch of salt - then what else could it be?

I guess one possibility is that the cell might act like a semiconductor diode (or old metal rectifier) in one direction and an avalanche diode in the other - relying on some kind of magnetoresistive switch effect. Maybe the initial 300MHz whack creates a whole bunch of ions that remain mobile for around an hour, and when it eventually settles the switch effect stops.

The rest of the device does look strikingly similar to many older spark-gap facilitated electrical "over-unity" machines.

I'm writing a review of David Nagel's entire article, be up in a few days. I am of the opnion that direct production of electricity may be where LENR finally ends up being most useful.

David Nagel sat here for a long time, you can’t tell where he got what from.

The article has a comprehensive list of 76 references. You can see exactly where everything is from.
