The hydrogen storage tech is way more interesting than the whole system in my opinion. If this system is to reach its claimed maximum storage capacity of 40kWh there are some serious conversion efficiency problems to overcome.

The first problem is the…

Some interesting progress has been reported.
Apart from applying so called Capuchin knots Celani improved his setup by prolonging the AHE effects using an additional anode and HV pulsation in a different construction (without Capuchin knots).
The Capuchin…

Thanks Alan Smith , it’s about the Google team allegedly failed attempt but it adds some interesting tidbits, they even mention Rossi.

But I found the first of the comments from readers of particular interest, one commenter using…

For clarification, I do find Rossi entertaining, but that is only if no one gets ripped-off in his latest venture. He does have a history of that, and I don't want any potential victims to come here and be lulled into thinking…

Yes, thousands of coincidences. That is what you expect with 300 million people, most of them elderly. The average lifetime is 30,000 days, so you expect at least 1,000 people per day to die. Actually, more than that since they are old…

I was watching a documentary about Manhattan project recently. What struck me was that young age.of scientists who made key contributions.
Most of the most talked about companies these days are also powered by younger people.
Then the above video and many…

I realize that there is an error in the figure of my presentation at the RNBE 2020 meeting (slide 62)


Here is how I interpret the effect observed by Frank Gordon:


In my opinion, there is no emission of ionizing particles. There is an ionization effect of…

There has to be a connection.

This paragraph of the background of the invention is well written:

“[0007] The second type of apparatus consisting of a vessel containing palladium, nickel or any other metal that can absorb hydrogen ions in a powder, wire, foil, or mesh configurations is…

Thanks for the heads up Lou Pagnucco , the assignee is the US Navy, tho, not NASA, but is important as it is surprising to see a patent plainly talking about LENR in no unambiguous terms.

This patent is a bombshell (not literally we hope!). It seems to describe a working device where a LENR reaction is initiated by thermite, and electricity is extracted by Seebeck type thermoelectric devices. It will be interesting to see how the USPTO…

Thanks for posting this here AlainCo , I was thinking on starting a thread for commenting these very good news, but, as I was also wondering if this new initiative would be interested in replicating and studying the LEC, I think we…
