If this ecat thing is true “cold fusion” and they’re simply not using the term to mean “free energy”, my big concern would be if it generates neutron radiation. There is obviously some kind of high energy reaction occurring.
True fusion fuses 2 atoms of hydrogen into 1 atom of helium with the release of a whole lot of energy plus 1 high energy neutron. Other elements fuse, most notably lithium. Perhaps the ecat guys have found another one with nickel.
Neutrons are not easy to stop. Radiation shields for nuclear power plants are maybe 10 feet thick concrete as an example.
If this device is true fusion, I’d most certainly want to know how they’re trapping the neutrons to prevent them from irradiating people. Neutron radiation will kill you and there is no antidote. Remember the neutron bomb? Yup!
Fusion of and by itself is not a destructive reaction so it wouldn’t be generating DOR – at least I don’t think it does though that neutron is certainly problematic.
Fusion is how our sun works and I doubt anyone would consider the sun a DOR generator, right?
I will be watching the ecat developments closely as will others.
From what Jeff stated, its sure starting to sound like the smarter bad guys are realizing the “bad” business is quickly heading down the tube in flames and that its time to turn and step back into the light. I’d be tickled if all the bad guys did this. All I want is for them to go away and leave us and Earth alone. How that happens is secondary but if it happens with them stepping into the light again, it doesn’t get much better than this. Some won’t though. These are the ones I’d worry about but as the total number of bad guys dwindles, the hold-outs aren’t going to be able to cause much, if any trouble so perhaps it doesn’t matter and it all comes out in the wash.
That Forbes article sounds like the rantings of a single deranged individual. Read the guys qualifications. He’s an IT/Computer jock and nothing more. So where does he come off sounding authoritarian about the ecat? Right? Maybe he being funded to do this by the bad guys but as far as I’m concerned, he’s a lone wolf crying in the breeze and not to be taken seriousy.
The inventor demonstrated a large version of this device actually producing (sustained) about 500 thousand watts where its upper limit was supposed to be 1 million watts. Yup, its a farce alright and its a sham and doesn’t work. Gimme a break!
Never forget that when it comes to news articles, you shouldn’t believe anything you read until proven otherwise
