How does this distinction fit into Mills theory? To start with, 600 keV electrons will produce lots of X-rays. They could also bring about some beta-conversion reactions in nuclei. 6 eV electrons will only cause chemical reactions, primarily electrolysis of water, resulting in lots of free H atoms, which can then undergo Hydrino shrinkage.

Re: [Vo]:Understanding BLP: Chapter 6, the Demo
The SF-CIHT system is virtually identical to the Proton-21 experiment. The only difference is a few micrograms of water that the copper button encloses. The Proton-21 system produces lots of gamma rays. It goes to reason the the SF-CIHT system will produce a ton of gamma rays. The proton-21 system also produces transmutation so it is a good bet the the SF-CIHT system will produce nuclear reactions. If Mills goes forward with the commercial development of the SF-CIHT system, the jig will be up on the hydrino. This means that Mills is using this demo to bring in staying alive money from investors just like Joe Papp did back in the old days. It is as plain as day, the SF-CIHT system will never be commercialized. It is too dangerous to do so, because it contains the seeds of the destruction of the hydrino fantasy.

Re: [Vo]:Understanding BLP: Chapter 6, the Demo
Just like Proton-21, SF-CIHT must use a huge arc discharge to produce copper nano-particles from condensing copper plasma. A LENR reaction happens based on these nano-particles as residual EUV copper ion afterglow will explode them after nano-particle condensation out of the condensing copper plasma. Joe Papp used a weak high voltage spark to explode his water clusters since he somehow pre-formed these water clusters as a fuel preparation step. This mystery of how he preprocessed his fuel is what stops PAPP replication efforts. This is why the COP of the Papp engine is infinite and that of the SF-CIHT system is marginal. It is important to provide these water clusters through fuel preprocessing before the spark is triggered not after. By the way, experiments on exploding atomic clusters show that the energy release per atom is 2500 electron volts. This is where the energy gain comes from on these arc based atomic cluster exploding systems.
