Brian,
He has demonstrated the SunCell to various audiences. Mills says he
will demonstrate the SunCell producing power soon after the required
photovoltaics are developed and in pace - later this year. Obviously he
can't do that before.
You are saying he is a fraud and will never do that, without proof. I
have trouble understanding the vocal critics here who seem to be of a
class "NO! What was the question?" Strikes me as very unscientific.
Slightly related see.

If it was true, he could openly demonstrate it operating.

Supposedly the plasma is >3500C. As it runs without any input power
why do you not think it generates any (excess) heat?

Brian,
Apart from some calorimetry on the SunCell in the early days, would
you not think a self perpetuating plasma would produce some heat?
Several (hired) independent investigators also back Mill's claims, or
do you think they are all lying?

Amazingly, even RM offers no data or measurements on this issue. He
could show water flow calorimetry to an accuracy of 50% within two
days of set up and calibration. I would offer to pay for it and
conduct it for him.
Alas, there is no calorimetry offered to the suggestible investors.
The mantra for Mills, Rossi and Godes is: No data = no failure =
ambiguity coupled with enticing potential profits = large
investments while showing nothing.
If they conducted tests and failed the investment stream would cease.

Eric,
I don't feel expert enough to pass judgement. I think that is the
point. Physicists more expert than me can't make up their minds
whether Mills is a genius or delusional. That he can come up with
values for particles that are more accurate than from QM and that
his program can show the position nuclei and electrons for
complicated molecules (proven) suggests to me that it is premature
to be so dogmatic that he is wrong. Likewise there is good evidence
that the SunCell produces a large amount of excess heat, though one
might quibble about the actual value.

Did you take a look at the link I sent? Can you help us to make
sense of those equations? What would be ideal would be an explicit
derivation of the electron-neutron mass ratio, which is purportedly
based on those equations. If you can do this, it would be a very
helpful thing. My strong hunch: it is not possible, because the
Mills neutron-electron mass ratio is ad hoc and was not derived
from them. But your knowledge here can help to dispel this impression.
