No hydrogen. No tests. I am still alive no ill effect. Titanium oxide is the white in paint. It is used in sunscreen. It is catalyst used in power plants. Its in make up. The data sheet states its mild. No danger from small amounts. Even water will kill you in to large amounts, just ask anyone who was on a sinking ship.
I was trying to make a ball of lightning in atmospheric conditions. No luck. It tended to agglomerate under the high temp of a spark in my pressure chamber. Nothing remarkable.

Did you test for transmutation? I doubt that an air envelope will give positive results in terms of anomalous energy production. But that is just a guess.

But.. One big missing data point is from you: what have you tried, what has worked, and what hasn't. I think once we get a reproducible NiH LENR project that produces something real, fine tuning it with another spark plug, voltage, pressure, heating element, etc. would be much easier. But I think one spark plug should be effective.. as it sure looked like DGT was just sparking their reactor very briefly to get it to heat up. There is an interesting thread on dust fusion on Talk-Polywell: http://www.talk-polywell.org/bb/viewtopic.php?t=3531&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 Seems to me an easy way to replicate the transmutation of elements using low power. It includes links to video, replication attempts, and some good discussion and speculation. My video of me nearly blowing up my microwave is posted there. - Brad On Mon, May 28, 2012 at 7:54 PM, Jojo Jaro <jth...@hotmail.com> wrote: > After reading the entire paper front to back, I am overwhelmed by the > complexity of his experimental setup.
