Re: [Vo]:ThomasGas - is it just another alternative energy scam ?
I think the most interesting thing about limelight is how almost all the emitted radiation seems to be in the visible spectrum. Carbon arc, for example, has lots of UV and IR for the same amount of energy input. Don't know the explanation for that. Those thorium gas mantles seem to have the same property, but work at a much lower temperature.

I can just see the oxygen and hydrogen lines running throughout my house, with the solar panels powering the electrolysis cell outside. There would be little pieces of marble clamped onto ceramic stand-offs with tiny torches aimed at them. "Did you change the marble chips this week, Honey? The light in the kitchen is getting a little dim." Well OK, maybe not. But it solves the battery problem. And the limelight really is pleasing compared to carbon arc for example. I can't really explain why. Who is claiming that lime light is OU? Tuesday, July 28, 2020, 09:35:04 PM UTC, Jones Beene wrote: >Maybe not impracticable, Michael, especially given the simplicity.

Re: [Vo]:ThomasGas - is it just another alternative energy scam ?
And the power of that incandescent spectrum could be anomalous and could be from the creation of Mills' hydrinos. I wanted to investigate hydrogen gas + calcium oxide "limelight" but ran out of time and money 2 years ago. I got one data point from my calorimeter that didn't show any excess heat at around 200 watts input. I don't show that data point in the following link but just verbally describe it as not showing excess heat.

Re: [Vo]:ThomasGas - is it just another alternative energy scam ?
Sorry Bob, I shouldn't have referred to my little ad hoc experiment as an "investigation". It was more like, "What if I look at a lime light with a hand held spectroscope to see what's there?" What I saw was what you'd expect to see: Dim calcium and hydrogen lines along with the ever-present sodium double D lines due to contamination. All this was nearly obscured by the bright continuous incandescent spectrum.

Two questions that I had relative to the investigation you note: What instrument did you use to determine the spectrum and what was the range of frequency you were able to investigate/determine wit the instrument?
