I suppose the question is; How inefficient does the solar cell array become when the device is throttled back significantly? Since all the power eventually becomes radiated, the black body temperature must be adjusted downwards as the required output power is reduced. Since the radiated power

I have a comment regarding the source voltage and the spectrum generated by a plasma heated by that voltage. The 10 volt supply can be used to generate heating of the plasma due to the power absorbed by the plasma. The resulting high temperature can ionize the plasma by itself and therefore t

Bob, I would assume that the emissions from the plasma would contain spectral lines. Mills states that the when the hydrino releases its energy into a receptor atom that this atom becomes ionized. When a free electron recombines with the ion it seems likely that many transition states are pos
