I have had some complaints about Arata's paper
and presentation. The paper lacks details such as
the method of calibration. However, we should not
overlook the fact that this is an astounding
accomplishment, and even without a calibration it
is obviously producing stable heat far beyond the
I agree with Jed, the data show some extra heat. However, I find this
approach to be very sad. Arata had a chance to design the experiment so
that the doubts and speculation could have been significantly reduced.
He could have, without much extra effort, made the demonstration
professional and

Very true! I do not understand why he has done

I do not think that a 1°C temperature difference is a small
effect. Most CF researchers would be thrilled to have such
a large temperature difference. Also, the ambient room
temperature is very stable.
I must ask a question that exposes my ignorance:
I suspect many who
Good question. The significance of 1 degree depends on how much
insulation is on the cell and how well the thermocouples were
calibrated. If the cell is well insulated, 1 degree would represent very
little extra power. Since we don't have any information about either,
the significance is
