Re: [Vo]: About the March test

John, This is easily disproved. Look at the temperature output graph. How does you notion of constant power instead of a 33% duty cycle explain the dips as rises indicative of a 33% duty cycle in the output corresponding with the measured power on cycles. http://www.lenr-coldfusion.com/wp-conte

[Vo]:new experiment (nitinol)

I've been conducting a new series of electrolysis experiments with Nitinol (56% nickel/44% titanium). I did a little video demonstrating nitinol's effect of contracting when heated while running an electrolysis experiment. I'm using KOH as the electrolyte. May be of interest to some here. Seems

Re: [Vo]:new experiment (nitinol)

I am using a basic open electrolytic cell with with a temperature sensor in the cell and one for ambient temperature. Temperature and power input levels are recorded every second. I start with an elevated baseline temperature in the cell above ambient and do several repeated runs allowing it to c
