I will look for the designs that I can repair. The LENR devices should be like a navy reactor where the sailors can do the repairs. If you cannot buy replacements in the drug store, I'll look for a different model. Cars were like that. Hopefully it will be too easy to produce simple units that any Tom, Dick or Harry and make in their basement. Even Gillette was replaced by bic and other good razors. This technology from the looks of it will be to simple for built in complexity to assure a market. The government should immediately establish standards that require a consistent design for mating LENR reactors to electricity generators. Rossi seems to have these objectives in mind. The IEEE and ASME should get on the band wagon in this regard. However, an international organization for LENR standards will probably come forth first, maybe in connections with the LENR Cities organization in Switzerland already guiding the industries future.

We find something that works and we stick to it. Overall the presentation sounds good. There is a sticking point with this one idea, however -- there's an economic incentive for vendors to set things up so that people are locked into their own technology. If you bought an Apple computer and lose or destroy the power adapter, you will need to purchase an overpriced Apple power adapter. If you bought a Gillette razor blade holder, you will need to buy Gillette razor blades. I suspect something similar could happen with LENR power sources, at least at first. Eric
