There must be something up with this black nickel. I did not even know it existed until I made it by mistake. I got it down now. I am running some tests on it in a hydrogen environment. Still no anomalous energy.

The result look like a person who was just beginning to turn gray. Some silver wire in mostly black magnetite colored Brillo. Apparently only parts of the Brillo connected to the electrical circuit. I placed some of it in helium at one atm and some in hydrogen at one atm. No anomalous energy as of yet.

There appeared to be only a little hole in the nickel. It looked like a rusted chrome bumper after a mild cleaning. Apparently iron degrades to protect nickel. If there is hole in the nickel a pit in the iron will form beneath the hole. This is what I found upon a deep cleaning of old radio parts. I had to grind it down, with power tools, to get most of these holes out. My new nickel plate is quite thick. I will not know how it look after the next 100 years. The first holes took 100 years to form. I always learn something from anything I do. Now I am applying this knowledge to the art of cold fusion. Perhaps I will learn something else.

I had to buff it with Burasso and re-plate a second time. As before I used a salt electrolyte. http://www.angelfire.com/scifi2/zpt/temp/BeforeAfter.jpg I was then intending to plate titanium oxide nano particles but they do not easily connect to a circuit without destroying the nano quality of the particles. These particles are used in sunscreen and are easy to get. I am now trying Brillo. Nickel plated Brillo may make a good catalyst. Nickel plating in vinegar produced a rough black surface. Maybe a vinigar plating on Brillo may even be better. Who knows? I am trying them now. Frank Z
