Jed,
We agree that 1 watt is all that is needed. Our own proprietary
Demonstration Device designs are all low power devices, simply intended to
allow interested parties to puzzle over this embryonic science. One or more
are likely to rapidly be knocked off as toys by companies well known for
that behavior. Youngsters will not be concerned that this technology was
considered impossible by the scientific establishment.
The Coler reproductions reveal no proprietary information. We have no
control or concern about the power levels. The lab at the university in the
UK that is in touch with us has now confirmed that they also intend to
attempt a replication. The Coler sheet on our website has had a goodly
number of hits from labs all over the world, exactly as we intended. Others
are probably engaged in attempts at reproduction without asking for our
analysis. All to the good.

Firstly, many eminent scientists since the time of Dirac have proffered
the view that the vacuum is an enormous source of energy . . .
If 5 million eminent scientists tied together made this assertion, it would
make no difference to me. It must be demonstrated by experiment, or it
cannot be believed. There is only one source of knowledge, and one standard
of truth: the experiment. The replicated, high-sigma experiment, to be
exact.
, not only in the form of classical photons but also and more importantly
as virtual photons. Thus extracting some of this energy (and seemingly
gaining energy from "nowhere") does not violate thermodynamic principles.
It sure does violate those principles. No fuel is consumed, no matter
annihilated. Obviously it violates those principles, and when you deny that
fact, you do nothing to enhance your credibility. You resemble a
hypothetical CF scientist who says: "Yeah, we get heat from fusion with no
neutrons. So what?" You must at least acknowledge that the lack of neutrons
is surprising and inexplicable based on what we know about plasma fusion.
There was independent examination of the Coler device by two academic
teams of Professors. They verified the excess energy and could find no
evidence that the work was fraudulent.
Did anyone replicate? Without that, it does not count.
MPI has been contacted by a scientist at one of the National Laboratories
who has unofficially undertaken to reproduce the 6 kW Coler generator.
Is there any reason it has to be so large? If it would be cheaper and
easier to make a 1-watt version, I suggest you do that instead. 6 kW would
not prove the point any more than 1-watt would.
Many people working on off-beat free energy have the strange notion that
they must build on a large scale, in the kilowatt range, or they will not
be believed. Actually, the opposite is true. It is far easier to confirm 1
watt than a 1 kW. One of the biggest disadvantages of the Griggs Gadget is
that it is far too big and powerful to be tested accurately.
