Well, if you proceed with a prototype, you might also want to
contact Dennis Cravens for advice. He has built a simple device
giving a continuous "signal"- ongoing for a couple of years! It is
not a lot of power - down in the 100 picowatt range or less but it
just sits there and "sings" as he says. I suspect to convince a
skeptic, one would need to fully distinguish what he is seeing with
his "fusion battery" or tuned tank circuit from RF. It would also be
interesting to know the energy density in terms of watt-years per
mole or something like that - which could possibly make it sound a
little more impressive (since there could not be much deuterium present.
Two identical circuits, one loaded and one not loaded should
eliminare RF as contributory. BTW - the circuit consists of a loaded
Pd wire coil which is part of a tank circuit in which presumably the
occasional LENR reactions causes "shot noise" from ion production -
and that rings the circuit. "You can simply see the events on the
scope. If you put it on a freq. anl. you can see a peak around the
20 MHz range." - D2 Dennis Cravens
That's interesting. Now, is there any charged particle radiation from
this thing? What's the physical arrangement?
