Note the following item, about 1/3 of the way down the page:
"Just what happens when the Hydrosonic pump is filled up with
water and
switched on is described by over-unity investigator Jed Rothwell who
conducted a detailed engineering investigation of the device in
January
1994.
'During one of the demonstrations we watched,' he says, 'over a 20
minute period, 4.80 Kilowatt Hours of electricity was input, and
19,050
BTUs of heat evolved, which equals 5.58 Kilowatt Hours, or 117 per
cent
of input. The actual input to output ratio was even better than this,
when you take into account the inefficiencies of the electric motor.'
Hey, that's our Jed they're talking about there! Was Jed really
convinced this thing was OU? That's sure how the quote makes it
sound!
Gotta ask, how did they measure the heat output? Take a big
calorimeter
to do it 'right'. That particular page doesn't say anything more
about
that particular demo, unfortunately.
Outside of the OU claim, which isn't vital to making it a useful
gadget,
it sounds legit. Is that apparently not the case?
