I don't think there is any RF generator. My understanding of how the process works is this....
First, the nano sized powder is cleaned of impurities by being baked and perhaps exposed to chemicals. Second, the nano sized powder is bathed in chemicals and baked repeatedly. This makes it able to absorb more hydrogen. Third, the powder is mixed with one or more catalysts. One of these catalysts may be sodium hydride. Fourth, the sodium hydride and nickel powder are embedded into some sort of ceramic. Fifth, this is placed in the cell. Sixth, the cell is pumped with hydrogen. Seventh, the resistor in the cell is turned on which produces heat. Eighth, when the cell reaches a certain temperature the sodium hydride releases atomic hydrogen which fills in the little cracks in the nickel powder. The atomic hydrogen may turn into hydrinos (releasing energy) which then may fuse with the nickel which may produce more energy. Ninth, the temperature in the cell rises. Then the input is reduced slightly to allow the temperature to go down. This allows the sodium hydride to regenerate and absorb hydrogen. Tenth, the current through the resistor is increased and the cycle starts all over again. I do not see any need for an RF generator. I think the system can self sustain if the temperature is hot enough, but the problem is that there could be a runaway explosion if that happens. Also, I do not see how the reaction runs away when the device is turned off. ________________________________ From: Mark Iverson <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, January 19, 2011 11:29:15 PM Subject: RE: [Vo]:Deuterium kills the reaction?

[snip] Of course the mystery box is the power supply, and my guess is it contains a precision RF power supply - to wit: a microwave tube or microtron or maser operating at 1420 MHz, the famous 21 cm line for spin flipping hydrogen. There is also an internal magnetic field in the device so the PS provides DC or pulsed DC for that. [snip]
