Inventing new technology is never easy, and it never goes
according to plan. People who think Rossi and Defkalion are faking
or fooling around because they are late and their devices produce
only 470 kW instead of 1 MW know nothing about history, and
nothing about technology. "Only 470 kW" is an incredible thing to
say in the context of cold fusion. That is ~469,900 W more than
the second best experiments in history.
The principal reason that skeptics raise the possibility of faking is
simply that no independent test of any Rossi or Defkalion device has
ever been reliably reported on -- despite that it is cheap, easy and
safe for Rossi to have it done. It is not because they are late.
Independent test is difficult for him, because the observers can do
disallowed tests like measuring the gamma spectra.
It is not required. I understand that he does not want this.
Required as proof is that the real energy is showed to do real /usable/
work like heating a real big amount of water or heating real room
radiators enough to heat a room and measure delta_t and water flow.
This might not be a final scientific proof but it is almost impossible
to fake and would be the starting point for serious interest of
mainstream press and mainstream sience.
The last demo is criticized because the buyer is anonymous and because
Rossi invited scientists and reporters and never let them see any sort
of measurement except for 3 sheets of paper after the test was
concluded. It is not because it lacked power. Nobody really knows
what the output power was. It was all what Rossi or the anonymous
customer's engineer said and nothing else.
