The Rossi reactor is already obsolete.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=L7wZqDQ7Pjg This video shows the Papp engine under a *dynamometer* test with narration and introduction by Jimmy Sabori. A high efficiency linear generator can be integrated into the design of the papp engine to convert the reciprocating motion of the piston into maximum electric power. This free-piston engine/generator combination has maximum high efficiency and reliability when converting motion to electric power because of the absence of the mechanical devices like a dedicated generator crankshaft, connecting rod, etc. The linear generator concept plays a very important role in this free-piston engine hybrid system to realize unparalleled high efficient electric power production approach.. This concept is best for transportation, or electric production at home or office when coupled with a generator. It can be instantly started or stopped based on demand whereas the Rossi reactor takes one hour to start of stop. This leaves the Rossi type reactor to best serve the very limited high process heat specialty industrial market. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=UNoxQDS3LlU The video above is a demo of the reaction inside the cylinder of the papp engine. You will note the formation of ball lightning inside the transparent cylinder as the noble gas explodes. IMHO, this marks the formation of Rydberg mater with mediates the intense electron shielding that reduces the coulomb barrier of the noble gases to the point of fusion.
