You would have to ask Rossi. That strategy might work. I think there are many ways to solve this problem, but I see no sign that Rossi intends to do any of them. I think it would be better to throw a large sum of money at the problem to improve reliability. I mean $100 million or so. As I have said here, I think it will take far more money than that, but even billions of dollars are a trivial sum compared to the profits that will be made, and the money consumers will save, so the cost is unimportant. The important thing is: 1. Do it quickly, or the competition will beat you to the market. 2. Ensure reliability and safety. Cold fusion resembles aviation in that respect. In aviation, they *never* stint on the money it takes to ensure an extremely high level of safety and reliability. Much higher than other industries. Aviation would be destroyed if a dozen large airplanes crashed because of mechanical problems or design errors. - Jed
