My anode is a motor brush so its surface area is larger than that of the
nickel coin.
I have increased the current to 400 milliamps. With the active and
control beakers in series, the power supply is at 30 volts to drive that
current.

I was hoping to avoid the higher currents, which could mask any
anomalous heat being generated.

I had a lot of heat, whether it is "anomalous" or not, I don't know. I
think it is somehow resistance heating through the borax or chemistry
with creating boric acid. Just a speculation. I had heat >130F (I
say it this way because my thermometer was electroplated or something
causing it to register 20F too high. It read 158 or so at the max).
To get more heat, you need an anode with as much surface area as your
nickel. I used 12V at 1 amp.

been running at that current level for more than 12 hours now and
no anomalous heat has shown up yet.

Has anybody been able to replicate Chuck Sites results? I have
not seen any claims to that yet.
