Today I was in touch with Celani and some others in this project. They are cooperating, planning together, and exchanging information. That is excellent news.
This could be better than Rossi, even though Rossi's reaction appears to have some technical advantages over what Celani has accomplished so far. When many researchers start to work on Celani's approach, or some other Ni-H approach, I expect they will soon catch up with Rossi. In other words, I do not think that a technical advantage means much at this stage. In particular, the size of the device makes no difference at all. 15 W is every bit as promising as 500 kW. Once the reaction can be controlled, scaling up should be easy. After you publish a paper or patent showing the control parameters there will probably be 50,000 engineers worldwide capable of scaling up, and most of them will do this far better than Rossi did. - Jed
