The interview is by Gary with Robert Godes (inventor) and Bob George
(business).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXAg_424_2o

I'd recommend watching from 0:30 to 0:45... then 1:02- 1:08

Highlights:

Brillioun calls their LENR CECR, for Controlled Electron Capture Reaction

The theory is described (0:35-0:42) as electron capture, where a proton
absorbs an electron and becomes a neutron.. with different isotopes of
hydrogen being produced, from 1H to 4H (protium, deuterium, tritium, to
quadium. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_hydrogen ) Then beta
decay from quadium to He4 nucleus releasing 20.6Mev. (40:50)

Godes mentions the Brillouin Zone
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brillouin_zone that has to do with shared
electron orbitals in a metal matrix...

Godes does a little name dropping by saying Google and Naval Research Lab
has examined their demos looking for radiation... Says radiation is not
present.

They have 3 reactors planned or in development:

1. Wet reactor, 105C at 2.1 COP (graph shown later in video)
2. Wet reactor, 105 (to 120C) at 3.x COP (progress not known)
3. Hydrogen Hot Tube Reactor 600C at 100COP (being built at SRI, no
indication it is running.)

They currently have raised 3 million and employ 13 staff. They are
currently looking for stage two funding. The interview could mainly be for
generating interest in funding.

At 1:02 talks about safety, low-risk of melt-down, versus DGT and Rossi.

1:06 only consumable is hydrogen, and not a lot of it. Says the Nickel is
just a catalyst.

1:07 talks about COP: Expecting to be able to pull 30kw thermal, expecting
it to be no more than 300 watts.

This is for their Hydrogen Hot Tube

Brillioun Zone: Shared electron orbitals in a matrix
Hamiltonian Dynamic

45: Robert has had scientists out from engineers from the Naval Research
Lab and from Google. They’ve had their gamma detectors there, we’ve checked
for all types of radiation.

35: Energy level of system containing H Brillioun Zone shared electron
orbitals
35-42 best part

 For the business end, they want to attract investors... and license the
technology to retrofit coal burning plants as well to sell to HVAC
companies. Bob George has experience taking a company public.

As these guys are in my back yard... I'm pretty excited that they are
making claims of progress.
