One more interesting thing about this report. If lithium is the active fuel, and not hydrogen, which seems to be the case, then the ash which is lithium-6 is as valuable for batteries as is the natural metal. Maybe more valuable.
Thus the fuel is essentially free, since the ash can be sold for cost (or even marked-up). Not that cost is as big an issue for IH as it is for Tesla, but it could also be that Li-6 is safer. "Safer" is worth paying for. Remember the Boeing lithium fires on their new plane? They were NEVER able to locate the real problem. Perhaps it was lithium-7 and the problem will go away once they get an adequate supply of Li-6 to make batteries only from the lighter isotope ... which of course will be the ash of the Rossi/IH reactor and the others which follow. I could see the necessity of Safety Laws being necessary, sometime in the future to demand that only Li-6 be used in batteries. Why do I think Elon Musk is already onto this ? Jones
