Admittedly, the current BLP website might be confusing to one who has not been following Mills’ work. I have, yet it takes me a bit of work too. It might help to understand that the website is a set of ‘lab notes’, the latest in a series decades long. It establisher continuing ‘reduction practice’ of the discoveries contained in the massive Grand Unified Theory of classical Physics, which is a free download from the website. Read carefully the ‘Validation’. Six competent observers were independently given a briefing by Mills, and then assembled a small test ell and tested it with instruments whose calibrations were traceable to national standards. The data tables are available on the website. For these test cells, the energy gain is in the low multiples and the net power low, like a flashlight battery. But the cells run for months. One of the observers extrapolated the potential power density to the kW/liter range, but practical considerations, now being explored, may point to a lower level. A 10 watt ‘battery’ has been achieved, with 100 watts a target for 2012 and 1.5 kW next year. The current capacity is proportional to the area of the cell lamina, and the voltage proportional to the number of cell laminas in a stack. The water vapor [gas] must permeate the whole stack to realize maximum output. The cell operates at 450C to liquefy some lithium compounds as conductors, and the cell must be well insulated against heat loss; the energy to initiaed the operation is not part of the energy budget.
Do not judge this cell as one would judge a LENR cell; it is a different beast altogether and requires study on its own terms.

I took a quick look at the Blacklight web site and came away a little confused. Perhaps someone can help explain the currently observed excess power to drive power ratio in clear terms. Exactly how much excess power is being produced with the current technology at what level of input drive? I recall that milliwatts were all that is presently available as excess output while it is anticipated that much more will be possible with further development. Is this correct? Has a 1.5 kilowatt output device prototype been constructed as of today? If not, what is the highest excess output power seen in prototypes thus far? What is the required drive level to achieve the measured output level? I am seeking accurate and direct answers to these questions. Please do not respond with assumed future performance.

BLP is distinctly non-nuclear, but rather anew hyper-chemistry. The reactions that convert H atoms to hydrinos release energy in several forms, including intense VUV [vacuum ultraviolet light, ‘blacklight’]. The chemical reactions in the ell are described in an article on the website. These are complex but result in charge separation so the cell behaves like a fuel cell, but the energy release internally is quite different. Con formation of the cell performance by six different observers is given under the “Validation” tab. Further outside, unpublished, tests have occurred. The reactions induce H atoms to shrink by a factor of four, releasing some 245 eV per atom, some 200 times the energy needed to separate a H atom from water. Each elemental cell produces a fraction of a volt; the task at hand is to revise a manufacturing process to make an inexpensive battery module containing hundreds of elemental cells. The basic materials are cheap and plentiful. A strong patent base is being built to repay investors. Patents run out and as the technology becomes widely understood and accepted, manufacture of the BLP modules can be widespread. The process is non-polluting and water is for the taking everywhere. I leave the consequences to your sweet dreams.

I've computed that with reactors similar to Hyperion and E-cat, the greatest cost is in heat to mechanic conversion, where best cost is very big turbines (500$/kW at 100MWe, to compare to 2000$/MW at 10kWe)... If there is no conversion to do, keeping the low cost of LENR... thats a festival. 8) I'm curious about the principle of that direct conversion, since it does not look like the other numerous LENR experiments (other electrolytic cells produce heat, not electricity)... The principle seems described here http://www.blacklightpower.com/technology/ciht-cell/ , yet I don't catch all... It is claimed non nuclear, and if I read well the produced hydrinos are the "ashes" of the reaction... so more like a "super chemical" than a LENR ? 2012/11/26 Mike Carrell <[email protected]> To Alan sepeda and Vortex who may be interested: For several years I was a close associate of Gene Mallove and for a while on his board of directors. I wrote a number of articles for Infinite Energy,, on Joseph Newman, Paulo Correa and PAGD, and Arata. Gene pointed me to Randell Mills and Blacklight Power, which I have closely followed for decades. BLP is now scaling up a water-fuel energy cell which produces electricity directly, which no LENR device has done. BLP’s goal is a 1.5 kW power module for domestic use, with an estimated installed cost of $100/kW. BLP is privately financed, with representatives of major financial houses on its board of directors. Details are available on the website, www.blacklightpower.com. I have visited the Correa’s home/lab and seen a demonstration of the PAGD cell working as described in my article. If any reader here wishes to correspond with me, I will be happy to reciprocate.

Though this was an excellent initial hypothesis, the commensurate nuclear ash hypothesis has not been proved, and appears to be approximately correct in only a few experiments. At the same time, compelling evidence has also emerged for other microphysical sources of energy that were unexpected by accepted physics. The exemplars have been the work Dr. Randell Mills and his colleagues at BlackLight Power Corporation and Dr. Paulo and Alexandra Correa in Canada.This has led to a crisis within a crisis: Neither "cold fusion" nor "Modern Physics" will be able to explain the full range of experimental data now available---not even the data within "mainstream" cold fusion/LENR per se--- by insisting that the fundamental paradigms of Modern Physics are without significant flaw. The present crisis is of magnitude comparable to the Copernican Revolution. Neither Modern Physics nor Cold Fusion/LENR will survive in their present forms when this long delayed revolution has run its course. ________________________________________________________________________ This Email has been scanned for all viruses by Medford Leas I.T.
