That was Blacklight. Not me, please re-examine the PR packet, it explicitly states watts, not watt-hours or joules. A good way to con everyone, and yet be legally sound if it ends up in court. “But your honor, we did make 5MW of power, for 16 picoseconds!”
***All right, this appears to be the heart of your claim. They claim Watts, when most of us hear Watt-hours because we all ASSUME WattHours, especially when they say “continuous output power”. An EE who measures a resistor doesn’t think 5W dissipation means it will dissipate 5W for 15 picoseconds. (DUHH) So, your position is that a guy who’s been selling vaporware for 20 years and has nothing now, would be posting in WATTS, rather than be explicit about WattHours. Then it simply means we have to wait until his demo to see if it’s real or if he’s just playing word games or his PR person has his head up his ass. You can yell “SCAM” all you want, and I can yell “experiments trump theory” and “Let’s See” all I want.
Third, go to mouser. Select a power resistor in 10W and up range.
***Interesting. All the power circuits I’ve deal with were less than 10W. Silicon and/or FR4 tends to melt at certain power densities.
Here’s a power calculator I generated for the industry:

But, next time, try to avoid the bowlsheet of saying that the coal industry sells their crap in Joules per bucket or anything like that. It’s a ridiculous argument. It appears that across the board, from 1W to 1MW, EE’s go into shorthand mode when they say Watts but mean Watt-Hours. But if you think that this means Mouser is shouting “SCAM” by following this shorthand, you’re simply way off.
when I saw ‘watt-hour’ I imagined for a brief instant that Mr.Kevmo actually might know something. Incredulous, I read again then realized he was quoting a reply from someone else.
sigh.
coal industry does sell in joules per bucket although they probably use different units (btu per cubic yard for example)
