IF the device can be operated continuously, why has it not been?
***That is a presumption on your part, and the demo on Jan 28 will bear things out one way or another.
This is why your ridiculous fallback to the claim that “running the ‘reactor’ for 20,000 seconds is a ‘hypothetical’” is so lame.
***Bullshit. It is a simple hypothetical calculation that you can’t seem to do. Here, I’ll handhold for you, walk you through with baby steps on a very simple hypothetical. Let’s start with “what is 1Watt + 1Watt”?
Real generators are supposed to run all the time. That’s why — for a real generator — the difference between a KWH and a KW or a KWs and a KW or a KWY and a KW DON’T MATTER.
***Yawn. Look back upthread to see where this isn’t even an issue.
Because in a typical year, a real generator or reactor will be running all year except for [possibly] short maintenance periods.
***POTO
For this device the distinction matters because the “inventor” has never produced the slightest proof [and his own bloviating assurances aren’t proof] that his machine can produce power for any significant length of time,
***His demo is scheduled for Jan 28, so your own bloviating against this is basically an argument from silence, the silence of the future. The thing about that particular logical fallacy is that, even if you turn out to be right about what happens in the future by a precipitating event, your argument itself was INVALID at the time. Because you don’t know the future. Otherwise you could tell me the score of the next super bowl and the next world series. You won’t because you can’t, and arguing from the future is a logical fallacy... Duhh.
and why, in this case, quoting “wattage” is part of his con. Absent sustained capability, we are left with the suspicion that he’s simply charging capacitors or some other smoke-and-mirrors gimmick that isn’t doing anything more than storing the power from the wall for an “impressive” discharge.
***Well, then, we shall see. What’s weird is that when sustained capability HAS been demonstrated by another inventor, the skeptopaths still don’t believe it because the guy isn’t giving out his secret for free.
His "demo" will mean nothing more than a trick by David Copperfield or Harry Blackstone if he does not give competent scientists full access to his device while it is disconnected from the grid.
That "demonstration" you are never going to see.
