Interesting... just now catching up on all this. How are they getting financing? Is this a public company that is developing this?

A one-day test proves something?

Seriously?

If this were viable technology the test would run for months and it would actually power something and prove there was more energy going out than coming in.

Something is rotten in Denmark.

As far as the legitimacy of the process goes, I fail to see how the customer’s identity adds much.

Personally, I have an idea who a logical customer would be. But I’m not saying.

If the US government was not involved in this somewhere, behind a cut-out or whatever, that would seem to be a potentially lethal omission.

It seems to me that one would not want to be locked out of the technology that could possibly eventually make fossil fuels obsolete as an energy source.

Yeah, and the Wright Brothers should have given up on aviation since their first flight only lasted 12 seconds.

when I was a kid, a new kid showed up at school one day. He convinced me he was building a go-kart, and if I could just give him some parts, it would be his and mine and would be really cool. I don't know how much stuff I gave him, nor how many times he gave me glowing progress reports, before I finally figured out he was full of beans.

He probably grew up to become a stockbroker or something. Or maybe a scientist...

Yeah, but the Wright Brothers didn’t have their biplane suspended by wires.

African Press International will be reporting on it, presently.

You bet it is. The Law of Thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed; as it passes from one for to another energy is reduced (not increased.)

All these energy scams that violate the Law of Thermodynamics are just that - SCAMS.

Fusing elements heavier than iron absorb energy.
Maybe API is too smart to report on this one?

Agreed. This story has more crap piled on top of it than the Orbo BS Steorn tried to pull off...

The odds of this not being a hoax are extremely small, I think. But boy oh boy if it is real, we are looking at the next industrial revolution.

It certainly was the last time I saw it.

One of 3 things going on here.

1. Fraud.
2. He’s Delusional.
3. It’s real.

The Fraud seems the least likely to me. Spending over a year trying to perpetuate a world wide scam? For what? It would all be taken away anyway and he would end up in jail.

So it comes down really to 2 or 3. I hope to God its 3, but its more likely #2. Time will tell.

That particular law was repealed the day the Curie’s discovered radium.

Been a couple of years since I was over at Air and Space but you’re right, it’s suspended by wires from the ceiling.

Good, succinct analysis.
