Add a little powdered Uranium and some lead cladding and you have your own little Fusion Reactor!
(Not certain if E IN would be >E OUT and whether the Atomic Energy Agency would provide the necessary research permitting for a commercial in-home microwave fusion reactor!)

Kind of have doubts about your magnetic containment levitating the grape?
The plasma, no problem, the grape???
And typically the energy demands of your tokamak exceed any gains.
Word is, you can use that electric meter for a meat slicer!!!

Might be better off with ‘cold fusion’?
Or maybe a Mr Fusion?

What irks me aout this bit of news is that we did this kinda stuff back in the day and didn’t get a thin dime’s worth of grant money for it !
grrrrr
For nothing more than a little beer money, we’d have been happy to share our findings with the world !

I may need to sulk about this for an hour or two . . .
