The device is supposed to turn Hydrogen and Nickel into Copper.

Do the math: Hydrogen atomic number 1, atomic weight 1.00794
Nickel AN 28, AW 58.6934
Copper AN 29, AW 63.546

Doesn't add up. The only feasible reaction would yield Cu-59, which is radioactive and simply decays back into nickel.

Here’s one theory how it happens

Without a direct answer to your question in post#56, this seems like a continuation of a decades-long delusion on the subject of cold fusion.

If you ever get an answer, please ping me.

Thanks.

You’re over thinking it. A hydrogen atom is one proton and one electron. Add a proton and an electron to nickel, and you OBVIOUSLY get copper. The question is how much useable heat is released, if any...and how much energy is consumed to instigate the process, and how much energy input is required to maintain the process...and how accurate the measurements of this guys super secret experiment.
