Andrea Rossi Vindicated? Cold Fusion Takes Another Step Towards Credibility

Vortex1:'Nickel powder 2-4uM and Lithium Aluminum Hydride in a 4 to 1 proportion by volume (approx). A few grams were donated to me for the test by an interested party.'

I would suggest adding alumina in powder form to this mix then sealing whole mix in a sealed copper tube(welded shut on both ends).then oil-bath it or resist-heat it and compare to a dummy.this way would rule out leaks at least(h2 won't go thru copper)use small coppertube and small amounts of mix to minimize damage incase of explosion.(put perspex plastic sheet between the experiment and yourself).I'm getting this idea from a guy called chan from buildaecat.com who did this but used MgH2/nickel/copper/iron powder in a sealed copper tube and claimed excess heat for days on end in his oilbath at around 200degrees c.I've got plenty ideas for other chemical tests but you would have to know your chemistry pretty well in order to chek them out.

@vortex you may even want to try your mix in a sealed copper tube(welded shut on both ends) WITHOUT alumina.just add some copper powder to your mix to bring it to 2 Cu/2 Ni/1 LiAlH volumes.heat it steady,slowly raising temp.

He certainly has his informants/pocket scientists.

So?  Ultimately his decision is still based on looking at crappy information which is pretty much the entire LENR field produces.  His being rich doesn't create information.

Sarkeizen:'His being rich doesn't create information.'

His being rich allows ACCESS to information which you and I have never been exposed to.so a few thousand humans pepper the internet with their small anomalous heats and throw them into a few thousand public journals while he gets to see the other thousand that didn't publish because their overunities were too big or too scary.it makes sense

perhaps we dedicate a thread to this replication work ?

do you have a specific link for  buildaecat.com
