A Perspective On The B Type EESD - Robert Murray-Smith - Any issues?

[Nink]

RMS is on Zerofossilfuel  at 3pm eastern time today with an open Q&A.   should be interesting.

I am going to close the loop on Robert Murray-Smith.  Much to my surprise he made a clip about me on his YouTube channel alleging that I am a troll:

"On User2718218 A Troll And What To Do About Him"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrvRAjq3h1g

Here is my response that was posted on his clip that nobody could see:

So I watched the clip Robert and it's a fake sales pitch alleging that I
am a troll.  I will explain why, but you know the reason why already. 
Every contact that I made with you was about the technical merits, or
lack of merits, in the few clips of yours that I engaged with you on. 
You made some clips stating that you made these huge home-brew
supercapacitors with allegedly insanely high energy densities but you
offered up NO CREDIBLE MEASUREMENTS.  You risked damaging one of your
supercapacitors by shorting it to a voltage source that was much higher
than the breakdown of your capacitor like a rank amateur and I told you
that for your own good.  And then finally we have the two infamous
clips, where in one of them YOU MEASURE THE CURRENT BUT YOU DO NOT
MEASURE THE VOLTAGE WHICH IS INSANE.  In the other one you make a
ridiculously inaccurate measurement of the active ingredient in the
Lithium battery by being at the absolute bottom of the range of the
digital scale.

And what have you had to say about my technical
comments?  NOTHING, you ignored them because you have NO TECHNICAL
REBUTTAL.  All that you could do was insult me like a chav.  In that
sense, YOU are the troll, and you still INTENTIONALLY IGNORE the
technical stuff because I am bloody well right about the technical stuff
and you know it.  Your clip about me is a fake sales pitch because I
exposed your technical junk that anybody with a decent understanding of
tech would recognize as JUNK.

His clip alleging that I am a troll is junk.  Every time I engaged with him it was about him demonstrating bad electronics practices, or making grossly inaccurate measurements and arriving at false conclusions.  The worst engagement with him was when Robert made a ridiculous measurement mistake that an educated 12-year-old doing a science fair project would not make.  How can a fully grown man with a PhD make a mistake measuring the energy in a capacitor that an enthusiastic 12-year-old would not make?

Just one more noteworthy thing.  Robert has a PhD.  He wrote his PHD Thesis Titled: Dynamic simulations of carbons and carbon composite materials at Southhampton University in 1989.  I am assuming that we are supposed to assume that he has a scientific background and education?

Look at this tidbit from the YouTube comments on his clip about me:

There is some speculation about my YouTube handle in the comments, "User2718218," and Robert has no idea where it may have come from, then this:

<<<
Joel Bondurant:  eulers number e, the base of the natural logarithm is 2.718281828459045...
Robert Murray-Smith:  well there we go - that's where he got it
>>>

So are we supposed to assume that RMS is a "big science guy with a PhD" and yet he doesn't even recognize a number that is very close to Euler's number, which is the base of the natural logarithm!!!  The number "e" is used in science and engineering all the time and you simply can not live without that number.  HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT ROBERT MURRAY-SMITH DID NOT KNOW THIS?   Does anybody smell something fishy?

I would have to say RMS is correct--you are a troll MH.
You troll peoples work and videos,until you find something you think is incorrect. You then go out of your way to make a big song and dance about it--even though it has nothing what so ever to do with you.

RMS is far more successful  than you have ever been,and his latest venture (the Edison electric car)just proves he knows his stuff.

So that is you MH, you are actually a troll. We have seen you act in such a manor in countless threads on this forum-time and time again,and not once have you lifted a finger to show any type of experimenting  your self.

So that is what you do--you browse  through other peoples work, looking for your chance to pounce.
This is trolling MH--you are a troll.

Brad:

You are FOS, 100%.  You are still in a state of shock because you have been given the real deal by me and it has therefore slanted what you say about me.  On the Joule Thief thread you almost went nuts because of it.

You can't deal with what I say above, and the ironic twist is when I first mentioned to you that RMS did something unbelievable you agreed with me - he discharged a capacitor and measured the current but did not measure the voltage to measure the so-called "energy" in the capacitor.   You agreed with me that that was ridiculous and went and posted on his YouTube clip to that effect.

I am no troll, and there is no such thing as the "Edison Electric car," by Edison Power and Sunvault Energy, it's preposterous nonsense.  You clearly don't know how to qualify a company, and I do.

http://www.sunvaultenergy.com/sunvault-energy-and-edison-power-company-to-build-electric-supercar/

The car is expected to be ready by the first quarter of 2016 and is expected to do zero to sixty in 2.0 to 2.2 seconds and be rechargeable in 5 minutes

My ass, it's total horseshit, just like what you are saying about me is total horseshit.

So you need to get over the chip on your shoulder and if this is your hobby, then work at it.  You have learned more about electronics in the past three months than you learned in the past six years and you damn well know it.  And I am one of the primary reasons for that happening.
