Crystal Power CeLL by John Hutchison

[Koen1]

Yes, and I have also noticed the wiki page appears to have been
altered since then, and now only contains this list... 
I seem to recall that back then, there was confusing info on there
about the cells, and more of it too...

Well, I've been looking to buy some Germanium for some time now
but the stuff if hard to come by in powdered form, and expensive as well.
I may revamp my Hutchison cell attempt line when I get that,
so I'll have to keep looking.
In the mean time I am going to continue my line of experiments,
which I still believe are based on the same principles and ideas
as those of JH and Reid for that matter. Reid uses different ingredients
to make his cells, and I am fairly confident I have managed to replicate
some of his cells. In any case, Reid has been more forthcoming and
open to correspondence than Hutchison has been so far.
Since the two cell types have quite different ingredients,
I feel it may not be strictly necessary to use the four (five?) ingredients
named by JH, and that other mixes of the right compounds and elements
may work as well. JH also hints toward that in one of his newsletters,
just remarks "other suitable elements may be substituted" somewhere.
When I finally manage to get some germanium and try some 100%
"Hutch-mix" I will keep you guys posted, of course. 

Anyway, who's going to try the "Hutch-mix"?
Please do post your experiments!

best regards

I see nothing regarding lead (II) sulfide.    In any case, what is your post accomplishing here?  That some of these materials were on an extensive list of possible reagents? Yup.  Did we have primary source confirmation of the details? Nope.

Here is the mp3 of the radio interview.  I ask about the power cells at approx 100 minutes.

*Edit:  Seems like this mp3 is missing the piece where I ask about Ian's reagents.

@ Feynman:

Thanks for the radio interview link.  I just listened to about half of it and....wow....I am disappointed.  I have been a fan of Hutch from way back.....but when he said...."I was e-mailing my friend Paris Hilton and..."  he lost me.  I will listen to the rest of it when I get a chance but, I no longer have the respect for him that I once did. (Not just because of the Paris thing)  I always gave him the benefit of the doubt about his "effect" and maybe there is still something there.  Now I hear about like 3 different ingredients floated about by him for this cell and I have to wonder.  Yes, he has had people/gov. on his case and, as he has said, this is why he is playing it like this.  Maybe true, maybe not.  Anyway, I always like to learn and thank you for posting the link.

Personally, I am convinced John's research is honest.  As for his social things, Hollywood, etc... think of this way:  John wants his own Discovery Channel show.   In my opinion he deserves one.

Let's not tilt at windmills.
