But the output duration will be very short. .... Just very careful wording of a press release
***Then we’ll wait & see on the demo date. If Mills is engaged in this much duplicity, it means he can’t produce results and others are surpassing him. It’s sometimes hard to discern the difference between a skilled PR razmatazz artist and someone who doesn’t know the difference between a pulse and continuous output power. I’ve dealt with enough PR people to know the latter is far, far more common.
Yup, I'm a retired electronic tech and the 1 cubic foot thing kind of jumped out at me.
In it, he appears not to know that coal can be used to generate electricity.
***What a yet another bunch of horse manure. Why we can’t get you skeptopaths to simply argue the science behind the claims is a mystery. It’s a straw argument, and by now, it’s so far away from your claim that such a thing “screams” SCAM that this thing is barely even “whispering” scam.
Thank you Fred. i have enjoyed reading this!
Mr. Kevmo, you never did demonstrate that you know the difference between a watt and a joule. As a degreed (two!) electrical engineer I am qualified to debunk this nonsense. Be so kind as to answer some questions:
A 100 watt light bulb is operated for one hour at 120 V AC
1) What was the current?
2) What is the bulb’s resistance
3) How much energy was consumed?
He seems to be unaware that on some times scales, a “pulse” can be quite a long time.
***And yet, it usually isn’t. So that means that your entire point RESTS on a “pulse” being “quite a long time”. I posted my hypothetical to you about the difference between power density over 20,000 minutes vs. 2 minutes, and you seem to be unaware of simple power density. So, how many grad level scientists can’t make a power density calculation but insist on long term “pulse” when they argue something? Maybe, just maybe, only one: IF you have a grad physics degree, which I doubt.
Kevmo lacks a high school-level understanding of basic physics and electricity. His type god weeded out in the first semester of physics of calculus.
It makes for amusing reading though!
He seems baffled by the idea that when Dr. Emmett Brown dumps a banana peel into his Mr. Fusion generator and produces 1.21 gigawatts for 1 nanosecond, he’s only actually generated 1 Joule.
***Nope. I understand it. See below for an example that blows your Straw argument back to your 6th grade horse manure class. You don’t seem to know the difference between pulsed power and continuous output power.

kevmo back up a bit on this ‘power density’.
tell us first what is a watt and what is a joule.. if you can’t anwer that you’ve got no business installing batteries in flashlights let alone lecturing knowledgable people on power generation.
He then seems to think that EE’s and other practitioners are unaware of the difference between power and energy, and would never speak of the energy dissipated in a resistor operating over some time period.
***Wait, whut? EE’s talk about a resistor operating for YEARS. Is that how long your supposed “pulse” lasts? Geez, you’re a loon.
kook
he ignorance on display is so colossal, so huge, so incredibly eyeball glazingly enormous that I’m beginning to believe that Kevmo himself must be operating on — LENR.
***Well, now. I just posted a few things that show your ignorance to be “so colossal, so huge, so incredibly eyeball glazingly enormous” that FReepers should be doubting your claim to have a postgrad physics degree, let alone passing freshman level critical thinking courses.
Kevmo the expert is suddenly quiet when asked to explain watts and joules.
Can you explain the units of what you call power density for us in Kevmo units?
Also, SI would be nice too.
And of course by LENR, I mean what most scientists think of when they hear that acronym.
***Redefinition of terms. I thought that “most scientists” don’t even acknowledge that LENR is “real”?
By the way, with regards to the instant thread, here is an interesting quote from Hanno Essen [famed verifier but not really verifier of the E-Cat]
Essén: Yes, they mention, for example a man called Randell Mills, who has been working a long time with something he tried to get funded. I do not believe in it at all. His website doesn’t convince me. And hydrino would be that the hydrogen atom would collapse and release energy whereby the electron should get closer to the nucleus. It completely contradicts the uncertainty principle. So I don’t believe in that at all.
***Where is the contradiction at this point? Essen is doubting a THEORY while verifying MEASUREMENTS. Rossi has his own pet theory, which he has yet to publish, but it will likely be close to the electron-capture theory based upon monitoring his posts. But... yet again... we wouldn’t expect FraudZarguna to be aware of it. And also, yet again, we find FZ posting yet again another logical fallacy, comparing the apples of theory to the oranges of Measured Results. By this time, Rossi has had more time on point with working reactors (assuming he aint a fraud) and so he’s had far more time to test his theories than others.
So, you may dispute that your hero Hanno Essen has a PhD as well, but, sadly he doesn’t believe in the hydrino, either...
***And a big SO WHAT to that. All these guys have their own pet theories. That doesn’t seem to stop you from posting logical fallacies right and left.
haha! kevmo threads rock! I feel a little guily though, like playing ‘keep away’ with a slow kid
“***Wait, whut? EE’s talk about a resistor operating for YEARS. Is that how long your supposed “pulse” lasts? Geez, you’re a loon.”
Oy! That pretty much explains his knowledge failure, right there in that one sentence.
I gave you an example: motor braking. A power resistor has to dissipate the total mechanical energy of a system during breaking operations. We don’t measure the mechanical system’s stored energy in watts, because watts isn’t energy. Nope, instead, we use this other unit, called the Joule, which describes energy.
Kevmo, I am thinking of installing solar. Although I am a degreed (two!) electrical engineer, I want to seek your expertise.
For the storage batteries, I want something with a high power density, right? I should not be concerned with amp-hours, right?
cmon man, power density is kevmos per cubic meter. knucklehead!
I know, I have to go to bed soon, so I am leaving the fun house. You guys enjoy attempting to educate Kevmo on basic physics. As Dave Ramsey says, try to have the heart of a teacher :)
capacitance is now defined as one kevmo per volt-coulomb
