I have seen several of them where little care was given to the placement of the microphone, making it difficult to understand what was being said, let alone adding music to compound the issue. >Hi Robin. > >The YouTube video has CC closed captions / subtitles. please enable them.

In reply to Jed Rothwell's message of Thu, 20 Jun 2024 14:42:23 -0400: Hi Jed, Thanks for providing a clear and concise summary. If Hydrogen is used as the fuel, then it has to be produced, so how much energy is produced / atom of Hydrogen consumed? (I consider this to be the true measure of utility.)

Granted, the reactor has to be heated to ~800°C or it does nothing. No doubt that takes external electricity in this experiment. But in a practical insulated reactor, it would self-heat. After it reached the operating temperature of ~800°C you could turn off the external heater. 10 W from 20 g of material is excellent performance for an experiment. It is easy to measure. The calorimeter precision is ~0.2 W. 800°C would give excellent Carnot efficiency. However this is still far below the power per gram from something like a fission reactor pellet, which is 180 W/12 g (1 cubic centimeter).
