It is worth noting that we cannot label this experiment as evidence of thermal gain.
Alan Goldwater – the experimenter - just posted he is NOT claiming excess heat. This is despite the fact that others seem to be trying to put words in his mouth. AG: “During the testing, just after the highest observed temperature differential (~30 C), I measured the power needed for that amount of increase, and found it to be 70 watts. Based on the input power of 1150 watts, that represents 6.1%, well within the error bands of calorimetry. So I am not claiming any excess heat for this test.” Jones
