To me it looks like the hand waving is largely from the skeptics. I
have yet to see a specific item that is wrong in Mills theories
highlighted by them.
Rossi had it right years ago when he stated the skeptics will never
believe an experiment but only the sale of working commercial units.

But in that case I wonder why they would publish the several volumes
of hand waving. Is it because these books seem impressive to some
people, who are unable to really assess the many pages of equations
on their own?
It could well be more a case of an arrogant "genius" inventor who
thinks a guaranteed way to win a Nobel prize is to produce an
earth-shaking theory that ditches parts of QM, to explain anomalous
energy producing experiments. He may have had a modest amount of real
gain for a long time, in less than ideal form. The more hand-waving
the better, to cover up the shortfall. Sound familiar?
So far, Mills has come close to the goal of having it all, and would
probably have succeeded had he embraced the Thermacore work... way
back then - especially if Chuck Haldeman had been allowed to publish.
Too bad he could not bring himself to share the honors with others,
since he is probably further away today from the big prize than in
1995, even if the SunCell is gainful. Thermacore had solid gains of at
least 150% over input, but that was not enough, apparently. Since
then, Mills has alienated many scientists, seeing them all as jealous
competitors.
Dufour and Mayer and others like Holmlid and Meulenberg may have saved
the day for Ni-H ... in both theory and experiment, but their work
contradicts Mills in important ways. Mills may be intellectually
superior to any one of them alone, but may fail miserably in the end
-- since he is locked into a fundamental error which they dodged.
You can look up the reviews of his Millsian software package and see
why that too has been a huge disappointment.
