That was his somewhat arbitrary definition of self-sustaining, during his talk. However, Levi et al. mentioned that the machine self-sustained completely, with no power, for about 15 minutes. No power and no way to turn it off. They exhausted the hydrogen, filled it with nitrogen, and turned up the cooling water flow. My impression is that it was somewhat out of control. I would not want to try to scale a machine that does that to 1 MW in the near future. - Jed
