The data is in NyTeknik and LENR-CANR.org.
If you do not trust Levi et al. to report the results of the flow
test honestly and accurately, then you cannot trust them to report
any results, or to conduct a test without cheating. It would be
very easy to make a fake test with a hidden wire. It would be even
easier to pretend they have done a test and to publish fake data.
If you do not believe that Levi et al. are credible, honest
scientists you should dismiss all of these claims. You need only
say "I don't believe them." The discussion ends there. Nothing more
can be said, or needs to be said.
If your standard is that we can only trust "public tests" then you
can throw out the whole of cold fusion and the rest of modern
science, because public tests are rare and they seldom prove anything.

What you say might be true if the public tests were reasonably well
done. They weren't. There is thus no reason to believe closed door
results were done any more competently unless sufficient information
is published to make that determination.
What are the URLs? I was under the impression the details of the non-
boiling flowing water test were kept confidential.
