Yes I have read that. But first I plan to try to duplicate the 1998
Focardi cell as closely as I can. I have emailed Focardi and asked for
the dimensions of the cell and construction material and informed him I
plan to replicate. I'm just a power system engineer and not a
physicists, so I do hope he replies. If not I'll guess at the rod
dimensions, see what I can get that is close and work from there.
After that I will try fine / nano Ni powder baked at 500 deg C in a hard
vacuum as Rossi and other have suggested, that is if I can find someone
to do that as my workshop / lab can't do that kind of high temperature
processing.
Any suggestions for a source of nano Ni powder?

Rossi's largest contribution to improving on the Piantelli-Focardi work, may
have been his suggestion at using nano-nickel. The increased surface area, and
available crystalline lattice has been garnering a lot of attention. Variations
in particle size and, possibly more importantly, surface typography may come
into play.
Even when it comes to Pd cathodes, in other LENR experiments, surface
preparation seems a key variable in successful replication.
Just something to think about
