It would be nice to become free of the electric power company, but I am afraid that the word soon is relative. If you mean 25 years as soon, maybe so. What are we to do with all that copper strung across the country? I wonder if copper can be used as an active ingredient of an LENR system. So much change in so little time - it makes your head spin!

COP=20, no. I am sure the COP can be set anywhere you like. It is just a matter of ngineering. The Hyperion brochure on p. 18 shows it varying from 25 to 5 for the small unit (11 kW out, 200 W in), and up to 145 for the arger unit. It is not an issue. It never has been. Since 1990 I think it has been lear that cold fusion can have any ratio you like, once you learn how o control it. Swartz talked about optimizing output and so did some thers but most researchers I know have said "once we learn to control t, we can make the ratio will be as high as you like, or infinite (with ero input)." I think Rossi's results show they were right. I assume that a unit used for space heating only would have something ike a thermoelectric device and a storage battery to keep itself going, r to wake itself up. So there would be no waste of external AC power. erhaps early models will depend upon AC power. Soon there will be no uch thing as AC, and no power company. - Jed
