WL also predict an increase in surface conductivity (decrease in resistance) :
The number density of heavy electrons on a metallic hydride surface is of the
order of the number density of surface hydrogen atoms when there is a proton or
deuteron flux moving through the surface and LENR are being neutron catalyzed.
**** These added heavy electrons produce an anomalously high surface electrical
conductivity at the LENR threshold. *** See Celani's recent stuff: Re:
[Vo]:Celani to announce a possible marker of anomalous heat production in LENR

Exactly, and more importantly that this phenomenon appears to be correlated
with anomalous heat production (ie successful LENR experiments), so potentially
materials/samples showing a more pronounced transition from a positive to
negative temperature coefficient of resistance with hydrogen loading are the
best ones. If confirmed, this would be a significant step forward towards
excess heat reproducibility. > and in a separate paper (which I hadn't looked
