Dennis,
You mentioned that Ni nanopowders linger in the air for a long time. Have you tried to use a powerful magnet to attract them out of the air? I wonder if such an arrangement would help keep the air safer for those performing this type of experiment?

I have notbeen too successful with Ni H gas systems. And thatnano Ni leaks through valves, chews up your pumps, clogs your gauges, suspendsin the air for days, and messes with your lungs. (at onetime they diagnosed me with pulmonary hypertension… not good) I might be seeing something sparking at HV but the input measurements are the pits. I do nottrust them. In fact, one reason for trying to get a new potentially largeapplication platform is that I would have to totally redo input measures forsome systems. A conversion -stand alone- and being able to measure dc frombatteries is much easier. In a quicknut shell- I am using Pd with additives (including Th and rare earths) inmesopore C and D2 gas. Think of it as a cross between Les Case's Pd in Cmaterial and Mitch Swartz' Nanor thing, with a twist of B fields and pulsedcurrent excitation.

Can I assume that you have a nickel-hydrogen type arrangement? Dave
