Hagelstein is claiming an unverified 100 mW, and they have not published the results. 100 mW is 1400 times smaller than 140 W. Hagelstein's experiment is shown to students at his course. He said visitors were welcome, but when someone visited and reported back in some forum, all he got to see was a closed tupperware box with wires coming out connected to stuff. Not really a convincing demo. Why doesn't he use the heat to do something really unequivocal, like heating a large volume of water. And if his COP is really 14, why can't he get more nanors, boil water, generate electricity and run the experiment on its own power. Why does a new source of energy still need energy input from the mains?
