Joshua, Please take a careful look at the modulated output power that we discussed the other day. You will notice a strong correlation between the input power as registered on the power meter and the shape of the output power.
It is evident that the output power is rising for the same amount of time as the input is applied. After the input is removed, the output power begins to drift downward during the entire time that the input power meter reads zero. There is only a slight time delay visible between the transitions. Why would you suggest that the power duty cycle might be much larger during this test with the obvious picture evidence pointing otherwise? I was beginning to think that you were being objective by your response to the thermal camera issue and I had a hope that you would carry forth with this newly found impartiality. Is it difficult for you to agree with obvious evidence if it does not match your theory of the world? The cheese power trick would not behave in the manner seen and you are well aware of this so why not come clean even if it does not make your friends happy? Try to be honest with your assessments and your inputs to this list will be respected. Can we count on you to be objective?

Yes, it's the cheese power videos. I have a theory too, but the point is, many people without a theory would still not believe that the cheese actually supplies the power. And such people could nevertheless design an experiment that excludes tricks. So, it's not necessary to know how Rossi may be tricking the meter to be skeptical of the Ni-H claim. It's only necessary to know that it's not excluded. And a frequency limited ac meter certainly does not exclude input power that exceeds the meter readings. Apparently, the meter indicated zero current during the off-portion of the cycle. Using the method of the cheese power, there could have been nearly full power then, wiping out the COP, which just happens to be the reciprocal of the duty cycle. Now, the temperature does respond to the on/off cycle, so there is some modulation of the power, but it could be a fraction of the total power, so the average is still near the full power.

If so, I've seen them, and I have a theory about how they're done. Should I give that out?

What "simple deception" are you describing? DC, RF or hidden wire in the cable? Something else?

For if you can, then you've reduced COP to unity. No, I never thought that for the March experiment (where the COP was 3), where they measure the emissivity. In that experiment, a pretty simple deception illustrated in the videos I posted can explain the alleged COP. I was more suspicious of the December experiment, where they did not measure the emissivity, but those suspicions have been largely allayed by Pekka's calculations, and my subsequent similar calculations. Only the non-grey body considerations may have an effect, but it's a very long shot.
