Pd seems to work at lower temps than Ni work. (lower Ef).
Many people have observed that lately. It is important. It
may explain why most early attempts to replicate Mills failed. It would
explain why an electrochemical Ni experiment will probably not work.
Good point. There is probably another factor, in addition to benefiting from
higher temps than necessary (i.e. where one should logically think the extra
heat would be counterproductive) - that has made Mills results elusive to
replicators ... ...and this same scenario may also hint at why an experimenter (HUD group ?) using nichrome as the control has had difficulty. Let's say it is for testing Celani's constantan wire; and showing no apparent gain compared to the control. In fact the nichrome is active due to nickel content - and being resistance wire could be rendered even more active with the heat. Both wires could be gainful.
