When Rossi decided to leave DGT holding the bag by pulling out of the deal, DGT was faced with a forced closure of their operation. Things looked very bleak for DGT. But out of stubborn determination and extreme luck together with the good sense to listen to solid theory and the know how to apply it, they met and eventually vastly exceeded the design of the Rossi reactor.
Via the spark excitation mechanism, DGT first came up with the critical enabling concept of the "Mouse" that pumped the "Cat" architecture which Rossi STOLE. Yes without this ideal at Rossi's disposal, Rossi's blind spot was reactor control and he would still be destroying his reactors through continued and uncontrollable burn up. I doubt that the histories of this relationship will be correctly told. DGT will always be the bad guy and Rossi the saint. But WE all take what we must from others to advance the LENR art, even Rossi; DGT took from Rossi the absolute conviction that the Ni/H reactor was possible to implement and that it was capable of working and Rossi took the Mouse architecture. No matter what Mats Lewan book states in his book, Rossi is no saint.
