Try Occam's Razor, the most straightforward explanation In an attempt to evade what Mills has written in his postings. Mills will use commercial equipment to avoid R&D costs. Commercial arc welders are overkill but will reliably deliver high current pulses, which you can measure to determine what is actually needed in a commercial embodiment. A no-brainer. Observers will conjecture all manner of chemical pyrotechnics to 'explain' the flashes and sparks. The low voltage, nigh current output of an arc welder will make sparks, but nothing like the brilliant display seen the videos. The detonations last 0.5 ms, presumably the powder becomes non-conductive at that point . Am sure that Mills has documented what happens but has not chosen to publish such, since it affects the design of a commercial configuration.
Nowhere is titanium, or magnesium powder mentioned. Spectrogams of the plasma are given to compared with sunlight. In the case of the sun, there is blackbody radiation from the glowing mass of the sun, plus a higher temperature spectrum from the corona, a long-standing astronomical puzzle. The basic hydrino transition spectrum is I the soft x-ray region which can ionize air, producing a spectrum like the sun's corona, as published. Arc welders commonly flood t ears wit argon, a cheap inert gas, to avoid oxidation of the metal before it cools. Ionized argon has served as a catalyst in earlier gas phase experiments, but it plays no part in the SunCell. A critique such as SVJ presents is in the service of responsible science: one search out alternative explanations for observations before accepting GUTCP.

I believe BLP has been using something akin to industrial arc welders for some of the demonstrations they videoed last June 25. However BLP seems to be using the units in an unusual power configuration. On page 57 of the PDF file we see: Ignition current: 10,000 A to 20,000 A Ignition voltage: 4.5 V - 15 V System Peak Input Power: 45 kW - 450 kW While the wattage appears high, (in the kilowatt range), it appears to be due to an extremely high current load, but very low pressure. BLP seems to be loading the fuel mixture with a massive amount of electrons, but very little voltage is used. I get the impression that most industrial arc welders are not used in such a configuration. Personally, I don't know what to make of the BLP power load. I've asked "the Doctor" if he might help clarify (or show) spectral graphs of burning Titanium powder for comparison against the BLP "SunCell" reaction. One other thing, Mills recently responded to another question concerning different gaseous environments used to ignite the powder catalyst: In one of the videos it is run under argon The will likely be the cover gas in a commercial unit That would suggest to me that a "triggered" portion of Titanium powder mixture would not be capable of oxidizing since the enclosure would be totally immersed within an inert gas mixture. One presumes that high amounts of heat, light, UV, and soft X-Rays (but very little expansion compression) is produced. Regards, Steven Vincent Johnson svjart.orionworks.com zazzle.com/orionworks
