Well, we are testing the theory that Randy is proposing. In that theory, the
water should split to H atoms which would then undergo a hydrino transition in
the presence of a catalyst (the wire in Jack' case; powder in Mill's case).
This is what we are ruling out.
Can you explain the origin of the more intense spark in the presence of a thin
film of water. You're argument of impedance change is valid; though I tend to
think it is irrelevant given the small change a thin film of water would
contribute.

It is the initial contact point that I am thinking about Jojo. The water in
that immediate path should rapidly turn into gas or plasma due to the energy
deposited into it. If the water does not matter then why would we expect it to
contribute to the spark? I suppose the real question is how thick is the film
of water and how does it affect the voltage/current waveforms across the large
contactors?
I believe that it will take a very good voltage and current measurement
system to get to the bottom of this issue.

Dave,
A very thin film of water on a piece of wire should not change the impedance
that much. Certainly not explain the clearly more intense light output. There
appears to be something going on here.
Jack, it might help if you measured the temperature and humidity as you are
performing the tests.
The output power can be measured with a small solar panel.
That leaves the input power. Any ideas on how to measure input power? Other
than a watthour meter, I'm out. Although I doubt a common watthour meter would
be sensitive enough. Another option is an oscilloscope on the electrodes.

Interesting results Jack. Could it be that with copper only the
conductivity of the path is so low that the voltage is nearly shorted out at
the pellet? This excellent short might prevent the voltage from rising enough
thereby keeping the power and energy into the pellet at a low value.
A water film by contrast has much more impedance than copper and that will
result in a voltage increase and hence more energy being delivered. What I am
describing is related to the concept of matching the source impedance to get
the maximum power from the source. In that case an open or short will have
zero power delivered. You may have a near zero condition with copper only and
a much better power match with the water film.

It was with a tiny piece of copper wire that I dipped in water and put
between the electrodes. The amount of water is minuscule (the amount that
managed to adhere to the metal). You don't get that without the water.

Hi Folks,
I was excited to receive my spot welder today. After ensuring it was
in working order, I decided to get right to it and see if I could get anything
like what BLP showed. Lo and behold I got something on the first try.
I remembered Mills talking about all the different possibilities for
types of conductors that they might use in the commercial device, and copper
was one of them. I cut a very small piece of copper wire, dipped it in water,
placed it on the electrodes, hit the switch, and pop with some bright light!
Here's a link to the vid. Sorry for the bad camera work.
Let me know what you think. I'll do another vid soon in complete
darkness.
