Problems at Defkalion?
| May 19, 2012 | Posted by admin under Brillouin Energy - Robert Godes, Defkalion |
Sterling Allan of Pure Energy Systems Network has apparently carried on some behind-the-scenes communication with Defkalion. In his most recent LENR-to-Market post, he states the following:
Sterling’s Assessment: A group Defkalion is working with wants them to postpone posting data from their tests until August when there is a big conference where they will be making a presentation. The scuttlebutt is that while the third party test results have been positive, there have been indications of instability and inconsistency between tests, which doesn’t speak well for production readiness. They’re still on track as a leader, but not in first position any more. In my opinion, the long delay in posting those test results which were supposed to be forthcoming even as early as during the testing, contrary to their promised early release, is a significant setback.
Saying that the results are positive, would seem to be a positive spin. It would seem to be more accurate to state that the results were mixed. To speculate, it seems likely they were showing pretty good excess heat measurements, but they have difficulty with sustaining the reaction and that excess heat is produced at inconsistent levels. This would seem to confirm Robert Godes prediction that both Defkalion and Rossi would have trouble with regulating their reactions in a steady-state way and trouble with turning the reactions on and off.
If Godes is correct in his understanding of regulating the process, perhaps Defkalion would do well to license the intellectual property for controlling the reaction from Godes rather than attempting to develop better regulation processes on their own. The fact that it has taken Godes 10 years to perfect the process would suggest that Defkalion could encounter significant problems getting to the point of producing a commercial product within a reasonable time frame. It is a concern that they seem to be moving forward so quickly with attempting to commercialize a process that has significant concerns in pre-prototype form. A big concern is that they will overextend themselves financially with factories and many employees, but no stable product to produce.

Robert Godes has no product either.
“He has spent 10 years to perfect the process”?
What process?
What product has he sold?
Where could you buy one?
The process of regulating the reaction and starting/stopping it. You have a valid point that nobody has a product on the market yet.
What reaction?
If only he knows about it and the people who work for him
then who else knows if it exists?
Better stated:
Robert Godes claims he has a LENR (CF) reaction.
Robert Godes claims to be able to start and stop the reaction.
Yes, “claims” would be more accurate at this point. He does also claim third party validation (i.e., Michael McKubre of SRI and a researcher from Los Alamos) if I recall correctly.
