Brilliant Light Power Demonstration, June 28th 2016

a reply to: AnarchoCapitalist

Mills is planning to have a production ready prototype Q1 2017 and possibly enter full production with units for sale by the end of 2017.

Great news.

They are on track to deploy 100 kilowatt commercial power generators in the first half of 2017,

Again.

You forgot something in amongst all of that.

It doesn't work.

Why, after 25 YEARS and over $60 MOLLION, is there absolutely nothing, NOTHING, in our homes, cars, factories or anywhere else?

Do they need another $60 MILLION?

I say the same thing about the Tokamak, only in their case it's 14 billion rather than 60 million.

Latest test from brilliant light.

Sustained megawatt output without any electrode melting. 99% of the emissions are in invisible UV, so what you're seeing is just 1% of the actual output. Total input power of about 8 kW. This is a test run using production spec refractory materials designed to last indefinitely. Given that there are no moving parts, the system should run continuously without maintenance for years.

You know whats odd mate? You're not stupid. You are articulate and seem fairly well edumacated...and yet, you show us videos like this. What is this showing us? A bright light? Nothing else other than a bright light? NOTHING ELSE?

With all due respect, do you think we are dumb? Maybe im dumb. Sure, ok, im not the smartest. But im smart enough to realise these videos you keep posting are worthless.

So, with all due respect, either you are taking us for fools (my opinion) or you are a fool for buying into videos of bright lights.

if hes going into production in Q1 of 2017 then he must have a working model. Why is he not running his house on this?

I guess its alright if you are having fun at our expense by posting trash like this since we are clearly having fun at yours and mills' expense.

You're right, I'm not dumb.

I took the time to do my homework.

I've been saying brilliant light was on to something 10 years ago, when Rowan did a validation study on their proof of concept findings. Since then, numerous other universities have done studies all showing the same positive results. I've linked those studies in this post already.

I said Mills is planning to have a PROTOTYPE generator ready Q1 and MAY have production models ready to for sale by the end of 2017. Given the progress in this video, it wouldn't surprise me if he had a working prototype to demo by Christmas.

OK. But you didnt answer my question really. You say that progress is being shown in this video. Fine. Can you tells two things:


- What progress exactly is being SHOWN.
- Why shoudl we believe this video which to the rest of us, just shows bright lights.

Can you at least acknowledge that to us, thats all this video is showing. Bright light.

The generator was creating so much power that it was blowing holes through inch thick tungsten electrodes. It could only run for a few seconds before blasting a hole through them. They were also having problems maintaining an even detonation of the catalyst. This was just a quick demo to show they solved both those problems.

Those problems were the last difficult technical challenges that needed to be solved before they could start assembling a generator around the reaction chamber. The remaining engineering tasks are fairly trivial, involving construction of the cooling grid, creating and mounting the solar concentrator cell dome, power management, etc.. etc..

The next video BLP releases may very well be of a fully functional prototype self-sustaining generator.

Or not.

Now excitedly anticipating the end of 2017.
*sigh*

Come "late 2017" it'll be placed back to 2018, 2019, 2020 ad nauseum.

a reply to: GetHyped

No way.
Just look at the progress they've made. They've hardly fallen behind schedule at all.

Really. Just need a bit of investment capital and they're good. Really.

But they've got YouTube videos! YOUTUBE VIDEOS!!

It will be fun ramming Mills theory down everyone's throats after his generator starts dominating the energy market.

Not much room will be left to deny the power of his theory at that point.

I anticipate everyone working in the material sciences will switch over to using his modeling software, while the remaining theoreticians will stamp their feet and wail as their federal funding gets pulled.

a reply to: AnarchoCapitalist

And how many more decades of "it's almost ready" will people put up with before EVERYONE says it's bunk?

25 years (and over $60 MILLION) of "it's almost ready" and, surprise surprise, it STILL DOESN'T WORK.

You mean next year? No, wait. Something tells me BLP will declare it the following year, again.

If they ever get it to work. Surely 25 years is long enough for a proof of concept, at least. That's STILL something that hasn't been done. I wonder why.

I wouldn't hold your breathe.

Are we supposed to just take your word for all that?

As that will never happen, you will not be ramming Mills lies down anyone's throat!

I anticipate in 10 years time Mills will be claiming his "production model" will be ready real soon now"!

And the gullible will still be pushing and believing his crap.

There are millions of scientists all around the world as well as trillions to be made from this device (if it was real)...are you seriously suggesting every single one of those scientists are currently against this machine and that mills is not interested in becoming the richest man alive ?
Just to reiterate...this device would make him richer than gates, musk, bezos etc combined

And yet he's saying nahhhh...not for me.

I'm sure most people know it's bunk by now

Yeah. Most people do, but there are the rest who keep pushing it and their favourite phrase "it's almost ready".

Compared to the ITER, MIlls progress has been light years faster at a micro-fraction of the cost.

Mills reached over-unity in 2007, and went from concept to functional reactor within 9 years. All he has left to do is assemble the generator.

en.wikipedia.org...

ITER began in 1985...Conceptual and engineering design phases carried out under the auspices of the IAEA led to an acceptable, detailed design in 2001, underpinned by US$650 million worth of research and development by the "ITER Parties" to establish its practical feasibility.

In 2013, the project had run into many delays and budget overruns. The facility is not expected to begin operations at the schedule initially anticipated... Construction of the ITER Tokamak complex started in 2013 and the building costs are now over US$14 billion as of June 2015.

Surprised no one asked about:
"They were also having problems maintaining an even detonation of the catalyst."

Why would one detonate the catalyst? Catalysts facilitate reactions without being consumed by the reaction themselves.
