I really want to believe it works, but this cloak and dagger stuff is killing me. Anonymous customer, technical glitch preventing it from generating the advertised megawatt, connected power cable? Is it real or not?

Then again, with Starlite we have real videos showing that it withstands at least a torch, yet nobody commercialized the stuff, because the inventor was supposedly too greedy... what a shame.



You would think that anyone with half a brain would have foreseen that not disconnecting the 500KW generator from the set up would look suspicious. But neither the inventor nor the customer had this insight?

It's also very suspicious for the planned 1000KW output to be reduced to the exact output level of the generator.


I don't believe this is real for a second, though I would love it to be. But I wonder why, if it was connected to the grid, did they not just produce the expected 1MW...


I'm sure they did, but being connected to the grid is probably necessary for generating the 500KW.
