2. Overview
The "Celani Cell" seems to be the most understandable and replicable LENR
demonstration to date.
Our Goal is to validate the science of LENR and promote widespread,
standardized, replications around the world.
The steps towards that end are:
● Step 1: Build Apparatus (In Progress)
● Step 2: Initial Calibration (In Progress)
● Step 3: Initial Replication (In Progress in Conjunction with Celani)
● Step 4: Facilitate Widespread Replication Effort
○ Start with key research institutions around the world
○ Then, offer replication kits to the world

3. Intro
Getting this effect validated is extremely timely
● Rossi has raised a lot of interest and hope
● Rossi still has not done anything to conclusively demonstrate he can create
the effect, leaving the skeptics strong
● If Rossi, Defkalion are revealed to be scams, then the whole field could be
shut down again.
● At this moment there is a lot of interest and a better network to tap into than
ever before to help get this started.
We need to seize the opportunity to get this effect proven to the world.
To help make it irrefutable, the experiment, the procedures and the
organization must all be as transparent and understandable as possible

7. Step 1: Build Apparatus
Must be clearly understandable
Like Francesco Celani's original, this apparatus must be easily understood and
open to scrutiny at all levels
● Clear quartz tube for visual inspection
● Easily traced wires and connections
● Openly publish the engineering drawings
● Hunt Utilities Group is even willing to provide power supply, instrumentation
package and release the hardware and software to the public domain as an
open source project
Must be safe
● Well engineered to handle a rated pressure and temperature
○ Design to achieve 7 Bar, 300°C with appropriate safety factors
● Include a safety shield - 4.75 mm clear polycarbonate
● Pressure and temperature cycle each unit to ensure it meets design spec
● Include Gamma-Scout Geiger-Müller counter connected to a computer to
monitor and log alpha, beta and gamma radiations

8. Design and Prototype - Cell

9. Design and Prototype -
Safety Shield

10. Design and Prototype -
Instrumentation Package
• Still a first prototype, improvements are planned
• Engineered for maximum clarity on wiring and
connections.
• Switches for power out to each element wire
• Computer controlled power option
• Will ship with a laptop pre-configured for data
collection and uploading to global data site

11. Step 2: Initial Calibration
Make 2 copies of initial apparatus
● Send one to team members in Europe - Nicolas and Mathieu
● Keep one at Hunt Utilities Group - Resilient Living Research Campus
Characterize thermally
● Load with standard NiChrome wire
● Perform initial power vs equilibrium temperature
calibrations
○ Various pressures of Helium and Hydrogen gas
● Take thermal camera images of the glass surface
to estimate validity of thermal radiation heat estimate

12. Initial Calibration: In Process
Initial commissioning and calibration of first prototype is in process

13. Step 3: Initial Replication
Critical goals:
● Conclusively prove to us that the effect is replicable with different samples
of wire and attainable in our apparatus
● Develop a specific written procedure for other investigators to use in order
to exactly replicate the experiment and findings
● Test the procedure in near real time via video connection and near
simultaneous replication by Ryan in USA
Procedure:
● Arrange to ship length of Celani Wire to Ryan in USA (on going)
● Nicolas and Mathieu bring apparatus to Celani
● Keep a video conference connection open to Ryan & Bob
● Possibly verify calibration of power vs temperature
● Replace one NiChrome wire with Celani's wire
● Load with Hydrogen
● ...record procedure

14. Step 4: Facilitate Massive
Replication Effort
Goal: Orchestrate a large number of exact experimental replications that
unambiguously show excess heat.
● Survey all ICCF17 attendees for replication experiment suggestions
● Raise funds through crowdsourcing website, private donations, etc
● Announce the replication effort in all forms of media we can
● Solicit recommended and interested testing institutions
First round of replications - Small, exclusive group, to ideally include
respected organisations that have the highest capability for further study and
analysis of effect and research post experiment. These will be well documented
and publicized, including live broadcast, to raise excitement and credibility, and
firmly secure the "Celani Cell" as the defining experiment of the New Fire age.
Second round of replication - Offer many, many "Celani Cells" for sale with
appropriate instructions and liability waivers/disclaimers. Continue to document
the successful replications in a global replication data repository.

15. First Round of Replications
● Build between 5 and 10 apparati
● Select 1 or 2 institutions on each continent to perform the replication
experiment
● Require conformance to initial test protocol
● Ship the apparatus
● Send a team to assist:
○ Technician/consultant
○ Videographer
○ Interpreter if necessary
● After the initial replication, the investigating institution is free to experiment
on their own, with a commitment to publish data and findings openly.

16. Global Data Flow
Data from the experiment will be collected with a pre-set up data acquisition system,
synched to a central database, and shared in near real time with the world.
World-wide audience

17. Second Round of
Replication
Offer copies of the cell for sale to any party interested in demonstrating the
effect or dummy cells to those wanting to have a piece of history. The
drawings will already be published, and the instrumentation will already be
open source, but many institutions will want to start on this research path with a
proven, reliable demonstration of the effect.
Sale of each one will have to be accompanied by a liability waiver.
Use the proceeds to continue promoting the validity of the effect and supporting
research.
