OK... Anyone want to explain how stable + stable = radiation (miniscule) + stable?
I mean, what's the waste product of this thing? Copper?

Copper and H2O..steam...
Quote from: Rossi
The good news is that nickel-hydrogen cold fusion is completely safe. E-Cat utilizes this type of reaction. Unlike conventional fission based nuclear reactors that utilize uranium or plutonium, no radioactive material is put inside of the reactor vessel. Only completely stable and non-radioactive nickel powder is added along with hydrogen gas. Additionally, when an E-Cat needs to be re-fueled, there is no radioactive waste to deal with. During the operation of an E-Cat, only small amounts of radiation are produced. This low energy gamma radiation can be completely and totally shielded with a couple centimeters of lead.

Would something very bad happen if an earthquake hits this E-Cat cold fusion reactor?

The little one... Probably the worst we would have to worry about is the steam getting out. IANANE, though.
The Big one? Probably as much to worry about as Fukushima, maybe a little less. Still not a nuclear engineer, of course.

Despite having literally zero substantive expertise to back this up I'm going to assume this is bullshit. I'd love to be wrong, though, as this would drive the "peak oil" people insane.
You mean the people that recognize little concepts like thermodynamics, ecology, EROI, etc?
The problem with most peak-oil people is not their geological knowledge. The problem with a lot of them is their economic ignorance and their political activism getting on the way of making objective predictions. I have seen the most surreal economic explanations coming from the peak-oil people, and when you try to talk to them they just act like a sect.
Im not a geological expert, I dont deny (or support) peak-oil, it might be real I just dont know enough about it, but their economic ignorance mix with arrogance when explaining their economic views gives me everything but confidence in their predictions.
peak oil always sounded fun to me, but in reality its both bad and good. collapse the movie, find it on netflix tells the whole story pretty good.

it should be noted that the patent on this tripe was rejected because it "broke the laws of phsyics", sweet.
What patent do you refer to ? The patent of Rossi was not rejected.
That patent was issued in 2011, 3 years after he first tried to patent the device. Additionally, that patent is only valid in Italy. No US or EU patent exists for the product given that both US and EU patent offices have thrown it out as being complete bollocks.
I don't know what patent you are talking about, but in the "European Patent Register" you can see the patent issued 4-8-2008 that is valid in Europe.
What is the source of your information ?

Here's a good thread (in which you might recognize one of the posters)
I didn't even realize this was the same guy.
It's a shame cold fusion is a complete load of bollocks huh?

extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Lol, look at the photo, it's Mr. Fusion!
Even the "Home energy reactor" writing is the same

it does not defy physics...
are you actually qualified to make that statement?

That said, the claims are still almost certainly false.
Exactly. The theoretical posibility for cold fusion is there. Its more a problem of engineering. We dont know how to harvest that energy. This guy claims he has. Well see in October.

We said the same thing before the Manhattan project, why is this different, i too am skeptical of the product most of all, but the science behind it is not exactly proven as well. but i am willing to see what they do.
