BlackLight Power has invented a new primary energy source with applications to heating, distributed power generation, central power generation, and motive power based on a new chemical process of releasing the latent energy of the hydrogen atom, the BlackLight Process. In this process, the electron in an ordinary hydrogen atom is induced to move closer to the proton, below the prior-known ground state to form more stable hydrogen atoms called hydrinos. The large energy released exceeds that required to extract hydrogen from water, such that water may serve as the hydrogen fuel source for the process.
BlackLight's experimental results are published widely and have been replicated by independent groups. The process, apparatus and compositions of matter are covered by patents pending and issued. BlackLight will license companies for the commercialization of our technologies as we continue to develop new technologies related to the BlackLight Process. "The BlackLight process generates enormous amounts of cheap, non-polluting heat that will replace the thermal power of coal, oil, gas, and nuclear power plants that is then converted to energy." BlackLight Power is owned by Millsian, Inc.

You should know better.

In BlackLight's patented process, atomic hydrogen is reacted with a catalyst, and energy is released as the electrons of atomic hydrogen are induced by the catalyst to undergo transitions to lower energy levels to form lower-energy hydrogen atoms called hydrinos. Since hydrinos have energy levels much lower than uncatalyzed hydrogen atoms, the energy release is intermediate between conventional chemical and nuclear energies. The net energy released may be over one hundred times that of combustion with power densities like those of fossil fuel combustion and nuclear power plants. Thus, the catalysis of atomic hydrogen, the BlackLight Process, represents a potential new source of energy. The hydrogen fuel is obtained by diverting a fraction of the output energy of the process to power the electrolysis of water into its elemental constituents. With water as the fuel, the operational cost of BlackLight Power generators will be very inexpensive. Moreover, rather than air pollutants or radioactive waste, novel hydrogen compounds with potential commercial applications are the by-products. The BlackLight Process offers a prospectively efficient, clean, cheap, and versatile thermal energy source.

I'm for empiricism over rationalism-- that is, if I see good evidence, I don't entirely care if we can't explain why.

When Mills has large engines, power plants on vehicles, and large scale electrical generating plants up and running on a commercial scale I might sit up and pay attention. This guy has been around for quite some time. There are folks who make a living at using other folks money for their "projects".

Kind of like Mr Moller and his "SkyCar".

If it sounds too good to be true....it usually is.

On August 12th 2009 Rowan University announced validation of excess heat generated by off the shelf chemicals in a recipe provided by Black Light Power. Rowan had previously validated even greater energy gains in 2008 using hydrogenated Rayney nickel provided by Black Light Power but there was much speculation regarding the "preparation" of the supplied powder. In both cases the energy produced exceeded known chemistry and implies an unknown mechanism beyond chemical but less than nuclear. This subject of anomalous heat production regarding monatomic hydrogen and different catalysts has been a long standing mystery in the scientific community. From Irving Langmuir’s circa 1939 Nobel Prize work with Atomic Hydrogen to Ponds and Fleischman work in the 80's and more recent reports by Arata-Zhang, Energetics INC and SPAWARS. Trying to unravel this mystery has taken many paths, Cold Fusion, bubble fusion, LENR, cavitation and Casimir cavities to name a few. Much of the controversy has revolved around claims of a fractional quantum state where the orbital radius drops below the Bohr radius. I am proposing these so called fractional quantum states or hydrino states as defined by BLP are relativistic and can only be observed from outside the Casimir cavity. atoms inside the cavity remain unchanged relative to each other in the same manner that the model Twin Paradox of physics allows the twin approaching C or an event horizon to remain unchanged relataive to his own frame nothing happens.

Yep. Check this gem out:

I know something that defies science...

...ETP!
