Something seems very "off" about the info.

https://brilliantlightpower.com

I visited their site and there are all kinds of strange language constructs and wild statements and what appears to be pseudo-science jargon.  Here is just one:

 "massive power from the conversion of hydrogen atoms of water molecules to dark matter"

We don't even know what dark matter is, so how can they claim they are converting something to it?

I loathe to cite Wikipedia, but it can be useful at times to summarize scientific stuff (but never if it involves anything political or social):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brilliant_Light_Power

 "In 1999, the Nobel prize winning physicist Philip Warren Anderson said he is "sure that it's a fraud",[12] and in the same year another Nobel prize winning physicist, Steven Chu, called it "extremely unlikely".[23] The following year, a 2000 patent based on its hydrino-related technology[24][25] was later withdrawn by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) due to contradictions with known physics laws and other concerns about the viability of the described processes, citing Park and others.[26]"

And much more.  To me (and apparently tons of others), it looks like a scam, kinda like "cold fusion."  Would love for it not to be, of course.

So, to sum up, it's a process that cannot be replicated by anyone else because it requires a "special" something that only he knows about. Yeah,.... right. :rotflmao:
It's bound to be added to the list of such things that some will claim have been "suppressed" by the Oil Industry or by the Government or by some other sinister organization (Illuminati? Knights who say Ni?).
Scientific peer review exists for a reason and the reason is to separate the wheat from the chaff. This is 100% chaff.
Just because it's on the Internet doesn't mean it's true.

I just came in from cutting down the tallest tree in the forest with a Herring when I read this. ;D
