Cyclone Power Technologies, Inc. (fka CYPW)

Oh Boy! A New Agreement! This one won't be just like all the dozens of previous agreements that amounted to nothing. (Repeat after me: I believe, I believe, I believe....)

I wonder if Phoenix will issue another million dollar purchase order for Cyclone engines.

Although, since nothing was delivered on that last million dollar order, it may still be in effect.

By the way Chuck, the contract with FSDS says their two engines only have to run for 10 hours before acceptance. 50 was for the Mark 5 to Combilift. No known Cyclone engine has ever run for 10 hours under load. It's quite likely no Cyclone engine has ever been able to make its advertised power. No Cyclone engine that produces its rated torque at startup (e.g., 850 ft-lbs for the Mark 5) will have its bearings survive the first revolution.

Speaking of the Mark 5, Cyclone had paid out $400,000 in late delivery penalties to Phoenix power before Phoenix cancelled their order for the two Mark 5s. Hopefully they were able to write a similar penalty clause into the new agreement.

So now Phoenix Power, headquartered in that bungalow with a pool in the back yard, is going to fix the design of the WHE engine and put it in production, while paying Cyclone loads of money for the right to do so.

Frankie forgot to mention that Q2Power and Chris Nelson spent $6 million trying to make the WHE work, and failed. They had hired a number of the Ohio State University engineers, and even had a CTO with a PhD in engineering. That's OK. Harry will fix it all real-soon-now, right?

Interesting that a company with zero revenue and pretty close to nothing going on is having trouble filing their 10Q even with having auditors, a CFO and a $10,000 per month consultant. Not to mention a President who is a former Ernst & Ernst auditor.

And now the diversion into solar power. Harry Schoell saying "Hey, look over there!" Harry's design for using molten salt (where have I heard that term before?...) to store solar heat is another pipe dream. It's like a child's crayon drawing of a rocketship blasting garbage into the sun. Yes, theoretically the concept can work, but reality is going to creep in and stop it from happening.

Harry's model seems to be the Solana Generating Station in Arizona. Here's Harry's version:

Still lots of nonsense about Cyclone engine performance and applications. And even more nonsense about storing solar heat. The Solana plant has an electrical capacity of 280 megawatts. Harry's going to build the same kind of plant to produce 1 kilowatt of electricity. Simple. Just scale everything down by a factor of 280,000. (Wait till he finds out most things don't scale linearly.)

He even foresees cars with Cyclone engines that use heat from a big tank of molten salt at 1000 degrees. Boy, that'll be fun in an accident....

But, maybe he'll find some more suckers to cheat. No working Cyclone engines notwithstanding.
