I must emphasize again that covering an entire room with photovoltaics , floor, walls and ceiling will produce at most 4% of the grid power used by the lighting. The cost involved would be absolutely prohibitive. The ROI would involve hundreds of years, maybe longer. I don't wish to sound repetitive but i believe it is important that everyone sees through this nonsense.
Hi Dorick, no sweat, take your time, i am in no hurry. Danzik will bite the dust, it's only a matter of time.
Yes, what you have said i fully understand. I am, however, completely at a loss to understand why ASTRA would buy into this nonsense. What Holcomb claims to be his "tech" has been done before(a synchro differential behaves exactly the same) without the slightest hint of any gain. Any half competent engineer/physicist would laugh at the idea.
I am very much against Holcomb as his concepts are nonsense. I have no interest in and certainly nothing against ASTRA as such. What concerns me is why they would link up with Holcomb: if they have anyone technically competent they must know it is a hoax and if they do not have such competent staff then they should not be in this business. Anyone claiming overunity, magnification of power/energy, fuelless engines or any other such "free lunch" schemes is either a scammer or hoaxer.

He is a MD who should have remained in medicine instead of pretending to be an engineer but i guess greed is what drives such ill advised activity.
Well you were warned about Holcomb but you ignored the advice. However until there is hard evidence that Holcomb has done a runner i remain somewhat skeptical. Holcomb's tech is of no value whatsoever and this charade will bite the dust at some stage.
Yep, it's really tough on those living in the southern states. Here in Ireland hurricanes and tornadoes are virtually unknown.
Whether Danzik has a heart or not is merely speculation. He does not have a conscience and in this aspect he differs from the regular homo sapiens.
Holcomb cannot be performing well as the claims are false under the well established laws of physics.
What sources?
The deleted post #6883 suggested that Holcomb was now on the run. Is there any confirmation on this or is it just malicious? It would not surprise me however as this house of cards must inevitably fall.
Curious Bystander, the "Dorick Doohickey"!! I missed that little gem last night and on reading it this morning i nearly choked on my breakfast with bout of convulsive laughter. Very funny indeed.
Curious Bystander, what is the point of distributors when they have nothing to distribute? I am utterly amazed that this shambolic fleecing of investors has lasted so long. Five and a half years after the "earth engine" was unveiled with much fanfare nothing has worked out. Danzik has even admitted obliquely that the much touted "earth engine " does not generate any energy and has come out with this photon nonsense. Unbelievable.
Curious Bystander i think you are misreading the situation. They can't be so stupid to think they have something of value as the beyond preposterous photon engine was "invented" when the earth engine failed. Danzik, with his misuse of technical terms, is no engineer but i don't think he is stupid. The real situation, i believe is as follows: fraud can only be established if the perpetrator knowingly promotes something false. It is not fraud if he/she is simply mistaken in their belief.
MagnetLover, true, but with approval by a recognised authority the orders would flood in. Anyway this is all hypothetical as no such scheme can ever work, not now, not ever.
If one had developed a world changing technology the very first priority would be to get at least one( preferably many) fully independent test. With such a test completed the stock price would go through the roof. But this never happens- what does this tell you? This is all quite separate from the theoretical argument that the conservation laws rule out all such schemes. Another one that i am watching and criticising is the Holcomb generator which has a similar modus operandi of many promises but no independent test and no installation anywhere.
Thank you, Mr Dorick. That's a clear and easily understood explanation.
Miss Roxanne: as a retired engineer i have virtually no knowledge of financial matters. Quantum and Flooidcx seem at times to be the same thing and at other times separate entities. Then we have qree and flcx stock. And what is a reverse split? I'm baffled by it all and would appreciate some basic education.
Well 1776Rebel, that is an unfortunate situation for you. I don't think your e-mails will get a response: once Danzik has your money, that is all he cares about. Just look at his prior history in various dubious practices.
It is up to a claimant to prove their claim, not for doubters to disprove. The burden of proof rests with the inventor. You are however correct to say that if real it would be worth a fortune. Then tell me why no independent test to verify such claims have been made? It would be the first priority if real. The lack of such a fully independent test is telling.
1776Rebel, you seem to be coming around to the truth. It's painful, but it is better to know than to remain under an illusion.
The first four paragraphs of your post may or may not be viable, i don't know. Holcomb, however, is nonsense as one cannot magnify power/energy. Go ask a professional and you will find out. The fact that ASTRA has linked up with a goon like Holcomb casts grave doubt over the rest of the business.
My posts are failing to show and when i try again i find i have double posted- sorry.
Yes i had, but not being au fait with financial matters i don't know it's significance. Engineering/physics is my game.

Fair enough. If you are getting involved with a business like this one you owe it to yourself to educate yourself in these matters- otherwise anyone can scam you. If you do not wish to go down the education path(i understand fully that many may not want to and that's fine by me), then you must get the opinion of a professional engineer/physicist. As i have said repeatedly don't believe what i say but get the opinion of someone who can give you definitive answers, a professional. Energy matters are relatively simple and quite boring, well short of science fiction.
And yet another scam, one could write a book detailing all these free energy scams. In fact it has already been done by a gentleman who uses the pseudonym of Patrick Kelly and guess what, not a single one of those free energy/overunity/fuel-less engines will actually work. That website you linked to has all the usual hucksters like Bedini, Meyer, Don Smith, etc and again none of those work. You really need to educate yourself in the science of thermodynamics to understand what is possible and what is not. Otherwise you are destined spin your wheels in the dirt, getting nowhere, for the rest of your life.
Dennis ate the pudding, you can see his expanding waistline.
And i have a pink unicorn but it is not for sale. Anyone can make all kinds of claims but without fully independent scrutiny they remain as just that, unfounded assertions. The fact that Holcomb, claiming to have world changing technology, have not sought a proper independent evaluation after two and a half years can only mean they know it does not work. What other explanation can there be for such a debacle? A positive test would be worth billions.
You have seen some gizmo and you have been "told" x, y, z, etc. Look, i was told about the tooth fairy and your evidence is no stronger. A fully independent test would settle this and the share price would go through the roof with a positive result. Why has this not been done? It would be the very first priority if this was real. The fact that no independent test has been done tells me they know it would fail, as it did in Tennessee.
If you are an electronic techie you should have enough basic physics to know that "free lunch schemes" do not and cannot work. The Tilley thing i had not heard of but it did not take long to find a fraud trial arising from it. This is a well worn route, claim to have invented some great technical advance and sell shares on this basis hoping to make enough before the truth comes out. Where did the Tilley go? It went nowhere because it did not work and could never work. When these schemes eventually fail, as they must do, claims of suppression by the "evil gubbermint" are frequently made and the free energy brigade accept it- pathetic. Holcomb will go the way of Tilley, mark my words.
Thank you Dorick, you expressed that opinion and statement of fact better than i could have done. 1776rebel, you have a point, science does advance and ongoing experiments frequently clarify what we know. The conservation laws, however, have not changed one iota in ~150years and will not in the future- if the conservation of energy and momentum did not hold explicitly in all cases we would not have a stable universe and we would not exist.
I never said ASTRA is a scam. What i said was their association with the Holcomb nonsense raises grave doubts about their integrity. As regards the Holcomb stuff you have shown: i assume you are not an electrical engineer and not in a position analyse what is shown- just as a competent magician can perform seemingly impossible tricks it is very easy to wire a setup that appears miraculous. Anything short of a fully independent test is meaningless and what Holcomb claims can be taken with a pinch of salt. A fully independent test will never happen as Holcomb knows it does not work.
Did not mean to double post, i don't know how it happened.
No point in having a manufacturing plant if the product does not work!

Well Curious Bystander, it looks like Mr Szilard does not wish to talk about the "earth engine". Not surprising really as if i was in his position i would be rather short of words and deeply embarrassed. Five and a half years and a world changing tech has evaporated. Where will the "photon engine" be in five and a half years? In a dumpster somewhere, i believe.
Technology does evolve but the laws of physics do not. I see nothing new with "magnetic propulsion" seemingly abandoned to be replaced with this photon nonsense. Is that the best Quantum can do?
If a company has a good product that is reasonably priced, they will prosper regardless of what i say, good or bad. If a company is claiming the utterly impossible like Holcomb is doing they are destined to fail, again regardless of what i may say. This also is a simplification as a good product may not achieve the desired results with a bad management. When a claim that runs counter to well established laws of physics is made, it matters not whether the price or the management are good or bad as failure is guaranteed. All "free lunch" schemes are hoaxes/scams and a great way to lose one's shirt.
