Good evening Gentlemen, I made a major OOPS Sat night, while trying to perfect the reactor, I had been using a Variac at low (25, 50, 75, 100 with 5volt switch increments to find the best settings. Well Sat night all my daughters were gone (there is a god) my poor wife was sound asleep on the 3rd floor. While I was watching the bubbler I reached up without looking to add 5 volts, well I turned the 25 volt switch instead. There must have been a arc inside the secondary reactor. Gentleman it was a god awful explosion. A good anology would be that if a lump of coal was between the cheeks of my ass I wouldv'e been crapping diamonds while running on air.
I have made several small explosions using balloons just to see how powerful this stuff is but Sat night gave me nothing but a whole new respect for this stuff, my ears rang for almost 2 hours afterwards. The explosion was so intense it knocked the insulation out of the ceiling joist. I sent Chris several pics of what was left of reactor #2. He called right away and left this message "Dude, are all your limbs still attached" lol Anyways now it's back to the drawing board on a design that won't ARC lol.
Oh by the way, the wife, well if eyes could shoot laser beams I would be a pile of ashes now. After she calmed down she asked me if I was hurt, I told her just my pride was, she then whacked me in the back of the head a good one and said "now you are"
