i have an entire mountain of doubt and skepticism sitting on top of the tiniest grain of hope.

Op, there is no such device or will there be in the near future that can produce free energy. It violates the laws of thermodynamics. It is just another overunity device.
Yes I believe we should be trying to figure it out, yes I believe it will one day be possible, but no, I dont believe this device is anything other than another scam.
Just because on video it shows X doesnt mean X has ever or can or will ever occur. I watched a guy named Hancock pick up a car and fly with it on video, should I take that at face value as well?
Any over-unity device would naturally violate the laws of thermodynamics, so it can't be "just another overunity device" as you stated. There are shortcuts however allowed by physical law, some of them rather dangerous, others not so much.
Let's say you wanted to ask someone a question on a planet circling Barnard's Star, would you have a conversation that took 24 years to get an answer back or would you rather compress space and take advantage of a "shortcut?" Instead of a signal traveling 12 light years there and another 12 back, through entanglement you could make the distances infinitely small.
The same types of shortcuts apply to energy, you don't have to violate any laws to change ground states and release usable energy, you just have to understand how to create the new ground state and capture the energy. As I said though, there are dangers because changing grounds states, removing electrons and protons, etc. can create a singularity. I don't think that would happen with the "mechanical design" in the video, but as we progress someone else will "fall" across this feature of quantum entanglement.

You don't even know how to read the results. You're looking at the wrong numbers.

In the video below, you'll see the UK team test the conversion of VAR power (virtual power) into actual power, with a light bank acting as a load on the system.

Thanks for that info. Now that it's been shown maybe others familiar with the details can check it out.
About the vars, why are we concerned with reactive power calculations in the first place?
en.wikipedia.org...
Engineers care about apparent power, because even though the current associated with reactive power does no work at the load, it heats the wires, wasting energy. Conductors, transformers and generators must be sized to carry the total current, not just the current that does useful work.
It doesn't appear to be relevant. Vars aren't watts. Does Robitaille ever even try to demonstrate an increase in actual power by clearly showing power in and power out?

Hi guys,
I'm an engineer, but I don't need an engineering degree to understand what that video is all about - since the black guy states what this thing is.
It is a means to store and retrieve energy. There is *NO* new energy being created like you people are assuming of this thing - it is not a generator.
It is another form of a "battery".
He says so right in the video.
What are you guys arguing about? If what this thing does is right, then they have an amazing invention potentially - the ability to store and retrieve large quantities of energy in small spaces. That is an unbelievable leap in technology - with huge implications.
I'll let you guys discuss the rest.

They said they would supply a voltage to one end - in the design - and then they would obtain power on the output.
Of course, Mills could be a genius whose theories are going to completely revolutionize modern science (and modern industry). That's what his supporters claim. But that's what the supporters of ALL free-energy schemers claim. The fact is that for almost fifteen years Mills has been promising that practical applications of his hydrino technology are just around the corner. But nothing ever materializes. And meanwhile he keeps luring in new investors with his wild promises of limitless energy. So it seems to me that Mills and his hydrinos match the familiar free-energy pattern of big promises, but no results.
Dr. Michio Kaku, a theoretical physicist based at City University of New York, adds that "the only law that this business with Mills is proving is that a fool and his money are easily parted."

No, I'm claiming that all the reports show J/g in the hundreds, and you don't understand what you're looking at.
