I'm definitely skeptical of the e-cat but it sounds simple enough to build at home. But yes, the whole 'unexplained scientific pheonmena' combined with we can't show you the design because we don't have patents, combined with we can't get patents because the science is unproven sounds like the typical scam.

I just looked into it and it is a claim of cold fusion. They say they've been running successfully for two years now. fucking bullshit. Thorium is too important to be associated with this crap.

The really weird thing is it's at the end of the energy producing fusion chain, eg. nickel to copper / iron.
