Nor ever produce so much as one solitary erg to flash an LED.

You do seem to be going on quite the hatefest of Fusion, but continue to add nothing to the conversation, including sources of information. So how much energy is in an erg?

3000 ergs is enough to flash an LED.

When you have no turbine or any other means to extract power from a heat source, none gets extracted. Do you need a source for that?
