Over the past few months there have been many great steps forward. There are now a couple of people building replication Krupa plugs and distributing them to the other experimenters for testing.  Without even using the plasma circuit there was a reported 6% fuel efficiency increase over 1051 miles of driving.

Several people have also been testing fuel/water vaporizers. In combination with the new spark plugs we are starting to get somewhere that the large companies in the auto industry have been unable to or unwilling to pursue.

There is also a report from gmeast of massive improvements in the timing mechanism. He is actually running at 5 deg retarded …

I set the timing to 0 deg TDC and it was better and then 5 deg retarded and it feels great there. – gmeast

New PCB’s have been designed specifically for the circuit and distributed to various experimenters.

There is a new video from Ash at panacea.org outlining developments.

How ever it appears that there are now semi commercial interests in the name of Aquapulser involved in making the circuits for sale which appear to have taken a lot of their lead from all the hard work done by people at the energetic forums particularly gmeast’s defining work.

Gmeast after all his hard work on the vexus circuit switched to using the firestorm replicas and concentrating on the water vapor/geet principals. With a standard ignition and timer and beryllium-copper plugs he is seeing 40.5 mpg compared to 25mpg in his VW bug. There is also very little wear on the plugs after serious road testing which was a major problem with the vexus and standard plugs. The best he got with the Vexus was 35mpg. There is little reason to combine the vexus and the firestorm replicas together is that there is no increase in efficiency as the firestorms are capable or producing the plasma required on a standard circuit.

He was working with only water vapor and was getting the results that everyone expected.

Unfortunately due to the economic environment Greg has had to close shop and sell all his equipment in order to survive.
