SUMMARY
Dardiks modified SuperWaves have been used for current drive in all the
three experiments.
The maximum excess power was 2500%. This range of excess power is
suitable for commercial applications (although the operating temperatures
were too low for such applications).
The maximum excess energy generated with a single Pd foil is 5.7 MJ.
