			<description><![CDATA[@Ron B We are likely to take this steel cell into calibration in the next few days and then into live runs. I think that the high temperatures for low input - say 20W in achieving 160+ degrees means that we may see far higher signal to noise in the configuration as is - this is good. But fear not, yet other cells are being conceptualised that will learn from and extend this work. With the communities help and contributions we feel we are working towards a practical experiment. Every step makes the path ahead clearer. Thank you for your kind words, It is certainly exciting to be involved as you say - we need everyones eyes on the data over the coming weeks because soon the EU cell and this steel cell may be running and this will start producing a LOT of data. We will also need help spreading the word when the Kickstarter is launched. We just need a few 10,000s people to make a small donation and then we believe if it can be done, we can deliver a device that will enlighten the world in order to start this revolution.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[@Ecco 2013-01-16 15:26 Good idea, and if you could get the heating wire a bit closer to the active wire then its resistance variations would clearly show the temperature of the Celani wire along its entire length. If you take care to have the heating wire set into the Macor a bit more to assure that if it does sag it won't connect with the Celani wire. So exciting to be involved in this phase. A quick glance at the data just now looks very encouraging! Great work team Fire.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[@MFMP: regarding the stainless cell, what about making the wiring twice as dense so that both the heating and the active wires can be wound in the same manner around the macor support? I think that despite the denser wiring there would be less chance of short circuiting, and furthermore the tube (and the active wire) would be heated more evenly along its length. I did post a diagram in the past, but perhaps you don't need both wires to return back to the upper flange as I depicted there. EDIT: I mean having the heater wire located where the green lines lay in this edited photo: http://i.imgur.com/Shnjz.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Shnjz.jpg]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hi Dave. Did you get the spreadsheet that calculates the power out based on all three sensors? It's here: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B0yO8n6-0MjNU1BidW1WTlhOcUU/edit That shows the power out calculated from T_Glassout to be low, too, on both cells. -13 on cell 1.0 and -2 on 1.1. Here is the data for the calibration including times. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B0yO8n6-0MjNYUpMX3NoOURWQ2M/edit]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[In this case it was not hooked up to the sophisticated instrumentation , yet. It was powered by a rack mounted DC power supply and I was taking the power from the voltage and current gauges. I was monitoring the temperature with a hand held meter watching an internal thermocouple. All the suggestions here are good - current limiting, temp based control or power control. The newest software in our instrumentation package includes those features, but they aren't well tested yet.]]></description>
