"... The fact that they have convinced no reputable scientist and have no peer-review scientific output, but have already embarked on a commercial venture should be a huge red sign, this is not some smart gadget you can patent and make a fortune on, it's hard science where theoretical results are typically decades ahead practical applications." ?!?!
I don't know where are you getting your facts but the review committee comprised of top recognized fusion scientists (see below) had concluded that: "While a number of near-term physics issues remain to be resolved, it is likely that with adequate financial support these matters could be addressed in a relatively short period of time, e.g. a few years.Ã If these issues are addressed, Ãoethe committee does not see any fundamental roadblock to power system viability.Ã In other words, a functioning, economical and clean new source of energy may soon become reality.
Committee:
Dr. Robert Hirsch, a former director of fusion research for the US Atomic Energy Commission and the Energy Research and Development Agency;
Dr. Stephen O. Dean, President of Fusion Power Associates and former director of fusion Magnetic Confinement Systems for the Department of Energy;
Professor Gerald L. Kulcinski, Associate Dean for Research, College of Engineering, University of Wisconsin-Madison; and
Professor Dennis Papadopoulos, Professor of Physics, University of Maryland.

Also, the chief fusion researcher has a peer reviewed article just published recently: http://www.worldscientific.com...
Last but not least lawrencevilleplasmaphysics.com holds a number of patents regarding its Focus Fusion over several continents...
This project continues to get both private investments and crowdfunding donations as it should based on cutting edge science, experiments and results observed so far.
