Yes, I agree. However, it would be nice if someone else could show some signs of replication in this case plus I think I have had other circuits in the past that may have been more likely candidates for looping.

Dear Pm,
I understand that you have become a bit disappointed and stop research in this area as you wrote because the circuitry used in Mode 2 was also sensitive to the ambient. I also understand that you had expected more replications, besides Itsu and Tinman.
I think Itsu used the same circuitry like you but he did not measure OU, while Tinman's circuit uses a input transformer he carefully selected out of several transformers to get a measured OU, recently a COP of 2 or so.
Regarding your other circuits in the past that may have been more likely candidates for looping, I do not know whether anyone attempted those circuits to loop back? No offense but I recall eventual measurement errors you yourself found and reported in some of the cases.
There was your setup last year with the bifilar pancake transformer that TinselKoala replicated (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNzbc-N-e9c ) and his measurements showed a COP of 2.9 which is remarkable of course. Now what I do not know is whether this setup was attempted to loop back with a suitable circuit by you (or by TinselKoala)? If not, then from your part, why not?
Regarding my lack of replication attempt of your parametric circuit, I apologize for not doing it. Simply, I am not fully convinced by the measurements and again I mean no offense with this, sorry. This is why I mentioned the looping for you, also for Tinman with a circuit suggestion, that would be the ultimate test.
However, my take on this is that nobody has any 'obligation' to show a looped circuit to prove he has an OU circuitry, this is completely voluntary, so I do not 'blame' you or anyone else for not doing so.
Maybe others think this differently, saying that this is a private group, you created it, so why not show looping?
When I suggest looping in case someone reports measured OU, then first of all I mean proving it for himself, not to send himself up the garden path with any wrong measurements that are not easy to detect. If anomaly causes OU and not measurement errors, then looping could maintain operation of course.
I've thought I write these thoughts of mine to you. Please keep up your excellent work in this or any other area.
