Is the new source of fusion like energy that is claimed by a startup company called Blacklight Power for real?

Question

There is this heavily funded startup company called Blacklight Power (i've no affiliation with them) who claim to have invented a new way of harnessing low temperature fusion like energy. They have been in existence for over 5 yrs. If the energy source was real why don't we hear much about them in media?

Answer 1

Getting into some of the available literature it sounds like a scam.  

If the science was proven then we would be hearing about it or the oil industry would buy the patent and there would be no investors.

I wouldn't put my money on it at this time, there are other alternative energy investments out there that are a lot less risky.

Answer 2

That's a big IF.

No, not just a big IF, but a really, really big IF.  That IF is so big that you have to have a special font just to comprehend it.  It is an IFAMAJORA.  If you started with an OAF, like Al Gore, and converted it to an IF, it still wouldn't be as big as your IF.
