Brilliant Light power: a source of almost free light energy? That could power super photovoltaics?
Dr Mills is working on a method to get the hydrogen atom/molecule to its lowest energy state which he thinks may be the heart of what dark matter is composed of -- a state of matter so low in energy that it cannot be detected other than by its gravity as it gives off no light. He claims to have figured out a computer controlled method to get the hydrogen atom to this yet unconfirmed/unobserved hydrogen state of very low energy one molecule at a time which release huge amounts of deep ultraviolet light that could be converted into electricity. All you need is a source of hydrogen and something to perpetuate/control the process. He is working on that process as we speak.
see his video:

For another take on this low energy state see:

Do note Steven Chu, called it "extremely unlikely" which seems reasonable in that both we do not know [for sure -- proven beyond all doubt] what hydrogen's lowest state is nor the nuclear? path for making dark matter.

Snake oil... and pretty stale at that, 1991? how long ago was that? 25 years?
the quantum was proposed at the turn of the 19th century to the 20th century, by 1925 it was a well established theory explaining a large domain of atomic phenomena.
It was not universally accepted, prompting the Max Planck observation that "physics progresses one funeral at a time."
This was possible, the rise of quantum mechanics, because of it's ability to predict the outcome of experiment, which is the sine qua non of theory. For important theories, this usually takes place very quickly, the experimental testing... or at least as quickly as possible.
In this case, "the hydrino," there seems a tremendous lack of solid experimental evidence for it being real, and a tremendous body of solid experimental evidence inconsistent with the idea.
I expect the usual diligent observations from Dingus...
