Ah right, been a while since I have seen it. Anyway it was an 'in theory weapon' then but did not work in practice. It would have been Earths first combat deployed energy weapon but alas it was not to be.—

The definition of Theory:Originally posted by Princeton Universitya well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world; an organized system of accepted knowledge that applies in a variety of circumstances to explain a specific set of phenomena; "theories can incorporate facts and laws and tested hypotheses"; "true in fact and theory"Originally posted by Princeton Universitya tentative theory about the natural world; a concept that is not yet verified but that if true would explain certain facts or phenomena; "a scientific hypothesis that survives experimental testing becomes a scientific theory"; "he proposed a fresh theory of alkalis that later was accepted in chemical practices"
Of course that doesn't mean he was successful; our technological level is a huge hurdle to overcome when it comes to building stuff like his cannon. If we haven't got it now, then we're still waiting for technology to catch up so we can build it.Jarnin's Law of StarGate:

Carter quotes it directly, like I said.
Here is a direct copy paste from the Gateworld Transcript of the episode:
CARTER: "It's an energy-based weapon, sir. It could, potentially, replace the missiles on the X-303."

Some various lines from Avenger 2.0:

That does not mean the the weapon does not work, it just means that the weapon took too much power the the fuses could take. This happens when you chain too many Christmas lights. And judging by the fact the the piece of metal that Felger was going to shoot at was pretty beat up leads me to thing that the weapon had at least once been fired successfully.
What does anyone else think why it has never been seen since?
