From the experiments described and carried out, it can be garnered that the proposed means of extracting and harnessing energy from micro black holes are viable, cheaper alternatives.

L-Elf massaged the bridge of his nose. He was finally content with his paper – twenty-pages of discussion regarding other, more practical means for harvesting energy from MBHs – for the Annual Physics Symposium. It had taken approximately a month to research, a week to write, and three days to edit.
At times, he missed being an undergraduate; back then, he would have been able to finish this in less than a month. His previous schedule was more flexible.
Now, he was confined to his work hours. Undergraduate classes from eight to two with a break in between for lunch, thesis consultations from three to five, a graduate lecture class from six to nine. Sometimes he wondered why he took on such a large load – his co-workers opted for eight hours or less – only to remember that he liked working.
And L-Elf didn't like a lot of things.
He stood up from his swivel chair. He stretched and felt his bones creak and his joints pop. He padded his way to his kitchenette and poured himself another cup of coffee. This would be his tenth cup that night, and this would be his third night running on little, little meaning thirty minutes, to no sleep.
He drank his coffee, and felt his tongue hiss and his throat burn.
Scaldingly hot. Without a single shred of sugar.
Just the way he liked it.
He put down his mug – large and white and something A-Drei had given him to congratulate him for making the teaching post all those years back; as if they could expect anything less from a Karlstein – and thought of buying himself a newer coffee machine. One that came with more functions he could fiddle with.
A glance at the clock on top of his fridge – the queerest thing about him was that there were clocks everywhere in his house – confirmed that four minutes and seventeen seconds had passed since he deemed his work up to par.
He still had time to re-evaluate this week's lecture notes. Or he could sleep for more than an hour then prepare for his first class.
He went back to his PC with his coffee mug.
His day-off was tomorrow anyway.
Thanks for the follows! :D Since most updates will be pretty short, I'm guessing around one to two days per segment?
If you're interested by black holes and maybe harnessing energy for them, you definitely can't go wrong with Hawking! If I remember correctly, the basic premise would be that as you shrink/evaporate black holes, they emit more radiation.
