Good thinking, expect that the total metal weight of the E-Cat is ca. 5kg. Perhaps quite bit less. And we still need to worry that insulation material cannot withstand high temperatures and also the parts of E-Cat that are in direct contact with water cannot exceed 100°C. Therefore total mass that can store thermal energy (i.e. heating element or the core) cannot weight more than 500 grams. Therefore I suggest you slight revision of calculations. –Jouni
