It's an impressive result, despite running it in a way to make measurement convenient and to minimize the likelihood of damaging the device. They ran the power at a constant rate rather than allowing for self-sustained periods. The COP was 3.13 to 3.74 depending on the power input level. Given

The report cites the fuel as a combination of LiAlH4 and Ni + Fe. It appears the Ni is treated with an Fe catalyst as I surmised - this is the powder I have been working with. The LiAlH4 means that Rossi is using a hydride supplying only H2 and not D. Bob Higgins
