As for the Krivit's test, there is nearly no condensation inside the
hose. That is visible in any of the video. The water output due vapor
doesn't require a very fast flow, so it is certainly free, with no

The output temperature and flow output, even visually, are convincing.
They are visually equivalent to putting off a candles by blowing them,

He doesn't need to provide data for that. 1% of liquid mass would mean

The ratio has been made infinite in some cases. Rossi has run the cells
with no power input. As I am sure you know he says this is dangerous.
Assuming that is true, it still means
