Yes, this might be true.
Of course, if they use an internal heat exchanger this would not change
the energy bilance.
But, in any case the water is pre-heated when they preheat the core.
If they would use and internal heat exchanger, then cheap E-Cat energy
would be used to preheat the water and only this energy to heat the core
above 60° must be made electrically.
This would not change the energy bilance, but the cost bilance.

Rossi has stated that the energy released by the LENR reaction is in
the form of moderate energy gamma rays(X-Rays?) These rays are
converted into heat within the lead shielding and coolant. If this is
true, heat to activate the core could be made to exit into the coolant
to slow down the reaction. The actual temperature within the core
section is perhaps 600(?) C degrees or more. You can find his
statement within his journal if it is important to you. The 60 degree
figure probably refers to the temperature of the water bath when the
core reaches its starting value.

"stabilize" the reaction. Maybe it stars at 60 degrees, but needs to
be hotter, or needs to be heated for a long time, to "stabilize".

What I still dont understand: If the outer surface reaches 66°
then everything inside must be hotter than 60 degrees.
Why is electric heating still needed? Ok, there is cold water
flowing in. They could run this through an internal heat
exchanger and avoid electric preheating.
