Jed,
They may have been 20KW. I found a link that indicates that he did
indeed switch from the smaller e-cats to the 250KW units. The URL is
"http://hydrofusion.com/news/e-cat-third-quarter-developments-2015";
The main quote is:
"Built-in Redundancy
In the first week of August, 2015, Rossi officially announced that
the 1MW plant had built-in redundancy. The original E-Cat system is
combined with the four 250 KW reactors he had perfected earlier in
the year. This increases the safety margins significantly, and will
figure greatly in the successful long-term test that is scheduled to
end sometime in the first quarter of 2016. The large E-Cats, which
Rossi calls Tigers, are the main source of power, and the smaller
versions are for backup. Rossi gives a great deal of detail about the
plant, stating that it is designed to continue running even if one of
the main units is offline for maintenance, without having to resort
to using the backup power. This provides, in effect, a double back-up
for the production of power."

Okay, here are the specs for these boilers:

The models S242 and CR242 are both 420 kW.
The dimensions for both are listed in inches: 43" L x 58" W x 78" H
That's 1 m x 1.5 m x 2 m
I think you could fit two of these in the shipping container.
However, if you fired them both up, the heat would be intolerable. I
expect the heat transfer efficiency of these units is better than
the small square boxes in Rossi's device, so there would be less waste heat.
