I have a theory that the heater internal to the SS reaction cell produces nuclear reactions electrostatically. See thread: *Negative hydrogen (H-) ions make all the difference. *This heater inside the SS reaction cell must always be present in the Rossi design to provide electrostatic stimulation of hydrogen (*Negative hydrogen (H-) ion *production).
When Rossi downsizes the reactor, an imbalance develops between the thermal and electrostatic emissions of the internal heater and Rossi must compensate by increasing EM shielded thermal heating from outside the SS reaction cell. If this is not done, the small reactor will meltdown since too much electrostatic stimulation will accompany the thermal stimulation required by the small Cat-E.
