Rossi has not done a definitive test. I don't trust him on his input mass flow rate (2 grams per second) or whether or not it was turned to vapor or just spurted out as liquid slugs of water into the drain.
Levi has a lot to gain monetarily so I don't trust his high flow rate test (where there was no vapor produced). I'll be less skeptical, when independent groups definitively show a large tank of water being heated with input power carefully monitored. My skepticism comes from: 1. Rossi used a water vapor based analysis that could be easily faked (i.e. faked input water mass flow rate or faked vapor output). He could easily have done a test and made 30 gallons of hot water but multiple times he chose the "vapor down the drain / hide the evidence method". 2. Rossi's assertions of that steam quality can be measured with a Relative Humidity meter (it can't). 3. Rossi is not trained as a scientist (diploma mill college degree - is that true?) and virtually comes out of nowhere with huge claims. 4. Past legal convictions related to a waste disposal company. 5. His fiasco with the thermoelectric device contract. 6. Lack of quality scientific reports showing measurements and methods used to measure. There is probably more, but I'm not following Rossi close enough to know it all. Does anyone have comments they can make for or against Defkalion regarding their legitimacy?
