Here was error in calculations... As I refined that perhaps 60-120% estimation is more accurate, here is also proper upper limit considered: proper values for excess heat are: 3.7kW – 6.8 kW. –Jouni Ps. Horace, it does not matter where the temperature probe is installed as soon as it is in contact with steam or water and not too close to the core/heating element. Also Rossi has build the damn thing, for sure he knows the proper place for thermocouple. If he has misplaced it then it means that he is cheating, and as we have already shown that we cannot assume fake, because if we do assume fake, then we must assume that there is hidden fuel cell. Also metal conducts heat very well and it is just matter of minutes when the power is cut as E-Cat is settled into thermal equilibrium that is dominated by the boiling point of water.
