The apparent coincidence, as I've pointed out many times, is that somehow the *claimed* power output is always just enough to vaporize all the input water flow to within a per cent or two. This happens no matter the flow rate or the ecat size. Of course, it's not really a coincidence at all. The fact is that the output temperature at the boiling point (with some steam), occurs over an enormous power range. If P corresponds to the onset of boiling, then any power between P and 8P will give the same observed temperatures. So it is not all surprising that that's the temperature it operates at.
