Actually, there is no reason to believe that it will require additional input energy to activate the 2 extra cores. He has a COP of 6 when all are used which results in an output of 1558 * 6 = 9348 each ECAT of 107 total. I used the test data to determine that this was entirely in line with the results expected in the driven mode. He did not use 3 for his test....the output of the 1 MW system proved that indirectly.
It is clear to me that Rossi does not want it to be easy to determine. Everyone needs to understand that. He is using misdirection to his advantage. You have a valid point about his history. But, the results of this test speak for themselves. I fail to believe that so many important people are in a scam with Rossi. It is just not credible to me. The Ni-H system is the one we have been waiting for. It will make history.

The October 6th test only needed proper calorimetry by independent observers. hat's it. I seriously question Rossi's claims because this should be easy to emonstrate. They appear to be intentionally convoluted. Furthermore, his istory should give us pause, and ample justification for caution. His efforts with biodiesel (Petroldragon) and thermoelectric generation (LTI) ere both instances of taking real science, and claiming breakthroughs, ometimes orders-of-magnitude better, than everyone else. Keep this in mind. It s not much different than taking a few watts claimed by Piantelli, and claiming housands. P&F have NOTHING to do with my skeptical view of Rossi. Rossi and is weak demonstrations have everything to do with it. I sincerely hope than Ni-H will match the claims the aggressive claims that have een made. It would create a new industrial revolution, where cheap energy akes desalinization, industrial farming, and so much more, possible. The evidence just isn't there for Rossi's claims. avid Roberson <[email protected]> wrote: > It is unfortunate that Mr. Rossi did not use all three cores of his ECAT for he October 6, 2011 test. The results would have indicated at least 2 times the bserved energy production. I have completed an extensive review of the data collected during that October test and it is apparent that we missed the big show. It is not clear as to hy Rossi chose to limit the ECAT to the 1 core test case, but I suspect that it as part of his plan to dazzle the world with the October 28 demonstration. It is possible that the control of the 1 MW system was more difficult than ossi anticipated which led to the decision to throttle it back to 470 kW. In y opinion, the demonstration of the system at the reduced power level for the xtensive period of time was not a major failure. It would have been surprising f the test had achieved all that Rossi expected since many unknown problems ften arise with complex systems such as this. The worst issue that we face is the continued barrage of criticism on this list hat mainly is a result of the skeptic’s total disbelief in anything related to old fusion. I wonder if they would have been swayed had the data demonstrated he dramatic excess energy that I calculated with 3 cores. I have a feeling hat something else would have given them reason to complain. Dave
