But that kind of statement actually shows that it is your mind that is closed. You are certain you are right, and that I need to be taught. That's a closed mind.

It sounds like a religious statement, not a rational one. Would it help my case if I told you I was certain that you will understand your mistake in the future. No. I thought not. Probably it won't be anytime soon. Rossi's type usually knows how to string his disciples along for years. There are many examples. What your statement of certainty reveals is that you are unable to explain how the output being at the boiling point proves 100% vaporization, so you ignore it. To cut my previous post down to a single challenge: think about what you would observe if the power were 235 kW instead of 470 kW. Would the temperature be any different? Would Rossi collect any water in his trap through a closed valve? Oh, and one more implausibility occurred to me, that might be a little easier for you to understand. When the 8-fold increase in power transfer occurs, it not only means heating up a lot of thermal mass very quickly, but it also means that *all 107 ecats* have to turn on exactly at the onset of boiling. How on earth could that happen? The core of the ecat doesn't know when boiling starts, so it's amazing that even one knows when to turn on, but for all to turn on at the same time would be pretty amazing.
