I think Rossi is misdirecting us with this heat answer. I doubt "any" heat
would work. If it does, why can't the process heat inside provide the
needed heat? Why is there a need to provide "electrical" heat. Rossi
appears to be insistent that electricity is needed to drive the process, to
control it; which leads me to conclude that he is using electricity for
something other than raw heat. Maybe RF or sparks from electricity.
This speculation would also apply to DGT's "Triggered Reaction" as
speculated by many here in Vortex. There was a discussion a few post back
where the temperature of the hydrogen spiked and then dropped suddenly.
Only one process in my mind is capable of doing this - sparks. Sparks could
bring the hydrogen temps up rapidly and the temps would die down just a
quickly. DGT must be controlling the reaction by modulating the frequency
and intensity of the sparks. Sparks require very little energy, hence the
COP can be high.
I suspect some kind of bulk heat is needed to bring the hydrogen to near
ionization temps. Then the sparks ionize the hydrogen to maintain the
reactions.
Many have speculated that the catalyst was needed to dissociate H2 to H+
atoms. I suspect Rossi was initially using copper and iron powder to do so.
Later on, he found out that sparks worked better at this; hence, he
introduced his "RF" which was essentially sparks. I believe all of Rossi's
later e-Cats now use "RF". (Somebody correct me if I misunderstood this.)

Subject: Rossi replication?
I too am interested in the spark plug idea. I asked Rossi if there was a
cathode/annode in his reactor or if any heat source such as Bunsen would
work and he said any heat... But he may have been lying or had not tried it.
Where is your lab? I am In The Bay Area, California.
