    Ahh if you wondering about “Woof” it the sound of dogs bark “in English” 😉 was just having some fun about waking up the cat.

    All the best

    Hi Andrea,

    I was just wondering if you maybe needed a suit if SW. as well as the control SW at the other end.

    It seems to me you have also developed a lot in the communication handling between the on site and off site equipment so I was wondering if there I s a SW development for that.

    Maybe an app interface where the customer could select usage parameters such as temperature control requirements at different times if day and days of week periods of different activity etc. (but I suppose the simplest solution in the beginning is that’d just a default temperature range and may be this is more relevant to the bioler and equivalent if

    But probably in a burst of over enthusiasm I’m complicating things. Which I don’t want to do and I apologize for.. Its enough to think about the control SW it self. It’s a great idea to ask for ideas.

    Best Regards

    Stephen

    Dear Andrea.
    Congratulations with Your first “heat customer” and the plant ready for automatic production of E-Cats. As for all your followers the presentations of COP and further information on January 31 is accomodated with great excitement.
    I do have some questions concerning the control units.
    1. What will the weight be for a unit able to control 10 off E-Cat SK, and for 50?
    2. Will the control units be more expensive to make than the E-Cats they operate?
    3. Do you assume the weight and cost, will fall considerably when a mass production is established also for these?
    Regards: Svein Henrik

    Dear Andrea,
    Here are some name suggestion for the software:

    Purr Control
    or
    Purr Master

    Christmas Greetings from Sweden

    Hi Andrea

    For data transfer I quote like “the name “Catapult” not sure if it’s been used before.

    Perhaps you need a series of SW an app at the client (cat Nap?) Control SW at head quarters and communication SW?

    Grear news it’s already out there being used officialy by a customer. The LENR revolution has already started quietly in the background it seems.

    All the best for Christmas and the extraordinary new year.

    Best Regards

    Stephen

  • Alessandro Coppi

    …a name for your software that controls the E-cat
    “SPIRIT OF AR”

    Best regards
    Alessandro Coppi

  • Greg Leonard

    Dear AR,
    I think you have already given us a name that you like: your software should be named ‘Opera’

  • Stephen

    Hii Andrea Rossi

    I like Brokeeper’s idea but In case you need some others..

    If the SW controls when the cat sleeps how about cat nap?

    If it controls when and how the cat wakes up how about… WOOF! 😉

    Or perhaps it’s more the mouse it controls?

    Best Regards

    Dear Dr Rossi,
    I know I am not alone expecting on Jan 31 to be witnessing the birth of an historic moment in science history .
    A similar moment was Dec 31 1879 when Edison showed his light bulb first time in public.
    He then stated “We will make electricity so cheap that only the rich will burn candles.”
    You could very well state the same just instead using “heat” and “fossils”.
    There are more similarities, Edison did not invent artifical light but was first to make it practical. Similar as you have made with heat from LENR.
    New York Times published their exclusive first main stream article already Dec28.
    (https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/learning/general/onthisday/big/1021.html#article)

    Could you also consider inviting NYT?

    To You and Your Team
    My Best Wishes for Jan 31 and rest of 2019

    Hello Dr Rossi

    Here is my name for the ECat software
    contest.

    Rossi Analytical ECat Software.

  • Brokeeper

    Dear Andrea,

    I propose naming the software ‘Catnip’ from a description of its effects from a Scientific America artical ‘How Does Catnip Work Its Magic on Cats?’:

    “When cats smell catnip they exhibit several behaviors common to queens in season (females in heat): They may rub their heads and body on the herb or jump, roll around, vocalize and salivate. This response lasts for about 10 minutes, after which the cat becomes temporarily immune to catnip’s effects for roughly 30 minutes.”
    https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/experts-how-does-catnip-work-on-cats/

    Sounds like effects the software has on the E-Cat.
    With much respect
    Brokeeper

    Dear Dr. Rossi,
    As we all can see, your business strategy presents the E-cat in silence and in a very soft way, waiting for the market to slowly notice what you have in your hand.

    At this point, one would instead expect great fanfares, presentations to a large audience of journalists and scientists, articles and broadcasts on all world media. And of course the right recognition of your work.

    After all, the E-cat is real and is the greatest revolution for humanity after the discovery of fire.

    Surely in your choices there are motivations that we do not know and that explain your actions.

    I know very well that this is a very sensitive subject and it is not possible to know more.

    Anyway, could you tell us your thought? Thank you.

    Kind Regards,
    Italo R.

  • Bernie Morrissey

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    Do you have a name for your software that controls the E-cat
    yet? Maybe we could have a contest to make a name. Everyone could pick a name they like best.

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    I believe Gerard McEk was asking two questions:

    1. Is there a means of controlling the eCat reactor output other than zero output (no output thermal energy) and full thermal output (e.g., 20kW). Say, could it be controlled to output 10kW

    My question is the output of 10kw something you control via the internet connection?

    Thank you,

    Dear A. Rossi
    If you are selling heat right now, I suppose that will be visible in the balance sheets of the last quarter in your Sec filings?
    Happy new fire holidays.

  • Rolf Springmann

    Hello dear Mr. Rossi

    as mentioned your delivery will be heat only at the first.
    Furthermore you are thinking about producing electricity
    from the heat in late future.

    Do you know about a new technology whichlet expect effeciency
    of more than 50% by use of turbines? It is driven by supercritical
    CO2 (s-CO2). It is described at
    https://www.energy.gov/eere/solar/downloads/10-mw-supercritical-co2-turbine

    To you and your team a nice time over the holidays and
    an extremely successful year 2019 !
    Best regards
    Rolf

  • Andrea Rossi

    Steven N. Karels:
    1. yes
    2- as a matter of fact, I think the lifespan will be related to the effective operation time, but experience will tell better.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Dan Galburt:
    1- it is difficult for me to answer, because I need evidence from experimental proof, that I do not have, yet
    2- what do yu mean wirh “shelf life” ? The expected life of the Ecat SK is more than 20 years
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Gerard McEk:
    Oh, now I understand what you mean.
    Yes, it makes sense.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Gerard McEk

    Dear Andrea,
    Sorry for being unclear. What I intended to ask is that, if the reactor is only part of the time on, does then the time before you need to replace the reactor increase equally? Thus, only 50% on would prolong the time to replace the reactor with a factor two; so to two years. This assuming that 100% on would require a reactor replacement after one year.
    Thanks,
    Kind regards, Gerard

  • Dan Galburt

    Dear Dr. Rossi,

    You have stated that the E-Cat SK running at rated capacity will operate for 1 year without refueling, and that the overall device should last for 20 Years

    Questions:

    1. If the E-Cat SK is used for seasonal heating operating at an average of 1/3 rated output do you anticipate that the time it will run without refueling will increase significantly?

    2. What do you anticipate the shelf life of a fully fueled E-Cat-SK will be?

    I realize that neither of these questions involve issues that are critical in the short term, but any insight you can give will be appreciated

    Best Regards,

    Dan Galburt

    1. Is there a means of controlling the eCat reactor output other than zero output (no output thermal energy) and full thermal output (e.g., 20kW). Say, could it be controlled to output 10kW?

    2. Does the useful life (time betwee fuel rechargings) depend on the cummulative amount of time the eCat reactor is actually running? Or is the reactor time limitation (before re-fueling is required) independent of the amount of time it is actually outputting thermal energy?

  • Andrea Rossi

    Gerard McEk:
    1. Sorry, I do not understand your question. Can you make it clearer? The on/off thermostatic system has nothing to do with the charge change or the maintenance of the Ecat.
    2. It is totally useless.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.
