    Dear Andrea, So it sounds like production could possibly start sometime next year.

    Warm regards,

  • Gerard McEk

    Dear Andrea,
    Apologies for my previous way of questioning. I tried to put some humor in it, but reading it again,I understand it was very unclear.
    What I intended to ask:
    1. I guess that when you say that the end of testing is in sight, it is in fact quite nearby and you know the end date?
    2. How long will it take before we (privately) can actually have an Ecat SKL ourselves and use it?
    Thanks, kind regards, Gerard

  • Tom Conover

    Dear Andrea,

    You can foresee the product release in the near future. I can’t find my glasses. This year or next year perhaps? Maybe longer?

    Thanks in advance for your patience with us.

    Sincerely,
    Tom Conover

    Dear Andrea,

    Excluding charge lifespan, would the hardware lifespan of an E-Cat SKL be comparable with the lifespan of a domestic gas boiler, say 10 to 15 years?

    Regards,

    Keith Thomson.

    Gerard McEk:
    1. correct
    2. sorry, I do not understand your question. Can you kindly rephrase it ?

    Dear Andrea,
    I appreciated that you confirmed to me in a previous comment that the end of testing is in sight.
    Just a few questions about that, if I may:
    1. I take it that you do not need a binoculars to spot that end?
    2. If we were to have a ‘long range’ capabilities, would you think we would be able to interact with it?
    Thanks and kind regards with a smile, Gerard

    Dear Andrea
    As I see it are the prices on the charge refueling units, the most relevant price!
    Regards: SHV

  • Andrea Rossi

    Svein H. Vormedal:
    Thank you for your trust.
    The charge refueling has an irrelevant price.
    Warm Regards,

  • Svein H. Vormedal

    Dear Andrea
    The report from Researchgate shows that you do not have to spend money on marketing, but you have to invest in a “queue organizer”
    I also have a question about the price ratio between a complete unit and a refueling part?

    hello Chuck, Andrea

    Toddy I heard what really happened during the lightning strike: about 150 m from my house, lightning struck an apartment building, elevators and all electrical equipment broke down (TV, computers, etc.), that violent blow even at a great distance still had that effect on my panels and inverter. the earthing of the system was OK, so it was not that problem. Lightning security must be a problem to think and cleared.

    With regards Jitse

    Hello Mr Rossi,

    many people urged you to contact Tesla or other EV manufacturers to integrate the E-Cat into the cars. But this would require a very long and complicated certification phase.

    Nevertheless the EV market could be a very huge opportunity for your company: Not integrated into the cars but for a widespread charging station network. There are several new EV companies coming to market soon who will push the market further: Rivian, Nikola, Bollinger, Lordstown and others and “the old companies” like Audi, Ford, GM, BMW etc etc.

    An E-Cat driven widespread charging network which would be open to all these car manufacturers. E-Cat charging stations could be build even in the most remote places. No need for massive solar cell parks, no need for power plants nearby.

    This network would give EVs a massive push. And with Teslas satellite internet there would be no problem to bill the customers even far away from standard mobile networks or stationary internet.

    In my humble opinion that would be an important and smart move for Leonardo Corp.

    We all hope to hear good news regarding certification soon.

    Best regards,

    Chris

    Dear Andrea,

    How long approximately does it take you to build a single SKL unit these days?

    a) hours
    b) days
    c) weeks

    Dear Andrea Rossi

    I am also not a specialist in solar panels, but I checked it and it should be technically possible if the Ecat DC output volts max and min is in the same bandwidth and the kWh (of the ecat does (not tolled what it is called)) output is not too large. It is a big advantage that the solar panels can then be removed and the inverter can be moved to the ground floor together with the ecat. An DC + AC network can be targeted the 100% CO2 neutral homes like policy is reality.

  • Gerard McEk

    Dear Andrea,
    Just a few questions, while I am expectantly waiting for the presentation to come:
    I assume an early product can be a home heating and electrical power source. Obviously the power demand changes all the time. The Ecat should be able to cope with that.
    I assume the delivered power is not interrupted by on-off control.
    1. Can the Ecat SKL output power be modulated depending on the load connected?
    2. If yes, is the efficiency affected by the modulation?
    Thank you, kind regards, Gerard

  • KeithT

    Dear Andrea,

    I like your description of the process; “E-Cat, Shoulder’s charge clusters, UDH”, condensed and concise.

    In my mind I visualise an expanded version, some of the process steps in the sequence of interactions between electromagnetics and electrons being as follows;

    E-Catalyst + plasma > Aharonov-Bohm effect > Casimir effect > Rossi effect > proton-electron aggregates (UDH) + energy > reverse Aharonov-Bohm effect > electricity.

    Is the “Rossi effect” to be used in academic journals as a description of a specific critical part of the overall sequence, or do you view the “Rossi effect” as describing the complete energy production sequence, E-Cat > Rossi effect > electricity?

    Regards,

    Keith Thomson.

  • Chuck Davis

    Dear Jitse, I recommend that you check the grounding of your solar system, I suspect that you have a faulty grounding system and that the installers are responsible. The grounding should have protected your system.

    Dear Andrea,

    A couple of days ago, you told Franco that you would publish a calendar soon that would inform as to when SKL pre-orders would be possible. Assuming the calendar will contain more than that one item, might I inquire if you will also be sharing timeframes for any of the following:

    1) Conclusion of Client Testing?
    2) Conclusion of Certification Testing?
    3) Issuance of Certification?
    4) Date/Location of Public Presentation?
    5) Availability of SKL photos, videos and/or specifications?
    6) Start of SKL Manufacturing?
    7) Completion of Leonardo/Client SKL-based Prototype?

    Also on other subjects:

    8) Have longer duration partner-site tests begun?
    9) Will partners who have tested the SKL be free to share the results if they so choose?

    As always, thanks for generously entertaining our questions.

    Bill

  • Chuck Davis

    Dear Andrea, Do you expect that ecat production will commence soon after A. Completion of certification or B. Your presentation.

    Warm regards,

  • Andrea Rossi

    Jitse:
    I am not an expert of solar cells, but it seems to me that the power of the inverter can remain the same of the power of the solar cells; I don’t see how a more powerful inverter could protect the cells from a lightning, that has a power by orders of magnitude higher. Anyway, take advice from your provider, that surely is more expert than I am. I would suggest to install urgently a proper protection against lightning, independently from the solar cells, to protect everything you have on site, life included. The broken solar system sounds me like a warning.
    Thank you for your trust in our work,
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Jitse

    hello Andrea Rossi,
    Last night my solar system was hit by lightning, the 10 solar cells and the inverter (2.2 kW) are definitely broken. Is it wise to buy a larger inverter and the same cells, for example the 5 kWh or the 15 kWh or the 20 kWh? As soon the Ecat can be installed I hope can buy one and install it as the first in The Netherlands and publish the result via internet and television.

    With regards
    Jitse IJtsma

    1- no, charge has to be changed
    2- how can I make a comparision with a thing that does not exist ?
    3- No, it does not, because there are cases in which the SPT can’t be applied, like also, for example, in catalyzed reactions

    Dear Gregory Daigle,

    some consideration regarding your interesting post of 2020/10/24 at 10.27 PM:

    In my paper
    http://www.researchgate.net/publication/330601653_E-Cat_SK_and_long_range_particle_interactions
    is hypothesized that electron spin can be hbar only in very peculiar environment (E-Cat, Shoulder’s charge clusters, UDH). This is strictly related to a specific zitterbewegung electron model where the charge orbit circumference is equal to the electron Compton wavelength and charge is not point-like. The fermionic character (spin=hbar/2) of the electron is a consequence of the electron precession.

    Consequently we disagree with this affirmation present in Peter Rowlands paper “If we take bosons as products of fermion interactions, then fermions are the only known fundamental structures in nature, and experimental evidence to date suggests that they are point-like, and in this sense singularities”

    It’s however important to highlight the importance of nilpotent QM.

    An electromagnetic interpretation of nilpotent Dirac-like equation has been presented in reference 14 of my paper. In this equation (eq. 27) the electromagnetic four potential A seen/generated by the electron’s charge is always a nilpotent (light-like) vector (i.e. A^2=0)
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    In your reply yesterday to Franco you mentioned the opportunity to make preorders.
    This triggered me to some related questions:

    1. When are you going to ask for new confirmations of the preorders you already received via ecat.com?
    2. When confirmed again, will you honor the original first time of the preorder when setting up the waiting list for SKL deliveries.
    3. I made a preorder 8 years ago, do you think it will be delivered before the end of 2021?

    Kind regards
    Sven B

  • Steven N. Karels

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    I previously posted “In your effect, is there a mass conversion that releases energy?” to which you replied “No.”

    So, the eCat-SKL generates energy without transforming matter into energy, is neither chemical nor nuclear energy based (fission or fusion), and generates large amounts of electrical energy (kW levels). It also can run on its own generated energy.

    1. Since it apparently consumes no fuel, is it not likely to run “forever” until some unrelated breakdown occurs?
    2. How does this differ from an apparent “Perpetual Energy Generator”?
    3. If this is correct, does not the eCat-SKL violate established laws of thermodynamics?

  • Richard B Fox

    Dear Dr. Rossi,

    Congratulations on your progress, which is of great importance.

    I participated in a political parade today here in Silicon Valley that must have had 150 cars and trucks in it, quite a sight!

    For your commercial roll-out of the Ecat SKL you might wish to consider a similar parade; led by an electric car, such as a Tesla, powered exclusively by one or more Ecats to demonstrate the range and reliability of the Ecat-powered car. Coast-to-coast without re-fueling, stopping only briefly for driver changes, would be quite a feat, highly visible and convincing, like the Wright brothers first flight at Kitty Hawk. Your website could show the car’s progress in real time which, I think, would draw many spectator “chase cars” to join the caravan, perhaps in the hundreds by the end, increasing the event’s visibility. The chase cars of interested members of the public that choose to join could attest to one and all that there were no pit stops for refueling. I, and many others, would love to be at the finish line.

    Best wishes,

    Richard

    Franco:

    Soon I will communicate our calendar: in that occasion you will be free to make a preorder.
