    Dear Dr. Rossi
    Have you already decided on a date for the conclusion of “plan A” and the start of “plan B”?

    if so, when?

    thanks if you can answer

    Best Regards

    Hi Andrea,
    if your concern is about the funds available at the order time of big buyers, you should make different prices for wholesale resellers and private customers, in this way the more ecat a reseller will purchase, the more funds will have in a very short time.
    If the E-CAT will work as described, there are no risks of bankrupt for the resellers.

    Best regards

  • Greetings Andrea,

    On the Leonardo SKLep page (https://ecat.com/ecat-sklep), it is indicated it can run with an e-bike and by using a standard rechargeable battery. Could you remind me how this relates to the discussion that it still needs a mains connection?

  • Jan Šrajer

    Mr.Rossi
    I am reading the theoretical publication https://www.researchgate.net/publication/330601653_E-Cat_SK_and_long-range_particle_interactions
    – as a layman and invention enthusiast and I must say that your work fits into the mosaic. Joseph Papp noble engine, Tariel Kapanadze – coil producing energy using a synchronized magnetic vortex and spark gap, Ruslan Kulabuchov from the city of Riga, apparently using the Aharonov-Bohm effect – high-voltage nanosecond pulses acting on a current solenoid.However, none of these inventors were able to bring their work to a successful conclusion for various reasons.
    I am convinced that you have the most difficult challenge ahead of you.
    All the best J.Š.

    Dear Dr. Rossi,
    Why are you afraid of insufficient demand for your energy device in the midst of a major energy crisis?
    Best regards,

    Dear Andrea
    Most of us have one or more battery-powered hand tools.
    My Ryobi has an 18 V rechargeable lithium battery that holds 72 Wh.
    This weighs over 700 grams and has a slightly larger volume than Ecat.
    It gives an energy density of 100 Wh / kg.
    This is the same as an Ecat of 250 grams delivers in one hour.
    Ecat’s energy density is then: 4 x 100,000 what my Ryobi battery holds.
    For me to find out if Ecat lasts for 100,000 hours takes time.
    I can see in one day that an Ecat gives the same as 100 such Ryobi units.
    By extending the test time to one month, I will see that a 250 g Ecat delivers the same as 3000 Ryobi for a total weight of just over 2 tons.
    After a month of production of approx. 55,000 units, clear market reactions should be present.
    These are the ones that will determine if you get one million units delivered in 18 months.
    Starting a production without a million Ecats to order will be successful if the first 55,000 meet expectations.

    By connecting 10 Ecat in series to a simple 1200 W panel oven and supplying these with 10 W from the mains, a long-term test can be performed at the home of anyone and everyone with a 120 V mains.
    Regards Svein H. Vormedal

  • Dear Dr. Rossi,
    thanks for your work!

    A)will there be a possibility to also produce three-phase current with the ecats?

    B)or do we need an external 3-phase inverter for this application?

  • Dear Dr. Rossi,
    thanks for your work!

    A)Could we run a 1000W/230VAC van heater, by running 4x 12Vin/230Vout Ecats by connecting them at the outside in parallel?

    B)Does it need an additional device to switch them parallel?

    C)Or is the electrical phase automatically synchronized between parallel connected 230VAC-out Ecats?

    Dear Dr. Rossi

    A new suggestion for exposing SKLep to a larger audience.

    Book an exhibition booth at a technical or consumer electronics conference. Display the SKLep in action with a visual load such as a string of patio lights. Put in power meters/voltmeters/ammeters all over the place to show “power gain”. Use a cumulative power meter such as https://www.amazon.com/Consumption-Electricity-Analyzer-Overload-Protection/dp/B07M9KJRKP to show cumulative KWh during the show, probably only will give you one days worth of KWh if you unplug it overnight. This will show that the system cannot be a battery or such. Have a scale to weigh each of the SKLep boxes.

    Handout would list details of all test instruments used, brand, model, accuracy etc.

    Take home the equipment every night to keep your IP safe.

    Maybe this is riskier, but offer to put in anyone’s measuring instrument in place of yours, after you verify it works properly. For example they can bring their own wattmeter, you verify it gives same wattage measurement for a test set up (simple A/C in, your meter, their meter, load, all in series) then put it into your display to show the display reading is real.

    Thank you for your opinion,

  • Wilfried Babelotzky

    Dear Andrea,

    I’m surprised at the 18-month production time. Then the reverse engineering argument is now invalidated.
    To rule out plagiarism, you have to scale up much faster.
    You shouldn’t dream. The Chinese will put 5000 engineers to work on reverse engineering, and when they have succeeded they will produce 1 million per week.
    Just an opinion, but backed up by projects I know.

    Kind regards
    Wilfried

  • Andrea Rossi

    Darko:
    Obviously we need to be sure that the 1000000 units will be paid before manufacturing. We don’t ask payments before the units are ready for delivery, all we ask is a proof of funds that guarantees the big buyers have the money available, otherwise we’d risk a bankrupcy.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Darko

    Dear Dr. Rossi,
    If the process of manufacturing and delivery will last 18 months, and it hasn’t even started yet, why the big buyers have to show you the money right now? Couldn’t they borrow the money shortly before the purchase?
    Best regards,
    D.

    Dear dr. Rossi,
    some days ago, you gave the information, that production and delivery oft he 1000 k SKleps will need about 18 month.
    1.If I want to order additonal units after testing the first devices, do I have to wait until the whole delivery of the preordered SKleps to the customers is fullfilled and then beginns the next turn?
    2.If the answer to 1 is yes, it would make sence to order now enough units for the first time?
    3.Is a 230 V AC unit able to work parallel to the grid?
    4.If the chosen mode is 230 V AC, consiting of some combined SKleps ex works, is it possible to disassemble them later to 12 V single units?
    5.Five days ago, you told us: „theoretically we should be close to the target, but the real situation could be quite different.“ Means this the target is to see on the horizon and it needs only a short time to start delivery?

    Thank you for the trouble and the time you donate for us nosy customers – Andreas

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    1. Is one of your aspirational goals for the 1kW (and larger) SKLep units a higher specific power density (W/kg)?
    2. The same question for volumetric power density (W/m3)?

  • WaltC

    Dr. Rossi,
    Speaking of Ecat SKLeps in electric cars, Consumer Reports released a survey today about top concerns people have with respect to buying Electric Vehicles and:

    “When asked about the top concerns preventing them from making the jump from gas to electric, 61% cited charging logistics, followed by 55% saying the number of miles the vehicle can go per charge and 52% saying the costs of buying and maintaining an electric-only vehicle.”

    So an SKLep option would largely solve 2 of the 3 dominant concerns.

    Best Wishes,
    WaltC

    Dear Dr. Rossi: Have you worked out all of the bugs to allow the E-CAT SK-LEP to work with solar panel inverters? Since you have not shown any pictures of such a configuration, or shared any make/model of inverter that has been tested with the E-Cat SK-LEP one has to wonder if there are still problems with the SK-LEP’s compatibility with solar panel inverters. Please try to alleviate these fears with some actual evidence. If you can present such evidence, I will gladly increase my number of pre-order units, and I am sure many other people feel the same way. A simple photo of a known working inverter connected to an E-CAT SK-LEP will sell hundreds of thousands of units very quickly. Unless you are hiding known problems with the E-CAT SK-LEP I would think you would be excited to share this information with the public.

    To Steven Nicholes Karels
    Thank you for your information on SKLep.
    By plotting it in the Ragone diagram, we immediately find out the huge specific energySKLep. Only plutonium has more. The specific peak power is also very high, greater than gasoline. At the same time, the generator is only at the beginning of its development.
    All the best J.Š.

  • Steven Nicholes Karels

    Dear Readers,

    Some questions have come up regarding Ragone Plots, Specific Power and Specific Energy of the SKLep.

    Parameters:

    1. SKLep required 1W (or less) of input and provides 100W (or more) of output.
    2. The mass of the SKLep is reported to be 250 grams or 0.25 kg.
    3. The operating time is reported to be 10 years.

    Specific Power = 99W / 0.25 kg = 396W / kg.
    Specific Energy = 99W * 10 yrs * 365 day/yr ^ 24 hr/day / 0.25 kg = 34,689,600 W-hr/kg

    by comparison, a Tesla battery has a specific energy of about 233 W-hr/kg.
