    Dr Rossi,
    How is going on the R&D of the Ecat SK Leonardo? When do you think you could able to present it?

  • Andrea Rossi

    Buck:
    Yes, you are correct. All started from that prototype, dubbed “Marie Curie”, eventually evolved into the QX, presented in Stockholm on Nov 24 2017 and then in the SK, introduced in the market by the streaming in http://www.ecatskdemo.com
    Now, with the SK Leonardo we are arriving, but not yet arrived to the full ssm, by which the Ecat generates electricity to power at least itself, and I am very optimist. The long way has been came through also thanks to important progress under the theoretical point of view.
    Thank you for your kind attention to our work,
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

    Juerg Breitenstein:
    Of course.

    Mr Rossi,
    Will you tell us, when possible, what you are doing with your technology in Sweden, the home Country of Greta Thunberg ?
    All my blessing to your Team.

    Good Day Andrea:

    I just wanted to give a reminder. It was four years ago, to this very day, that you shared in two posts, first with Hugh DeVries then Frank Acland, about the advent of a new evolution for your evolving ECat. You called it Marie Curie.

    If I understand correctly, this was a dramatic improvement. Marie Curie opened the door to your plasma based reactors including the Quark, then the ECat SK, and now the ECat SK-Leonardo.
    You and your team have come a long way.

    My best to you, your team, and your wife.
    Buck

    Ted Szeredy:
    In Stockholm we presented a QX measured with calorimetry, while on January 31st 2019 we introduced the heat sale service and made a spectrometric measurement corroborated by a calorimetry. Honestly, we are proud of both.

    Dr Rossi,
    do you think it is more important the demonstration I found googling “November 24 2017 Ecat QX Stockholm demonstration” or the demo made on January 31st 2019 here:

    I am convinced we are going toward the right direction, with better results than Sterling and PV adoption.

  • Sharla Knezovich

    Dr Rossi,
    in your paper
    http://www.researchgate.net/publication/330601653/E-Cat_SK_and_long_range_particle_publication
    it is very interesting your interpretation of the applicability to LENR od the Casimir Force, based on the Compton wavelength.

  • Rick57

    Dear Andrea,

    if, after working very hard for moreless one year on direct electricity generation, you still did not reach continuous SSM (that requires a conversion efficiency of about 5%), it seems to me very difficult to reach direct conversion efficiencies of 50% or higher (at least in the short-mid terms), to not consider the adoption of existing electric generation devices such as Stirling engines or PV cells.

    I hope I am wrong, but a comment on your side on the above would be very appreciated.

    Best Regards,
    Riccardo

  • Raffaele Bongo

    Hello A. Rossi

    It often happens that when you solve the problems of a new product other problems arise.

    1 – Have you solved all the problems you had at the beginning of the year with industrial boilers, or did other problems occur?

    2 – Is the deployment of boilers consistent with your business plan?

    All the best for Leonardo E-Cat R & D

    Best regards

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    You posted that you do not have the gift of being ubiquitous

    u·biq·ui·tous

    1. present, appearing, or found everywhere.
    “his ubiquitous influence was felt by all the family”
    synonyms: omnipresent, ever-present, present everywhere, everywhere, all-over, all over the place, pervasive, all-pervasive, universal, worldwide, global;
    rife, prevalent, predominant, very common, popular, extensive, wide-ranging, far-reaching, inescapable
    “tracking stray dogs may soon be easier thanks to the ubiquitous microchip”

    I believe your loyal fans were asking that there be a single, public accessible place that loyal fans might attend. Perhaps a vacant classroom at a Miami university or a public hall.

  • Hatchette

    The last paper on the JoNP has been published in April: when will be published the next?

  • Marco

    Dear Andrea,

    you stated that the ECat do produce a magnetic field.
    1) Is it constant or variable?
    2) If it is variable, have you tried to extract energy and if this impair the ssm and/or the normal operation?
    3) If it is variable, do you extract electrical energy mainly or exclusively from this magnetic field?
    4) Since i suggested you some time ago to send RF pulses to the charge, is it acting as an energy amplifier, returning the rf pulse amplificated?

    Magnetic regards,
    Marco.

    Dear Mr. Andrea Rossi,
    About the sale of heat, I indiscreetly am curious to know if more and more companies are turning to your company for their heat needs.
    Thank you in advance for your reply and my best wishes to you and your staff

    Bernie Morrissey:
    Your request is analogous to many others around the world, but I do not have the gift to be ubiquitous. The sole way to be ubiquitous for a not so much gifted person like me will be with a direct streaming.

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    I have a special request. You say it is possible to
    unveil the E-Cat SK Leonardo maybe yet this year. WOW that would be a great moment in history! I humbly ask that you consider presenting it where your loyal followers can be present during the presentation. I know that I would love to be there during such a great event.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    Hi Andrea,
    If I can ask (and if someone hasn’t already asked)
    in the last self sustaining mode experiments, did you see if the device spontaneously generates a magnetic field around itself? Or does it generate no magnetic field?
    Best wishes
    Giuliano Bettini.

  • Stephen

    Dear Andrea

    It’s amazing following how this is developing. This could really be s game changer if it all works out.

    I’m not sure if this has been asked before but I wonder:

    A) if the thermal output ion the E-Cat SK Leonardo when producing its own electricity is the same or similar to that if the E-Cat SK?

    Even if less thermal power is produced but positive this self sustaining aspect makes it still substantially improved practically.

    B) If less out put power could you indicate a rough percentage?

    C) I wonder if there is s configuration trade off. I.e less over all thermal power for increased electrical power generation? Or if these processes are independent.

    I wish you and your team continued success with the development of the technology towards an optimum product.

    Best Regards
    Stephen

  • Greg Leonard

    Dear AR and Steven Karels.
    It is worth remembering that the e-cat delivers high temperatures, which is much more useful than the low temperature used in thermo-electric conversion. E-cat heat is very low entropy.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Steven N. Karels:
    Sorry, I forgot to answer this question.
    The efficiency of these systems is not worth the heat they consume. They are usable, but not convenient.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Steven N. Karels

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    You did not address the second question of my posting:

    2. Can you explain why other, more standard, thermal-to-electricity conversion methods were not pursued? such as:
    a. Photovoltaic cells converting the light produced by the eCat-SK?
    b. Thermoelectric generation using the thermal energy produced by the eCat?
    Note: if the average COP is very high, then even low efficiency conversions should work?

  • Andrea Rossi

    Gerard McEk:
    Maybe.
    Thank you for your kind sustain,
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Gerard McEk

    Dear Andrea,
    Considering your answer to Giuseppe: Do you expect that if the E-cat Leonardo can run without the need to connect to the grid, it will be easier to sell it also for domestic and mobile applications because there will be less governmental rules and guidelines in laws that applies?
    Thanks and all the wisdom to you and your team to accomplish your baby. Gerard McEk

    Why don’t you publish your secrets for the sake of mankind ?

  • Frank Acland

    Dear Andrea,

    I agree with the comment by Jody below — a demonstration of infinite COP/permanent ssm E-Cat with no external input power would be an irrefutable testament of the reality of the E-Cat.

    My question is, where and when do you plan to do this demonstration?

    Many thanks,

    Frank Acland

  • Andrea Rossi

    Bernie Morrissey:
    We can do both.

  • Martyn Aubrey

    Hi Steven,

    Yes, you are probably right, but it is good to dream.

    Perhaps the answer would be to replace all internal combustion engines with steam engines driven directly from the heat output of the Ecats.

    You never know, we could be heading straight into the Age of “Steam Punk”.

    I’ll just have to buy a very long coat, a tall top-hat and a pair of brass-framed goggles!!

    Jules Verne Rocks!!

    Spiffing Regards

    P.S. I already own a very, very, small share in an Airship, which has actually flown test flights, but sadly also crashed twice.

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    Is the electrical current produced by the E-Cat SK Leonardo a dc current or ac current.

    Thanks
    Bernie Morrissey

  • Steven N. Karels

    Martyn Aubrey,

    Good comments. However, it should be remembered that conversion efficiency must also be high enough. For example, it the eCat produces 60kW of electricity – enough to run a full size automobile – but generates 3 MW in doing so, the heat produced would cause cooling problems and this would be significant. So sufficient efficiency is an assumption. If the efficiency consideration was met, then the onboard battery would need to be of sufficient size to handle high power demands (accelerating, going up a hill) or driving to a repair shop if the eCat should fail. A good engineer would size the eCat electrical output to meet the AVERAGE car power requirements, plus a little reserve. This would minimize cooling requirements, and costs. Another assumption is that the eCat system would not cost more than the battery components it is replacing.

    If an eCat option added $10,000 to the sales price, it would have an impact on the option being ordered. Even assuming Andrea Rossi can make this technology commercially available, there are many considerations that will need to be addressed.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Martyn Aubrey:
    1- yes, but attention: infinite COP to supply heat is very close, about electricity generation i excess more time will be necessary.
    2- moreless the same.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.
