    Dear Dr. Rossi,

    Is it correctly understood that the light product that you will launch after the presentation is for commercial use only, and not for private use. My question: is it for technical reasons that private persons can not use the light product or is it a distribution and sales issue or some other reason.

    Another question: It has been mentioned on the ECW that a first private use could be to luminate already installed solar cell panels with the E-Cat light product. Although this may be a somewhat odd application typically for dedicated enthusiasts, do you se any obstacle in doing so.

    Thank you very much for your very hard work.

    Dear Andrea,

    You once had a dream you shared with us about E-Cat powered street lights, so maybe individually self-powered 200 Watt LED cold White Street lights, definitely a market for millions of these around the world. Recently you mentioned dreams when asked about inspiration from Nikola Tesla, I get the feeling we are in for a surprise of something unexpected at the presentation.

    Regards,

    Keith Thomson.

    The Dirac lecture is very important: he has been the first one, as I am aware of, that understood that the electrons have radial moves at the speed of light, albeit they, being fermions, travel at a speed necessarily lower than c.

    Dr Rossi:
    If, as you said, the Ecat SKL will have a superior value in Lumens by orders of magnitude with a consume of Watthours lower by an order of magnitude respect the best existing leds, you will be marketing the most convenient lamps of the world by orders of magnitude, which means a reduction in the order of the 20% of the consume of fossil fuels.

    there is a very important statement of you in paragraph 1:
    “We can find the idea of an internal rapid motion (Zitterbewegung) at light- speed in electrons in P.A.M. Dirac Nobel lecture [Reference 17]”

  • Frank Acland

    Dear Andrea,

    You have said that the industrialization is ready for the first E-Cat SKL lighting product. Does this mean you have the technology in place to mass produce them?

    Many thanks,

    Dear Dr. Rossi,
    The 2021 Texas power crisis demonstrates that improvements in portable power generators could save lives and point to a large market for E-Cat SKL based portable generators. More than 4.5 million homes and businesses in Texas were left without power, some for several days. More than 80 lives were lost– to hypothermia, carbon monoxide poisoning (from people running cars or generators indoors for heating), loss of power to hospitals, etc.

    Currently over 1 million portable generators are sold per year (in the US) with an embedded base of roughly 10 times that (my guestimate based on 10 year lifespan). Gasoline powered inverter generators (which generate pure sine wave) would probably be similar devices and they currently cost roughly $125-$350 per KW of running power — plus the cost of fuel and maintenance — and without the deadly carbon monoxide emissions.

    If an E-Cat SKL based portable generator became available it could act as an entry point into a much broader category of E-Cat based power generating devices (rural power, off-grid power, mobile power, …).

    Question: Are there any current plans for an E-Cat SKL based portable power generator?

    Brice:
    Sorry if I too answer to your interesting comment, even if it is sent @ Hans.
    You are correct: the best LEDs yield 220 Lumens/Watt. Obviously we will compare this datum with the LM generated by the Ecat SKL and the energy consumed by the Ecat SKL, since the Ecat SKL will consume certain amount of electricity, but will generate electricity to enlight the LED lamp. If the Ecat will generate no gain, it will mean that the Ecat SKL is useless. If the Ecat SKL’s gain will be of orders of magnitude, we all will be very happy.
    Colour: our light is cold white.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.
    P.S.
    Obviously Hans is welcome to offer his own answer.

  • Brice

    @ Hans:
    What you say is correct for incandescent light but not at all for LEDs. An incandescent lamp is indeed like a black body radiator emitting electromagnetic radiation but at a higher frequency than an IR-heater. An LED is a semiconductor diode that works in a completely different way. What counts here is the lumens per Watt (let’s say visible light per Watt). Incandescent lamps are not very efficient they produce more heat than visible light. A regular 15 Watt- tungsten lamp gives +/- 8 lumen per Watt. A 100 Watt lamp gives +/- 14 lumen per Watt, almost double. And a 500 Watt halogen lamp produces 20 lumen per Watt (2.5 times more energy efficient!).

    If you compare this with LEDs, the cheapest no-name brands have an efficiency of 70 lumen per Watt, while the best LEDs produce 220 lumen per Watt (even more in cooled lab setups). So, if you compare a 15 W tungsten lamp with a high efficiency LED, the difference in light efficiency is factor 25!

    Did you know that pure green LEDs have theoretically the highest light efficiency? This is because our eyes are most sensitive at green light. The most dominant colour in sunlight is also green (check the black body radiator at 5500 Kelvin).

    I believe that Dr. Rossi has good reasons for choosing LEDs (thanks to his partner) but I’m not sure that everyone will be happy with it. It is like comparing apples with oranges (tungsten versus LED-light).

    Dear Dr. Rossi

    Congrats on the E-Cat SKL. I’m just learning of this new tech and have been reading up on this new E-Cat as well as the SK. I understand that the SKL is mainly or mostly electricity producing? While the SK mostly produces heat? Could they be used in tandem with the SKL powering the SK?

    Also, I’ve been reading about other related technologies for the E-Cat on the http://www.ecat.tech site.

    Like the Tesla Turbine, Tesla Pump, E-Cat Desalinization system. Will all of these work with a combo of SK and SKL as envisioned above?

    Any chance all of these can be made available to a small scale experimenter once the SKL comes out?

  • Ron Stringer

    If you can make heat and you can make light (both resistive, not inductive loads), you will help create a revolution in agriculture. I think one of your test installations is a greenhouse, no? The two most costly inputs to so-called “vertical farming” are light and heat. Moreover, if one can use the SKL to desalinate or purify water, food insecurity should quickly become a thing of the past.
    Have you looked at so-called “switched reluctance motors”? As I understand them (poorly, of course) they represent less of an inductive load than regular electric motors. Perhaps (almost certainly) you could teach us more about them.
    If you can produce a power supply for light, heat and movement, the world is changed dramatically for the better.
    I look forward to this!

    Hello Andrea,

    I look forward to replacing all that expensive electronics waste causing eye pain causing LED junk with the beautiful radiation of halogen lamps.

    Where the LEDs or gas discharge lamps do belong in my opinion, is in vertical farms where very intensive high-quality fruit and vegetables can be grown near the cities in 100% controlled and climate-proof environments.

    Have you ever tried to drive an old-fashioned DC motor with commutators and carbon brushes via the E Cat SKL?

    I am currently supervising some of those 40 HP machines that are 50 years old and still in near perfect condition with tens of millions of start-stop cycles. Even at full load they hardly produce any heat, which says a lot about the efficiency. For the first twenty years (between 1973 and 1993) they were fed via Ward-Leonard generators, and since 1993 (mainly analog) static converters have been used.

    These machines behave rather like an ohmic resistor: there are no sparks perceptible at the height of the carbon brushes. Maintenance is very easy.

    With best regards,

    Koen

    Dear Andrea,

    Your answer to my question regarding AC from a battery means that the E-Cat SKL lighting products do not have to be tied to a grid connection. A battery producing AC, charged by solar or wind could power the SKL lights — correct?

    Kind regards,

    Frank Acland

  • Xavier Pitz

    Dear Andrea & Hans,

    I think that using lights (LEDs or even old incandescent lights) to demonstrate the capabilities of E-Cat is a very good idea, especially if you perform online demonstration(s).
    People present around the E-Cat or the load can surely “feel” the heat when standing next to it and its load.
    It provides an additional sensory clue (additionally to the readings provided by the multi-meters) that something is going on upstream the electrical output from the E-Cat.
    This heat cannot be felt on a computer screen when doing an online demo. (but it may be translated to false colors by a thermal camera, but this could be tricky to feed the live output from such a camera to a video conferencing tool)
    Performing the demo with lights connected on the electrical output provides a direct visual clue that everybody can witness (while been physically present next to the E-Cat or while attending an online demo)

    Best Regards,

    Xavier Pitz

    Carissimo A.R.
    Sono convinto che quest’anno sia quello giusto affinché il tuo progetto si compia definitivamente. Mi chiedo se esiste un luogo che possa ospitare un evento così importante per tutta l’umanità?
    Dopo tanti anni passati ad aspettare e mai cedere alla tentazione di abbandonare la vicenda finalmente una piccola/grossa rivincita. Tante sono state le “persecuzioni” a cui siamo stati sottoposti come belivers della prima ora ma adesso a poche settimane dalla grande verità, tutte le cattiverie passano in secondo piano, quasi non fossero mai state pronunciate.
    Ho sempre creduto in Lei e ne prof. Focardi……

  • Jitse

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    Your response to Frank Acland (AC) question leads to some following questions:
    1 Does that mean that an AC output voltage is also supplied by the ecat SKL?
    2 if that is correct, the ecat SKL can therefore work synchronously via an adjustable isolation transformer with a public network.

    Best regards Jitse

  • Gerard McEk

    Dear Andrea,
    I hope you can answer:
    1. Will you demonstrate: a. just one Ecat SKL with a LED light or b. will it be a cluster of Ecats driving multiple LED (flood)lights?
    2. Will Partner(s) join this demonstration and introduce ‘Ecat inside’ product(s)?
    How will the Ecat be promoted?
    3a. An energy generator
    3b. A miracle
    3c. A breakthrough in physics
    3d. A new ‘green’ energy source
    3e. An invention that will change the world, a paradigma change
    3f. Your words?
    4. Will you and your Partners actively seek competition with other energy sources?
    5. Has the independent agency that has tested and investigated the Ecat SKL already officially confirmed your claims?
    6. Is the presentation coming: a. Sooner? ; b. Later?
    Thank you, kind regards, Gerard

  • Hans

    Dear Mr. Rossi,
    lights are nothing else but electric heating. Or where should be a difference between 20 bulb lights each 100 Watt in comparison to an electric heater of 2000 Watt. Both have resistive loads. If an e-cat can handle lights it should be able zu handle electric heating.
    Best regards

    Dear Andrea!

    We are very pleased with the latest news that the presentation will take place this year and that you and your partner will present a commercial product, marking the beginning of a new era in energy – clean and safe energy without radioactive waste and harmful emissions. It is symbolic that the triumphant march of alternating current and electrification of the planet began after, in 1893, when Nikola Tesla and Westinghouse managed to receive a huge order for 200,000 lamps for the World’s Fair in Chicago. It’s great that the march of new energy will start with a big illumination. …

    With great respect and wishes for success,
    Irina and Vitaly Uzikov

    In September (2020-09-20 15:29 answer to Svein H. Vormedal) it seemed as if you and your partner had a focus on mobile energy-changing products. In January (2021-01-06 09:18 reply to Norma) your focus seems to have shifted to creating electricity for hydrogen production. And most recently, the focus seems to be on creating energy for lamps.
    Does this mean that there are three different partners that you work with or does the change of use depend on how the properties of ECAT have turned out?
    Kind regards
