    Keon Vanderwall says: In my view, world leaders and their financiers are speculating that a Deus ex Machina will come and save the day.

    My reply: It’s here and it’s called E-Cat and its versions, such as the E Cat SKLep

  • Albert Ellul

    If you have a production plant in a EU country, EU clients will save on import duties/levies that the EU imposes on non-EU products on which VAT is included which again inflates further the price of the unit.

    Is a EU based production plant in your plans?

    Nuclear energy remains perpetually dependent on a very high level of managerial competence.
    It should come as no surprise that in the 1970s and 80s it was assumed that Western civilization was an achievement.

    But if the lights went out, and by extension the gas stations no longer sell gasoline and the freezers thaw, then it seems unwise to assume that “civilization” will remain somewhat mainstream.

    When we read the report of the experts who have examined the design of taxonomy that assesses future energy resources from an economic and financial point of view, I think that governments and investors do not consider collapse or devastation after all.

    In my view, world leaders and their financiers are speculating that a Deus ex Machina will come and save the day.

    dear mr Rossi,

    you had set the goal of 1 million pre-orders for the SKLed. Since this product has now been set aside in favor of the SKLep and considering the differences in components, manufacturing lines, price, etc. have you considered to decrease the number of pre-orders necessary to start production?

    I imagine one of your goals is to flood the market with so many units at once to make copy-cats prohibitively expensive. But please consider that once there are, let’s say, 500k working SKLep that people can see for themselves, the flood of new orders will be huge to say the least

  • Gerard McEk

    Dear Andrea,
    1. You replied to Steven Nicholes Karels that the SKLep has only two bipolar cables. One for the AI and one output. Can I assume that the via the bipolar AI cable the SKLep reactor can be started and stopped and supplied of very little or no input power?
    2. If I look to the picture on Ecat.com, I see two holes on the right side of the Ecat cube. These are the sockets for both cables?
    Thanks if you can answer.
    Happy new year to you and your family.
    Kind regards, Gerard

  • Andrea Rossi

    Steven Nicholes Karels:
    The system in the video has all the cables and the A.I shown for demonstration purposes.
    The SKLep as it will be is shown here:
    http://www.ecat.com
    There will be only one multipolar cable to the A.I., one to the load.
    The A.I. box will have the necessary displays

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi,
    the fact that you reached 300000 units ordered is stunning.
    Do you think that you will reach one million of SKLep sold ?
    Happy New Year !

  • Steven Nicholes Karels

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    Viewing the characterization report, it appears that the prototype SKLep has the following wires located on four positions on the top of the unit and two positions on the bottom of the SKLep:

    Top #1 Red wire and Black wire
    Top #2 Red wire and Black wire
    Top #3 Red wire and Black wire
    Top #4 Only one Black wire

    Bottom #1 Red wire and Black wire
    Bottom #2 Red wire and Black wire

    The top unit appears to have insulating electric tape holding the wires entering the SKLep.

    On the production units, do you plan:
    1. Connectorizing the wire entry into the SKLep
    2. On which side or sides will wires enter the SKLep – top bottom, left, right, front, back?
    3. Any change in the number of wires entering the SKLep?
    4. Will you be adding any visual indication of function – off. proper operation, warning, error, etc.?

    poppeye:
    Thank you for your opinion,

  • poppeye

    I think that at this stage, even potential major customers only order smaller quantities, as there is no experience with the behavior of a SKLep in a customer-specific setup.

    Have you already thought about the following option:
    The customer agrees a test installation with you and sets it up at your site.
    You only provide the necessary SKLep prototypes.
    The customer can then access the test installation via remote access at any time, for example to query measurement data or to send control commands.
    With this, the SKLep could be tested under various customer-specific scenarios in continuous operation without having to leave your laboratory.
    If the customer finds that the SKLep fulfills the promised performance data, I can imagine that significantly higher quantities will be ordered.
    And the collected test data would certainly be valuable for you too.

    Best Regards, poppeye

  • Robert Dorr

    Dear Dr, Rossi,

    Will you consider modifying your 1 million order level before start of production. I think that if you produced a few orders to several well placed individuals and their feedback on the operation of the units receive a positive review, at that point interest in the SKLep would explode and the 1 million number would quickly be reached. I would hate to see your invention die on the vine at the 300,000 to 400,000 order level. Just a little nudge to see this device that has the capability to change the energy needs of our civilization, in production and changing the worldwide power outlook. Whatever you decide, I wish you and your dedicated staff all the best in the quickly arriving future.

    Sincerely,

    Robert Dorr

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    on the SKLep Controller, a few questions:

    1. Can the SKLep + Controller operate on a “desert island” where there is a solar panel (outputting 12VDC) and no communications? In other words, no communication link to your facility?
    2. Does the Controller now or will it be in a future version have the ability to receive commands from a user’s computer, say by Ethernet?
    3. Same as #2 but be able to respond to requests from the user’s computer for status (voltage, temperature for each controlled SKLep)?
    4. What number of SKLeps can the 4″ x 4″ x 1″ Controller handle?

    Dear Andrea
    I guess most people will need:
    1.) 20 SKLep which in series provides 240 V.
    2.) There is also a need for a converter that converts DC to AC-50 or 60 HZ.
    3.) These must be built into a cabinet with space for a controller and a 12V accumulator with a charger.
    4.) Such cabinets must be able to be assembled in desired sizes. For ordinary homes, up to 5 will probably be enough.
    6.) The cabinet must also be equipped with a control unit that shows the status of the individual SKLep.
    7.) The world market is so large that there will probably be a need for 200 to 2000 production facilities for such for ordinary private homes. For the industry, special facilities will have to be designed.
    Sincerely, Svein H. Vormedal.

    HI Dr Rossi
    Congratulation to you and your team, I have followed your work for many yers. I was looking at some solar companies that sale complete energy systems for your house. I think the E-Cat would a great fit for these companies to produce an alternative system or supplement the there current systems.

    Gods blessign to you and your team.

    @Robert Altona
    I agree with you. Great, great presentation, the more I watch it, the more I understand its greatness, although after the first time I watched it I didn’t like it: eventually I understood how superficial I had been.

  • Kazimieras Liepis

    Dear Andrea Rossi, let me ask you a few questions:
    1. Are the SKLEP input and output voltages only 12 V DC?
    2. When ordering SKLEP AS 240 V, will they be equipped with a 12 V inverter for input voltage and 240 V output voltage for the corresponding ordered power?
    3. Is the price of the inverters included in the SKLEP 100 W unit price of $ 249 multiplied by the ordered quantity, or is it calculated separately by adding to the SKLEP units price?

    With best wishes
    Casimieras

  • Dear Andrea, assuming that a single controller can drive 20 LEPs, can you specify the minimum 3D size of a container that guarantees the necessary cooling without a fan and the starting battery? a portable 2kw LEP can have a lot of applications.
    Neri

  • Giuseppe

    Dear Andrea,
    MERRY CHRISTMAS to you, your family and your whole team. What do you think, is it theoretically possible if I install 5, or more, SKLEP in the hood of my electric car and by changing the relative connections, obviously done by a professional, recharge the car constantly?
    Best Regards, Giuseppe

    Hello Dr. Rossi
    I have ordered a number of your SKLep units, which I understand you will begin producing once you have one million units on order. How long do you expect it will be after that threshold is reached when you will begin shipping units to customers and at what number of units per month? Thanks.

  • Joseph Altona

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi,
    watching the video of the presentation through
    http://www.e-catworld.com
    and in particular the ssm mode shown when you reconnected the Ecat SKLep and the Wattmeter did not measure any increase of energy consumed, I understood the zero point energy at the base of the paper
    http://www.researchgate.net/publication/330601653_E-Cat_SK_and_long_range_particle_interactions
    Congratulations, freat presentation, great paper,
