    Dr Rossi,
    the paper
    http://www.researchgate.net/publication/330601653_E-Cat_SK_and_long_range_particle_interactions
    shows clearly that you abandoned for good the field of the cold fusion (LENR) and entered the field of the zero point energy (ZPE); this paper is very important , because it is the first paper in the history of Physics that gives rigorously experimental evidence of the fact that the ZPE can be exploited for practical use: it is an immense, universal source of energy.
    The video of the presentation of the Ecat SKLed on December 9 (I searched “Youtube Ecat SKLep presentation of December 9 2022”) is a further evidence of it.
    All the best,
    Alfred

    Andre,

    I understand that most of your order volume to date has come from larger quantity orders. Assuming these orders come from larger and more sophisticated firms, I have some questions:

    1) Have some of these firms been able to conduct tests of the SKLep at your facility prior to placing their orders?
    2) If answer #1 is yes, how large an order need be placed for such testing to be allowed?
    3) What other qualifications (firm size, technical expertise, etc.) are required to conduct such tests?

    Thanks so much for your answer and God’s speed on your work.

    Bill

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi,
    Navigating http://www.e-catworld.com I clicked the link to the video of the presentation of the Ecat SKLed and I want to congratulate for it: I appreciated this clear, short and precise presentation and the measurements, made in a way that any expert of the art can understand. I have a question, though: have been able the guys who made the measurements to control the calibration of the resistance and of the Wattmeter ?

    Thank you for your insight and suggestions,

  • Dear Dr. Rossi
    I’ve been holding up on the following suggestion pending more info about order rate drop off, but your comment back to @Hans prompted me to post this suggestion.
    Referring to my post from earlier today, it looks like the order rate may have dropped to under 1000/day since you were “close” to 800K two weeks ago, from a peak of about 33K per day. Perhaps it is time for you to reconsider your marketing approach, at least the one we see from you posts, namely word of mouth/networking only.

    The suggestion is, don’t wait to you reach the 1,000,000 order mark for live demos at your facility. Instead, do focused marketing, getting in touch with specific companies who should “get in on the ground floor” with the introduction of the SKLep technology or they will be in trouble as others adopt this technology. Not too large a company or they will try to bully you, and IMO are less trustworthy than a smaller company can be. Offer demonstration at your facility, allow them to bring their own power/voltage/current measurement equipment.

    An example company to contact is Portable Electric at About Portable Electric | Clean Portable Power Stations | e-Generators (portable-electric.com)
    I am sure if you ask the, your ECAT followers on this web site will provide you with other promising companies to contact directly. You would have to figure out who in the organization to contact, maybe by phone is best???

  • INTERIM UPDATE ON ORDER RATE
    There is increasing “chatter” about the order rate dropping off. Dr. Rossi has not reached 800K orders even though he was “close” two weeks ago. But I can do an interim update using estimates and discuss the results.

    DATA:
    Dr. Rossi reported “close to 800000 units” on Feb. 4, 2022.
    To me this means at least 775K units or I would not be saying “close to”, but of course this is totally subjective. We can use this as an estimate of min orders on this date.
    We can use a max of 790K orders on same date.
    Let’s assume we reach 800K orders tomorrow.

    In this case the update for estimated 775K on Feb. 4 is:
    _ DATE_____QTY___Avrg.QTYperDAY
    12/27/2021__300K_____17K
    12/30/2021__400K_____33K
    1/2/2022____500K_____33K
    1/6/2022____600K_____25K
    1/21/2022___700K_____6.7K
    2/4/2022____775K_____5.4K__QTY_Example1
    2/19/2022___800K_____1.7K__Assume hit 800K tomorrow

    In this case the update for estimated 790K on Feb. 4 is:
    _ DATE_____QTY___Avrg.QTYperDAY
    12/27/2021__300K_____17K
    12/30/2021__400K_____33K
    1/2/2022____500K_____33K
    1/6/2022____600K_____25K
    1/21/2022___700K_____6.7K
    2/4/2022____790K_____6.4K__QTY_Example2
    2/19/2022___800K_____0.7K__Assume hit 800K tomorrow

    So current order rate continues to drop, and certainly appears to be down to less than 2K per day, maybe down to less than 1K per day.
    Dr. Rossi remains optimistic of reaching the 1,000,000 order goal within the year. Maybe there is info he has not shared, for instance in discussions with potential large order customers that could put him over the target. But the numbers we see are very discouraging.

    DATA EXTRAPOLATION:
    The two extremes have a good least squares fit to an exponential decay of orders from the 1/2/2022 date, with an R-squared value of better than 0.98.
    There was some discussion re the order rate between @EnzoAmato and Dr. Rossi using the term asymptotically/asymptotical. A simple exponential decay is asymptotic to zero, ie it gets closer and closer to zero as time goes on. I do not think this is the true case (ie does not go to zero), but it sure looks to be asymptotical to a very low order rate. An estimate of the maximum asymptotic order rate is the last value of the data set. If the order rate is the worst case scenario above of 700 per day average, it will take almost 10 months to reach 1,000,000.

    For further discussion see my “join the team” post of 2022-01-01 20:17 LarryG where I encouraged the bloggers to spread the word for fear the order rate would drop off too much.

    Also see my post of 2022-01-16:16 LarryG where I hypothesized that Dr. Rossi’s current customer base is the core ECAT community, and essentially this customer base is taped out, only trickle of orders will be coming in.

    It is looking more an more like this may be the case and reaching 1,000,000 orders this year is at increasing risk. Unless Dr. Rossi has “something up his sleeve” of course.
    There is almost zero press about SKLep if you do a google search. So following my own advice I have reached out to two science news writers drawing their attention to the SKLep. No response back after about a week, even though both promise a response to news tips.

    If you are interested in reading the other posts, best way to find them is to go to the archive blog website Rossi Blog Reader (rossilivecat.com) where the search function actually works. Search “LarryG” and they will be in the list.

    Obviously that is all fake news, unworthy of any reaction. Whoever says he has an Ecat in his hands is an impostor. We never delivered any model of Ecat to anybody and the Ecats in operation are all completely under our control.

    Hello DR Rossi

    What strategies have you
    and your team come up with
    to get to one million in sales?

    Regards
    Sam

  • I want to inform he that a troll in internet keep continuously to say in many different sites that many years ago he tried for a full day a one real E-Cat and did not work. He say also that he opened comptetely the E-Cat and it was practically empty. He say also that one of your collaborators gives the that E-Cat to him and so every of his story is not invented. It is possible??? I don’t think that it is possible, not even remotely: the E-Cat is an revolutionary invention and only a stupid would you give a revolutionary invention to a completely stranger for a full day! We know that you doctor Rossi isn’t a stupid… but trolls continue say that.

    My best regards,,

  • Andrea Rossi

    Hans:
    Absolutely yes ! You gave me an idea: when we will start the deliveries, we will communicate here the fact that we are starting to deliver, and at that point all the buyers of the Ecat SKLep will be allowed to visit our closest center to decide if to proceed with the order or cancel it; besides, being the payment made by Paypal, every Client will have 2 months of time to be reimbursed giving back the SKLep if it did not perform as guaranteed, at the condition that it has not been broken.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Hans

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi:
    I am one of your Clients that sent a pre-order for the Ecat SKLep.
    One question: when you will communicate to me that you are ready to deliver, will it be possible to come in a facility of yours to test the apparatus I ordered before you deliver ?
    Thank you,
    Hans, from Germany

  • Andrea Rossi

    Enzo Amato:
    I sympathize with you.
    Do not worry, it is not and will not be asymptotical.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Enzo Amato

    Salve Andrea,
    l’ondata degli ordini sembra scemare. Se continua in modo asintotico potrebbe trascorrere un’eternità fino al raggiunhimento del milione di unità.
    Se spedisse per esempio 500 unità a clienti scelti, ecco che come conseguenza in un attimo avrebbe milioni di ordini (sempre che il suo sistema funzioni: avvocato del diavolo 😊). Francamente non vedo dove sia il problema.

    Hi Andrea,
    the wave of orders seems to be waning. If it continues asymptotically it could take forever until the million units are reached.
    If you were to ship for example 500 units to selected customers, you would have millions of orders in no time (if your system works: devil’s advocate 😊).

    Frankly, I don’t see where the problem is.
    Greetings.

  • Dear Dr Rossi, will you be supplying certificates on the material used in the Ecat’s are safe. e.g. are the materials flammable or do not give off toxic fumes if burnt etc. I am sure there are some international standards that must be followed.

    Thank you

  • DrLG

    Dear @ItalioR

    Please see my previous post time stamp 2022-01-07 13:27 and Dr. Rossi’s response, under my previous nom de plume of LarryG

    Dr. Rossi confirmed a 100K to 300K per month production rate.

    So the answer to your quest is very probably more than 4 months. If we speculate a production ramp per month of 100K, 200K, 300K, 300K, with 100K in the last month, this is 4 months 10 days.

    I believe in another post Dr. Rossi at least hinted that he hopes to get new orders at a rate fast enough so he can keep the production line going at 300K per month.

    Please also refer back to my 2011-01-21 01:31 post that used available power usage and power usage growth data that shows production has to be 2-3 orders of magnitude higher to make any real dent in world energy consumption.

    Dear Andrea

    1. Is the safety certification for the ecat sklep presently limited to stationary applications?

    2. Are marine applications allowed?

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi,
    After you will reach 1 million orders, how much time you will need to start the manufacturing of the Ecat SKLed ?

  • Alessandro Coppi

    Hi Andrea,
    you are ready with a product that will change the world of energy sources, and it is blocked because there is a few million dollars of uncertain pre-orders missing, such a large business should be approached with professional financial support of the highest level.
    Time is not a free variable, every late day counts millions in business. If you are confident, as is obvious, in the effectiveness of E-CAT SK LEP, there is absolutely no risk in the operation, as a last resort, you could search on a crowdfunding platform and you will find any funds you need, and starting now!

    best regards
    Alessandro Coppi

    Dear Dr. Rossi,
    Outsourcing will certainly allow a high production speed, especially if used simultaneously in different countries.
    How long do you think it will take to produce 1 million pieces in total using all the planned production activities?
    1 – less than 1 month
    2 – between 1 and 4 months
    3 – more than 4 months

    Kind Regards,
    Italo R.

    Dear Andrea

    I found this paper that maybe if interest for people in your team:

    https://arxiv.org/abs/1604.07557

    More generally quantum entropy (entropy, negentropy entropy over lap ) , entanglement and information physics theory seem to go hand in hand at these micro scales. I wonder if you have considered it. It might bring some interesting insights.

    Thanks and Best Regards

    Dear Andrea
    Starting production of a completely new product is a big challenge.
    I advise you not to start mass production until the following are in place:

    1. All deliveries of raw materials and special components are secured.
    2. All production equipment has been procured.
    3. All training of personnel has been completed.
    4. The product has been thoroughly tested by such customer groups who will use them.
    5. After-sales service has been established.

    This takes time, but all short cuts will be punished.
    Sincerely, Svein H. Vormedal

    Dear Andrea,

    Not to say that potential pirating of your invention isn’t a serious concern but if someone does make a product based on your design / invention they will truly be copy “Cats”!!

    I can’t wait (but I guess I have to) until I receive the SKLep I ordered. Continued good luck on all your current and future endeavors.

    Sincerely,

    Dear Dr. Rossi: I wish you only the best in your effort to bring this new energy source to the world. I noticed that the rate of new orders has started to diminish lately. It has been a while since your popular demonstration. It is human nature to lose interest over time. Perhaps you could post some new photographs of the ECat SKLep, powering various things or in various configurations with inverters attached to them, on your website, to rekindle new interest. I agree that you don’t need another demonstration, but it wouldn’t hurt to show some photos to reignite the excitement that you deserve.

    Dear Andrea,

    I have been a long time follower and supporter. II understand the benefits of economies of scale however I do find it hard to understand your persistence that you won’t start deliveries till you get to 1,000,000 orders if you currently have close to 800,000. Firstly the economies of scale are not that different from 800,000 to 1,000,0000. Secondly when you start delivering the Ecats, if they work well, then sales will definitely rise very rapidly. People who have them will tell their friends, neighbours, family. Others will see positive reviews and feel the confidence to order. I’m sure this is a common perception amongst your followers such that most won’t understand this delay and question the true reasons. If you have close to 800,000 orders now you will easily get to over 1,000,000 soon after starting delivering of the ecats, ( assuming they work well ). If you are capable of commencing mass production then the longer you wait to get to 1,000,000 orders the more people will start to loose confidence in regards to your product. I sense there is an increasing level of frustration amongst your followers. You have answered to similar comments in the past that you need to get to 1,000,000 orders so I don’t really need a reply. I just wanted to make it clear to you that most people won’t understand this logic and question it.
