I just changed my pre-order from 30 SKLep 100W units to 360 Mini-SKLep units. My system design will use stacks of 12 Mini-sklep units, each stack producing 120 W of 12 VDC power. Three of these stacks will be serial connected to produce 36 VDC of 360 W of electrical power. This output will drive an Enphase microinverter. A total of 10 microinverters will output approximately 3.6 kW into the Grid. The Grid will power small AC/DC power adapters that will furnish 12 VDC to the input of the Mini-SKLep units.
About the hot fusion stuff: I am surprised they didn’t provide a realistic, fully costed, price per kWh for the power they generated (!) Since the fully costed denominator is substantially negative, does that mean that the answer would be much greater than infinity?
A note from a Harvard source, in an article titled “Why nuclear fusion is so exciting”: “In this case, there was more energy released from the reaction than in the photons in the light that went into compressing and heating this capsule. But if you look at the electrical energy that was used to drive the lasers to produce that light, that was vastly more than the energy released in the reaction, and if you imagine trying to build an actual power plant, then you would have to take the heat and the neutrons that were released from this reaction and use them to make steam, and use that steam to power turbines. …… So you would need several hundred-fold larger increases in output of the reaction for it to be actually net positive when you look at the whole system.”
The many articles about a “fusion energy breakthrough” is an important development for psychological reasons, more than for economic or scientific reasons. While commercial fusion energy is still a distant dream, humanity is increasingly ready to accept a “breakthrough” in energy.
Remember when you said that Fleishman and Pons led you to believe that some kind of energy system was possible? I take the discussion of fusion to be planting the idea into people’s minds..that a new kind of energy is possible…(and it is not just strange people like me who are saying it.)
People are more ready to see that the E-cat exists.
Dear Andrea
If an SKL 10 is equipped with an LED lamp, possibly also a small accumulator, will we then get a cable-independent light point?
This will be an inexpensive light point, as local wiring is usually more expensive than the lamp.
All housing, industry and business have a great need for this.
Kind regards: Svein H. Vormedal.
@Michael,
You are right. Not to mention the radiation dangers: they fool people saying that the hot nuclear fusion is safe because makes use of hydrogen turned into helium, not radioactive materials, but forget to say that when hydrogen atoms form helium atoms the radiations that are generated make radioactive anything around, which means to turn thousands of tonns of normal materials into highly radioactive wastes; another issue that is gladly covered to continue to get funds is what can happen if a fusion reactor explodes: while fission power plants work with the fission of atoms and in the worst case can cause a tragedy like the one of Chernobyl, what can happen if explodes a fusion reactor, that practically acts on the same principle of an atomic bomb ? Luckily, this technology will never reach any kind of utilization, as all the persons that have knowledge of this matter well know. Last consideration: these press conferences for these kind of experimental plants happen only when funding renewals are necessary.
Wilhelm
Hot fusion is senseless. In Germany the costs just for transportation of one kwh is 12 ct! Plus profit and administration costs. If the ecat will work NO ONE needs a grid anymore. No company, no private citizen, no school..
The energy companies will crash or they will be saved by their puppets in the politics. But the question is how the politics can print still more money than now? e.g. they can stop spending in arming and in wars.
But just if the people vote better politicians.
Anyways, the sooner the ecat come to the market the better.
Michael
Dr Rossi:
The Ecat SKLep working gridless is far more important than the nuclear fusion presented today, that after 30 billion $ of funding in forty years of R&D has produced an experiment with a duration of 1 billionth of second, and the experiment had to be stopped immediately- pardon, after 1 billionth of second- because the magnetic fields became unstable: what have dubbed a triumph has been in effect a failure.
Please make asap the presentation in grand style of the Ecat SKLep gridless.
With all my support,

With the appearance of an energy source that needs no external inputs, it will be interesting to see how those currently supplying energy at retail – often governments – will respond to customers no longer needing their energy services.
In the private sector, if demand disappears no one is expected to help bail out the owners of the obselete companies. Will we see governments swallow their losses? Or will governments treat themselves differently from the way they always (correctly) treat obselete entities in the private sector?
Proposal: You do not need to tell us numbers and assuming you know how many ecat each “buyer” has booked you could do this.
Foreword: If all little buyers (the one that ordered one or two, just to see if it works) double the amount (so, go to two or four) then we will reach the 1M units. Send an Email to the “little people” asking if they agree, just to be sure….
I am one that booked one ecat to see if it works and I could have two just to finally clear up the matter
Dr Rossi
I saw a very interesting post on ECW which suggests that if you increase the cost of the miniSKLEP by (1 000 000 / Existing No. Pre-orders) you could still reach your target financial return on investment
Eg. If existing pre-orders = 800000,say, then raise price by 25%, eg from say $25 to $31.25
I think most customers would be prepared to spend a proportion more so you could actually start delivering this important product
Thank you if you can comment

“Worldwide production of aluminum in 2010 was 41.4 million tonnes. Using the figures above this means that 621 billion kilowatt hours of electrical energy were used in the production of aluminum.”
Assuming you were to capture 10% of that marketplace, it would require the annual generation of 62 billion kW-hrs. As there are 8,760 hours in a year, the required electrical output would be about 7 million kW of electricity. This alone would require 700 million Mini-SKLep units, assuming continuous Aluminum production operation.
Congratulations white the decoupled grid EcatSKL10, together with the EcatSKLep100 they are the biggest 2 steps this century.
It would be very nice if the EcatSKLep100 could also work without a grid connection.
But if that is not yet possible, could the EcatSKLep10 activate the 10 EcatSKLep100 units?
Good morning Dr. Rossi
I am very excited about the news of self-sustainable off-grid ecat.
I can’t wait to see them streamed side by side, however on plexiglass and not attached to anything.

The next video to be streamed on youtube should be a lamp powered by the new self-sustaining version of Ecat.
A lighted lamp without any external power supply.
Orders should skyrocket if you make this video!

If the Mini-SKLep that does not require a Grid tie or neutral connection to the Grid works, may we assume such a Mini-SKLep will properly function when driven by a power supply tied to the Grid or Neutral tied to the Grid?

Dear Andrea Rossi,
Is there any news about development(s) with the SKL-1KW or SKL-2KW (or similar designations)?
You have been busy developing/demonstrating the SKL-10 and SKL-100 units.
It is getting close to the end of the year.
For those of us who would like an integer number of Kilowatt SKLeps, will the SKL-1KW or SKL-2KW models be available in the near future?
