Dr. Rossi,
at home I have an alarm clock, one of those that projects the time on the ceiling, which is connected to the network, but internally it has an AAA battery that allows it to keep the time even in the event of a power failure.
This is how I imagine the E-Cat, that is, connected to the network, if this possibility is available, instead it uses a battery that can be removed and replaced by the user if you are in remote places without power.
In my future camper I imagine that the E-Cat will be connected to the vehicle’s battery and it will be the same in all EVs.
In any case, having to use a small rechargeable and easily replaceable battery will not be a problem

“12 or 220 or 110 for few seconds are enough to start the Ecat, whatever the source.”
Clarifications –
1. Is that to say the starting voltage must match the output voltage of the NGU device?
2. 12VDC for a 12VDC NGU device output?
3. 110 VAC for a 110 VAC NGU device output?
4. 220 VAC for a 220 VAC NGU device output?
Thomas Florek:
Yes, I play regularly tennis with my wife and make 1 hour of jogging every day. It is important for my health and my health is important (so far) for the Ecat

“without the battery the Ecat must be connected to the grid for few seconds at the start. The battery is necessary only if the Ecat is used in sites that do not have grid connections.”
Since the eCat NGU outputs DC, does that mean without a battery, a 12 VDC input applied for a few seconds would power up the NGU? Please clarify.
Hi Andrea, It’s been a long time since I’ve heard anything about your tennis activity. Do you still play tennis? Have you switched to pickle-ball? Do you still have a regular daily exercise routine?

There’s a lot of talk about the battery used to supply initial startup power for the E-CAT, I had often thought this must be the case to allow for turning the system on and off.
Does the startup voltage need to be constant? If not would a small capacitor not do the job for the few seconds needed to reboot the E-Cat? It seems this could be charged during operation and discharged just for the first few seconds when turned on.
To put the recent 40% price increase of the Ecat into perspective: With an expected operational lifespan of 100k hours, the lifetime output for the 10kw version is 1,000,000 kWh. At the average cost of electricity in the US (16 cents per kWh), that equals $160,000 worth of electricity for $35,000. This implies a return of 4.5 times your investment. Put another way, the Ecat will produce electricity for 3.5 cents/kWh.
Dear Dr. Rossi
Now that you have a battery in each NGU module, my previous suggestion may be more interest to you…
Cascade the power for your larger power modules…small battery to drive a smaller NGU at startup, then that NGU power up all the other NGU units in the module.
Then you only have one small battery for every NGU size, but economics/form factor probably drive the final decision (NGU vs battery costs and size)
In cases like these, the ideal regulation would be proportional, not ON/OFF.
That is to say, once a set-point value is established (for example, 60°C), the system should automatically adjust the output current from the NGU generator, which would remain always ON but at a variable power, according to the heat requirement to maintain the temperature around the set-point value.
A subsequent refinement could involve adding Integral and Derivative control actions to ensure perfect and rapid alignment between temperature and set-point without any deviation.
All of this could be achieved with a P-I-D controller that receives input from a temperature sensor in the water, and appropriately commands the NGU’s output.
However, it is necessary to ask Dr. Rossi if the NGU can accept an external electrical command signal to modulate the power output of the generator.
Hello Dr. Rossi
Could you tell us a few words about the research directions you are conducting this year?
I suggest you work on the nomadic aspect of the E-Cat
I wish you record sales for this year
Kind regards
Raffaele
I have a water tank (1500l) in my house’s heating system. I would like to replace the existing wood stove with the 3KW NGU generator. This should heat the water with a 3kW cartridge. Sensors record the stratification of the warm water.
To do this, the NGU must be switched on and off by a control system (in-house development).
My question: Does switching the device on and off have an effect on the expected life time of 100,000 hours?
Dr Rossi,
The reverse difference of entropy that is at the base of your Ecat’s theory is due to the self organizing Zitterbewegung electrons phase in vacuum.
Where can I find more detailed description of this phenomenon ?
Thank you if you can answer,
Igor
Steven Nicholes Karels:
1. The kind of battery depends on the power of the assembly, for high powers the system is more complex, but in all cases their duty will last few seconds and only at the start.
2. No
Warm Regards,
A.R.
Steve D:
Premise: the battery will supply energy only for few seconds at the start of the Ecat. If the Ecat will never be turned off the battery will never be returned on after the start.
Answers:
1- Depends on the power of the assembly
2- see point 1
3- see point 1
4- see point 1
5- without the battery the Ecat must be connected to the grid for few seconds at the start. The battery is necessary only if the Ecat is used in sites that do not have grid connections
Warm Regards,
A.R.
Calle H:
Sorry, I answered D thinking to the assemblies which will be most requested. My Fault. For smaller powers will be used AAA, AA and A types. The body design and dimensions are already in the process to be modified by our Partner, probably also the dimensions will be subject to some variation, although not substantial.
Warm Regards,
A.R.
Dear Dr. Rossi,
A follow-up question to your reply to Frank Acland about the battery used is of D type (33.2 mm diameter and 61.5 mm height). How does this fit with the 10W NGU dimensions 60 mm diameter and 30 mm height?
Kind regards,
Calle H
2) for large multiple ecat installations that might rarely shut down, will the battery be excluded in deference to a common (grid) power activation drive?
3) if 2) is Yes, what total power rating would qualify to exclude the battery?
4) do you have common drive equipment developed for this scenario? Starting at how many watts?
5) does the ecat without a battery have a dedicated input for activation?
1. Is there one battery included with
1a, The NGU 10W Power Cell
1b, the 100W Basic Generator
1c, the 1kW NGU Power Generator
1d, the 2kW NGU Power Generator
1e, the 3kW NGU Power Generator
1f, the 5kW NGU Power Generator
1g, the 10kW NGU Power Generator
and
1h, the 1 or 2 MW Plant?
2. Are all batteries identical for the different models or systems?
Steven Nicholes Karels:
1. only when you turn on the Ecat , for few seconds
2. the battery works only when the Ecat is turned on
3. no
4. yes
Warm Regards,
A.R.
1. Is the battery only required when you manually turn the On/Off switch to the On position?
2. If the On/Off switch is in the On position, and the NGU unit stops working, say vibration or shock causes a loss of performance, will the NGU unit restart assuming the battery is functional?
3. Is battery terminal corrosion as issue?
4. Is a Battery Management System (BMS) incorporated into the NGU, so as to not overcharge the battery?
Ernesto Seligardi:
I think it will last the lifespan of the Ecat, but its duration depends on how many times per day the user switches on and off the Ecat; anyway there is a battery housing easy to access,
Warm Regards,
A.R.
Franz:
The battery will be activated for several seconds anytime the Ecat is started and it is reacharged by the Ecat itself. I think it will last years, if not it will be easy to change, being a battery normally in commerce, we bought them by Amazon at a price of 4 $.
Warm Regards,
A.R.
Dear Dr. Rossi,
about the battery in the ecat:
1) I reckon it is an accumulator?
2) Of course it will not last 10 years or more if i use the ecat just a few month in a year. Can i replace the battery on my own?
Best regards
Franz
Dear Andrea Rossi
Your answers to Calle and Larry G have confused me a bit. You have now confirmed that there is a small battery inside the NGU ecat. But any battery, whatever it is, rarely lasts ten years, which is the life expectancy of your creation. Does this mean that we will have to replace the battery when it is exhausted or no longer efficient? Is there a battery housing that can be accessed from the outside to replace it? Can you clarify how we should behave? Thanks.
Dear Dr. Rossi:
You responded to Calle H. that yes, there is a battery incorporated into the NGU to supply the initial startup power for the NGU. Can you help me understand what has changed now vs https://www.journal-of-nuclear-physics.com/?p=892&cpage=704#comment-1593772 when I asked about “my speculation that a SSM version will need a small amount of power during startup (initial “ignition” ) , for instance, by a “tiny” battery or solar panel before the output from the SKLep is available for the SSM loop?” and you responded https://www.journal-of-nuclear-physics.com/?p=892&cpage=704#comment-1593790 “no”? Did the SKLep not need this internal battery but the NGU does need it?

Hi Andrea,
I was not surprised to hear of the need of a starting energy source for the initiation of the SSM…
Can you tell us approximately how many joules of energy it takes to start the cycle ?
Thanks so much for your work and congratulations on finding a manufacturer…
