Hi again,

This post is only directed to those of you that have chosen to acknowledge the AR technology as one of the many successful LENR technologies mushrooming on our planet these days.
(To the sceptical ones, we already know about your doubts, and any repetition of your sceptical attitudes is totally unneccessary, we are as said well informed about your standpoint.)

To those of you not subscribing to any news from the ECAT.com,  I just wanted to share an update I got today, presenting info about the present progress:

Quote
  Leonardo Corp and Andrea Rossi is currently working on a new reactor type with
  specifications far better than the previous versions of E-Cat.

  The canonical improvement is that the new E-Cat is now working stably at much higher
  temperatures than previously achieved.
 
  These temperatures allows for a vast number of electricity solutions at 40%+ gross heat-to-power
  efficiencies and 25%+ net efficiencies taking into account the power used by the process.
  The design allows for merely any heat transferring media including water/steam, heat-transferring-oils,
  molten salts but also hot air.

  The high temperature E-Cat reactor currently in test also opens up for applications with Sterling Engines.
 
  The new reactor is smaller in size and has a charge of 1.5 grams and more shielding than the original reactor.
  The new progress also gives the possibility to increase the COP for industrial applications.

  Currently a one month long E-Cat test is in progress as part of the new development process.

Yeah... I am not comfortable with that statement, it's too all-encompassing.  What specifically are they going to do because you can't do all of them in one shot.

QuoteThe new reactor is smaller in size and has a charge of 1.5 grams and more shielding than the original reactor.

Yeah again.... We all remember when Riossi was interviewed buy the guy from the Nuclear Regulatory Agency, (I think?) that Rossi claimed that there were no forms of radioactivity emitted by the device.  So that remains an unresolved problem.

What we need is a preliminary spec sheet for a home E-Cat.

@Gwandau:
Great news report, my friend 

Thank you for your persistence and also your words of wisdom you left for the "skeptical ones"    I highlighted them when I quoted your posting as to add emphasis on your straightforward and enlightening message. 

And to those who are tempted; PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS.  THAT WILL JUST PROLONG THEIR STAY HERE (PLEASE REFER TO  REPLY #1152).

@Everyone:
Contrary to false rumors (propaganda) started here in this thread, the 1MW plants/units are still being sold and built to this day:

Andrea Rossi

Dear Avi:

The 1 MW plants are already for sale and in construction. As for the domestic E-Cats we must wait for the certificator’s requirements.

The timing does not depend on us, but we have already committed the production lines.

Warm Regards,
A.R.

News about the 1MW unit sold to the military customer:

Andrea Rossi
May 13th, 2012 at 8:03 AM

Dear Pietro F.:

I have been authorized to give the following information.
The 1 MW plant has been delivered and is working in a military concern.

...and concerning the home E-Cats:

We are working very much and very hard to be as fast as possible. For the domestic E-Cats we have the necessity of the certification made. The industrial plants will get the necessary certification within weeks.

Warm Regards,
A.R.

Here Rossi announces the plans by the Trust that owns Leonardo Corp. on where they will be producing their products initially:

Dear Frank Acland:

Thank you for the information: your inteeview has been very useful.

I have just an adjournment: the production will be focused on the USA alone, for the first years. This has been decided in a meeting of today of the Trust that owns Leonardo Corp with me, as the CEO of Leonardo.

Warm Regards,
A.R.

It appears this thread is not the only source of false information being spread in order to try and stop Mr. Rossi and notice how their choice of subject matter and spin is ALMOST IDENTICLE:

Andrea Rossi

Dear Antonella, Dear Giovanni Guerrini:

The false statements contained in the answer that the Italian Government guy ( a deputy minister !!!) has given are a clear signal. If you analyse the language and compare the evident lack of specific information of this guy with the arrogance of his conclusions ( for example: “the patent will not be granted in Europe”, and he knows nothing of the pending patents, or ” Rossi in some occasion said his apparatus emits radiations, in other occasions said the contrary”, which is false because I always said that no radiations are emitted to the external of the apparatuses from the E-Cats, and I always said that the low level gamma rays inside the E-Cat are turned into heat) and compare the arrogance of the statements with the evident lack of information,as I was saying, the signal is clear: lobbies bound to the government have acted. Add the fact that a person, financed by the taxpayer, is blowing on the fire to try to stop us to promote more public funding to state owned compamies that produced only chatters in 20 years of work, shake the all and the resulting cocktail is: better we stay away from there, if I want not to get stuck in the mud. We will sell in Italy our production, but will work safe in the USA and, probably, in Sweden, where we are organizing a strong organization.

Warm Regards,
A.R.

...and finally, the work ethic without government funding (like the BILLIONS hot fusion receives):

Andrea Rossi
May 15th, 2012 at 9:24 AM

Dear Giovanni Guerrini,

We work hard on it, not less than 16 hours per day. The work is going well, without money from any taxpayer…

Warm Regards,
A.R.

It's comical how you seemingly are playing Spy vs. Spy with me like you are right out of Mad Magazine.

Meanwhile, a link:

http://ecat.com/news/news-update-from-andrea-rossi-and-ecat-com-in-may

QuoteECAT 1 MW Updates One ECAT 1 MW plant has been delivered and is working in a military facility. Andrea Rossi recently made the following statement:

“The 1 MW plant has been delivered and is working in a military concern.

It has been made in the USA, after the October test of the prototype made in Italy; such prototype will be delivered, with the modifications which we will complete based on what we learnt from the model at work, to a European Customer in July. ”

The ECAT 1 MW plant in USA is now stable at very high temperatures.
The industrial plants will get the necessary certification within weeks.
The price for an E-Cat 1 MW plant is still $1.5M; orders can be made from the inquiry form on the right side at this website.
I remember distinctly how everyone was excited and waiting for news that the 1MW E-Cat container in Italy was going to ship to an unknown military customer in the US.

But apparently now we have a mysterious factory in the USA that made it!  Astonishing!  Remember the report of the interview with the agent from the Nuclear Regulatory Agency in Florida.  Didn't Rossi tell the agent that there was no factory in the US and there were no emissions?

So what do you have?  The 1MW E-Cat is probably still sitting on the ground in Italy and we have to "work hard to imagine" that an imaginary factory in the USA that nobody knows anything about built a 1MW E-Cat and shipped it to the US military just because "Rossi says."

It still doesn't smell right.
